Considering how I went bananas when I had my first real job as a 17/18 year old and spent all my money on Dreamcast stuff I'm so glad that I have a wife and kid now that VR is a thing because I would be aaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllll in otherwise, baby.

I actually don't go anywhere without my Rift. VR is the future of technology and the future of gaming. It provides a perfect virtual space to inhabit and conduct my daily life in and it shelters me from the harmful world surrounding my physical body in many ways. I feel safe with the helmet on. I feel protected with the helmet on. The helmet gives me joy and life.

While I agree with your sentiment, I think your concept of the time it will take is a little off since technology advances exponentially.

see though that's the thing: to get to the point where we have great vr tech, like how we have great normal computer game tech right now, we need to go that much exponentially further. otherwise, we're just playing nintendo in an opaque helmet.

after 3 hours of ys 8, game of the month im sad to say the tl for the pre demo section of the game is just as bad. I forgot to screenshot but I've had an instance of a character introducing herself with "My name is Alison. You can just call me Alison"

it's serviceable in that you'll get the plot but characters don't really have distinct voices and feel like they aren't even consistent during a conversation. also any time the game tries to go with a character expressing complex thoughts the tl doesn't hold together. it feels like different people were translating per line because thoughts just don't follow

also the term for magic is fuckin' Energy and im gonna be mad when i find out the jpn script uses the english word Energy

anyways everyone already knew the tl would be bad and soulless but the gameplay owns and has a million collectables to hand in for upgrades for your tiny lizard brain to enjoy

tbh oath in felghana was the best written ys game and actually had some pretty funny dialog even outside of the dub vas just loving around but i played about half of seven lately and on top of burning out on the gameplay the script does just seem a lot more bland so modern ys might just be worse

it was based off a fan tl but they hired one of the people who worked on the fan tl onto the company as an editor and the guy is obsessed with accuracy so i doubt it strayed too far. same guy worked on ys seven's tl, too

it's kind of a bummer that the plot stuff in ys is always really bland cause falcom does have writers who are good at weaving together serious time plot stuff and actually funny and interesting character writing, it's just, that doesn't really happen with ys because it's not a series that can take the time to do it
