I wish 😉

Playing Doom in reality?

I personally never fall into loot boxes, as I was never abscessed with skins or so. It is a still a mystery for me how some people can invest so much into a digital look.Sometimes I do buy some battle pass just as a jester to support devs!

Thank you! I appreciate it a lot! :)

Thnx for a useful info. I also not like much the default games in a oculus store. There are some nice project, but mostly not so attractive. I must jump into these modes when I get some more free time!😁

Totally agree. I where thinking that some companies couldve put a deposit limit for those who cannot controll their spendings, just like some online casino does. That would solve some part of a problem at least, but I guess non would do it, as it is for sure going to decrease profit in online product.🙃

I'm sure that many kids waste their parents credit card this way, but I doubt that it is majority.

I'm the same. It's a shock for me too see how much some people can spend just to get drop specific character in Genshin Impact!

@@zanzarand No, not to get a specific toon, that's easy to do f2p. To get a specific toon to max constellation along with his personal weapon on max rank within hour after the banner got online. And that's absolutely whale/streamer behavior and I sincerely hope that spending doesn't hurt them respectively they re-earn it with their stream.

Yup, you're right that free-to-play players can eventually get the toons they want, but it can take enourmous amount of time that the most of the people dont't really have. And some people fall into 'want this character no matter what' trap watching those streamers. It's key to keep in mind that everyone's finances are different, and what's affordable for one player may not be for another. So yeah, it's crucial to be smart with your money and make sure gaming doesn't mess with other areas of your life. Most importantly, have fun playing in a way that works for you!

If I play a game with a monetarization scheme based on loot boxes regularly, I aim to spend about the same as I would spend on a subscription in a similar game. In most cases, it's difficult for me to find stuff to buy to meet this goal.

Welp, gaming PC for me always will be in favor,still much more choices in terms of everything!

Large Networking VR games will be impossible for consoles too achieve, networking instances loaded through clusters of discord server-meshing is coming soon to gaming, imagine _(if you will)_ those exploration areas you see in game (plantet5467) is actually a server mesh and you approach it and loads the entire server so it's not really "planet5467" it's actually "Server5467" impossible for consoles to achieve with just the meere logisitcs of it. _Well who's doing that! i mean c'mon_ -- *STAR CITIZEN IS DOING THAT*

@@stash. Large Networking VR games? Online gaming does not depend on your local network or your gpu at all. What matters is the speed of your internet connection if you are talking about latency. You can play multiplayer online games using just a chromebook if you are subscribed to some cloud gaming services. PS5 beats rtx 3060ti in processing VR images. So, if a PS5 can't do it, neither can a $1200 gaming PC. So, what are you talking about really? LOL

​@@trumplostlol3007 PS5 doesn't beat or come close to rtx with DLSS3 enabled, if you play any large network mmo game the more gpu/cpu needs to be processed like giant space battles on eve online was released in 2003 and willl bring modern rtx computers to a crawl. Now scale those 2003 graphics up too 2023. Don't believe everything you hear kid. Modern networking is stoneage tech too what they're cooking up, not even modern GPU's can render giant battles on eve online and that is a 2003 game. What *STAR CITIZEN* is trying is straight up witch craft.

@@stash. CNET just did a comparison between PSVR2 and Quest 2. Guess what, they had to use rtx 2070 super in order to match the PS5. PCs are NOT designed for gaming. Just by adding a graphics card is NOT an efficient way to play games. That Windows OS is another major drag to the performance of a PC for gaming. Windows OS is NOT designed for gaming either. That's why you need to pay $1500 for a gaming PC to match the performance of a $400 PS5 for playing VR games. What is worse? There are soooooo many different specs for all the DIFFERENT gaming PC out there, it is IMPOSSIBLE for game developers to optimize their games on gaming PCs. You know nothing gaming. It is all about cost effectiveness. That's why PS4 sold over 110 million units. How many mid to high end gaming PC have they sold in the past 5 years? LOL

With all Meta resources they already could've make several.Just a question of optimisation.

Congrats with the purchase! Most of simulators works amazing in VR. Enjoy your first head set!

Psvr is trash i returned it after 2 days

Thanks for the explanation. Very interesting points. I'm excited to see how these technologies developing, especially how they can be integrated in game worlds!

Oh yes, totally agree! And loot boxes with monthly passes, new marketing tricks make situation only worse. VR is fresh and not spoiled!

Thanks for mentions. I didn't put Quest 1 in the video as it didn't reach as much mass success. But, indeed it's a 1st mass standalone headset.

Yes,VR totally gives special feeling for these genres,I personally for long time don't play racings on a monitor screen,somehow is too boring!

i will add FPS is a pretty good genre as well just like HL:A. at least 3 genres can shine in VR so it will never replace mainstream gaming on mobile nor consoles/pcs.

Thank you! Yes,I'd love to spend more time in VR if there would be worthwhile titels. I speculate if PS VR2 sales will be high, then probably devs will focus more on this part of market too. Let's hope!

it's sad VR has been out to close to 10 years if you include dev kits and etc and it's still in it's infancy. I think there are so many factors holding it back, convenience and ease of use is one of the biggest one. i feel people just don't wanna set it up and even just simply putting it on their face is an annoyance. It will never get close to console and mobile gaming because of the additional investment on top of a console or pc.

@@bongjai Yes, form factor make a difference. I hope that with the tech development we will see soon some new solutions!

Nice suggestion.But still would be nice to see some nice all-around device for mass consumption from a one of the big company with a decent price tag.Mass consumer just wouldn't do all this steps to get a nice VR experience. And TNX for a tip, I'll check helixMod ;)

@@zanzarand my view is that its all in the software, if the long-play-time, decent graphic AAA titles arent there for VR, i'll just stick with a seated experience and use a couple of arduinos and an IMU to make a headtracking mouse and use nvidia 3DTVplay and sony hmz which has native nvidia3Dvision support Monoscopic "VR" isnt as bad as it sounds a couple of very short segements of my set ups eg : monoscopic: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4mnY4uDqq2ZgtU or stereoscopic : kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4mnY4uDqq2ZgtU once you have mastered Arduinos you can make more complex controllers eg gun/steering-yoke combo controller and means of combinimg multiple wired and wireless HIDs and output their combined data to xbox360-style-controller-hardware-emulator and/or mouse and/or keyboard kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGWUp5-hfpWjars yeah i know .. its very DIY and not mass market available

One like Half-Life Alyx is Bonelab.

@@1234Leeky Also a Boneworks. They are both nice games, but in my opinion they cannot be compared to Alex level of details.

I'm glad that my review is useful! Have fun in your playthrough! :)

@@zanzarand Honestly, this looks like Jade Empire 2.0

Thank you for warm comment! Actually after playing some new titles I reconsider some aspects of XYS7 and think that the game is actually much better then I described in this review. Enjoy watching playthrough! ;)

That's great! Enjoy the game, it's very funny but at the same time deeply touching adventure!

Bender

You are welcome. Hope you'll enjoy the game and comeback to watch some other content on my channel! =)

You will for sure! Story line definitely worth time investing!

That's true. But in my opinion Valve made a step further with adding environmental puzzles as a gameplay felt much more rich at that time. Plus in my view it was the first “shooter blockbuster”, I had a feeling of being in a movie rather than playing a classical shooter. There was a nice shooter before Half Life like Doom, Wolfeinstein, Quake, Turok…. But none of them gave me this level of immersion. As well, I prefer Valve engine for shooter, although spent many hours playing Unreal Tournament! :)

@@zanzarand Unreal 1 also had puzzles. It even is longer and has lore too - though most of it is to be read or observed. I can agree that Half Life made it more cinematic and I respect that, but now 23 years later we can see that making games like movies was a big mistake and a massive downgrade compared to making games like books / like games. IMHO - you owe it to yourself to try Unreal 1 with the unofficial patch and Unreal Evolution mod. You will see what I mean. Its a GOAT shooter, easily equal to DOOM Eternal or Half life (it is in between those in terms of realism) but for some reason it is under the radar.

@@CharcharoExplorer I cannot agree with you on that. Witcher 3 feels like a movie (or actually series) but still have many nice moments in gameplay and very interesting complex world. I assume the problem is that publishers force the developer to release a very raw product with a lack of content, world elaboration, quality etc. And unfortunately, there is to many examples… Today the industry is A Billion $ market where studios work like a machine rather than a creative company. And it is very pity that studios choose to make some multiplayer product instead of a nice single player adventure. Titles that we talked about was developed by real enthusiast who wanted to make a great game and not Bank account. ;) And thank you for recommendation! I'll check it when I'm going to have some spare time.

@@zanzarand The Witcher mostly feels like a book to me since unlike a movie, it has the lenght and girth to show more than only what is the most important for the plot/characters. I agree on the rest, but I disagree on that point. Let games be games. The greatest movies ever made, things like Come and See, Schindler's List, The Godfather, Solaris... they are not something gaming can match. At least not if gaming wants to copy movies -> at best it will be an inferior copy. Literature is even greater than cinema, its top tier works on a level MUCH higher than anything even cinema has, let alone gaming. But it is also easier to adapt to games. Still not optimal to just copy paste from books I'd say, since that is still imitation, but at least you are copying from the best. But the games I love, things like SOMA, DOOM, STALKER, Prey, Talos Principl... they are proud of being games. They also try to do things other mediums cannot do but better -> they attempt being their own thing. I hope you like it. Unreal 1 is a GOAT. I also like your video, just wanted to get this out of my system. I am a Half Life fan too :P

Hey tiga2001! Thank you for a small feedback! :)

Thanks for subscribing mate. Now i have even more motivation for more and better videos!

@@zanzarand 🙌

Thank you! Yes, I went through in about 18 hours, but it's without checking all corners of the game.

@@zanzarand i see. Nice!

Well, looks like it didn't turn out the way they wanted. SS4 created on their engine, and I guess they didn't polish to the point they wanted. It's just sad to see so many undeserved bad reviews. They are small team and don't have so many resources like some big AAA studios. I liked how new 'Sam Stone' turn out, and in general it's quite decent product with its own character.
