Survios holds a special place in my past. Weird to see all the news after being there at the very beginning. Unfortunately a common trend right now... It was a magical moment doing roomscale VR in 2013 before most could only dream of it. Here is one of my favorite shots from 2013 I took of us testing "Zombies on The Holodeck" remake I did with the founders. It truly captured a moment in time. This was aiso the first place I shared multiplayer space on a network in VR and we had what might have been the first virtual high-five in fully embodied avatars. We could feel how special it was fighting off enemies using fully interactive weapons and roomscale design. This is way before the dynamic was commonplace. It is also fun to see the old VR hardware like Razer Hydra base station on the table and a PS Move leveraged for the tracking system using backpack PC prototypes. Wild to see this photo again. Time flies!

@SpatialBiggs Elmore, Trampier, Caldwel, Sutherland and Easley were gods in the 70s and 80s. They were rejected around the turn of the century for various reasons but the bright colors and bare skin were probably chief among them.

@KathyRaynaVR I'm hoping similar but my worry is components spiking in price push everything too high for reasonable market size. Even Quest prices were raised so what happens etc. Tough moment for VR but the hardware seems pretty great.

It'll be a curious situation... one that I hope goes well, since I intend to dev on it beyond just using it. My guess, it'll sell out, even though VR is a niche space. It'll have Valve's "Steam" name attached to it, which right now carries a LOT of weight, maybe more than Meta's ever did right now when it comes to VR. This is anecdotal of course, but more than half my VR using friends either want a Frame and will try to get it at launch, or are on the fence and are willing to wait for a second wave to let any potential hardware issues get ironed out from the first wave. Of those that are willing to get it and/or waiting for a second wave, half keep saying they're tired of Meta rendering their system slower with each update or having their system lose features at random with every update. Another subsection of those also want to use it as a portable PC they can use on their face when not at home, since it'll also give you access to a full blown Linux desktop (I'm included in this personally, I already do this with my Steam Deck instead of a Laptop for example). So I'm optimistic, and I'll be ready to either not sleep or do like I did for the Steam Controller of setting an alarm, to spam that purchase button like there's no tomorrow for the launch of the Frame! Also, sorry, just realized I kept typing and typing and typing and just sent a wall of text... eep!

I'm now conflicted... if Steam Frame doesn't sell out now that's bad imho. If it does I can't dev on it for a bit...
