  • SLR Party Riots

theHobbit You may be happy paying for potato quality videos with lousy camera angles and no story but that doesn't mean everyone else should be too. Everyone here has different expectations. Labelling those who aren't perfectly happy with the status quo drama queens is pretty ignorant.

    Hairsational actually it's not. It's the constant regurgitation of the same old complaints that have been answered time and time again. It amazes me how patient @doublevr is with you guys. You have access to the CEO of the platform you use, he engages with your critiques and complaints and a lot of what you say could be read as 'we can do the job better than you Alex'.

    I don't think I know of any other organisation where the CEO is as active and yet still the complaints.

    It's porn, it's not that serious. Something you can use to jerk off. If the face, tits and ass aren't doing it for you find another video that does. It's as simple as that.

    If you want story lines - get Netflix or go to the movies, there is some good stuff on there and in the theatre you can feel fully immersed or whatever lol.

      Hairsational yes I am easily pleased with hot women in front of me. I think most porn consumers are, but there are a few of you let's say 10 who are drama queens lol.

      Pressure to improve things - send Alex Mack to creative writing classes, ban pass through, open a new AR site, give me my lifetime membership money back and on and on and on. Give me a break.

      Hairsational Would be interesting to see the PT watchtime vs non-PT watchtime

      Also clearly not an analyst I see, given that there are 10' of 1000's of non PT videos vs only a handful of PT videos. The data would be clearly skewed towards non-PT lol. Also you would need to take account of other variables that were a factor like release date, performer, available on main page etc.

      The quality of PT has only very recently been improved, maybe from the Molly Little scene. Would be better to take a random sample of say 5 films from the last 2/3 months and compare the watch time.

      Personally I don't mind and a scene in a grey room is fine for me but I have to admit I switched on pass through the other night for Rissa on my Quest 2 and loved having her in bed with me. I can't wait to get Quest 3

        +1, agreed with your comments above.
        I also can't wait for the Q3, just playing around with PT on the Q2 it's easy to imagine the level of immersion full color will bring.

        The feedback on this thread does feel overly negative, and I doubt it's representative of the site's user base. I actually thought the story lines in Europe tour were pretty good.

        SLR is on track now to deliver some amazing things. As I said before, we are so close to bridging the gap and making these experiences more lifelike.
        A lot of the criticism I see above, I do feel misses this bigger picture. Why make a separate site for PT? When most of the user base will be on quest 3's in a year's time? And if you don't like PT at the moment, it's fine, there are so many non-PT videos to enjoy. There are many genres of videos I personally don't enjoy - so I just skip them.

        A lot of these complaints I feel distract from the real challenges and problems to be solved here, to bring us the lifelike experiences we want. SLR is uniquely positioned to solve these given their full stack ownership across content and platform.
        Pointing back to my favorite example, multi-axis scripting. Right now, it' prohibitively expensive because each axis needs to be scripted separately. I played around with the tool a bit, and it's time consuming. But it doesn't have to be. It's time consuming because you're building movement patterns directly from primitives, much akin to the old days when we were writing assembly directly. You have a lot of direct control, but most of those permutation are useless because they don't occur in real life. Fortunately, it's a solvable problem, a layer of abstraction enabling you to use parametrized prefab movement patterns could potentially enable scripting of multiple axises at once.
        But this is not something that will take several generations of headsets, an engineering team can build a solution for this in the order of 6mo to a year.

        Another challenge we'll encounter... As we all know, what looks good on camera, may not necessarily feel good. But SLR has their own content pipeline, so they can control this. PT videos can be shot at angles optimized to viewed in bed. or on a couch. or standing up. With movements that are optimized to fully leverage the capabilities of the haptics tech.

        What is really exciting though is that most of these challenges are not limited by silicon. It's a mix of software, price-point, tech/content integration, and organizational. That's why I disagree with the comments pushing to limit PT. I see the potential of this tech as a massive step forward in this space.

        Another question about AR porn is how are props going to be done? Many of the best, most immersive JAV scenes feature props (e.g. a table full of food and a girl chopsticking it to your mouth). Would AR porn be able to incorporate that easily?

        LordCrash I think my extremely useful contribution still holds- none of the drama queens are happy with VR either. I've read the posts man by the same users and you all go to pieces when the dick is 1 cm off centre during the shoot lol. Like you have your protractors out or something measuring this kind of stuff.

        Note: Did you pick up on the fact that I can articulate myself without having to resort to verbal abuse?

        Please be sure to play nice, everyone.

        Edit: I mean keeping things respectful between users

          LordCrash that's exactly how you treat others without even being provoked.

          If everyone gets like that it's a party riot all over the place. Give others some place dude. You don't have to push for things if your preference on every occasion.
          Other than that I really enjoy your company. You have got some cool stuff to share
