Ready Player One didn't have ready player one tech. The movie was wildly inconsistent with how it worked, because there are numerous fundamental design problems with getting really good vr. Like hard technical interface problems that just didn't make sense.
- uejfiweun 5y agoYeah, it was honestly a terrible book and movie (for someone who didn't grow up in the 1980s). The VR tech was the only part that I thought was cool, but as you said, there are many parts that are inconsistent. Like every scene where he is flying around in VR, or fighting. But I do think the walking problem needs to be solved for better VR, and an omni-treadmill could have some potential as a solution.
- spywaregorilla 5y agoNah. Treadmill is good if you want to play old school doom, but terrible if you want to move around in other ways. More importantly, a big problem with vr is that people just aren't very good. Even with complete brain transfer into the game world, people aren't competent enough to do the cool shit you see in ready player one.
