As someone with 5,000 hours logged into virtual reality as of 2025, your comment leaves me a little confused. 😵💫
You mean "VR Ready" as like, a marketing terminology, right?
Because high-quality, full-body motion tracking virtual reality is available to everyone today for around $3,000-$5,000. It used to cost $140,000 in 1996.
Doing the speed limit while cruising in the middle lane is the proper way to travel in the United States, or just going with the flow of traffic. Being predictable is safe.
If the road you're on has a 80 MPH speed limit however, and people are doing 90-100 in the left lane (+10-20) it is exceedingly difficult to pass someone without temporarily going high speeds yourself.
The latest LD&R season is utterly forgettable. It's like mediocre digital art student summer projects, designed to build up a portfolio, there's no rhyme or substance to it, just all style or visual demonstration.
The enormous irony here would be if the author used a generative tool to write the article criticizing them, and whoever commented that he doesn't get the point is exactly right -- it's like 6 to 10 pages of analogies to unrelated topics.
You don't need that much traction on a high gravity planet and the two extra wheels become unnecessary.
On the Moon, Mars, or anywhere else where the gravitational acceleration is below 5 m/s², you want six wheels, because at least two of them will always not contact the ground due to poor traction and movement over uneven terrain.
"Not joking nor serious" is either facetiousness or sarcasm.
In either case, it's a black flag for Machiavellianism (belief in the superiority of oneself and/or inferiority of others) which is on the Dark Triad Cluster of antisocial behavior.
I've played pretty much every shooter and most multiplayer ones since 1994.
The main issue with extraction shooters is that they are hardcore PvP-focused with resources lost and resources gained on every match.
Given that players lose actual lifetime from dying to another player in an extraction shooter, this creates an impetus for many players to cheat, given the asymmetrical distribution of skill in online shooters (it is statistically supposed be a perfect bell curve with everyone being average).
Without robust anti-cheat (e.g: Invasive kernel-level AC like Valorant/FaceIT and borderline malware) every and any extraction shooter becomes a cheater-ridden hellhole, where all of the resources of every match or map are funneled into the hands of a few players.
Players burned on prior titles know this ahead of time and throw their hands up in the air and say: "Great, another shitty extraction shooter".
Literally just happened
