There were so many folks here who, back in 2013, said "VR headsets, like 3D TVs, will only last a couple years, 5 at most. Oh, I'm so smart, rub my nipples, bla bla bla"
The Climb, when I made my first headset purchase (Quest 1) for my dad... but I can't remember if maybe it was using an included $10 coupon or something? I dunno...
Zelda II + Castlevania + Terraria
A side-scrolling Zelda game, with heavier rpg elements (like Zelda II), darker more mature tone (lots of blood) and procedural world-building mechanics
favourite: dark forests, something spooky with puddles and fuzzy trees and mushrooms and shit...
least favourite: flat deserts, just sand as far as the eye can see, no vegetation or notin'... super boring... I even prefer those insanely large procedural fields in elder scrolls daggerfall
For something that is intended to be used on a busy city sidewalk (san francisco, new york), they sure went out of their way to NOT demo it anywhere near a real situation like that. They'd really need a special lane to not crash into people, as it seems impossible to really dodge while walking...
I barely keep track of new releases so know nearly nothing about new franchises, but taking a quick look at a few lists:
Starfield
Alan Wake 2
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom
Final Fantasy XVI
Flashback 2
Ghostbusters: Rise of the Ghost Lord
Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection...
^ I tried singing that using the original melody, but "eyeballs" is too many syllables so it didn't quite fit. "Balls" would work though, lyrically and rhythmically.
Yep and the other factor is our eyes (gamers and those paying attention) are getting better and better at distinguishing the differences, even though they may be more subtle than the difference between say PS1 and PS2 which I think is obvious to nearly anyone.
