nDreams CEO, Patrick O’Luanaigh (@patrickol) said, “We’re very proud of Aurora and the success it has had so far. We certainly didn’t expect to have so many visitors in such a short timeframe. The space itself is still in a very early stage; we have so much more planned for Aurora........."
British Ghostbusters VR studio nDreams has been fully acquired by video gaming group Aonic for $110 million.
Ndreams also made the really solid game synapse one of my favourite VR games to date. I hope this serves then well
Other "game-type metaverse" projects in the works
Would love PlayStation Home 2 on PS5 with seamless transitions between different areas.
Yeah, although I’m worried if it does come back idiots will say it’s jumping on the metaverae trend not realising it did this years ago
They'd have a hard time doing that if it's called Playstation Home 2. That raises the question of what the first one was.
Given you're talking about online speeds and connectivity, not the PS5 itself, you're not escaping loading screens.
SSD speeds so quick you could open a door in PS Home to walk your Avatar through a portal to launch a game.
They could do something like Peach's Castle in Mario 64 and your library of titles are the portraits
@ Jin:” Would love PlayStation Home 2 on PS5 with seamless transitions between different areas.”
I second that plus a vr option added to it
There's still IMVU and Second Life but they're not quite like PS Home. Btw folks the Home restoration project is still going and they have brought Home back online through the PS3 emulator. So if y'all interested in goin back HOME there's that.
He just said it was ahead of its time. Super slow HDD made it awful when traversing areas.
It was trash 🗑️ and it still is. Walking around to go into stores etc is cringe and makes no sense at all. The hype around metaverse is totally overblown
@OptimusDK
You don’t speak for everyone. Many people enjoyed it. But I do agree with the Metaverse being overblown.
@OptimusDK You don’t know what you’re talking about. This was a good place to meet people.
As good as it was It missed the opportunity of becoming huge... Imagine if just eat or similar and you could order food from within checking out menus of local restaurants, Or items direct from Amazon etc whilst in shop in game checking out the items in real time, or even clothes from your favourite shops. The thing could have been Enormous ! I realise it could be dangerous in over spending but hell kids max out parents cards on fortnite, just need to keep control of them.
Virtual reality developer and publisher NDreams has made its first acquisition, picking up Brighton-based Near Light for an undisclosed sum.
