Antarctic Heritage Trust

Sir Edmund Hillary'nin Antarktika kulübesine başlayan bir hikaye.

Passend zum Wetter ein kleiner Ausflug in die Antarktis und gleichzeitig ein Stück weit in die Vergangenheit von Edmund Hillary (Bergsteiger) und seinem Team. Der Ausflug dauert in etwa 10 min, Sprache: englisch. Man kann sich zu bestimmten Punkten teleportieren, bekommt an diesen eine Menge Informationen zum Ort, teilweise mit Archivfilmen aus damaliger Zeit hinterlegt, und teleportiert sich dann zum nächsten Punkt. Leider keine freie Bewegung möglich, es denn man läuft in echt ein wenig umher. Dann kann man auch mal aus den Fenstern schauen. Für mich ein interessanter Einblick einer interessanten Persönlichkeit, einer anderen Zeit, obwohl noch gar nicht so lange her.

it's pretty good specially when it's a free game

Yani bir kulübede başlatan güzel bir VR oyunu. Oynanmasa bile VR denemek için bile bu oyun oynanabilir.

Antarctic Heritage Trust is not a game. Games contain meaningful gamelike interaction and game loops, which are absent in this software. Instead of being a game, Antarctic Heritage Trust is a software application that provides a VR representation of Sir Edmund Hillary's hut in Antarctica. No game... just look at stuff, but in VR. This has, however, been advertised as a game and published in the "Games" section of Steam. For those unfamiliar with what actually makes something a game, a "game loop" describes the interaction and feedback a gamer has when playing a game. Tetris, for example, has a game loop where a random block appears, the gamer interacts with the block to position it, and then the game decides if that finishes a row or not, increases the players score if any rows were completed, then gives the gamer another block to position. Counter-Strike has a game loop where a player seeks another player, tests their skill against that player by shooting them or being shot, the computer rewards the player if they win, and then if the player survives, they repeat that loop. There's no loop here, no true interactive feedback. It simply is not a game, it cannot be "played". This has misleadingly been launched in the "Games" section of Steam instead of the "Software" section. This is a common mistake for developers who are new to Steam, or don't understand the difference between games and software which isn't a game. It seems this software published incorrectly as a game is simply lack of experience/knowledge of the correct process. Here's a link for the process to publish non-game software on Steam: [url=https://help.steampowered.com/en/wizard/HelpWithPublishing?issueid=925]Steam Developer Help With Software Publishing[/url] It's unfortunate this process was not known about/followed, resulting in a software application being published in the wrong place. Publishing things which aren't games on Steam in the Games section as games is misleading to gamers and somewhat harmful, because it pollutes the Steam marketplace and takes away visibility and market exposure for genuine game developers who do the right thing and make games for gamers. There are no gameplay loops in this software, no "gameplay", no meaningful game like interaction. It's a software application and as such has no merits as a video game for gamers. Because of this, I cannot recommend this non-game software as a game to gamers.

Нужен мод на фильм Нечто

Played on HTC Vive Pro/Vive controllers/RTX2060Super. Another fine example of what VR can add to the experience of history. It all looks great and the tour is also a nice tour. Only gripe I would have, there is no free roaming, so you have to follow the tour which goes from spot to spot and then it just restarts.. Would have been nice if you had the option after the tour to just freely roam around the compound, even outside.. But I recommend anybody to check this experience out. It's free, so there's no reason not to try it.
