It's time for Music of the Year! 2024 was absolutely stacked with game releases. Some even felt it was one of the all-time best years in gaming. And the side effect of a year filled with excellent games means a year of excellent soundtracks. For this annual special, we let each panelist bring on three songs. Even so, how did we pick just nine today? It wasn't easy.2024 being such a great year for RPG music meant that one episode could not contain our Music of the Year celebrations, so we have split it into two back-to-back episodes. Enjoy the likes of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, Arco, Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, and much more today. Then come back next week for three more panelists' highlights of the year!Featuring: Mike Salbato, Hilary Andreff, Michael Sollosi, Gio Castillo, Patrick Gann; Edited by Mike SalbatoLinks for this episodeThe End of Service: A NieR Re[in]carnation Postmortem RetrospectivePat's Picks0:02:58 - The World's Heartbeat (comp.

Invitée : Morgane Reynier Interview et montage : Lam Son Image par Marion Bullot Une fois n'est pas coutume, Radio Rôliste parle d'une réédition, qui plus est un jeu déjà chroniqué dans l'émission RR#72. Nous recevons Morgane Reynier pour parler de son processus créatif et du retour en terres francophones de sur la route de Chrysopée, après une édition italienne et une édition anglophones de ce qui au départ était un pur jeu indépendant francophone. Sur la route de Chrysopée est un jeu de rôle épistolaire pour deux, c'est à dire qu'on s'envoie des lettres (ou des colis, ou des mails). On parle beaucoup du dispositif du jeu, car Morgane était l'une des première à créer un jeu épistolaire soutenu par un système de jeu construit. On parle un peu aussi du thème du jeu, l'alchimie, car la correspondance se fait entre un maître alchimiste puis de science qui ne peut voyager et son disciple qui part sur les routes du Monde Tout Autour à la recherche de la fabuleuse Chrysopée, la cité mythique de la connaissance. Sur la route de Chrysopée a un rapport particulier avec le monde réel, car une photo prise ou un galet ramassé dans notre monde, envoyé à l'autre joueur, devient un élément du Monde Tout Autour. Et le Monde Tout Autour grandit et s'enrichit grâce aux archives suspendues, une bibliothèque qui existe dans le jeu, mais qui dans notre monde est un site internet où les joueuses peuvent envoyer les compte-rendus de leurs explorations ou les lettres qui ont fait la matière de leurs parties. Inspirations Les cités obscures, bande dessinée de François Schuiten et Benoît PeetersLes aventures de l'Oncle Ernest, jeu vidéoMyst et Riven, jeux vidéos On a aussi parlé de Montaillou, un livre sur un village cathareInto the woods, un autre jeu de MorganeUn jeu où on joue dans des sacs de couchage, aussi de MorganeL'illustratrice Marion BulotL'éditeur Nessun Dove Minute par minute 00:01:30 Histoire de la réédition00:07:56 Changement par rapport à la première édition00:09:50 Marion Bullot l'illustratrice00:12:53 Parcourt de Morgane Reynier00:17:08 Naissance de Chrysopée00:17:48 Inspirations esthétiques00:18:52 Inspirations système00:19:12 Inspirations épistolaires00:23:46 Retranscrire l'épistolaire00:25:53 Réenchenter le réel00:27:18 Contraintes de la conversation épistolaire00:30:23 Moments de jeu crées par Chrysopée00:35:50 Confort de passer par des lettres00:39:02 Avoir le temps00:40:47 Chrysopée par mail00:41:04 Jeu par forum00:44:12 Le monde et les personnages00:50:00 Les archives suspendues00:55:35 Audience internationale00:57:40 Réponse à un autre jeu ?01:00:19 Système de jeu et opposition01:03:46 Le conte01:06:43 Freeform01:07:26 Into the woods01:08:12 Jeu sacs de couchages01:11:04 GN01:12:41 Montaillou01:15:12 Foulancement01:15:49 Forme du jeu01:17:42 Pourquoi un foulancement ?01:20:51 Trouvaille d'ergonomie

I interviewed All I Know About Teacher Li director Zhuzmo at Venice Immersive 2024. Due to the sensitivities of the topic of Chinese censorship, then the director Zhuzmo has requested that he remain anonymous. I did an interview face to face with them in Venice, got a transcript, and then fed the text back into a text-to-speech AI at Eleven Labs in order to mask his voice. See more context in the rough transcript below. All I Know About Teacher Li also happened to top the unofficial Venice Immersive 2024 Survey results that I did in collaboration with XR Must for both the Top 5 as well as for the Audience Favorites. I found last year's survey results to be really useful in organizing the order of discussing pieces in our critic's roundtable, but also helping to understand the audience's reaction to the selection. Last year there were 50 respondents, and this year there were 82 respondents who on average saw 21.9 experiences each. Here's a list of the Most Seen experiences from Venice Immersive 2024, which is sort of a proxy for popularity and buzz, but also throughput. The next result is the audience favorites (no limit), which is calculated by how many people listed it as a favorite relative to how many saw it. This tends to have the most robust overview of the entire selection, and is also an interesting calibration process to see what you personally liked vs what might have been favored by the zeitgeist.  Finally the top 5 ranking usually is a proxy for seeing which projects might have been in the running for a jury prize, but there was a lot more variance this year, which was reflected in the range of projects that people were predicting to be a prize winner. The top prize from the jury was awarded to Ito Meikyu, which was ranked 10th by the audience. The second place from the jury went to Oto's Planet, which was ranked 5th. And then the third place from the jury went to Impulse: Playing with Reality, which was ranked 2nd. I find it increasingly difficult to predict what will resonate with the jury as even the audience favorites can vary widely from my own personal favorites. Again what resonates with you may not resonate with others, and there are so many other qualities and nuances of each project that can't be reduced down to numbers. Nonetheless, I found last year's survey results to be quite an interesting cross section and sometimes confirms an intuition and many other times can be surprising. Either way, it's additional data to help make sense of the selection and the industry. Here's my top 10 that I published after finishing watching all of the pieces on Wednesday, August 28th. I about watched 1/3 of the pieces ahead of the festival, 1/3 on the press preview, and the remaining 1/3 on the press & industry day and the first day bookings are available. Also, the essence of each project can't be reduced down to numbers, which is a big motivation that I have to record over 30 hours of coverage for Venice Immersive 2024 over the course of 5 days in order to unpack more of the design process, experiential design tradeoffs, and some of my own embodied experiences and impressions. #1416: Preview of Venice Immersive 2024 Innovations in Immersive Storytelling & Art Installations with Curators #1417: Kicking Off Venice Immersive Converge with Translating "Riven" Classic Point-and-Click Adventure to Open World VR Puzzler #1418: Award-Winning Animators Experiment with Sandbox Social VR "Garden Alchemy" Research Project #1419: Creating a Four-Sided Pepper's Ghost Pyramid Illusion with "Telos I" Dance Piece #1420: Experimental Documentary "Mammary Mountain" Captures Oral Histories of Breast Cancer Journeys #1421: Interactive Mixed Reality Doc on ADHD "Impulse: Playing With Reality" Takes Home Immersive Achievement Prize at Venice Immersive 2024 #1422: A Simple Silence Wraps Up Craig Quintero's Trilogy Exploring Spatial Transformations & Immersive Encounters

I interviewed Riven's creative director Eric Anderson and development director Hannah Gamiel ahead of Venice Immersive 2024 since it was being featured within the Best of Selection. See more context in the rough transcript below. This is a listener-supported podcast through the Voices of VR Patreon. Music: Fatality

PB and Rob talk about the cats' medication situations, No Man's Sky, how wrestling is like role-playing, Riven, and lots of Star Trek.

We talk about Noah Wardrip-Fruin’s How Pac-Man Eats. Note: Still confirming that Riven eventually released for the Sega Saturn. Buy the shirt! Support this show on Patreon!

The 8th edition of the Venice Immersive 2024 will be kicking off on August 28th, which will be featuring over 28 hours of immersive storytelling and immersive art content across over 70 different projects. This year there area a lot more immersive installations representing over a third out of the total number of on-site projects (18 out of the 52). There's eight mixed reality projects, a couple of projects featuring haptics, and one that prominently featuring AI character interactions. There are also 20 VRChat worlds in the Worlds Gallery along with 3 VRChat worlds in competition with 1 project that's using Resonite social VR platform. I had a chance to catch up with the co-curators Liz Rosenthal and Michel Reilhac again this year to get a sneak peak of the 26 projects in competition as well as 9 of the projects within the Best of Selection (note we talk about 10 Best of experiences, but it was announced just this morning that the Apple Vision Pro experience Adventure was pulled from the festival after attendees who had it booked received a message from Vivaticket saying, "we regret to inform you that the immersive experience Adventure for which you made a reservation has been cancelled" ). We also talk about how there's going to be a private think tank on September 1st looking at LBE distribution challenges and opportunities. Be sure to check out their previous report titled "Think Tank: Immediate Options to Address the Pressing Needs of Immersive Distribution." 17 out of the 20 VRChat worlds in the Worlds Gallery are already currently publicly available, and the three that are not are Concrete: Pale Sands, SNR Labs Test Facility, and Sanctum (though this one will be available after the festival run). Each of these are featuring some volumetric and holographic shaders that VJs are using in the VRChat clubbing scene, which I covered extensively in my previous three episodes, particularly in #1415 talking with two VRChat VJs and a DJ about the evolution of volumetric effects in music shows. But also check out #1413 where I talk with the SNR Labs team and in #1414 about how dancer SoftlySteph used the holographic shader tech that's demonstrated in the SNR Labs Test Facility experience. Below is a cheat sheet of the Venice Immersive 2024 experiences ordered by length. Note that the Free UR Head is actually closer to 55 minutes, and that Adventure is no longer in the Best of Selection. Also included is a copy of the map for where the experiences are located with some quality of life improvements that I made so that the text is all horizontal and a bit easier to read. I also have a version of the Venice Immersive experience map with the length of the experience embedded to make it easier for when you may be in standby mode. Here are links to the Best of Experiences that are publicly available: Museum Alive Immersive With David Attenborough [Apple Vision Pro], Nightmara: Episode 3, The 7th Guest VR, Riven, Astra, 40 Dias Sem O Sol (40 Days Without The Sun), & What If…? - An Immersive Story [Apple Vision Pro]. And here's the links to the VRChat worlds that are featured in the Venice Immersive Worlds Gallery. 17 of the 20 are currently publicly available.

Welcome to Dev Game Club, where this week we begin a new series on 1997's Final Fantasy Tactics, which took the series into a new genre. We talk about the game's presentation, basics, and technology as well as how the game begins. Dev Game Club looks at classic video games and plays through them over several episodes, providing commentary. Sections played: First few battles Issues covered: finals fantasies, 1997 in games, testing various games, placing us in that time, a surprising departure in the series, TTRPGs and being "like chess," translating a genre to the PS1, closer combat/smaller spaces, opacity, not remembering the game well, the Zodiac, some other series, a niche genre, limited input options and menus, Ivalice and medieval setting, a deeper simulated system than FF combat generally has, translating well to the genre, the opening cinematics, preferring alignment of story with general engine use, developing technology to stream video, in-game stuff holding up better, getting the leverage from sprites, the diorama look, merging gameplay with non-interactive content, pre-rendered rewards, terrain rendering and spinning the camera, the close-in space vs larger areas and fog of war, elevation and abilities, map differentiation for visuals and challenge, the game over screen, modern engagement. Games, people, and influences mentioned or discussed: Vagrant Story, Final Fantasy (series), Johnny "Pockets", GoldenEye, Diablo, Fallout, Castlevania: SotN, The Last Express, FF 7, Curse of Monkey Island, Grand Theft Auto, JK: Dark Forces 2, Myth: The Fallen Lords, Ultima Online, Outlaws, XvT, Starfox 64, Quake 2, Blade Runner, Dungeon Keeper, Age of Empires, Riven, Gran Turismo, Interstate '76, Populous, LucasArts, MechWarrior, Ogre Battles (series), SNES, Quest Corporation, Hironobu Sakaguchi, Chris Hockabout, Chris Corry, X-COM (series), Mario/Rabbids (series), Fire Emblem (series), Mark Garcia, Disgaea (series), Anachronox, Front Mission (series), Shining Force (series), Vandal Hearts (series), Valkyria Chronicles, Mass Effect (series), Star Wars, Blizzard, Ghost of Tsushima, Horizon: Forbidden West, God of War, The Sims, Vagrant Story, Metal Gear Solid, Axis and Allies, Kirk Hamilton, Aaron Evers.
