Oculus + Kinect + Skyrim

Get rid of those controllers with this new mod that allows users to truly immerse themselves in the world of skyrim.

This is a small preview of what to expect at E3

Muffins12234441d ago

Thats a little to much for me Hahaha

DA_SHREDDER4440d ago (Edited 4440d ago )

agreed, dude looks like a total douche, lmao

konnerbllb4440d ago (Edited 4440d ago )

Who cares what he looks like, are you looking for a date?

malokevi4440d ago

I think its a cool idea. The way he moves forward would destroy my neck, though.

Jyndal4440d ago

Jeez...when are people, as well as game designers, going to get the idea?

When I want to do something physical, I go outside and hike. When I want to veg out on the couch, I game.
Simple, really.

Bigpappy4440d ago

I got an idea. Just don't buy the game.

SilentNegotiator4440d ago (Edited 4440d ago )

Great idea!

SilentNegotiator4440d ago

No wait, buy the game (on PC), but not the other stuff.

elhebbo164440d ago

I have to disagree, some of us like the immersion. and sometimes real life is just, well, boring.

malokevi4440d ago

Yea and when I wanna go to war I just hop on the next plane to Syria with weapons and ammunition.

Shadonic4440d ago

Then do that there really not forcing it unless the entire game only works with kinect. your speaking as if bethesda didn't release the game without any kinect functionality a year ago. Stop hating on anything that's motion controlled and open your eyes you still have your base options you love to play with, you just want to complain. I love crashing out on the couch for hours playing games and eating snacks as much as the next guy but that dosnt mean you should just totally cast away the ones that do enjoy that style of playing the game because it gives them a better sense of immersion of walking through skyrim then your normal couch and controller does.

Hmmm, these fads often come back every decade or so, I remember in the 80's virtual reality was big, in the 90's it was big again, especially with movies and things like Virtual Boy, and now I guess it's time for it to come back for a bit.

Scenarist4440d ago (Edited 4440d ago )

hopefully tech has advanced to the point where it can be done proper ..

the way I see it , we are to the point were we just need to get latency down to within a few ms and all is looking good

fr0sty4440d ago (Edited 4440d ago )

I think it's here to stay this time. This is the first time it's been tried where the hardware was actually powerful enough to render a convincing virtual world that wasn't a bunch of untextured polygons or monochrome 2d or basic wireframe 3d with no textures.

Not to mention the first time true head tracking without nasty lag has been available in a commercial VR kit.

chobit_A5HL3Y4440d ago

this stuff is always better in theory lolz having to play actual games like this is unpractical and a novelty at best. imo, anyways~ this is the stuff you'd show off to people when they come over to your house, but i'd say the majority of people just like to sit back and play their games rather than lean and wave their arms around~

MS could compress their games on disc

raWfodog47d ago (Edited 47d ago )

Skyrim is still my favorite ES game. I’m playing through it again right now since I never finished it.

jznrpg37d ago

Morrowind is by far my favorite. But I’m getting old and played Daggerfall Morrowind and Oblivion before Skyrim

ActualWhiteMan47d ago

Yeah totally. Definitely won’t be hacking it Nintendo 🤞🏻

Fallout and Skyrim show us that talented developers make great games when you leave them alone

That judicious lack of oversight permeated everything in Bethesda's RPGs, in a positive fashion.

Christopher76d ago

I much prefer a left alone Obsidian and Larian Studios. Bethesda's formula has grown old for me.

anast74d ago

Larian hit another level with DOS:2 and then took it even further with BG3. They do high quality work.

jznrpg75d ago (Edited 75d ago )

Skyrim was a letdown compared to previous games and so was Fallout 4

Kosic74d ago

I agree, I found it an interesting game. But nowhere near worth the hype (unless you include mods)

dmonee75d ago

Skyrim blew my mind when it released. That game took me to the gaming, promisedland. Going back to it when it was updated for the PS5, it felt slightly rough around the edges, but great for its time

TheColbertinator74d ago

We should leave Obsidian alone. Bethesda on the other hand should be kept under constant psychiatric observation.

anast74d ago

Skyrim feels like the game was made in a hurry with a disorganized team.
