Ok listen, it's a world where everything that you can think of could be real with magic or some other means, so is it really even that much of a stretch to think that maybe the door is magic or clockwork or tech or something and just opening it is the wrong solution?

[@jamiefravel7035]

You call it new lore, I call it the original basis for nearly every modern science fiction setting.

[@Leathal]

I’m still processing the fact that he had to look up Asimov. Dude is the closest equivalent to a sci-fi Tolkien as far as creating most of the genre’s tropes

[@Chris-wq3pe]

@@Leathal yep. to be fair, habie is probably too young to know about Science Fiction Gods like Asimov, though. But yeah, still surprising as I thought he was someone who knew a bit about the genre.

Isaac Asimov was SO ahead of his time. He was coming up with holographic interactive displays and bio interface machines before the world 'hologram' was even invented. He called them tri linear interfaces. His ideas were before modern processors. So freaking ahead of his time

[@W-C-F-o1k]

I really appreciate this game. I love story driven single-player games. I'm also a huge fan of the books. I need to do my second play through for the other side now

[@tyupiopumpkin3313]

Habie, I just wanna say thank you. Waking up to your videos every Saturday is always a highlight of my day and never fails to make me smile of strongly exhale from my nose

[@Hundredthldiot]

I read a lot of scifi as a teenager and also gamed a lot, so was surprised that habie hadn't heard of Azimov, but then I'm really old and maybe the gaming-scifi correlation of interests isn't as strong as I thought. Anyway, a great smoothbrain intro to Azimov is "I, Robot", the short story collection not the dumb movie. Foundation is kinda exhausting.

[@Leathal]

Yeah it’s kinda shocking that zoomer nerds today don’t know about the godfathers of sci-fi. Especially Asimov! He was dead before I read a single book of his and most of his work was written when my parents were kids so it’s not a generational gap

[@Jonanation]

Also the books by Ursula Leguin! I especially like "Left hand of darkness"

[@lemagicbaguette1917]

What’s hilarious is that I have his name ingrained in the empty void between my ears, and I only found out just today that he is one of the great granddaddies of sci-fi.

[@sparkfrog777]

Hey, just being here to say some of us zoomer nerds still know of all this stuff, and it thankfully isn’t lost to time!

[@sparkfrog777]

When I saw the video I wasn’t really expecting it to actually be based off Foundation, but then Hari Seldon was mentioned and I became very excited very quickly!

[@JollyBlackwell]

The thing about isaac asimov is that generic sci-fi is partially the way it is because of him, he literally came up with the term robot

[@dank4686]

Ah yes, I totally read a 5 book long series in order to just watch habie play through a vr rendition of the story. Ngl was absolutely stunned that they made a vr game out of a silly little series I picked up like last year.

Habie didn't get nominated for the VR Awards this year, his content (especially the twitchstreams of him walking in his room) proves how much of a stick is up the whazoo of the VR Awards organisation. You'll always have my vote Habie.. Also, what should the link do? It brings me to a page about some org for marketing i think? Smoothbrain that i am..no clue what that's supposed to do.

[@WhiteRaven___]

I honestly don't understand how he wasn't nominated. Or even honorably mentioned... most of the other "content creators" that were nominated are not creators. They just steal and rehash the same "quest 2/3 news or best free games to play right now" or some other copy paste click bait title. It's a shame

[@kareltjevdb5987]

Asimov wrote the 3 laws in robotics. The movie iRobot is based on a short story of his then they completely bastardized it cause, Will Smith would only play in roles where his character would save the world

[@dilanyx1243]

in vr you have to think like you´re in a movie or something and not a game, thats how you get immersed

[@Jeff_the_ApocalypticGameCat]

It’s so frustrating when someone (not including Habie, because he cracks me up) struggles to figure out something so simple, like reloading a gun in VR. Watching them try to rack the slide on a pistol over and over when there’s already a bullet in the chamber, and then they don’t understand why they can’t do it, is downright triggering😩

I honestly have been taking your videos for granted until i watched a video from a channel way larger than yours thats editing couldnt even come close to how you edit :P

I love how VR gets to translate Habie’s mannerisms into the game. It really makes me chuckle just a little bit more when the half-chimp hero, smashing his VR mega blocks together, gets interrupted by what I presume is very surface level narrative in the games. Even funnier when this is sponsored by the developers. It’s one thing to throw boxes around in half life 2 but seeing specific hand and head movements just accentuates the absurdity.
