What fucking games are even on Source 2? As much as timmy fucking sucks, it would have been better to stick to UE. 90% of modern games run on it anyway.

The only reason I care is because it's the potentially the only way to make a game using Source 2 but it's been over 2 years and they still can't work out an agreement with Valve.

Why would you make a crafting game with the player model being downie brownies? Surely that's not the most appealing option.

IIRC when GMod was just a mod Valve approached Garry to turn it into a full, paid game. Considering that's the main reason he has his career now he probably feels obligated to Valve.
I also support it if this causes Source 2 to release as a full engine, the Unity-UE duopoly needs competition

Why does this game generate so much anger whenever it's posted? Yeah it's ugly but people seem to lose their minds about it here. It's not even called "Garry's Mod 2" but regardless it seems offend people that it's vaguely related to the original

Grim.
The biggest stand out being a VR showcase that amounted to nothing is crazy.

Imagine if by 2014 the only games, on Source engine would have been:
>Half-Life 2: Lost Coast
>Counter Strike: Source (Actually a port Condition Zero)
>Alien Swarm
And the only mod released was Minerva.

That is about the levels of Grim we are currently on right now with Source 2

This reason is why I think the engine should have been UE. You could import Dishonored maps and use Bioshock models to play with.

Why do games take so much longer to come out these days? Even with higher graphical fidelity, the game design is pretty much the same, so it's not like companies are reinventing the wheel.

The one and only plus of a publisher. Deadlines. Limitation breeds creativity, and that applies to more than just what is created. It's how. It also breeds that sense of urgency. Feature creep affects developers, as does perfectionism. Not having a absolute set deadline means a constant cycle of create and fix/revise. I've encountered it one too many times myself. You have to pick a point to get to at all costs.

When Occulus started, the whole plan was to make VR affordable to maximize the potential market for VR software and have it as a standard accesory to gaming in general, with focus on affordability and user control.
Then Facebook bought it and started a crusade that VR should be expensive as fuck, corporate controlled and the affordable version (Quest) half assed at best.
The result was, of course, an extremely small userbase and therefore potential market, aswell as the fact that the affordable version could not handle demanding games.
So now, there is no reason for most companies to make proper VR games because there's no market for them, and all you're left with is "VR experiences", VR chat and a literal handful of actually decent games.

If I had to give my 2 cents, I'd say the major flaw here was trying to alineate the VR games from regular ones. Compare VR headsets to dedicated hardware for racing games. A proper setup can cost thousands of dollars between seats, driving wheels, pedals and all that stuff, but the important part is that the game's yu play can also be played without it, so the dedicated user can go for it, the casual one can play with a controller. Instead, many games opted for having a "VR edition" at best that you had to pay besides the og one, meaning that VR is a closet market you gotta invest besides reguglar one. That dwarves the potential costumers you can have, and makes a lot of people who could afford VR not go for it because there's nothing to play it on.

I really wish VR took off because so many genres can benefit from it, but trying to maximize profits on a starting market is dumb as fuck.

It works for racing games because there's not much of a difference you're really adding with a VR HMD. When it comes to other genres, such as FPS, it really wouldn't work as a side by side with regular PC imo. Too much of a difference of what each type of player is capable of. Also I think true VR controls have too different of an architecture to just regular pc/controller controls and it'd prob be hard or way more consuming to implement that into a game where realistically maybe 5% of the players would be concurrent VR players.

While I agree, specially since in fps one of the main appeals if VR is interactivity with objects and physics around, something that's hard to simply add or would harm the experience if is completly missing out, there's also many examples of VR quickly adapted with pretty good results. There's a VR mod for Outer Wilds that works pretty well and elevates the game a lot despite having little to nothing to play around.

I ain't saying it's easy and could be easily done for every FPS game, but that they tried to jump too hard, too fast from no VR games to fully fledged VR games without some sort of transictional phase where both enviroments could coexist so people had incentives to invest harder in VR.
I'll also add that optimization is extremely important for VR due the higher demands in hardware if you do want to go for an affordability approach (which you should for a new market).

I think it was Valve that said that if the start of VR fails, then the market will have a really hard time taking off for real. Maybe in a few years or a decade the market will finally be on the spot where a headset along a proper PC isn't that expensive and there's a lot more to play around with, but right now, unless you wanna ERP around.

We needed several games like HL Alyx but 5 years later that's still the only thing.

From what I remember reading this is basically the actual Valve-approved Source 2 sdk.

A buddy of mine who got acces to the "game" like it enough.at the very least it's better than Godot and almost on par with Unity depending on what game you're making.
