Which VR thing is out today? The Microsoft one? They all kinda run together for me.

There is no Microsoft one.

Get it together, Microsoft doesn't even have a VR headset.

 

[Twin Tails]

yeah I'm not sure what I was expecting to happen but it wasn't this

were you expecting some hatsune miku + novant falcon action?

 

[stump sock]

were you expecting some hatsune miku + novant falcon action?

good.

 

[justjim89]

The first initial wave of pre-orders ship today for the Oculus Rift, for those who were quick enough to pre-order the first wave.

Gotcha, thanks.

 

[GustyGardens]

I don't see the benefit of VR with this game. It seems like it might be a good game made even better without VR.

 

[Bowlie]

I like your links.

 

[Wunder]

good.

BADDDD

 

[Felix Lighter]

Have they played Elite Dangerous yet?

Jeff already said the porn doesn't work.

 

[santeesioux]

Jeff with glasses would be weird and different, I don't like change.

I hope he gets lazer eyes.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Have they played Elite Dangerous yet?

Nope, and they don't know they can get a code from the Frontier site.

 

[Wunder]

IM SCARED

 

[RepairmanJack]

Guys, I think this stream broke me. Haven't watched for about 15 minutes now and still feel sick. I don't ever get motion sick, does it usually stick around for a bit?

 

[Bowlie]

Me too.

It can in my experience.

 

[RepairmanJack]

It might have just gotten me so bad because I'm also trying to work while watching a stream with VR in it. My brain can only deal with so many levels of inception.

 

[Megasoum]

Fuck it.... Switched the stream to my TV (via Twitch) and now going back to Rocky 3 on my PC

I started doing that on my PS4. I used the web browser, which is horrible but works nicely with the site, to stream UPF while I played the Wii U on the couch. Good stuff.

Yeah I do that to from time to time but since it'S a free stream on Twitch then the Twitch app is much easier.

 

[TheMrPliskin]

It normally tends to go away after like 30 minutes to an hour, depending on how severe it was.

 

[justjim89]

Not being easily scared is one thing, but it seems like immersion within a game is an entirely foreign concept to Dan. Not with these games specifically, just in general.

 

[Felix Lighter]

I'm about to test my resiliency. I'm going to watch the stream while running on my treadmill.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

I was hoping everybody is in the VR stream thread so I can have this thread to myself.

I'm about to test my resiliency. I'm going to watch the stream while running on my treadmill.

Is it a Virtuix Omni treadmill?

 

[GustyGardens]

If they polish up that game and put it up on PSVR, I'd buy it. I like the vibe it was putting out there, but it seemed pretty janky.

 

[Kelas]

worth tuning in for drew's stumble

 

[repeater]

Hey guys, I've been away since Thursday, hope all's been well and the anime prohibition has been enforced.

I've been watching the Oculus stream for an hour and a half.. Is this the day VR died?

 

[def sim]

I'm going to be missing all of this. I hope this hits the archives ASAP. 😰

 

[Volotaire]

It seems like they are breaking up the streams every few hours for that purpose.

 

[Felix Lighter]

Is it a Virtuix Omni treadmill?

I wish. I survived but my knee didn't last the typical distance. I need new shoes.

Ah, cool, good to know.

 

[Incandenza]

Just tuning in now, any highlights so far?

 

[shortsFortallPeople]

i run on an elliptical that my mother in law handed down to us and it saves the knees from a lot of pounding and lets me run while watching TV.

it's good stuff

 

[Tubobutts]

They changed the graphics settings in Subnautica and Drew almost died.

Above and headless Drew driving.

 

[nckillthegrimace]

After watching this stream, if I had a VR headset preordered, then I would cancel it immediately.

Austin is probably doing the DkS3 review: https://twitter.com/BloodyBHoney/status/714452819437359104

 

[Brashnir]

This game has a dire need of Fudgehogs.

Or any kind of charm or personality. Everything I've seen so far on this show seems like it was designed by emotionally dead people. Or robots.

I'm not sure what game you're talking about as I'm behind the screen. In general, though, all the Oculus published games feel incredibly over-produced and sterile. Some of the outside games are charming as shit, but stuff like Lucky's Tale feels like it has no personality.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Kerbal: Project B.E.A.S.T - Part 14

Fuck VR. The time is now.

 

[Data West]

Man Jeff lost a ton of weight.

I've only caught bits and pieces here and there, so maybe I've missed the charming ones.

 

[FStop7]

It's not even April and there have been a bunch of hard-hitting deaths, Batman vs. Superman was trash, and VR is Kinect Redux.

It's the Year of Luigi all over again.

 

[yami4ct]

I'm catching stuff here and there, but the jetpack game by The Room folks looks neat. Good art style and clever use of VR. Definitely a tech demo as opposed to a full game, but it's much more interesting than the Oculus Published stuff.

Seeing Chronos now. The idea of the age progression system sounds cool, but everything else seems absolutely awful. Talk about a game that seems actively hindered by VR. Third Person RPGs are not ready for VR.

 

[TraBuch]

Has there been one interesting looking original VR game yet?

 

[yami4ct]

Has there been one interesting looking original VR game yet?

Tennis looks fun as shit, but the addition of VR isn't any better than the addition of the Wii controller. I could play Wii Tennis and have as much if not more without paying the price of a headset.

Adr1ft seems neat, but everything I hear about how repetitive that game gets is disappointing.

 

[Fantastapotamus]

There's that anime schoolgirl simulator.

 

[Zeouterlimits]

Haha, this is great.
