Anders Østergaard is pretty pessimistic abt. the future of VR in games. Mostly we're creating gimmicky rollercoasters for a market with very few users. #PLAY2017
Compassion! Thats the unique thing made possible by storytelling in VR according to Kane Lee #PLAY2017

VR Storytelling according to Kane Lee: "VR storytelling, at its most inspired, is more than just technology to look at the world differently" #PLAY2017

Experiencing animation in VR made the users interact with the films much more than usually - making eye contact with the characters, imitating them etc. #PLAY2017

However - VR is actually on track to have same adoption rate as comparable technologies - VCR's and home computers f.ex. #PLAY2017
Barriers to entry: Low awareness - only 16% of US consumers have tried a VR device. No compatible devices - 31% of US consumers don’t own a VR-compatible device (phone, computer) Price - Hardware is too expensive. #PLAY2017
The three "big" VR headsets - Vive, Oculus & PlaystationVR only sold approx. 1.4M headsets last year. Samsung Gear VR beat them w. 4.5M sold units. Pretty similar picture expected for 2017. A lot of people are waiting for 2nd gen hardware #PLAY2017

SuperData is still expecting huge growth, but significantly less than the early estimates. It’s going to take more time, and this means, that people are risking loosing enthusiasm. #PLAY2017


Next up is @carterrog, Senior Analyst at @_SuperData taking about "The state of VR - What developers need to know" #PLAY2017

#VR is the new meeting place for film- and games people. Simon Løvind #dfi #play2017 #creativeeurope

According to Simon Løvind of @DFIgameoffice while planning and curating the #PLAY2017 seminar, they encountered a bit of reluctancy at the developers they spoke with - they are still not ready to go all in on VR yet.
