idiosyncratic things, mostly: I get motion sickness very easily. my eyes are bad and not getting better. I get headaches. I have pretty garbage awareness of my surroundings in the best of circumstances and derive no pleasure from that. visual immersion or whatever does not rate as a plus for me. if a magic future VR environment existed whereby I experienced a seamless, painless, easy disconnect from reality my reaction would be terror. my desires do not work in a way where I would ever look at the weird headset sitting next to me and think to myself ātime to play the video games that use this thing,ā and then strap it onto my face. I want to be able to take a sip of water while Iām dialed into my entertainment sphere without feeling like I just Ruined The Experience. I donāt even want an experience to ruin, actually. I pause frequently. most of the time Iām playing something Iām listening to something in the background or Iām idly alt-tabbing out of it to do nothing because my brain doesnāt work anymore. I just could not think of anything further from what I want out of a video game than VR.
a sequel to frame gride, maybe?
Ace Combat 7 looks like a delicious mashup of the PS2 games + Electrosphere and that is all I need
Seconded, and it is (kinda?) confirmed for 2017 => thatās gonna be day1 purchase.
Nier2: Day1
Persona5: ā¦ā¦ tbh, two years ago Iād have been all yeah, Day1 purchase, but I think that the window for this release has passed. Might buy, but seems a bit unlikely atm.
That Detroit-game for PS4 will also be trainwreck-day1 material, or so I hope!
ā¦ā¦ā¦ and Iām forgetting something huge (not AAA-wise, but what I absolutely will buy/play) atm.
iād only ever use VR for combat flight sims, because in an alternate life i would love to fly P-51s over europe and whatnot
VR + IL-2 Battle of Stalingrad = $_$
thanks, this is a good Radiator article.
Heās really talking about how to foster an art-friendly VR scene, and not turn it into a replica of Steam. At the same time, for as poisonous as Steam can be, it gave artsy indie projects their first chance at success ā Steamās just not solved the problem of harassment and conformity every other social platform has. Sure, itch is great, and a great community, but even if thereās a healthy artsy VR scene there, youāll still need to engage with Steam to make the bulk of sales.
Art funding is great and Iām hopeful but Seattle has two independent papers and a big conservative one and none of them see fit to cover games in the arts section, even after we have a permanent museum exhibit dedicated to indie games. Weāve got a long road, but I guess like all patronage art itās going to be a small nervous game of grants.
also he shows LUNE and LUNE is the best VR game bar none ā VR nonphotorealistic rendering is strapping on some alien creatureās eyes. Itās incredible.

virtua fighter 6 has to happen right?
resident evil 7 (still would prefer a further iteration of direct-to-video action evil, but this actually sounds interesting despite how derivative and youtuber click bait it seemed when announced)
oh, nidhogg 2! kinda love the weird mid-'90s ms dos game look
holy shit this is hard to look at
Is it the head movement on a big screen? Quick head movement can be nausea-inducing on a large monitor not strapped to your face.
My favorite is the color/texture of the space-foil at 1:50; the natural thing to do is make a blanket fort out of it, protected from the stars
maybe, yeah
gave me the sort of low-level headache i get from sitting on a bus at a red light. (vibrations and whatnot, yāknow)
Iām playing through Gravity Rush now andā¦ I like most of it that isnāt the gameplay, which at this point feels really thin. Itās not bad and Iām happy to see the concept/world get another shot, but mainly to see if they can take a big step up rather than just revisit what they already accomplished.
Thatās a long way for me to say Gravity Rush 2ā¦ idk maybe.
yeah I have to say for as lovely as it looks I am a little skeptical the combat will hold up
noted. how recently did you play it??
P5
Gran Turismo Sport, maybe?
I have literally no idea what games even come out anymore
Mecha or sci-fi Souls sounded neat, but now thatās just too good for this world.
And this reminds me Iāve never checked out the Escaflowne game for the PS1.
I played STRAFE two weeks ago. Itās not inconceivable that the gamefeel and balance will fall into place by the time it is released. The worst case scenario is that it is a slightly worse first-person Teleglitch, but if it had a bit of extra time and a Tim consult or two it could easily meet expectations.
Day 1 viewing of Super Best Friends playthrough, guaranteed
