My wife likes to use the tv which means I need a special helmet that I can spend hundreds on and wear so that when I'm sitting next to her on the couch I can't see or hear her.

Yeah, I also think the simple act of having to strap something to your face is going to be a bigger turnoff than serious gamers anticipate; the willingness to shut out the entire outside world for the sake of gaming is by no means universal. That said, in PSVR's favor is the way it makes an absolutely killer demo- almost everyone who tries one agrees it's the real deal. It works, it works well, and there's a pretty wide range of launch content for it and tie-ins with major franchises. People want to want the PSVR, they just need to get over the cost hump. Comparing it to the printing press or TV is just laughable, though. haveblue fucked around with this message at 01:08 on Oct 3, 2016 |

DF found an indie game that managed native 4k 60fps on ps4 pro. its an rc proam type game. all in all, nothing worth mentioning on its own but they do say that on a 1080p screen the game runs with supersampling to give a huge boost to anti-aliasing. i'd imagine that supersampling is something that is pretty easy to do with the pro developer's tools if a low budget indie game is including it and might even be some automatic process the console just does on its own idk. well here's the otherwise boring video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGQqjVsLXlk

VR can be successful without everyone and their brother buying 3. So many people have built success up to that though, that anything less is going to be seen as a failure.

homeless snail posted:No they don't. Okay what else you got? Uh, well, for one, the printing press was one of the most significant inventions of all time and completely redefined the world by allowing widespread distribution of concepts and ideas and ushered in the era of mass communication? It literally, not hyperbolic ally, redefined the world. Going "I bet VR will be like the printing press" shows an absolutely absurd ignorance about what the printing press actually did. Like unironically comparing VR to the Printing Press means the onus is on you to actually back up a claim that loving ridiculous. So, again, why don't you actually explain what VR will do instead of going "it has a lot of potential!" What will VR do to redefine human civilization in the way that the printing press, television, radio and the internet have? ImpAtom fucked around with this message at 02:02 on Oct 3, 2016 |

homeless snail posted:Were radio, television, and the internet not similarly transformative? The history of media is a succession of new ways to communicate ideas, and VR is just another means to that end. Not better than, just new, different, and with its own unique set of strengths and weaknesses. Like any other form of media. Sorry if you're a big fan of Gutenberg and I hit a nerve. Do you not actually get that all of those things were significant not just because they were 'new' but because they actually has a significant transformative effect on the world? Radio was an instantaneous long-range form of communication and allowed large-scale oral communication on a level never before available. Television brought visuals to that and in doing so completely changed how the world interacted. The internet doesn't even need to be explained with how large and significant an impact it had on the world.

homeless snail posted:Okay... Now imagine this same paragraph but instead of VR you're in the 1920s and you're talking about television. ... Okay? I am? It was very easy to see how television would become a significant factor in the world. Literally all you need to do is say "the large-scale instant transmission of visual images on a country or even global scale." People keep going "Well, people laughed at television" but y'know, a lot of people didn't laugh at television also because it's easy to understand why it was a significant thing. What does VR do? You keep dodging this question. It absolutely has potential for entertainment or medical or military uses but how do you see it redefining the world and becoming a significant factor in the life of almost everyone on the planet?

VR could have huge potential. Probably not psvr or oculus or vive but vr as a concept? 10 years down the road? It could have a huge effect on the entertainment and professional world. The current headsets probably won't do much outside of play some games and some other gimmicky applications but VR is gonna be a game changer.

Super No Vacancy posted:imagine thinking virtual reality is waggle PSVR will probably flop but until then I can play robot golf and Rez and rear end in a top hat bar game simulator so that's at least a start. It's mainly poo poo tech demos but for what it's worth Sony seems to have muscled a few companies into making halfway games to go along with the tech demos. As usual they'll probably just be delayed to "never" instead. I guess the Vive and Oculus crew are finally getting 'regular' games but so far they still look like stuff nobody would play if they didn't shoehorn them into VR. Maybe there is something better by now but the VR thread is primarily hardware talk so I have no loving clue what people are actually playing

VR is sort of at an uncanny valley point. As long as your brain knows it's fake, it won't feel right. As soon as something weird happens, ie: you see pixels, or weird movement, or just feeling claustrophobic with a helmet on, you are pulled out of the experience. The technology is just not there yet. We are probably a number of iterations away from something that is actually good.
