Ich durfte das #GothicRemake für @heise.de testen und ja, was soll ich sagen? Manch schöne Erinnerung sollte man vielleicht lieber Erinnerung bleiben lassen... Mein Fazit... (1/7)

Zwei Wochen ohne Konsole, ohne Handy, ohne dieses nervöse „Nur noch eine Runde“ – und plötzlich fühlt sich Gaming nicht mehr wie ein Job an, sondern wie das, was es einmal war: ein verdammtes Abenteuer. space4games.com/de/games/kol...

Ich musste erst ans andere Ende der Welt fliegen, um wieder Spaß am Gaming zu haben

Zwei Wochen ohne Konsole, ohne Handy, ohne dieses nervöse „Nur noch eine Runde“ – und plötzlich fühlt sich Gaming wieder gut an.

A decade of Meta’s outsized influence left the #VirtualReality industry bloated, brittle, and stuck in a holding pattern. Now, as Meta pulls back, there’s turbulence—but also, maybe, a long-overdue chance for a genuine reset. space4games.com/en/virtual-r...

The End of Meta’s VR Era Might Be the Industry’s Best Chance Yet

The VR industry is suffering from the aftershocks of a decade-long dominance by a single company with too much money and too little patience.

There are rumors that the current wave of #layoffs at #meta 's Reality Labs has mainly affected employees at the #virtualreality studios Twisted Pixels (Deadpool VR) and Sanzaru Games (Asgard's Wrath 2). If you are affected yourself or have more information on the subject, please DM me.

Avowed is coming to PS5! If you’re an action RPG fan, this one’s a no-brainer. Avowed delivers a gorgeous world and a refreshing focus on what matters most in an Action-RPG.

@pcgamer.com just published one of the most disrespectful articles I've read lately. There are a lot of talented people working at @vertigo-games.bsky.social who don't deserve to be belittled in this way. Very bad style.

@mixed-en.bsky.social is no more... (1/11)

I took my first steps in Of Lies and Rain (PC VR) yesterday and wow, does it look good...

@jamiefeltham.bsky.social brings up some good points here. Take a good look at this, #XR OS developers 😉

MIXED@mixed-en.bsky.social · last yr.

I strapped on Sony's #PSVR2 to experience Hitman: World of Assassination up close and personal. Here's what works – and what doesn't.

The VR industry is going through some growing pains right now. That's why events like @vrgamesshowcase.bsky.social are becoming increasingly critical. They offer a rare spotlight for developers to show off their latest innovations and upcoming games to a broad audience.

According to Bloomberg, Meta is developing a successor to Quest Pro: - more powerful CPU - enhanced cameras - improved sensors for tracking hands and body movements AND there are also discussions about potentially integrating new NFT and metaverse capabilities...

Meta killed a possible successor to the Quest Pro 2 in 2024, but now the company is reportedly working on a high-end Quest model again. mixed-news.com/en/quest-pro...

So no Meta Quest commercials this year? I think a Quest 3S commercial would certainly not have hurt...

Interesting piece by @jamiefeltham.bsky.social Right now PSVR 2 is being carried on the backs of some great developers. (1/2)

MIXED@mixed-en.bsky.social · 2y ago

In his MIXED column “Gaming In Focus”, XR industry expert Jamie Feltham talks about the recent resurgence of PSVR 2. While Sony is scrapping more and more live service games, a better VR strategy could have led to significantly more success. mixed-news.com/en/psvr-2-at...

Nachdem ich das unsägliche Twitter verlassen habe, bin ich nun über den Umweg Threads hier gelandet. Ich hoffe, das war mein letzter Umzug. Also Blueskye, gibt's hier ein paar sympathische Menschen, die sich für Gaming, Virtual Reality, Mangas oder Wrestling begeistern können? 😊✌️
