Well, I don't mind as much as I'm sure it will bite them a bit and they'll recognize exclusivity as the toxic it is. Especially since VR isn't all that big yet.

Knifegrab posted:Its hard to say, I'm sure we all have opinions about it but what are the sales saying to Oculus? Surely its been profitable because it seems they are still reaching out to more and more studios for these exclusivity offerings. Incredibly lovely and disappointing. The exclusivity deal is going to take long while before it starts actually making a markedable trend in their profit margin, it is too early for them to learn and understand exactly how badly this fucks them up, and because gamers are such lovely consumers, they will be led to believe this is a positive trend for a while.

Lemming posted:It's smooth for me. I have a 970. I can't really run Chrome in the background and I have to turn the resolution down to 720p and some of the settings to medium, but if I do that it's fine. I got judder every so often in the Vive but with the Rift it's smooth. That's an odd definition of "smooth" if I ever read one and it makes me consider your posts thereafter. I get that you refer to fps, but that seems like quite a bit of a sacrifice to achieve that.

theBeaz posted:Everyone is doing such a good job ignoring them but since they keep trying to press their agenda here I just had to respond: Naw, this is the Rift thread, because it's pretty nasty to read this thread if you own a Vive. You are basically told you are self-entitled douche, even when you just want to talk about what is actually going on in the industry and people would rather ignore the current standing for what-might-bes, because that is all the rift has going for it. Maybe at some point, when cooler heads prevail can the threads consolidate, but as it is, it's pretty rough to be excited about VR if you're just spending time talking about how your choice of HMD is going to one day be made inferior, just you wait.

It's a jest. But you are just being extremely and oddly defensive about the Oculus Rift to the point where it looks almost like you are shilling for their product against any type of criticism. Like really, even not acknowledging the products current shortcomings. Really, which is more insane in that context?

They haven't used Gamebryo since Skyrim, Bethesda are just that bad at coding their own poo poo. The oddness with the game engine was never Gamebryo's fault. It was all Bethesda and their lovely programmers.

El Grillo posted:I thought Creation was just the next iteration of Gamebryo? Still has plasticine faces etc. Literally has nothing to do with the game engine! That has everything to do with their normal maps and the render they use. Which used to be a part of gamebryo, but isn't really. A game engine runs scripts, sends projects to the render and handles such operations as binding keys to actions, sorting data for saving and issues compression, which isn't handled directly by the engine itself. Gamebryo was a package that offered a lot of these things for free in a package deal, but the engine itself wasn't bad, it is in fact pretty impressive, but the developers at bethesda of course learned how to script their stuff from what they alread knew, so on the surface an entirely new engine is just going to move the same parts, just a bit differently. Things like walking diagonally wasn't easy for gamebryo to handle because of the way it interpreted keypresses, and it was only kind of added in Skyrim by re-writing the entire movement code.

Yes, but none of that is Gamebryo. That's just Bethesda. The same console commands that work in Oblivion doesn't work in loving Civilization IV. They are both Gamebryo games. The engine isn't related. I don't want to be held responsible for people misattributing the wrong terminology to Bethesda's lovely coding.

Cojawfee posted:I feel like they would have to make an entirely new game in order to add VR in to Fallout. Like the guy mentions in the article. Teleporting completely nullifies the need for a sneak skill. You could sneak across a hallway hoping the raider doesn't see you, or just teleport across the hallway. Unless they make the teleport be really loud and have lots of flashing light to make it very obvious that someone is teleporting around. They are going to have to rework a lot of the game to prevent cheesing everything with VR. Fallout 4 already did away with any pretense to be anything but a shooter already.

It's even worse, it's off on the side because I set it up for when I sit and play games. Also the sound will "spin" as I turn around, which would be highly confusing if I used the audio cues. But if I play a vr game that immersive, I would probably wear headphones. For a game like Hotdogs, Horseshoes and Handgrenades it doesn't matter much.
