heh, this totally reminds me of Terry Pratchett’s dwarves, that spend a lot of time trying to find out what’s under the beard of the other first without asking that akward question xD
I’m not even sure why this was in one of my drawers at all. Stumbled over it randomly today and was confused by this initially because somehow “VR” is marked with “brand new shit” in my head. I should know better but kinda forgot all about it.
I get the charm of a console for gaming. Just switch it on and go. Still prefer a PC at the end of the day though. For once my preferred genres are very unrepresented on consoles and since I dabble in DIY I do not have that level of freedom on a console or mobile phone. Well, do some extend. Fiddling around with key remappers that hijack on the accessibility system is horrible. Anyway, I enjoy tinkering and this is not really something consoles are known for, no?
This said it is very amazing that I can just e.g. fire up Waydroid nowadays, connect an X360 controller and play AmongUs with the little one on my Linux PC. That level of possibilities is mind boggling.
Quite an impressive list (together with the other posts). And here I thought I was a space nutter (thanks Beyond The Frontier!).
Missing the slug throwers Diaspora: Shattered Armistice and House of the Dying Sun though. The former is an Open Freespace mod in the BSG verse with a great campaign, the latter a rather short but still very nicely done pew pew that shines especially on sound effects (and I guess VR but I didn’t try that). Both do TrackIR though (and I even hacked together an OpenTrack provider for the native Linux version of FSO).
