Learn the secrets of social VR gameplay and the VR tabletop at VRDC!
Contemporary VR expert (and Oculus chief scientist) Michael Abrash once predicted that "VR will be the most social medium ever."
The VR developers at Ubisoft's Red Storm Entertainment believe their own findings support that prediction, and at the standalone Virtual Reality Developers Conference in November they intend to share their findings.
In a session titled "Social Animals: Werewolves Within and the Virtual Tabletop" Red Storm's lead social systems designer Justin Achilli will deconstruct how the studio developed Werewolves Within with a focus on social gameplay. In the process they challenged the notion of VR as a solitary activity and translated the experience of face-to-face gameplay "around the table" into the medium of VR.
