Heute wieder frei, wie ich witzel, und wieder voll mit ihrem VR Arcade beschäftigt, für das er gleich versucht die neue Mixed-Reality Camera-API via Ball-Tracking einzusetzen, um das Tracking insgesamt zu verbessern.

This week Charlie and Ted welcome an old friend, Bob Cooney, the world's preeminent expert in location-based entertainment, who has just wrapped his own VR Arcade and Attractions Summit in Las Vegas. He's particularly excited by the portable MR theme park being developed by Brent Bushnell (Two Bit Circus), who keynoted the show. In the news, Big tech wants a preemptive pardon for copyright infringement. With the administration's open contempt for the media and Hollywood, and the influence of Elon Musk, who owns Xai, they'll get it. Sorry Rony was not here. His head is going to explode. Some good cinematic AI news, too, with a dramatic report on new AI-first production companies. Thank you to our sponsor, Zappar!Don't forget to like, share, and follow for more!

Und da passiert das unvermeidliche: Er stößt gegen den Wohnzimmertisch, stolpert, fällt, und zerstört mit seinem Körper effektvoll den Wohnzimmertisch. Den Juroren stockt der Atem! Der Wohnzimmertisch war eine Requisite, die, wie uns Oliver später erklärt, sogar präpariert worden war. Der Effekt hatte aber seine Wirkung: Die Juroren brauchen erst mal eine Pause. Diesen filmreifen Stunt hatte sich das Team von HoloCafé für ihren Auftritt bei der Vox-Gründershow "Die Höhle der Löwen" ausgedacht, und damit ordentlich Eindruck hinterlassen. Die Message: VR im Eigenheim funktioniert nur begrenzt. Den richtigen free-roaming Spaß hat man in VR vor allem in einem VR Arcade. Überzeugen konnte HoloCafé dennoch keinen der Juror:innen. Wir haben in dieser Episode den Co-Founder von HoloCafé Oliver Eberlei zu Gast, der uns ausführlich erzählt, wie es bei der Aufnahme zu ihrem 15-minütigen Auftritt ablief. Und auch wenn es nicht zu einem Invest kam, war das Learning aus der Show da. Denn was Holocafè macht, ist nicht einfach zu erklären. Und Oliver muss sich immer wieder klar werden, welchen Hut er gerade auf hat: Gamesentwickler, VR-Arcade-Betreiber oder Franchise-Anbieter? Die Geschichte von HoloCafé ist gleichzeitig auch die Geschichte der VR-Arcades in Deutschland. Zumindest ab dem Moment, als VR wirklich nutzbar wurde. Dabei unterscheidet sich der Ansatz von HoloCafé deutlich von VR Arcades, in dem man spielen kann, was man halt so kennt.

If you look around at your city, you may start seeing VR Arcades (virtual reality arcades) pop up! This fun and new exciting technology is able to let people actually FEEL like they are in a real life game. From roller coaster rides, escape rooms, racing, and first person shooter games, Virtual Reality is giving consumers an experience like never before!Virtual Reality, though, is not a new concept; however, because of recent technology improvements, virtual reality is now able to be a common household experience where companies and game creators are able to create open spaces where people can step in, create an avatar, and experience life like never before! Like literally, think of the blue Avatar people from Disney. Just like the human took on the form of an avatar and lived in that reality, though he body stayed on earth, we now are able to sit in our homes and enter into a whole new world and live a life like never before.And just like companies and game creators are stepping into this new open digital world, church are beginning to step into this virtual world, have worship services, small groups, and even baptisms! What do we call this new virtual world? The MetaVerse.So what should we do with this new phenomenon called the MetaVerse and should small churches step into this new world? Let's talk about it!// Links Mentioned in the Episode //https://careynieuwhof.com/episode470/https://careynieuwhof.com/episode471/// Connect with me online //Small Church Media Website: https://smallchurch.mediaWebsite: https://www.marchyde.comSchedule a Free Call with Me: https://calendly.com/marc-hyde/free30Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/marchydecreative/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tmarchyde/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyBtMtOe-61--8qskd6PshgGoogle My Business: https://g.page/marc-hyde-creative

Im MIXED.de Podcast #234 sprechen wir über OpenAIs neues KI-Trainingsprinzip für Roboter-Arme und die (hoffentlich) baldige Wiedereröffnung von VR-Arcades. OpenAIs Roboterarm-Training zeigt neues KI-Trainingsprinzip OpenAI lässt Roboterarme miteinander spielen: Das sogenannte Self-Play in der Robotik umgeht den Flaschenhals Mensch, indem sich die KI, die die Arme steuert, eigenständig Aufgaben stellt, die ansonsten ein Mensch erdenken und eingeben müsste. Eine KI generiert eine Aufgabe und lässt sie von einem Roboterarm durchführen, die KI im anderen Roboterarm muss lernen, die Aufgabe zu reproduzieren. OpenAI schafft mit dieser Methode einen echten Multitask-Roboterarm. Denn durch die vielen KI-generierten Aufgaben löst Bob nach dem Training auch bisher ungesehene Herausforderungen mit neuartigen Objekten. Mehr: https://mixed.de/openais-neue-roboterarme-trainieren-sich-gegenseitig/ VR-Arcades bereiten sich auf Post-Corona vor Das gerade erst erblühende Erfolgspflänzchen VR-Arcade wurde von der Corona-Pandemie brutal niedergetrampelt. Jetzt antizipieren Investoren die Erholung des Geschäftsmodells nach den Corona-Ausgangssperren: Der deutsche VR-Arcade-Ausrüster Spree erhält ein Millioneninvest, das erfolgreiche VR-Studio Vertigo Games investiert ebenfalls kräftig in die VR-Arcade-Plattform Springboard VR, die größte Content- und Verwaltungsplattform für VR-Spielhallen, und mit Hologate World soll im Herbst in Fürth die größte deutsche VR-Spielhalle starten.

Danke! VR-Arcades: So jung und schon wieder tot? Das Corona-Virus geht auch in der VR-Branche um: Besonders hart trifft es Virtual-Reality-Arcades, die vorübergehend schließen müssen. Da die Branche noch jung ist, also noch nicht viel Erfahrung im Krisenmanagement oder große finanzielle Rücklagen hat, könnte die Corona-Krise die gerade erst entstehende Landschaft an VR-Arcades niedertrampeln. Wir sprechen mit Sebastian Kreutz, dem Mitgründer und Geschäftsführer des Holocafé. Mit seinen Kolleg*innen betreibt er drei VR-Arcades in Aachen, Düsseldorf und Troisdorf und lizenziert Software an andere Spielhallenbetreiber. Durch den staatlich verordneten Shutdown sinken die Umsatzzahlen seines Betriebs von heute auf morgen auf: null. Wie geht Sebastian damit um, wie schätzt er die Lage in der Branche ein? Wir haben uns mit ihm darüber unterhalten - und erfahren dabei viele spannende Anekdoten aus rund vier Jahren VR-Arcade-Geschäft.

Laut des VR-Entwicklerstudios Survios ist der Arcade-Markt für VR-Spiele deutlich lukrativer als der Heim-VR-Markt. Er soll circa dreimal schneller wachsen. Dabei sah es 2016 noch so aus, als hätten gewöhnliche Spielhallen mit VR-Brillen auf Dauer kaum eine Überlebenschance - immerhin sollte doch spätestens 2019 jeder halbwegs interessierte Gamer eine eigene VR-Brille haben. Kam aber anders. Ist der Heim-VR-Flop das Glück der Spielhallenbetreiber? Mehr: https://mixed.de/survios-vr-arcade-markt-waechst-dreimal-so-stark-wie-heim-vr/

Im MIXED.de Podcast Ausgabe #146 geht es um Zero Latency in München, den Sinn und Zweck von XR-Brillen und einen gesprächigen Sony-Forscher. Zero Latency in München Tobias und Christian waren in München und haben dort die neue VR-Arcade "Zero Latency" ausprobiert. Mit weltweit 25 Standorten gehört das Franchise zu den weltweit erfolgreichsten. Zu Recht? Mehr: https://mixed.de/highend-vr-arcade-zero-latency-kommt-nach-deutschland/ Varjo XR-1 und XTAL AR Der finnische Brillenhersteller Varjo kündigte letzte Woche die Mixed-Reality-Brille XR-1 an: Das neue Gerät ist Varjos Standard-VR-Brille erweitert mit zwei Durchguckkameras, die wie Augen an der Vorderseite der Brille sitzen und ein Bild der Außenwelt auf die Displays streamen. Das tschechische Unternehmen XTAL kündigte ebenfalls ein AR-Upgrade für die Industriebrille XTAL an. Und Unitys XR-Chefin erwartet für 2020 weitere Mixed-Reality-Brillen. Technisch bietet Durchguck-AR Vorteile wie ein weiteres Sichtfeld und sattere Farben. Wir überlegen, für wen diese Geräte interessant sein könnten und weshalb. Mehr: https://mixed.de/unitys-xr-chefin-erwartet-mixed-reality-brillen-fuer-2020/ Mehr: https://mixed.de/varjo-kuendigt-mixed-reality-brille-xr-1-an/ Sony-Forscher spricht über PSVR 2 Im Rahmen einer Techkonferenz erzählte Sony-Forscher Dominic Mallinson über eine mögliche Playstation VR 2: Sie müsse eine höhere Auflösung bieten, ein etwas weiteres Sichtfeld und Eye-Tracking, das laut Mallinson VR grundlegend verändert. Und: Mallinson bestätigt, dass PSVR 2 nicht zusammen mit der Playstation 5 erscheinen soll. Man wolle Kunden nicht vor gleich zwei Kaufentscheidungen stellen. Außerdem wird Sonys aktuelle VR-Brille mit der neuen Konsole kompatibel sein. Stellt sich nun die Frage: Ist Playstation VR gut genug, um Konsolen-VR noch für locker zwei Jahre relevant zu halten? Oder gerät die Sony-Brille bis zu einer möglichen PSVR 2 langsam in Vergessenheit? Mehr: https://mixed.de/playstation-vr-2-marktstart-mit-playstation-5-unwahrscheinlich/

Nach einer etwas längeren Abstinenz sind Simon und Lars endlich wieder vor ihren Mikros! Um die Rückkehr gebührend zu feiern haben wir uns Franziska Knoefel von Weischer.Media eingeladen. In unserer 21. Episode sprechen wir mit ihr über ihre Highlights und Trends der SXSW im fernen Austin, Texas (ein bisschen Neid schwingt mit, weil wir selbst nicht da waren), über das Kino der Zukunft, VR-Arcades und Strategien, wie immersive Medien endlich die Masse erreichen können.

Für den VRODOCAST #106 war Christian auf der Gamescom 2018 Nerds schubsen. Nur für euch hat er sich verschwitzte VR-Brillen aufgesetzt. Virtual Reality auf der Gamescom 2018 Besonders lang musste sich Christian nicht auf der Gamescom aufhalten, um sämtliche VR-Stationen anzuschauen: Im Vergleich zum letzten Jahr gab es fast nix zu sehen. Ein halber Tag reichte. Und ja, das haben wir auch im vergangenen Jahr schon gesagt. In diesem Jahr war es eben noch weniger. Die Gamescom 2018 gibt den Trend wieder: Endverbraucher-VR geht an der Krücke und sucht nach dem erlösenden Moment - oder zumindest dem nächsten Fortschritt. Auffällig: Immer mehr Studios und Unternehmen stecken ihr Geld lieber in VR-Arcades und spezielle Software für Virtual-Reality-Spielhallen. Dieser Markt soll lukrativer sein - oder ist es einfach die alternativlose Ausweichstrategie? Der Entertainment-Riese Imax jedenfalls hat kürzlich zwei seiner sieben neu eröffneten VR-Spielhallen wegen Misserfolgs wieder geschlossen. Die restlichen fünf Arcades folgen voraussichtlich in den kommenden Wochen. Christian und Matthias kauen die Gamescom und ihre Folgen gründlich durch: Was gab's auf der Gamescom konkret zu sehen? Wie war die VR-Stimmung? Und wie könnte es mittelfristig weitergehen? Oculus nächste VR-Brille soll Anfang 2019 erscheinen Zuvor war die Rede vom "erlösenden Moment" für Endverbraucher-VR. Vielleicht bringt ihn Oculus ja Ende September auf der Entwicklerkonferenz Connect 5. Dann wird das Facebook-Unternehmen sehr wahrscheinlich die neue VR-Brille mit dem Codenamen Santa Cruz offiziell enthüllen. Die autarke VR-Brille soll so etwas wie eine mobile Virtual-Reality-Spielekonsole werden. Oculus Go ist im Vergleich eher die mobile Videobrille. Bei einem ordentlichen Preis, einem guten Design und einem breiten Software-Angebot dank Oculus-Rift- und Oculus-Go-Bibliothek hat Santa Cruz von allen bislang veröffentlichten VR-Brillen zweifellos das mit Abstand größte Verkaufspotenzial. Ist Santa Cruz die VR-Trumpfkarte für 2019?

Vollgepackt mit tollen Themen, sodass ihr euer Leben könnt leichter nehmen: Der VRODOCAST #94 ist da. Diesmal im Fokus: Vive Focus. Außerdem diskutieren wir über den Facebook-Zwang bei Oculus Venues und den Flop der Imax VR-Arcades. Ersteindruck Vive Focus Seit einer guten Woche hat Christian die Entwicklerversion von HTCs neuester VR-Brille Vive Focus im Einsatz. Im Podcast schildert er seinen Ersteindruck zu Tragekomfort, Tracking, Steuerung und App-Auswahl und vergleicht die Brille mit der unmittelbaren Oculus-Konkurrenz Oculus Go. Außerdem überlegen wir, für welche Zielgruppe die VR-Brille gebaut wurde. Facebook-Zwang bei Oculus Venues In der Social-Streaming-App Oculus Venues können bis zu 1.000 Zuschauer gemeinsam einem Konzert oder einer Sportveranstaltung beiwohnen. Die Übertragungen ähneln einem Besuch in einem riesigen Imax-Kino. Eine Besonderheit: Nutzer werden nicht einfach so im Kino platziert, sondern anhand ihrer persönlichen Interessen und Verbindungen bei Facebook. So soll man leichter mit anderen Personen in Kontakt kommt. Entsprechend setzt Venues einen Facebook-Account voraus - wer keinen hat, muss draußen bleiben, denn der Oculus-Account reicht nicht mehr aus. Das hat einen Mini-Shitstorm im Oculus Store mit vielen schlechten App-Bewertungen zur Folge. Wir diskutieren, ob die Proteste gerechtfertigt sind - und haben einen sehr unterschiedlichen Blick auf die Dinge. Facebook-Account-Pflicht: https://vrodo.de/oculus-social-vr-app-venues-setzt-facebook-konto-voraus/ Venues startet: https://vrodo.de/oculus-go-gear-vr-oculus-live-streaming-app-venues-startet/ Imax VR-Flop Erstmals berichtet Imax über den Erfolg der weltweit installierten Imax-VR-Spielhallen - oder eher Misserfolg, denn das Fazit ist ernüchternd: Nur eine einzige VR-Arcade hat den Umsatz erreicht, den sich das Unternehmen erhofft hat. Alle anderen bleiben deutlich hinter den Erwartungen zurück. Die Folge: Investitionsstopp. Dabei soll doch gerade das VR-Arcade-Geschäftsmodell so lukrativ sein. Woran liegt's? Imax-Flop: https://vrodo.de/investitionsstopp-imax-enttaeuscht-von-eigenen-vr-arcades/ Mehr zum VRODO-Podcast und der Crew: https://vrodo.de/podcast/

Three geeks spend a day at a VR Arcade. This is where we swet and hurt for the love of geek

Jordan Erica Webber has her reservations when it comes to virtual reality in gaming. This week she battles with motion sickness and visits a VR arcade in London to see if her mind can be changed. Is there a future for these types of arcades?

Today on the show we are joined by Brad Scoggin, Co-Founder and CEO of SpringboardVR. Brad talks about his company’s rapid growth over the last 12 months, and offers incredible insights on the location-based VR marketplace. SpringboardVR has created a system for launching and managing VR Arcades, and licenses that system to other arcades all over the world. You can connect with Brad at brad@springboardvr.com.

This week we're talking VR Arcades and the evolution of our newest product!

VRODOCAST #48: Facebooks Preisstrategie für Oculus Rift und mehr In Ausgabe #48 des VRODOCAST diskutieren wir Facebooks neue Preisstrategie für Oculus Rift, das Live-Streaming von Facebook Spaces und das Potenzial von Markenerlebnissen für VR-Arcades. Oculus Rift: Massiver Preisverfall in nur wenigen Wochen Von 900 Euro auf 700 Euro auf 450 Euro (und nach dem Sale auf 550 Euro) – und das in nur vier Monaten. Innerhalb weniger Wochen fällt der Preis von Oculus Rift inklusive 3D-Controller um die Hälfte. Hinzu kommt, dass Käufer der Rift-Brille mit so viel kostenloser Software ausgestattet werden, dass sie in den ersten Monaten fast keinen Grund haben, auch nur einen Cent im Store auszugeben. Was steckt hinter dieser Preissenkung und wird sie sich signifikant auf die Verkaufszahlen auswirken? Ist es ein Ausverkauf für eine neue Generation VR-Brille oder der Versuch, VR-Technologie mit aller Macht in den Mainstream zu zwingen? Facebooks VR-Strategie bleibt wie gehabt rätselhaft und bietet damit optimalen Nährboden für informierte Spekulationen. Preissenkung: https://vrodo.de/oculus-verkauft-rift-und-touch-zeitlich-limitiert-fuer-399-us-dollar/ Reaktionen der Gamer: https://vrodo.de/oculus-rift-wie-reagieren-gamer-auf-die-preissenkung/ Live-Streaming mit Facebook Spaces Facebook erweitert die Social-App Spaces um eine Livestreaming-Funktion. Direkt aus der VR-Umgebung heraus kann man mit nur einem Klick ein Livevideo in den Facebook-Newsstream einspeisen. So kann der normale Monitorgucker in die Virtual Reality hineinschauen und bekommt einen besseren Eindruck von den Möglichkeiten. Außerdem lassen sich damit potenziell neue Show- und Entertainmentformate umsetzen. Live-Streaming: https://vrodo.de/facebook-spaces-ab-sofort-mit-neuem-live-streaming-feature/ Erste VR-Talkshow: https://vrodo.de/facebook-spaces-erste-vr-talkshow-mit-promis-kommt-naechste-woche/ Markenerlebnisse für VR-Arcades Als die Virtual-Reality-Spielhalle „The Void“ in New York an den Start ging, tat sie das mit einer Ghostbusters-Erfahrung. Aus gutem Grund, denn der große Markenname zieht auch die Besucher an, die sich für Inhalte und nicht für Technologie begeistern. Jetzt wurde bekannt, dass Disney Geld in The Void steckt und das Unternehmen somit potenziell Zugang zu noch zugkräftigeren Marken wie Star Wars haben könnte. Wie hoch ist das Mainstream-Potenzial von Marken-VR? Lies dazu auch: https://vrodo.de/virtual-reality-disney-investiert-in-highend-arcade-the-void/

Im Podcast Episode #47 geht's um Segas neue VR-Arcade in Tokio, Oculus-Marketing für Oculus Rift und Gear VR sowie die Digility 2017. VR-Spielhalle in Tokio Mitte Juni startete Sega eine neue VR-Arcade in Tokio, die Matthias vor Ort testen konnte. Christian konnte auf der Digility eine kabellose Gear-VR-Brille mit Raumtracking ausprobieren. Wir sprechen darüber, wie sehr kabellose VR-Brillen das VR-Erlebnis verbessern können. VR-Arcade in Tokio im Test: https://vrodo.de/ausprobiert-wie-gut-ist-segas-virtual-reality-arcade-in-tokio/ Oculus‘ Marketing-Strategie für Oculus Rift und Gear VR Bei YouTube veröffentlichte Oculus einen neuen Werbefilm für Gear VR, der mehr Wunschdenken als VR-Nutzungsrealität beschreibt. Unter anderem sitzen vier junge Mädchen mit Gear VR auf dem Kopf im gleichen (!) Raum und probieren sich an Karaoke VR aus. Wie realistisch ist es, dass es in den nächsten Jahren zu so einer Situation kommt? Ist das wirklich die Zielgruppe, die Oculus derzeit sinnvoll ansprechen sollte? Oder versucht die Facebook-Tochter einfach nur, eine selbsterfüllende Prophezeiung herbeizuwerben? Zum neuen Spot passt, dass sich ein Oculus-Manager darüber beschwerte, dass Ballerspiele bei der aktuellen Zielgruppe „unglücklicherweise“ am besten ankommen. Er glaubt, dass die Branche schlechte Inhalte nicht lautstark kritisiert. Vielleicht versucht die Facebook-Tochter gerade, der Hardcore-Gaming-Nische, in der sie derzeit hauptsächlich wahrgenommen wird, zumindest ein Stück weit zu entkommen. Mehr dazu: https://vrodo.de/oculus-manager-wir-sprechen-nicht-ehrlich-genug-ueber-schlechte-inhalte/ Digility 2017 In Köln fand zum zweiten Mal die Digility-Fachkonferenz statt, bei der sich die deutsche und internationale VR- und AR-Branche trifft. Christian war mit Stand vor Ort und schildert seinen Eindruck von der Stimmung. Außerdem konnte er eine Geruchszelle ausprobieren, eine Art Telefonzelle mit VR-Brille, die passend zu den Bildern in der Brille Gerüche verströmt. Wie gut das funktioniert, berichtet er im Podcast.

Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are popular buzzwords we read and hear about a lot these days. Much of it sounds like it “will be” great someday, but what about Small Businesses that are in the VR/AR space and creating businesses TODAY? Joining us for episode 125 of the Small Business Show is Chase Dittmer and TJ Dishaw, co-founders of GrowpoVR Studios and GovRed. GrowpoVR began as an arcade/studio business, offering up VR experiences for consumers. When Chase and TJ noticed lots of Police officers using the equipment, they quickly realized there was an underserved demographic, so of course, they launched a new business, GoVRed to focus on military and government agency VR use. During the show, we also got a chance to learn about the Iowa Startup Accelerator and how GoVRed became a part of this 12-month startup program. We discussed how the business incubator provides support for design and engineering as well as legal and marketing areas. The co-founders discuss how their youth has been a benefit as well as a challenge when developing their business and meeting new customers. One thing is for sure, there's no lack of enthusiasm from either Chase or TJ.

Diese Woche geht's im VRODOCAST um einen Ausflug in die deutsche Version von "The Void", die VR-Arcade "Illusion Walk" in Berlin. Außerdem sprechen wir über Acers VR-Brille, Durchhalteparolen und Oculus' neueste VR-Erfahrung Wilson's Heart. "Ilussion Walk" in Berlin ausprobiert Unser Podcaster Sven hatte die Möglichkeit, der VR-Spielhalle "Illusion Walk" in Berlin einen Besuch abzustatten. Die verfolgt ein ähnliches Konzept wie "The Void" aus den USA. Virtuelle Umgebung und reale Welt werden für ein glaubhafteres Eintauchen exakt übereinandergelegt. Mittels Inside-Out-Tracking und Rucksack-PCs bewegt man sich völlig frei durch eine weitläufige virtuelle Welt. Unser VR-Routinier Sven war hin und weg von diesem ganz besonders immersiven Erlebnis. Warum das so ist, erklärt er im ersten Block unseres Casts. Mehr dazu: https://vrodo.de/virtual-reality-immersive-deck-die-deutsche-version-von-the-void/ Acers Mixed-Reality-Brille und Durchhalteparolen Auf der Unity-Entwicklerkonferenz verschenkte Acer hunderte Prototypen der kommenden Mixed-Reality-Brille für Windows. Zuvor veranstaltete das Unternehmen gemeinsam mit Microsoft in New York eine Presseveranstaltung, auf der die neueste Version der Brille vorgestellt wurde. Das Fazit der Tester fiel sehr positiv aus. Das Gerät soll komfortabel und das Tracking verlässlich sein. Allein am Inhalt mangelt es. Unter wenig Inhalt litten auch einige der Keynotes auf Unitys Entwicklerkonferenz. Die VR- und AR-Branche zehrt in 2017 vom Blick in die weite Zukunft und vielen Durchhalteparolen. Wir sprechen drüber und bewältigen das Tal der Tränen mit vereinten Kräften.

Das interaktive VR-Erlebnis schlägt in eine ähnliche Kerbe wie die kürzlich veröffentlichten VR-Erfahrungen Arkham VR und Rick'n Morty. Spielefans ärgern sich am banalen Interaktionsschema, fehlender Tiefe und einem geringen Umfang. Womöglich sind diese VR-Erfahrungen gar nicht in erster Linie für Spieler gemacht? Und falls das so ist: für wen sind sie dann gemacht? Wir diskutieren, warum klassische Spielekonzepte in VR vielleicht gar nicht funktionieren können - und so viel sei verraten: Motion Sickness ist dafür nicht die alleinige Ursache.
