It sounds like the returning players don’t have to pay the $40, though?

I mean...

It’s less the technical implementation of the tracking than it is the software API that the systems use. An Oculus Quest or Rift or a Windows Mixed Reality headset can play OpenXR games just as well as a Valve Index or HTC Vive can, and they all use very different tracking solutions. The reason they all work together…

Ah, Project Eve, aka Nier: Automata + Dark Souls but make it horny(er).

Considering this, Night Sky, and League of Their Own were all binge releases, I feel like this doesn’t bode well for a second season of League of Their Own.

Canonically Celebrimbor gets the idea to make the Rings from Sauron while he’s being held prisoner, so Celebrimbor’s whole ‘I need to build this big forge and I need it built in 6 weeks’ thing would be being driven by Sauron’s influence.

Definitely not Sauron. The heavily foreshadowed twist of the season is going to be that the elves have had Sauron in captivity the whole time. Only the Elf Lords know about it, hence the whole ‘You’re not allowed in the next meeting, Elrond’ bit.

Constantly showing how fucking lame the metaverse is while also corrupting the very concept of it (how exactly was Eminem and Snoop’s performance “in a metaverse”? There wasn’t any sort of multi-user element to it as far as I can tell, it was just off the shelf mocap and incredibly shitty environment design) is fine…

Yeah, apple juice on cereal is 100% one of those weird quirks that Stallone gives a character just because he wants to give them a weird quirk.

I audibly wondered why they would do this??!

Surprised at Titans and Doom Patrol getting specifically called out in this. I thought for sure that they’d be on Zaslav’s Kill List.

Quite convenient to have the right drips and a vent - along with another doctor (I was thinking they’d have to send theirs up) - on the Phoenix to get the end scene, but eh.

He could still be prosecuted and he’d likely resign.

There are some rumours that Zaslav’s going to announce that they’re killing HBO Max and folding it into Discovery+ on Thursday.

It’s a maximum of about a 5 hour drive.

Companies are still making hardware, but most aren’t making hardware for consumers.

Also is anyone else getting signed out every day here? Because I am and its annoying.

The point of pricing the Meta Quest 2 so low to begin with—the same as the Nintendo Switch but for a wire-free VR headset—was to aggressively drive early adoption and help lift up a market that has stalled for years.

Yeah, 18 episodes is a lot. And considering how hard a time they’ve had with keeping a consistent quality level with the 6-8 episode D+ series so far, I can’t figure how 18 episodes isn’t going to feel EXTREMELY padded out.

Because it’s a pain in the ass to do. If it’s using DX11 pretty much the only way to do it is to have a level that flips through every single material in the game and load that level, hide it behind a loading screen, and then load the actual game levels. DX12 and Vulkan allow for developers to build a sort of ‘instruct…
