What I think truly fascinates me about Summer Lesson is its reliance on social interactions. Just transporting you to a place and letting you be there.
No dungeon-delving, no horror scenarios, no exploring strange, alien worlds. But Summer Lesson looks like it’s trying to be different. VR is going to be a big part of our EGX coverage this year, and I’m excited to step into these worlds and see what they’ve got to offer. And they all look kinda the same, don’t they?ĭon’t get me wrong, I’m excited for these games as much as I’m excited for this technology. The Assembly, Pollen, Kitchen, Crystal Rift, and many, many more. As the VR race reaches its inevitable climax, with the launch of at least three headsets due within the next six or so months, we’ve seen a ramp up in the number of VR games. I’m sure there are already a myriad of posts at “those” sites that are decrying the whole thing as creepy, but there’s something a little bit wonderful about Summer Lesson. I’ve watched the trailer a couple of times and I’m fascinated by the concept.
Listening to her talk, nodding your head to interact and answer questions, and really just chill. It seems to be a game that invites you to strap on a virtual reality headset and do nothing more than hang out with a girl. Summer Lesson, which was last seen being presented at E3 as a tech demo for Playstation VR (then known as Project Morpheus), is truly fascinating. I know it’s probably a dumb thing to say about a Japanese gaming show, but there was a weird trailer at TGS this year.
