Both this and that 3D games would start looking like the FMV of then-current games. Also that things would get more visually impressive but the general design philosophies of the 90s would have stuck around. So there would still be clear delineations between genres.

Sex can be fun, and it's a good release, but there are more enjoyable things to do. It's a shame our body chemistry naturally makes us feel like sex is the best and most important thing we'll ever need, to the point where even just seeing the side of a tit is enough to light you up and remove all rational thought.

In the 90s I thought it was going to all be VR in the future.

When VR finally came, I bought all the headsets, and immediately realized VR is kind of lame because the stuff you can do in it is incredibly limited outside of cockpit games, and the moment I have to completely empty a room and do all this delicate setup to get it just right, is basically a moment where I'd be better off doing an escape room.

To me It's been the opposite, I thought VR from a few years ago was just a meme and didn't work since I only played phone demos, but I tried out an Oculus Quest 2 and saw how much VR had evolved that I bought one immediately and I am amazed by how far the tech has evolved. I thought we were further behind but we're not that far away anymore, games now are so immersive.

The VR game that has impressed me most is Astrobot Rescue Mission on PS4.
First off, it's actually comfortable to play (you just sit there) and you use a regular controller.
It's a platformer, but VR's depth perception allows it to use camera angles that would be impossible on flat screen.
You're giant robot controlling a smaller robot in game, but you have this 3rd element of having your controller represented in game that has various functions.
For instance, the controller has a water gun attachment and its use in game is far more creative and fun than anything in Super Mario Sunshine.
It made me really wish that Nintendo was creating a Super Mario or Donkey Kong Country game in VR.
It made me excited for games in a way that I haven't been since early 3D or maybe the first E3 demos of Half Life 2.
Having played Half Life Alyx, I don't think VR is well suited for FPS gameplay. That's the dream that's always been in our head for VR, but the mobility in first person is just too big of an obstacle to overcome.
I think platformers are the true future of VR.

That's only because everyone had a phone and /vr/ is still prohibitively expensive to most people.

Once VR starts to become more affordable, it will become more commonplace. Of course it seems dumb and gimmicky right now. That's because it's still fresh and new.

Good thing is I never would have imagined being able to play all the old games for free, or shit like ROM hacks. There are a few good games released now, but it's mostly from Nintendo and a few other sources.

Come on anon... no one wants to play VR third person.
Alyx rules (cope analog smooth movementlets) but the strength of the media is clearly setting up a scene that fits your room scale. Superhot VR is much more immersive than alyx simply because you get to actually physically interact with the game, walking, crouching and doing contortionisms to not get shot. As soon as you give the player analog move and 45 degree rotate controls you simply STOP moving in real life as much to interact with the scenario, pretty much only slightly rotating the head to aim and using your hands. Your example basically reduced VR to a 3D TV but strapped onto your face, no wonder that's how many people think VR's experiences boil down to.

[Anonymous No.7922981]

inside out tracking is also just a lot more convenient that having base stations around your room and really isn't that much worse, either. I'm hoping valve and HTC will screw their heads back on now that the quest 2 BTFO'd them

it will ONLY take off when VR doesn't require glasses or a head set, 3d glasses to see 3d television and movies didn't take off. If you can see the 3d without them, then it would have. Literal 3d projection would need to be used to have it take off. Either in the world around you in a small area or directly beamed into your eyes.

[Anonymous No.7923071]

>>7923027
most VR games right now are being developed by small studios. there's nothing that's gonna get in some media outlets top 100 (besides maybe HL alyx) but that doesn't mean there aren't games on it that are fucking cool and really fun. Shooters to me feel much, much more dynamic in VR. You might not be able to move as fast as you can in doom, for example, but grabbing an enemy by the ankles in boneworks and hurling them into a wall just isn't an experience you can get outside of VR. Again, the best way to describe it is that it feels like what nintendo marketed the wii as, but real. Yes AAA studios are always going to be cunts. IDK what that has to do with VR being legit

>>7923035
i can agree to extent, I don't think it would require 3D projection to really take off though. It'll eventually become something more like the google glass, which is normie-friendly enough to work I believe. Hell even a lighter headset might catch on with a mainstream audience. You can tell that with the quest 2 was redesigned to appeal to more than just the epic gamer audience.

Back in the late 90s as games were starting to get more "mature" I was convinced sex and nudity was around the corner. It sort of happened with games like God of War but the context I was imagining was something like Final Fantasy VIII where Quistis would get a shower scene or something, akin to what anime OVAs were doing at the time.

[Anonymous No.7923201]

>>7922973
Here's the thing. The whole first person Ready Player One type VR is what we've been conditioned into thinking is the definitive VR experience. Alyx taught me that is something I really don't want out of VR. I play games to relax. With Alyx, I'm standing, moving, crouching, etc for hours on end. While Alyx is great at making you feel like you inhabit an environment, I don't think I'd call immersive. Moving in Alyx is a combination of actual physical movement, analog control, and teleportation. All those options together can't match the mobility offered by the traditional flat screen Half Life games. I also think opening doors and drawers is a pretty janky experience in VR because of the lack of any kind of haptic feedback. Ironically, the parts I enjoyed the most about Alyx could be done in a traditional flatscreen game. I love the headcrabs bouncing off the walls and getting stuck on their backs. I love being able to dismember the ant lions. I love the story and characters.

I know I'm never going to constantly replay Alyx like I did the other HL games because Alyx simply isn't a very comfortable game for me to play. I don't want to stand for hours on end with a headset strapped to my face. I prefer sitting at a desk with a mouse and keyboard/controller. With Astrobot, I can do that. I can play it for hours and not feel any nausea. I'm not sacrificing good controls either. It's more than just having a 3D TV strapped to your face. In addition to having control of the camera (your head) and the character (controlled traditionally with controller), your controller is represented in game and almost acts as a second character. For instance, say you have the machine gun equipped. You can control Astro regularly while using your controller in game almost like a floating turret to either defend Astro or act offensively. You can have Astro pick up a beach ball and then instinctively look at your enemy using your head to target them.

I thought there'd be a full 3D Pokemon game, where you could explore the towns and catch Pokemon in the wild. Like Pokemon Snap but you're not in a vehicle. Do they have that yet? I don't think so. From what I've seen hasn't lived up to my imagination at least. So fucked.

[Anonymous No.7923217]

Continued

Astro also gives you added depth perception. Everyone always talks about how in Crash Bandicoot it's difficult to judge the distance of a jump due to the camera being right behind Crash. With VR, this isn't an issue. That added depth perception allows you to judge accordingly. A level that stands out to in Astrobot is one in which you're swallowed by a whale out in the middle of the ocean. You feel some genuine anxiety being in the bottomless ocean because of that added depth perception.

Seriously, Astrobot Rescue Mission is incredible. It really is the Super Mario 64 for VR and I don't say that lightly. If anyone here remembers the sense of excitement and potential that the jump to 3D made you feel, Astrobot evoked that same sense of wonder. It made me realize that 3D wasn't the endgame and that we could still make some big bold leaps to new exciting gaming frontiers.

Don't. I loved the original and only played it four years ago, without any nostalgia (because I had a N64). The remake slows down everything to a halt, making every story scene feel like padding (because it is). When important key events occur, the tension is completely destroyed due to the slow pace of the game and therefore, the story is without purpose. Sephiroth also appears every 5 seconds, making it feel like a fan-game. The game-play is also really shit and boring. This remake is terribly mediocre.

I think the sequence itself is hilarious, which is important because the original was just a back and forth fetch quest that would just be annoying in the larger environment of the remake. But the one thing that makes no sense is that the new version of the Honeybee Inn is way too upscale for the slums. In fact the entire Wall Market feels like a happier place overall compared to the original where it was clearly a sad escape from the reality of slum life where you went to a seedy corner to get a hooker dressed in a cheap costume. Now it's more like Las Vegas.

Though I guess that jives with the big twist. The whole game seems to have happier and more positive outcomes for everyone, which pisses off the time ghosts.

Not sure if you're being facetious but it's a scene in the original Honeybee Inn. It's actually arguably more gay than the remake since they actually strip Cloud for a bara bath scene as opposed to Remake's drag show.

I think the difference is that the original is played entirely for laughs while the remake insinuates a sexual fetish being fulfilled. Andrea Rhodea is under the impression Cloud wants to publicly be feminized and creates a song and dance number to make it happen. The combination of watching the actual "makeover" while Aeris cheers on and almost fucking climaxes makes it much more suggestive. Cloud is still an unwilling participant but the atmosphere it happens in makes it more like a sexual coming out kind of thing where Andrea will use the stage to fulfill the fetishes of a client in front of an audience.

When I was a kid in the 90's I thought that 2D platformers would never die and we'd just get better made licensed games in that genre and that the design philosophies of the 90's would never go away like >>7921140 had mentioned.

When I was a teenager in the early 2000's I thought that 3D action games would get to the point where QTEs would be a thing of the past, where the player can do anything and everything whenever they wanted.
It's also at this point that games like Dead or Alive, Oneechanbara, Rumble Roses and Red Ninja: End of Honor made me think that 3D coom games would be the future.

Sadly, I was disappointed far too much.

I thought games would be interactive movies called "games" packed full of micro transactions and day one docs that took like 3 hours of wading through bullshit and bloat before the game would actually start.

Describing it like this makes it a lot hotter than I thought. I'm now imagining what other stuff happens on that stage and what Aerith and Tifa would want. Maybe Aerith is secretly into bondage and wants Andrea to introduce her to it in public and there's a big Broadway production number where she's stripped of her evening gown and put into restraints and a collar for the very first time while an audience from the top plate watches and applauds. The fact that everyone is dressed to the 9s during this, except for Aerith who starts that way but ends the night naked, spanked, and exhausted, but still somehow the whole thing is dignified because it's a "proper" way to explore the fetish, makes it insanely hot.

I wasn't thinking about it to that level of depth but I guess that's plausible. The honey bee girls insist they aren't prostitutes and they probably aren't in that they don't have sex with customers but the stage shows likely get really salacious. The tagline is "where all your dreams come true" or some shit so I can imagine Andrea functioning as a sex genie granting people's wishes in the form of a burlesque club. It actually sounds like something that could plausibly exist even. But Aeris wouldn't be the sub. That's Tifa. Aeris would want to domme so they'd strip off her dress and replace it with a dominatrix outfit and her dance number would be her abusing sub men and women. Maybe Tifa would be one of them.

We'd still be in the "bit wars" and the "bits" in the consoles would keep going up. Beyond that I never really thought about it too much, I guess. Just figured games would continue to improve in terms of graphics. I didn't predict that FPS would leave the maze-and-key style or that there would be genres full of throwback games.

I expected to be able to communicate directly with the characters in games. I remember playing Ocarina of TIme and thinking it would be amazing to be able to talk to the characters directly and ask them for more hints on what to do etc. Then Hey you! Pikachu came out and I was blown away, expecting that tech to be advanced on continuously.

Later I played Morrowind and was impressed by the ability to use key words in conversation and that seemed to be an indication that despite no voice control, better communication with in game characters would be a thing.

Jump ahead to now and most games give you a radial dial with like 3-4 options and long voiced diatribes that barely matched what you selected.

ITT: You realize assuming you know what's really will ever be when we aren't even fucking type 1 on the Kardashev Scale is pure retardation and you deserve this bitter sweet feeling because you masterbated the ideal future instead of hoping for the best while accepting what will actually happen

The more I accept actual reality, the more I appreciate it. Shit like Futurama misses lots of logistical points like "mining out the sun directly" with something actually physically possible like a Dysonsphere/swarm or you know, aliens being everywhere you can meet without issue. How robots only seem to be as advanced as your average AI of today, just with more fluidly adaptable arms and limbs, but we know our "slick and shiny bias" would never make robots ever look like that, and thus, making waifubots more likely to be based on cartoon characters instead of real life humans like they actually covered once, but is clearly not likely how they will be used.

Just because we think of shit for the future, that does not mean it will happen as soon or later than you think it will happen. Some of this shit will likely never happen because they are retarded ideals, like nuclear weapons, as they likely have more of a chance to be recycled now that used ratio active elements can be properly turned back into useful energy.

I'd say it's not entirely lost. It's not directly recognizable, obviously, but the 90s Final Fantasy games all had a distinctive look compared other games of its era.

For some comparisons:
Breath of Fire series
Quartet games: Soul Blazer, Terranigma, Illusion of Gaia
Dragon Quest (they were on V and VI at the time)
Phantasy Star series

To be clear, I'm not criticizing the artwork of those games, either concept or sprites, but they all share a lot more in common as far as approach to coloring and character design than Final Fantasy even if you're only looking at sprites and portraits. They're all much closer to the anime standard of the early 90s.

Yes. You can easily get into a sexual rut when your sex life has no real variety. And, no, different kinds of porn doesn't count as "variety." Listen, no shitpost, you need to reset your dick by leaving your norm. I'm not even gay but I got on grindr and found a passable tranny and her gay friend to domme and humiliate me and it worked. Yes, "ha ha you're actually gay" but seriously the effect was that I got rock hard just by the novelty. It kickstarted my sex drive again and it's very easy to find partners for random sex when you try gay shit. You won't want to go back to it even because your real sex drive will be revitalized and you can just start having normal missionary sex with women and enjoy it again. I don't know what the psychology behind it is but it feels like a dick reboot where you shock it into action by subjecting it to something out of it's wheelhouse and it remembers what it's job is again. And, no, I don't feel compelled to do it again and regular straight porn makes me cum buckets now.

Arc the Lad series on PS1 where you carry your party forward through games. It made the collection pretty neat. And of course the Xenosaga series. It's more common than you think.

I think the true, theoretical "ideal" of VR games would be something that you control directly with your mind, which I still don't imagine that we're anywhere close to yet. As it stands, you're right: You're always going to be aware that you're just sort of standing around with a TV shoved in your face, playing video-games more-or-less the same way you always have. But the appeal of actual Ready Player One-style VR is going on an adventure and feeling like you're on that adventure.

>>7924351
I've always thought the world would be a better place if, instead of Advent Children, we had gotten a gritty 90s OVA released maybe a couple of years after the game itself.

Unfortunately, aside from ultra-autistic flight and racing simulators, it seems that the only profitable market for VR is to make retarded games that use the motion controls.
The developers of Everspace made a VR version of their game, where you pilot a fucking spaceship, and retards complained that you couldn't flap your arms like a gorilla.

I remember the FF series being so insanely popular during the PS1 era that I always had conversations with my friends at school of what other types of games could be RPG's just like the FF games.
We always thought how cool it would be if there was a Sonic RPG secretely in the works. We brought up the topic ALL the time. We always wondered what would happen if Square made a Sonic RPG just like how they made a Mario RPG.
The reality that we eventually got was unfortunate compared to what we actually envisioned.

Vr motion controls are actually pretty great though. Much more effective than the Wii. Its especially cool for games with advanced physics.

[Anonymous No.7939008]

>>7939001
Really what would be really cool is if the hand tracking feature of the quest 2 was used in combination with a steering wheel or flight joystick. As cool as using real controllers is with VR, not being able to see your hands interact with them breaks the immersion.

how can you do that?

[Anonymous No.7939808]

>>7939001
Yes, sure, but unless you have a 1:1 scale room or a treadmill you are always somehow constrained and it makes it awkward. This >>7939008 would be the ideal solution, at least for cockpit games.

In the 90s, those SGI renders for Donkey Kong Country, Super Mario 64, etc seemed like an unattainable future.
The PS2 generation kind of satisfied those expectations for me if I'm being honest.

[Anonymous No.7940000]

>>7939990
god, all I want right now is a game that looks like an those SGI renders, but in real time, plastic lighting and all
which is odd, because back in the day, I hated that shit and thought in-engine graphics looked way better because they didn't look like glossy plastic (if only because the lighting was nowhere near advanced enough to look like any actual material)

[Anonymous No.7940037]

Its still very rough but there's a Super Mario 64 project trying to do exactly this.

That kid would be rolling on the floor in his own sick. Early VR was hell with motion sickness. Add to that the nonsense rotation around the bats. Nonsense.
