Candidly, @RustmourneGame got one of the biggest responses from our last showcase. The demo's out now and worth playing if you are interested.
I'll have my impressions of the demos for Rustmourne, @RiftedSkies (my arms are tired 🤣) and @PlayRAIDVR on UploadVR soon.
Multiple notable PC VR demos have recently dropped on Steam ahead of next week's Next Fest, including Rustmourne, The Rifted Skies, and Flat2VR's Studio's latest, RAID VR.

I wasn't the biggest fan of Knights of Fiona's combat, but the story was quite good, so I'll be back in next week for the conclusion.
Knights of Fiona concludes its story with Chapter 6 on October 20 for Quest and PC VR:

Seeing a lot of this Frame-related frustration and I especially hate it for people who made the reservation queue only to get this follow up kick to the nuts. 😕
Bro this is fucking infuriating.
I was so excited for the Frame, I got in the Reserve list, excpecting that I would be able to get it sooner rather than later and be one of the first to use the device and tell people how it is.
And then *I see this.*

LAST CALL: I am publishing an article on UploadVR this week about spooky/Halloween themed updates for #VR games. If you know of any such content, comment below.
VR hasn't delivered the true JRPG experience I've been craving & I'm starting to think it never will, but Ruinsmagus is probably the closest (excluding some dodgy mods of flat games I've tried).
It's on Horizon+ now. Worth a look if you're subbed.

Can someone who has rolled credits on Titanfall 2 in VR respond to this and let me know the mod holds up all the through?

There aren’t enough “f*ck with your head” games in VR. Hinge was ahead of its time.
Shil is a trippy psychological horror puzzle game coming to Quest on October 8, with a Steam release also planned for a later date.

Had a good time in @DungeonsVR Tomb Extraction and after so many hours, it was refreshing to do something a little new.
Full article on UploadVR.
Dungeons of Eternity's free Tomb Extraction update adds an entertaining new dungeon type, a welcome change of pace as the VR roguelite enters its fourth year.

Writing articles like this is the worst part of my job. 😢
More layoffs hit Walkabout Mini Golf developer Mighty Coconut:

What he said
meta vr glasses are more xr glasses than a vr headset (counterintuitively named)
as a result, vr gamers being shocked by its FOV are completely missing the point.
the meta vr glasses are xr glasses that happen to run on Quest OS, with the added benefit of getting all those apps/games for free. You can also still plug it into your laptop and use it as xr glasses
XR glasses typically have a 40-50° FOV, which is completely usable to watch videos, play steam deck games, and do virtual computing.
meta vr glasses' 87° fov with a >1080p resolution is already a MASSIVE leap over all other xr glasses

Y’all can stop DMing me now. 🤣
Gamescast goes LIVE starting next week… aiming for Monday pending final testing.
😍
We have officially arrived to the week where not one, not two BUT three major JRPG releases arrive on the same day.
Sept. 17 will bring us:
-Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter Remake
-Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave
-Another Eden Begins
Which one(s) will you be playing at release?
I'll be playing Trails and Fire Emblem, as I have to cover both for Nintendo Force and Level Up Legacy. 😅🫡
I plan to pick up Another Eden soon too!

The @fasttravelgames marketing department was staring daggers through @erikodeldahl this entire interview. /s
We played Payday: Aces High with Fast Travel Games and talked to Chief Creative Officer Erik Odeldahl on the VR design philosophies behind the co-op heist shooter.

Trails in the Sky SC, Fire Emblem Fortune’s Weave & Another Eden Begins releasing the same day is a crime against the JRPG community. 😭
My wallet is already giving me side eye.
Falcom President Toshihiro Kondo says more remakes are coming. It could be Trails in the Sky the 3rd or Trails from Zero:
"Since the Trails series has continued for over 20 years, I know it's not always easy to jump in from the latest title.
That's why we made Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter with beginners in mind, and our hope was for it to serve as an introduction to RPGs and JRPGs in general. So seeing new players actually pick it up has been extremely encouraging for us.
Of course, 1st Chapter's positive reception was also a big reason why it was so easy to get 2nd Chapter greenlit internally. And that's all thanks to everyone's support.
2nd Chapter's development is now in its final stages, and the development team is already asking me if we're going to remake Trails in the Sky the 3rd or Trails from Zero next. For newer fans, jumping from 2nd Chapter to the latest titles in the series, Trails Beyond the Horizon, I think, will still be a bit difficult, so in order for those players to continue enjoying the Trails series, we're hoping to continue the remakes for awhile.
So if we do make another game after 2nd Chapter, we hope you'll pick up that one as well."

I got to try these at AWE earlier this year. Article link in thread.
Great tech. Really needs developer support.
