i'll never understand why Sony gave these Guerrilla Games employees like Hermen Hulst and Angie Smets top positions in the company as a whole, Guerrilla is not even in the top 3 best PlayStation Studios, Horizon is nowhere near in the level of God Of War and Spiderman (and i love Horizon)

Prior to Insomniac joining, Guerilla was top 3. Horizon and SM are around the same level, imo. Both have similar Meta averages, both get nominated for GOTY, but don’t actually win the awards and get overshadowed by other games. Also Guerilla made a new IP into a 20M+ seller. Insomniac used an established license. What big hit did Insomniac make before SM?

Reforge says that half the live service games are cancelled because Playstation is "reconsidering" the live service strategy. But Totoki says nothing has changed on that front and the plan is to continue pushing live service games. And he's the one claiming to tighten up fiscally.

Nope. It's cause I use an old apk for Android of Firefox 68 (before addon apocalypse/mobile FF recode).

I don't mind clicking a link to see the media, if the forum coding can be added to the header/footer to just attach it on the end/underneath live embed elements, they seem to work less and less for me in terms of loading the live embed itself lol

Nintendo tried it

Cardboard box.

Valve tried it

Super-expensive headset. Cool game, though (HL: Alyx).

Meta tried it

Little if any genuine 1P games.

Sony tried it

Very expensive headset.

Microsoft even tried it

Barely tried, half-hearted at best. No 1P games.

Google tried it

More AR than VR,. No 1P games.

Samsung tried it

Expensive headset. No 1P games.

Now Apple is trying it

Ludicrously expensive. No 1P games.

Nobody has succeeded with VR, not even after Meta invested like 60 billion.

Stop the Cap

If you look above, you'll see exactly why none of them really succeeded and got it to become a mainstream standard.

It's not because people aren't interested in VR gaming. But they have no need if there isn't any big VR gaming content (something the platform holder/manufacturer should be pushing) and/or the headset's incredibly expensive.

Resolve those two problems and the market would grow by magnitudes.

"Sony didn't support it one jot", yeah having 6 exclusive GOTY contenders in its first year alone isn't support? 🤦‍♂️
Name them.
And no, they didn't support it. Not adding VR2 mode to destiny 2 is the definition of not supporting.

Cool story, bro.

So those six exclusives...
No need for me to list them because you're already well aware, you just want to spread FUD. Just like the other anti VR FUD spreader @Danja1187 , I speak truth and you guys will ignore it and continue your FUD campaign.
