Lol.

VR is still popular, more popular than ever. It's just being driven by Meta, Sony and maybe Valve.

This is more of a Microsoft failure.

GT7 and also fuk you.

Honestly i'm ok with it staying niche. It will help keep the metaverse battleship at bay(even though there is tons more to metaverse). Its a cool experience to play here and there, but not something i'd want to play all the time like i do normal games.

But i'd say Call of the Mountain and GT7 are both huge must plays.  Those are the only 2 real wow moments i've ever had in VR so far.

How do most games handle falling off edges? You want to let people lean over cliffs and look down, but they can't just levitate forever?

I have to imagine either just not moving the player or having them levitate.

I hope in Hapax I can come up with a cooler solution.

I'm really looking forward to going down the rabbit hole and trying out a bunch of vr games if I end up making vr dlc.

a lot of games cliffs are basically invisible walls preventing players from falling. 

else falling is a "gameplay mechanic".
