      Dudes, I listened to the whole podcast while at the gym, and as a VR enthusiast it's the most interesting interview I listened/watched in a very long time! Also the game looks gorgeous on PC and as a PSVR2 user I hope that it performs well on it too! The whole UE4 and eye-tracked FR thing as well as the whole interview makes me confident that it won't be a half baked port! I subscribed to both of your channels and shared the video on PSVR subreddit, hoping that it gives the game even just a little more visibility. Really hope that PSVR2 community helps your game growing up and that it will be a positive experience for you as a developer as well as for players. The sword combat and ennemies could help it reach a larger audience for sure, but you guys got me hyped just for the creative part and artistical achievement 😁 Will be here on day one! 💪 Kudos to both of you!

    I really appreciated the time around ~42:00 where you asked about burnout and such. Its always interesting to me to hear about how people stay motivated to work on something over months, and years. I wish we talked about this more as a culture, because it seems like some people are better able to do this than others. I would love to be better at this, but I tend to get bored easily, and then the task becomes a chore. I can slog through it, but slogging through is no way to do creative work. We should feel excited and inspired, and I often don't!

    Love these real developer interviews, very interesting. Disheartening that I never saw this game mentioned outside of this channel. What would a big marketing budget help? Where would you spend it? If it would have a guaranteed return it would be an easy investment. It seems like marketing is just another job a studio would hire a few people for full time.

    Juat watched the full 2 and a half hours. Couple of things; I'm kind of disappointed the dev doesn't want to make another game after Cyube VR, though I understand his reasons, maybe if he gets a team he will change his mind! Second thing is I think you should make a top 10 or whatever list of "The best VR games that you didn't know existed" as there are plenty of cool games that fly under the radar, maybe even a list of games that add or approach something in a different way to the norm.

    What a great interview. This was, unironically, a meeting of the minds.
    Only the assumption that PSVR2 will be making VR more affordable and main stream as well as every game being ported there has aged poorly - sadly.
    One can only hope that eye-tracking for PSVR2 on PC will somehow be added and used by developers...

    @carpetfluff35 5 місяців тому +1

    The issue of people viewing eye-tracked foveated footage is a concern, but it should still be more about what the players see than the audience. To be honest, a lot of VR games don't look that great on a flatscreen in general and a lot of creators don't think about how what looks smooth to them in the headset is just a twitchy headache inducing mess to watch when it's not in a 360 degree space. It's why a lot of people who've never tried a headset write it off easily, because stuff they see just does nothing to convince them it's worthwhile.

    • @maxgrieve
      @maxgrieve 5 місяців тому

      Yes, this is such a good point - that was probably the biggest thing that struck me when finally taking the plunge and trying VR (after watching a fair bit of social-screen footage beforehand). The sense of scale and depth perception I was kinda anticipating, but the fact of how nailed into the environment you feel came as a surprise; looking around is the turn of *your* head, rather than watching the turn of someone else's head via one degree of separation. That feels like such a stupid and obvious thing to say, but it's such a major part of the immersion that can't really be imagined if you've never tried it.

      Discord servers for UA-camrs usually end up as a "personality cult" where everything revolves around the creator, yet the creators themselves act as a sort of invisible god who refuses to interact with the community because they're too big of a rock star. I hate it. You join the Discord to interact with the creator, and then you end up just talking to everyone but the creator.

    I'm a developer so this might be a unique experience, but when I tried cyubeVR I was immediately put off by the fact that the hand models are the default developer SteamVR hands that are included with the OpenVR package for demonstration purposes, just retextured. I took it as a red flag of laziness and decided I wouldn't continue playing.
    I think this is something the developer should consider. Though perhaps non-developers don't notice or know about these kinds of things. For a game that prides itself on its beauty, it should really try to implement a unique hand model that fits the visual aesthetic of the rest of the game.
    It's good to see the game is deeper and the developer is more thoughtful than that, so I may give it another go, but it can be a bad look to use internal developer assets as the final assets.
    I also disagree with the developer here; again, as a developer myself who also plays a lot of VR games, I also assume (rightly) that VR games that released, say, pre-2019 or 2020 would likely not utilize my Index controllers properly, would do old "VR infancy" type things like make your hands disappear when you pick up objects, no smooth movement, and so forth.
