Is random chat free on Otrigal?

Yes for core matching. Premium plans add optional filters.

Is this random stranger chat only video?

No. Use video or text, both are first-class random chat modes. Violations may lead to restrictions or bans; Otrigal may suspend or terminate access for policy violations.

Do I need to create an account first?

No. You can start chatting immediately. An account is only useful for managing a subscription or saving preferences later.

Can I switch between video and text mid-session?

You can switch modes between matches. Within a single match you stay in the mode you started, then choose again on the next connection.

Not exactly. Chat rooms often hold many people at once. Otrigal random chat matches you with one person at a time for a private conversation.

What happens if I report someone?

Reports go into moderation review and can lead to warnings, restrictions, or bans depending on severity. Otrigal may suspend or terminate access for policy violations.
