New VR Release - The revival of Point & Click?
Kinda tired about discussing this subject everywhere. I think there is enough valid points from professionals stating how this is probably the best thing to happen to VR. Plus, most negative responses have been nothing but baseless accusations, knee-jerk reactions, and trolling.
Viva La Metaverse!
I wonder how fast it took for John Cormack to pack his bags
What do you mean? He’s completely fine with it.
Here’s the 30 minute conference call from the acquisition. Its nothing short of passionate people wanting to make things happen.http://www.shareholder.com/visitors/event/build3/stage/stage.cfm?mediaid=63723&mediauserid=0
VR was never about just playing games, but somehow thats what everyone expected. Every VR cyberpunk thriller in history explains its purpose as a lifestyle. Both interactive entertainment, virtual worlds, multiplayer experiences, pretty much a non-violent MMO in most cases where people chat and share.
So it only makes sense we make that jump now into the progressive future.
In the end, who in the right mind would think Oculus will randomly become a closed platform, include microtransactions, force sign in to facebook and have ads popup? Some people literally think thats what will happen. Most if not all of the complaints are from non-developers (except for notch, but he’s always been the knee-jerk type of person. Plus he’s a total a-hole).Developers on the otherhand see that because of this, their audience increases exponentially. Its a win win.
I withdraw my previous comment
Recently completed: Game of Thrones (decent), Tales from the borderlands (great!), Life is Strange (great!), Stasis (good), Annas Quest (great!); Broken Age (poor)

I was excited about Oculus Rift and I would have bought one the moment it became available for ordinary consumers. But now I’m not so sure I’ll buy it. I don’t care what Mr. Fakebook Sugarmountain says about Oculus, people like that will say anything. Facebook is not to be trusted.

This guy knows whats up.
Good article, again read comments
Thanks for the link, nomadsoul. I’m more than ever convinced that my Kickstarter days are over. I have no problem with crowdfunding in general, just with the Kickstarter version which is based on the goodwill, enthousiasm and generosity of totally powerless backers.
