This style of video cut scene will allow them to maintain the illusion of the world they are building. It would be rather jolting to go from a VR experience to a 2D movie. When they reach a point where they need to tell some of the story, they move to a cut scene and the NPC tells you whatever is needed by the story line. I think the idea is to be similar to what Cyan has done in the past. The character can be placed into the virtual world. They use a green-screen room in the basement of Cyan’s studio. Their solution is to film with 2 GoPro gamers to create 3D video. Since this game is funded by a kickstarter project the budget is constrained.
While some games have animated avatars (in SL we call them bots) Cyan found that outside their expertise and thus too expensive for them to do. The Cyan peeps rant into the problem of how to put video of RL actors into a virtual world and not break the immersion. If you have a VR Headset, the video is in Oculus format.Īpparently Obduction will work with Oculus and similar VR headsets. You can see live-action NPC’s in a video of Senza PesoI (below – link), a trailer for an Oculus VR experience. Hayden Dingman at PCWorld wrote an article about Obduction having live-action Non-Player-Characters (NPC). I am looking forward to Cyan World’s new game Obduction.
