I ran across an entire CONTINENT in VR with an Omni-Direction Treadmill

[@KATVR]

Note on the Wear and Tear effect: Regarding the hardcore wear and tear that affected the Thrill's shoes and platform - it can be mostly avoided by application of lubricant maintenance oil (Each KAT Walk C package comes with a bottle of silicon oil for that purpose). 2 - 3 drops once in a while will keep the surface and the shoes smooth for hundreds of hours of walking, running and sprinting, greatly reducing the wear and tear. That said - we owe thrill's feet serious apologies - This information has not been delivered to him so that's on us!

[@merendell]

I've looked into it, Just cant justify the price right at this moment. Far to many demands on my sadly not unlimited finances at this time. Still you guys sit in that nice middle ground of good enough to add to the immersion but not outrageously expensive. I can save up for one of yours, a few of the others I looked at were a hard nope when they outpriced my car by a couple of times.

[@fsdfsdsgsdhdssd8559]

You should add an auto-applicator that just applies a couple drops to the edge every 2 hours or something. That way the immersion isn't broken. Let the player distribute it when they run over it and keep the parts minimal. Although it might make them trip so a warning or something might be needed. Possibly let them apply it through a menu when they notice the surface could use some.

[@KATVR]

@@fsdfsdsgsdhdssd8559 Hi there! There is no threat to immersion since there is no need for applying the oil each few hours. The oil needs to be applied once in several days so it doesn't affect the gaming sessions in any way : ) The minimum effort that it takes (1 minute each few days) doesn't justify any automatic oil application system that would cause an absolutely unproportional increase in price.

Just going to bring the reality factor in, he most definitely did not travel 13 miles. I'm not saying he's not fit or even capable of travelling 13 miles in 2 hours, but with those small steps and inability to move well, 13 miles is a heavy exaggeration if you consider it for a moment. 9 minute mile pace is doable for somewhat active people, 9 minute mile pace for 13 miles is much more intense and usually is done by people who run and train often. Again, I wouldn't be surprised if Thrill could run 13 miles in 2 hours on an actual treadmill or a road race, but not with the small steps and shuffle like movement that's done on the Kat Walk C. 13 miles is a heavy, heavy exaggeration. 8 miles is a much more reasonable estimation, maybe a bit less.

The reason he wears a mask on video is not because of protection from COVID. He wears it as a separation between reality and VR. In VR he can be who he wants to be, in reality he can only be who he is. The mask allows him to more personify his VR self in "live action" video. Also wearing a mask indoors around others is precisely where you want to be wearing one. In fact the place you are most likely to catch COVID is in your home, because you are not wearing a mask around your family members.

Dude wears a mask for privacy reasons, what were you on about, lmao.

@@JVLY Anti-maskers are a combination of stupid and mentally ill, so no wonder so many of them don't understand why he would blur his face.

Massive MASSIVE props to you Thrill for taking this endeavor as big project. Excellent video for a tremendous amount of work.

[@justaguydoinstuff]

Good for you man! Way to have the guts and determination to make it all the way. Truly impressive!

[@Reviewing_Playing_and_More_RPM]

Now that's commitment, wow just incredible. Well done.

The continent is Tamriel. :) Skyrim is just a 9th of the continent. But still cool video.

[@LionMillcomics]

Questions i asked myself: why are you wearing a mask outside? Why are are you wearing a mask in your empty office? Why are blurring your face at minute 4? Is it because you weren't wearing a mask? If so, that's really weird.

[@mawnkee2921]

That’s what I’m wondering.

Nice and subtle lo-fi Skyrim music. Really nice touch

actually really good to see the cheap shoe material wore down quickly rather than wearing out the very expensive platform.

6:42 You almost managed to remove the headset for the virtual reality we're living in. Better luck next time.

I think Jacob Geller had a really good point in his video about objects, Half Life Alyx was so immersive because of the intimacy of you yourself picking up an object and holding it. I think the more we can make vr become even more intimate, and closer to normality then we will have a true escape… a place to get fit as well

I had a similar experience in Pistol Whip playing through the whole cyber punk campaign in one go. My legs were giving out from all the lunging and squaring I was doing but I was sucked in so far I didn’t care and it heightened the experience to a level I wasn’t expecting and am still chasing.

[@HerculeanPearl]

Dude I just got back from a 27-mile 2-3 day hike irl and it was terrible. Can't imagine how difficult doing it in VR would be xD

[@engineergibson1982]

These VR Omni Direction Treadmills look awesome. Just even more stuff to immerse ourselves in games, and I can't wait to try one.

[@matthewcassidy5979]

is no one going to talk about him blurring his face bc he wasnt wearing a mask lmao 3:57
