    Even though I am purely a PlayStation and PS VR2 player and not going to play any Xbox games on an Xbox or PC, I can't deny that the XBox Showcase presentation today is way cooler and has better games to show than the PlayStation State Of Play and Summer Game Fest combined. I was more excited watching these XBox games I'm not going to play, than I was watching the PS5 games I am able to play. That's unless they're going to also come to PS5.
    I usually enjoy PS game announcement shows in general, don't subscribe to console wars, and I'm a way more patient gamer than some who want the next big thing right now, right now.
    For the PS show, I was totally excited for only Behemoth and Alien Incursion. It would've been better if Astrobot had a VR mode. And for Summer Game Fest, ironically, the only game I was interested in was Batman Arkham Shadow, and I can't even play that on my PS VR2.
    There is one game I'm hoping comes to PlayStation 5 and that is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.
    Anyway, my point is, PlayStation better get their act together and communicate and present themselves better for PS5 and PS VR2 games. I am not buying an XBox and PC just to play a few games I'm interested in. I'm perfectly happy with the PS5 games I've played and the many great PS VR2 games I've played and that keep coming.
    I'm a PlayStation and PS VR2 fan and advocate, and proudly communicate the good things about them... Are you the same Sony PlayStation? If so, show it.

    I bought a 4k Blu Ray then got sad when it wasnt 4K on my 1080p TV... said no-one ever.
    I mean PSVR2 on PC runs PCVR games exactly like all other PCVR HMDs, so I mean, hard to be mad they haven't enabled features that no PCVR games utilise anyway.
    The fact that its really hard to make money in the VR market right now, especially if you're a tethered HMD, and the lay offs, inflation goin crazy, etc.. that fact Sony are 2 generations deep in VR while Nintendo and MS ignore it completely, I mean I don't feel like I can criticise much given the context we find ourselves in.
    Consumer choice in VR is set by cost and accessibility, not quality,
    We know this cos PCVR is dead, but for mods.
    Sony could put their VR budget massively in the red by making lots of triple A content etc, it wouldn't move the needle enough to start making the kind of profit necessary to then justify further investment.
    And the creatives and the passionate innovators aren't the ones making budgetary decisions.
    Besides that, we all assume that oh you get this or that big game into VR and it'll blow the doors off.. but that's coz WE already love VR! fans of TLOU or GTA or whatever are excited for the next game because they want more of the same thing that is the reason they loved those games in the first place, and those were TV games. They're TV gamers.
    We all know you have to get someone in a headset for them to have that A-ha moment (take on me!)
    Most flat gamers are gonna be like "oh, this game I already wanted to play in a way I'm familiar with is going to have this other weird mode that I don't understand and all I hear is it makes you barf, yea no thanks".
    We build up expectations of growth and content based on our love for this thing that the vast majority of people still feel is alien.. and not the cool, eat your face off kind.
    Thats why consumer choice with VR in the current year is driven by cost. Curious about VR? Worried u might not like it? U can either buy 1k worth of kit for a PSVR2 or 200 quid on a quest 2...
    Sorry to labour the point but it's about perspective.
    What we want as VR converts, and what is economically feasible aren't always gonna match.
    They've front loaded the launch to show what it can really do, then funded a load of 3rd parties to add modes or upgrades to give us the best versions of games that were already getting made.. maybe that's a cheaper way to sustain it while things are uncertain.
    I mean what short memories people have. The whole gaming industry is going thru some shit.. After the plandemic delays, chip shortages, PS5s only being readily available 2 years after it launched, massive lay offs to even the most successful studios, a pivot away from GAAS etc, the fact they're still in the game at all is a blessing is all I'm sayin
    Thankyou for coming to my Ted Talk. 😂

      If even 5% of GTA users bought a VR headset for it that would be a drastic increase in users
      Otherwise everything you said is on point but I more so think it's a 50/50 when it comes to big ip supporting it not a definitive "wouldn't help" so to speak

    • @GreyMatterShades
      @GreyMatterShades 25 дней назад

      From what I've seen, most of the flack toward Luke Ross' mods is that they're gamepad only, which would be fine for Astro Bot.
      Good to point out Astro isn't UE, but other modders have added VR support to other Sony games that aren't UE either (God of War, Uncharted 4, and Ghost of Tsushima all spring to mind). I'd be very surprised if someone doesn't figure out how to mod Astro on PC.

    as someone with a half-broken rift cv1 i can't wait for this thing. if modders can tweak/unlock more features through drivers that would be sick. great insights, cheers. cool that wes was knowledgeable about the possibility(?) of hdr actually working on it and the tech talk behind the eye tracking hardware being on other headsets too. and that he raised why it will have "rumble" but not higher quality haptics - because dualsense supports magic triggers etc. on pc but only if the pad is wired. maybe modders can fix that too? bryan, you should try DCS World on your pcvr. it is free. you can jump right in and fly two aircraft in vr but more complicated mapping of buttons is required to dive deeper (or higher). don't overthink it, just shoot shit.

    In the back of my mind it looks too similar to Rescue Mission (Astrobot PS5) there’s still a possibility the PS5 Pro announcement could be where Astrobot PSVR2 shows up.

      @Imhotep397 26 дней назад

      @@Jdb63 There are a number of third party games Sony invests in for the PSVR version of whatever game regardless of whether it’s exclusive or not.
      Walking Dead Saints and Sinners was heavily subsidized by Sony, be it money or paying for White Moon Dreams assistance, AFIK. Although Walking Dead: SS earned quite a bit so maybe it wasn’t necessary this go round. It seems like it was the same process, so I imagine there were some resources shared since that generally how Sony operates.
      This is also true of Sony’s current flat game strategy with all the subsidized third party games that have been released.
      With Aliens I am certain of Sony’s involvement because of the marquee promotional spot and again that’s just the way Sony operates.

    I think wes is right, they dont want to "stain" the hype from flat screeners.. I still have hope that Sony will do the right thing and have a vr mode.
    Edit- what was the sentiment when astro playroom was announced and did not have a VR mode for ps4/ psvr1 on ps5?

    • @GreyMatterShades
      @GreyMatterShades 25 дней назад

      I don't think anyone minded that Astro's Playroom didn't support PSVR 1, since it was a PS5 exclusive and PSVR 2 hadn't even been announced yet. I recall there was some speculation/wishful thinking about AP being ported to PSVR 2 for the headset's launch, or having a VR focused add-on, but nobody was really upset when that didn't happen. I think a lot of people thought Team Asobi was already working on a new Astro game that everyone assumed would support VR.
      It could be that Sony doesn't want to stain the hype by mentioning VR, but I'm skeptical. I just don't see a scenario where VR is in the works but Sony wouldn't mention it for fear of backlash from their primary userbase. If Sony feared VR hostility that much, they wouldn't be funding a VR mode at all.

    Also, with the PSVR2 on PC even though Sony isn’t supporting the extended features it seems like they are supported in OpenXR and I’m pretty sure PSVR2 will be compatible with OpenXR. Sony is not going to pay to upgrade features on PC games for VR.
    I also think Valve abandoned their VR hardware, probably tried to slap Sony with a PlayStation tax for an Alyx port and Valve and PlayStation met in the middle.

And psvr2 on pc without the benifits of eye tracking haptics in the headset. The haptics on the controllers will be simple vibrations. As a pc headset it's very low end without the things that make it special. The eyetracking is what gives it pc quality. Your better off buying a quest 3 for pc.
