ADR1FT Hands-on Preview – Virtual Space I The Koalition

Tony Polanco of The Koalition writes:
While at a recent 505 Games event in my home town of New York City, I got some hands-on time with ADR1FT. While the prospect of playing the game was enough to get me excited, the fact that it was playable on the Oculus Rift really got my attention. I’ve been skeptical about VR for some time now and I wanted to see if this game worked well with it. My time revealed a possible sleeper hit of the year as well as a convincing demonstration of what VR can do when implemented into an actual game.

When this game was first revealed at the Game Awards show, I was intrigued by how it would turn out. Hearing it has full VR support definitely interests me and I'm even more inclined to pick it up when it comes out now.

It has surely has come a long way, I look forward to its release.

I remember seeing the reveal for the first time and being awed at how the view of Earth below looked. Such cool visuals.

Whatever about Denuvo, this is an under-rated game.

Most likely the poor sales on pc and ps4 mean there's no more money to keep funding the development for Xbox one. They also cancelled the PSVR version.

darthv723136d ago

didn't even know it was for xb1. I thought it was PCVR / PSVR game.

@Kiwi

You are right.

The PSVR version is on hiatus... the devs also told fans to beg the publisher for PSVR support.

and the reviews weren't great either

I dunno, cost is a big deal! But I can still see the concerns the author has.

"a dark-skinned, Asian player may feel less immersed in the world seeing that the the player character, despite being a no-named blank canvas with which they’re meant to ‘project’ upon, has white hands. And what about female gamers, where the character is addressed by others in the game with male descriptors (dude, guy, man, etc.)? This only results in them feeling ‘hey, this game was not designed with me in mind"

garbage material, dont click on that trash.

Looking at the pic above...VR seems pretty diverse to me.

What the heck just happened? I clicked agree on a gangsta_red post!

Is the end of the world(?)

OC_MurphysLaw3212d ago (Edited 3212d ago )

FPS games have dealt with this same issue for many many years and guess what....its not really as big an issue as this article would lead you to believe.

The actual big issue for VR right now is the media hype has slowed a ton.... It's still the buzz word right now in gaming but its not nearly on the level it was pre-Oculus launch. Is it running out of steam or just coming back to reality? Likely a bit of both but more just coming back to reality as in, many are starting to look at this as not a viable primary way to game.
