My knee jerk reaction is that the rumors I heard that the game isn't in a good place might be more then rumors. That sucks, I was really excited for this one, I hope it turns out great.

Always saying the quiet part out loud.

Just as the company who's offering the service is motivated by the all consuming need to make money, so to is the journalist strives to make click bait to drive revenue. So the wheel turns.

This service is creepy as hell though, anything that's literally a black mirror episode should probably be reconsidered as a product or service.

It's predatory, and even worse, will prevent some people from healing through grief. The future kinda sucks.

Oh man! It's releases on all platforms at once, even PC!!! Normally PC comes out like a year later. That's fantastic!

I know, my best friend and I were watching like hawks, waiting for the traditional 1 year to elapse for a US console release. Normally it's 1 year after Japan's release then it comes out in the US on Playstation. Then 6 months too a year later it comes out on PC. It's wonderful it'll come out on PC at the same time as the consoles. That way my best friend and I can play on PCs in the same room, get better FPS, and larger screens since we won't need to split screen for local coop.

Some background on me, I'm a IT geek, I love technology, I love VR, not a huge fan of apple. I couldn't understand the use case for the Vision Pro, especially given battery life and other odd little limitations. The hardware sounded absolutely amazing, some incredible features, but Apple really wanted to distance the headset from VR, and instead was pushing this weird idea that you'd just sit and use the head in an Augmented Reality style interface for their eco system. Imagine wearing this thing during your child's first birthday in order to capture a 3d video.

It's a shame, but it's a solution looking for a problem. If they would have leaned hard into the incredible hardware to be a killer VR headset too, that may have helped a little bit. But as everyone else is saying.... I'm not surprised by this outcome.
