Banner Saga 3 for me. 👾

So this is going to be your new "thing", is it?. Calling games that aren't VR-based "Retro style"? You know it appears that VR headsets appear to be down year on year compared to last year, right? It's more likely that VR is going to once again be relegated to a niche of PC gaming than it is to become mainstream as it stands right now.

"Retro style" bothers you, I take it?

Bother's me? Not in the least. But it is silly, considering it's something that him and possibly a few other... "extreme VR enthusiasts" came up with it to take a dig at the way 99% of games are played as if playing video games on a television in 2018 is old-fashioned and playing games on VR headsets is the new standard.

Octopath Traveler without question. It is my next game after Horizon Zero Dawn and is already preordered.

Retro style game?.

Spider-Man is a new game.

He's likely right that vr or something akin to it will be the new standard way to play games  relatively in the near future so I don't consider it a dig at all. Early adapters always talk as if what they're doing is the normal.

VR will probably never be the standard way to play games. Sony hasn't even managed to sell 3 million VR headsets in over 1.5 years, it's looking at a less sales in its second year than its first year at this point, and they have made the most popular VR headsets by far. This is is this standard? An add-on that begins to reach its saturation point after a year?

You're right about VR as it is now because it's incomplete or a just a meager step towards what it will be. No doubt, once it or a similar tech gets fairly close to the ideal version of vr, playing games on a tv will become retro. It will have the ideal level of immersion the vast majority of gamers crave for. 

Only Octopath Traveler for me this month.
