Cool to see games are starting to implement the Index's individual finger tracking.

I was just going to post that  😄 Well, that video is just perfect for a nice Saturday History lesson!  o:)  

PS. Why is that dude wearing a hat? Is it cold? Is it some strange form of male fashion? Is he covering up some weird tattoo? Am I getting too old? - I easily worry these days, sigh...  😉

Better shot, click to enlarge, HMD looks quite awesome - like some kind of super-Rift..

I think we're all wrong about what he's doing. Now I totally remember standing exactly like that every time I mentally tried to ready myself for another Doom VFR Cyberdemon battle  😄

Thanks for sharing - that was a really interesting look at one side of the evolution of the Knuckles (INDEX Controllers). I think these are a revolution in the application of room-scale VR, no matter how some fain disinterest, I think these could take the next phase of VR adoption to a new level. The best being they are planned to be agnostic of hardware so even Oculus users should get their chance to use them.

fain <> feign

The people that I know who have a lack of interest in Knuckles are not feigning (there's no such thing as "fain disinterest" btw), as they formulate their honest opinion from actual hands-on experience with VR Kits. As opposed to say, someone feigning expertise in the field of VR in order to act as if they can dismiss honest opinions.

Yeah I think they are going to add a lot to immersion. They look pretty clumsy but I hope after a while it will just becomes second nature.
