I saw footage of Quake in fisheye on youtube:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lijrCPBC2Gg

It felt so immersive . I was wondering why there aren't FPS games in fisheye. It seems like a small amount of fisheye would increase peripheral vision and make it more realistic.

Say for example fortnite a very popular game that has chests in which upon opening you get a randomly generated loot,

If i were to open a Chest and got a certain item and then If i were to go back in time before i opened the chest and waited like 10seconds to open it would i still get the same item or a different one?

I know the anwser may be very obvious and the question really dumb but its one of those things i somehow never understood

Not sure if this is the right subreddit. But I was curious. How close are we on a scientific level to getting a full dive into a VR world, like those in games and anime? Something where you are "in" world and experiencing it real time? Be has so many amazing possibilities, I wonder how far along are we, until we get something truly earth shattering.

Hey everyone! I am conducting a study for a psychology class called senior thesis. I would love anyone who is willing to take my survey. It is mostly focusing on Millennials (born between 1981 and 2000) but anyone who wants to take it (over 18 and currently enrolled in university/college/etc.) can. Thank you all so much! (P.S. This study is not mobile friendly. I apologize for any inconvenience)

It occurred to me recently that one of the most impractical things in online gaming is moderating voice chat. There are just too many players and not enough incentive to enforce standards.

I came across a post regarding girls and women playing games like CoD online and the type and content of the verbal abuse they receive just for “sounding female” is insane.

It doesn’t seem too technologically “far off” to think of an auto-moderation system to moderate abusive language—even being able to achieve subtleties between “reasonable” and “unreasonable” antagonism seems like it could be achievable on the near-term (5-10 years).

Had there been any recent developments or discussion in this regard?

If you're a game dev, do you think that games nowadays are too bloated with unnecessary content?

I am trying to find a MIDI version of the Reactor Tribe Remix. I want to change all of the synth and bass tracks to guitar to give it a heavy sound while keeping most of the old sounds and effects that tribe added. I cannot seem to find the MIDI of his remix anywhere on the internet, so I'm hoping someone here might have one that I can mess around with.

I have noticed how Franklin‘s moms house from gtav is Almost the same as The house from tattletale couldn’t find any images

Is it easy enough to modify and can they improve upon it?

How come it’s been roughly 60 years of videogame history I have not seen one game where a character Audibly Adresses the player character by their assigned username

it’s only ever done in text and verbally your refered to as something generic (hero,dude,guy,etc)

you’d think this would atlesst change with AI I know Voice Acting used to limit this as a possible feature,but considering the recent Rise of Ai there could at least of been an tempt to add this as a feature

because verbally calling the main character something generic like Hero is fairly Imersion Breaking like why get us to make a username at all specifically I’m referring to games like (Skyrim,Fallout,Where winds meet,Fable,etc)

If you have an answer as to why it hasn’t or can’t be done pls tell me and if there is hope for future games to have this feature using Ai or whatever pls also tell me would love to see this as a new feature

Hey guys, I’m working on a Minecraft thesis and I need some help from you.
If you have played Minecraft Dungeons and Minecraft: Creative Mode, or if you are considering playing them, I kindly ask you to fill out a simple form that will take 5–6 minutes after playing. I am trying to analyze the difference between these two games from the perspective of the players. So, I give my thanks to those who wants to join the player experience test it. May the Creeper not blow you up!
