This Rec Room thing is the most amazing thing i've seen in VR.

 

[Jintor]

Are loafers popular in Japan? All that taking shoes off and putting them on, I think I'd want a shoe I could slide on and off.

crocs are the fucking hugest thing out in the countryside i swear to god

One of the weirdest things about the japanese sense of formality is that, for schools for instance, you have your big assemblies in the school gym which doubles as the hall, so they don't want to damage the floors or whatever so you have special indoor gym shoes (as opposed to the other special indoor shoes you have for the school in general, which is its own bunch of horseshit because you need to have two pairs of shoes for school, personally I never bothered). Anyway, you'll have these really formal occasions like a closing ceremony, parents come, everyone's in suits and nice dresses or whatever and you look down and half the teachers are wearing these fucking plastic crocs.

Someone please protect that child from the horrors of public VR.

Crocs and sandals should be banned

You'll never take my sandals away from me!

Quick Look: The Bunker

Trapped in a bunker with nothing but Alex and a bunch of FMV. In other words... paradise!

Youtube seems to be broken for them. The Bunker video is five mins.

Had to made a thread for Rec Room to get more people to watch, AMAZING!

Damn, VRodeo lived up to the hype, Rec Room is amazing.

 

[Hellsing321]

If you told me 8 years ago that'd I'd be watching Jeff pretend to be an employee at a virtual YMCA I'd have called you crazy. It truly is the best time to be playing video games.

This FMV game has some legit actors. Tony Award nominated and stuff like that.
And from the producers of Black Mass, wtf is going on.

But Jenks won the Tonies in our hearts.

WAIT

I know this dude in that FMV game.

He's on This American Life.

Or maybe he's just in the Hobbit? I don't know.

One of the developers posted a comment on the QL.

Hi everyone, one of the developers here. I just wanted to thank you all for checking out The Bunker and to let you know the price is a little cheaper than what was mentioned. You can pick it up next week for $19.99 with an additional 20% off on launch for PS4 and Xbox One.

That's nice. I think I'm going to jump in.

 

[daydream]

rec room did not disappoint

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Oh shit, the West guys are going to dive into some P5 ? Unprofessional Fridays?

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

I wonder if they'll play more Rec Room on UPF? I'll have my Vive ready in case they do, might be able to get into the same instance. There's some stupid shit in there that I can make sure they see.

It is possible, Alexa over at GS got the game.

I hope so, I need to see more of that fantastic dumb shit as a guy who hasn't invested in a VR headset yet.

 

[strafer]

Thats the guy from The Hobbit and not James Cromwell.

[NumberThree]

The Bunker seems cool.

 

[pizzacat]

Is there a normal pic of this guy I'm fucking crying lol

[Strax]

Maybe The Bunker becomes more of a game later on but so far it just feels like a well made low-budget debut feature film from a unknown director.

That looked like a really well done FMV game. I think I'll pick it up.

I tell you what, nothing really seemed weird in Rec Room until the actual children arrived.

 

[Salarians]

You're sooooooo tall!

 

[KingKong]

this FMV game seems too serious and well made to be funny

VinnyVania in little under 3hours!

(Would have preferred a Playdate, tbh)

Wonder if they'll do the elusive target next week.

Man, Persona 5's "theme song" is so cool but I really can't stand the singer's voice.

How often do they do the Playdates?

 

[TraBuch]

There's no way Jeff doesn't play VR charades during UPF, right?

 

[oti]

VinnyVania though. 😴

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

In my experience not a lot of people play charades in Rec Room, and it's not great when they do. I'm confident Jeff can make it entertaining though.

Spoiler

I'll try to play with them

 

[KillerDark]

How often do they do the Playdates?

No set schedule really... for awhile they would usually have 1 stream a week, either VinnyVania or a Playdate.

 

[LiK]

PlayDate is whenever and whatever Vinny feels like playing. Curious how they do without Dan giving tips.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

As much as I'm enjoying the Shenmue ER, it's not scratching the itch that Life is Strange or Contradiction or Until Dawn did. I hope GBeast does another full-game playthrough this year.

since Dan won't be back for a while, they need to grab Jeff Bakalar for one.

 

[strafer]

Until Dawn playthrough was brilliant. And so was Life Is Strange.

Yes! Very much so. I miss that guy, I hope he's on Vinnyvania today.

I think the fact that those games had interesting (even if not necessarily good) stories full of twists and turns really helped. So far, from what I've seen, Shenmue just seems kind of...boring

Totally. I'm enjoying it because Vinny-Dan is a hilarious pairing (I love Alex too). The other playthroughs had interesting games in addition to GBeast.

 

[LiquidSword]

The craziest things about Rec Room is that it's free and as Brad said, they formed their studio when the Vive launched. They made that beautiful thing in just a few months. Really excited to see where it ends up.
