Wow! Okay, so this might seem like a stretch, but this game reminds me of this toy I saw in the early 2000's that was a number of electronic boxes with stick figures in them. You could rearrange them however you wanted and they would interact and play and fight and stuff on small little screens. I always wanted them because I liked how you could stack them in any way you wanted, and the little characters on screen would change about. I never got that toy when I was younger, so I feel that getting this game will give me closure.


All in all, amazing art style and very original idea :)

EDIT: After some quick searching, the toy I was talking about is called Radica's Cube World!

So the average gamer or their parent has to:

  1. Have the knowledge and ability to collect computer parts and piece it together like "Legos"

  2. Make sure that their motherboards are compatible with the right cpu bundle and chipset. Or maybe they should get a combo? But which one?

  3. Learn the basics of a free operating system on their machine (Linix) (cause paying over $100.00 for Windows will eat into their budget)

    Or they can pay 400 bucks and have something ready for them right out of the box plus a game.

    The fact that you'd have to spend countless hours for a foundational knowledge base then spend the time putting the parts for the PC together after you've gone out and bought all the parts isn't worth it for console gamers then trouble shoot the damn thing (cause let's face it, maybe once every hundred builds does the thing fire up without a hitch.

    And what performance level are you willing to play the game at? Sure, let's forget the 980. I was talking about just myself. Let's go with an older model. Something cheaper. Say a 750ti. That will cost me $120 - $130 on average, but now I've to make sure I'm powering it and my cpu with a enough juice from a PSU that could cost around $60.00 for a decent corsair mid range 550W. Now you've to get ram...hmmm, HDD, mobo/cpu combo... (cause, shit, i need to get it bundled to make my life easier) case, and I'm assuming you'll just jack in some cheap "gaming" headphones to the back of the mii tower where the onboard sound card's audio jack is exposed instead of buying any speakers cause that's just an extra costs (or maybe play with no sound at all) that'll take me over my gaming budget for my kid already. And who cares about a monitor? If I was gonna hookup the Ps4 to the living room tv, might as well do the same for this sweet new rig right? (Good luck having mom allow that).

    What's that? Your kid wants an exclusive AAA game? Well crap, now when I'm finished finding out how to install that Loonex or Linez or whatever it's called operating system into this machine successfully, let me get this thing called "steam" downloaded and then hopefully, with a fast enough internet connection, I can download Doom for him within the next 2-3 hours so he can play. Well, let's slap on another $60.00 right there.

    What's that? You need a mouse and keyboard? Well shit, there's another $30.00 if you wanna go a cheap yet acceptable route. Man all this price comparing has got me sweating up a storm. Oh yeah, shipping costs? Taxes? Now you're at $530-$600. What if something is DOA? What if I don't get all my parts? I was so ready to start playing Legos!! Now my kid is upset!

    Let's put all this shit together now. Oh crap! It won't boot. Well, let me check my physical setup. Did I get the right ram? What clock speed should it be?

    Maybe I should have bought a bundled steam machine system from Alienware? Wait! That's still like $230 bucks more than the Ps4! Grrrrrrrr! I just want to buy something for my kids to play!

So the two big ones are HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, those are the only two consumer VR headsets that really shine right now. Rift is having a crazy summer sale right now, $400 on Amazon, which gets you the headset, camera sensors, and hand controllers.

Personally, I have the HTC Vive due to some issues I have with Oculus's business platform. Namely, they're owned by Facebook and are trying to pull a console-esque exclusive games deal.

But, personal qualms aside, I can't really recommend the Vive for $800 over the Rift for $400. Especially if you're playing seat games like flight simulators, that's the much much better option right now.

I'm super into VR so any questions feel free to ask away.

The game is called Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Siege, inspired by the novel released in the 90s, though they don't share characters or settings.

I don't know if you'd consider it "decent" or not, but it's not too bad to figure out if you're into it or not.

I have been using it for years now. I prefer gaming with a controller I can lean all the way back and kick my feet up. Conflicted on how I'm going to play first person view in GTAV for PC, I hate playing any fps with a controller unless it's an rpg. A

But prefer driving and flying with a controller, GTA has been like that though.

$8 on Amazon. No multiplayer so even a used copy would be fine.

If you own a Vive then you already have the controllers. But if you're on Oculus or OSVR you'll have to buy them separately. I don't think you can buy Vive controllers yet but there's also Oculus Touch and Leap Motion, though Leap requires you to have your hands in front of your headset to work. HTC is also working on improved controllers that can sense individual fingers, but personally I've had no issues manipulating objects in VR space with the current controller solutions we have. I

tl;dr: Buy the Oculus Touch controllers if you don't have a Vive.

"That's the last time I buy shorts from Calabi-Yau."

u/Strazdas1 · 1 pointr/GamePhysics

according to description of this

Steam account required for game activation and installation

So i guess it gives you steam code.
