I liked his games, specialty the Witness but if he’s a “legendary game designer” I’m a Nobel prize laureate ☠️
He is very notable. And opinionated. “Legendary” is hyperbole.
I liked The Witness a lot more than Braid, and I really liked the integration of philosophy. I hope this new title has the same polish and depth.
Yeah, I agree that Quest 3 feels like it has crossed a line. Even my non-autistic friends are starting to see VR as the future. I personally put on the headset for almost every form of digital entertainment now. Even the virtual 2D monitor it makes is better resolution than 1080p at what normal people use as a comfortable viewing distance/field of view.
And while it’s not as many pixels as a 4K screen close up yet, the temporal antialiasing from head movements makes a 4k desktop stream look just as clear close up as my 4k monitor, at least specifically through Virtual Desktop, the other options aren’t as good for whatever reasons. And to be fair, it’s not much less than 4k close up. Technically the screens are 2k by 2k per eye, but there is decent overlap for 3D. So it’s less than the resolution necessary to truly be 4k by 2k, but you’d be hard pressed to convince someone that has seen it with their own eyes that it is less than 4k up close.
But more importantly, the actual VR content it can display is pretty nice too.
Edit: and Quest 3 is just one option. There are other similarly good headsets out already and many more coming that will also be across that same line.
Roomscale isn’t dead!
