Virtual Reality in 2023

My first experience with VR (well modern VR anyway) was three years ago, and I instantly fell in love. I think I was shown the archery game in Valve's The Lab first, which was pretty amazing. Then I played Beat Saber, and thought to myself that no matter what, I had to have more of this. It took a bit of time for that to happen, but when the Quest 2 had a price drop,…

Some new videos

I've been trying to make regular updates to my YouTube channel lately, so if you're not subscribed to my channel, do so! In the meantime, here's two of the latest video additions.

Lost Vikings: A Digital Story

One of the classes I took at Drexel this past term was Storytelling, which was a blast, if not a bit challenging for someone that has a fear of public speaking. Digital storytelling is something that I'm already a bit familiar with, having done a few videos now in the Let's Go Retro series (with more coming soon!) and so for my digital storytelling project, I made a video which definitely has the vibe of…

Snow days and RPGs

So it’s snowing like crazy here in New Jersey. Again! And just like always, whenever there’s a snow day, be it from school or from work, I always want to make some hot chocolate or coffee and curl up with a good RPG for the duration. I’m not sure what it is about this weather, but I always want to play an RPG. I guess it goes back to when I was a kid, and…
