  1. Ross I have some questions I'd like to ask you for the videochat, but I'll leave them here so you can have them beforehand and address them then. I think they'd be as interesting for everyone as there are for me.

    If you could answer them all please do, if not maybe answer some here of in future videochats. Thanks

     

    Hi Ross, I have a few questions I would like to ask.

     

    Hey there. Just was wondering if you two could pick your best 3 or 4 questions to ask and then we can hold those other questions until the next one. We'd like to get through all the questions if possible.

     

    Also, if you have any questions you'd like to pre-submit, go ahead and do so by sending them to [email protected] ASAP so I can compile them and get them into a format Ross likes it to be in.

     

    Thanks! 8-)

  2. The story of a man who, for some unknown reason, only seems to exist during the month of November. As he watches the clock, on November 30, 2015 at 11:59:59PM, the clock suddenly advances to November 1, 2016 12:00:00 AM. For him, there is no seeming pause in his life, but for everyone around him, he vanishes from the face of the Earth for 11 months. He must adapt to the suddenly advancing world around him. And the people around him.

    I'd watch that film, would he age only during that month having him live 12x longer than everyone else, or is something else going on?

     

    The image in my head on this film is that, since there's no seeming pause in his life, he would live his normal lifespan...but with the time advancing around him, he'd live for hundreds of years. He'd need to find out WHY this is happen before everyone he loves has died or he can find a way to accept what's happening to him--I haven't worked out all those details. ;)

  3. Ability to teleport anywhere I choose. Probably would use it for selfish purposes, but never for evil purposes (I wouldn't rob a bank by teleporting into and out of a bank vault, for example)--I just hate spending time commuting.

     

    Is that boring?

     

    Either that or an extended (but not infinitely long) life span. Maybe a thousand years or perhaps control the time of my death. I can be immortal until I choose to end it. I'd use it, again, for selfish (but never evil) purposes.

  5. Okay, seriously now (for me): I believe Hell, if it exists, would be personalized for everyone. It wouldn't be the same for each person because everyone has their own idea of what Hell is. Heaven, I believe, would be the same way. There would be no possibility of "enjoying" Hell. If you enjoy the company of other people, Hell would be complete aloneness forever. If you enjoy solitude, it'd be people not leaving you any breathing room. If you hate the heat, it'll be scorching. If you hate cold weather, it'll be an icebox. If you hate rats...well, how about being buried in them forever? If you hate liberals, Bernie Sanders is your leader and you are forced to do everything he wants you to do.

     

    And so on.

     

    Heaven, again, would be the same. Not everyone would enjoy the "fluffy cloud, harp-playing" stereotype, though some might and they'd get that.

     

    Eventually, I think the two places would merge because boredom would win out overall. So, eventually, boredom would reign supreme because you've already done everything that can be done. In Star Trek, the Q Continuum is described this way. No one talks to anyone because everything that could be said HAS been said. Nobody does anything because everything that could be done HAS been done. Stagnation is the end result of both locations.

     

    And that's Hell.

  6. I don't know how the release version of the Oculus or the Vive are going to handle it, but something else that sprung to mind, seeing Ross's screenshots here (especially those trees on Endor), is another issue I have with the DK2:

     

    Lack of antialiasing.

     

    This is one thing that can also break immersion. On the DK2, the jaggy lines frequently break immersion for me. I know AA is more computationally expensive, and to do that with two huge-res screens is even moreso, but I hope that they're going to address AA in VR.

  7. FINAL CALL

     

    For any winner that has not yet received their game and/or sent me their list, you have until the end of day on February 1st to get your list to me at [email protected]. Any winners who have not contacted me at that address with their games list when my clock (US-Pacific) switches over to February 2nd will be considered a "Pass".

     

    As before, you can see the currently available list of games here:

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EMuD9pt7L-uoZl3tmb9JtLqvZHTECsFeOM0vttlTA50/edit?usp=sharing

     

    Congrats to all the winners. I hope those that got their games are enjoying them. And I hope to hear from the rest of you very soon.

  8. Just a further update on this:

     

    We are almost done! I have three people in the Silver Tier and two in the Bronze Tier that have not yet provided a list of games. I am waiting for responses from the other people in the Bronze Tier (those with italicized names that are still black).

     

    I would like to get everyone their games so if you could respond back so I can get you those games, that'd be great!
