This. C'mon Bandai Namco, localize this.
Getting the Japanese version so I can try it right away though.
Yeah, I really hope they don't take too long to add her.
The animations are wonderful and the face is hardly "dead." They actually have an "anime-ish" look to them. They weren't going for realizsm.
I think jarring in that while these characters are not realistic, you still consider them another "person" and when they get close, they basically intrude on your personal space just as would happen in real life.

common guys where were the green sound waves gifs and pictures for this...
But yeah this might get weird for you lol.
Everyone is weirdly excited to try this though which is nice. Weird assumptions and borderline racist stereotypes aside, glad were mostly keeping this release civil.

For a friend, of course.
And just for the record - this game is 100% Japanese right? It's not like, say, DOAXtreme where the language is Japanese but the UI and everything is available in English?
100% Japanese.

Surely someone's gonna write a quickguide for non-Japanese speaking people on which buttons they need to press at what moment, right?
..right??

I really want this game but my Japanese language skills aren't the best. By that I mean the first college class level of Japanese so it's nothing. Still would be nice to go through though since the chances of this coming to America are slim. Is it difficult to purchase something through the Japanese PS store? Never tried it.
For the future of mankind.^_^
played for about 30 minutes. Nothing too much to comment since I have already played the 2014 demo from gameshow and it's not too different. Each sessions feel a bit too short and the loading screens in-between kinda pulls you out of the immersion. And the resolution is still really really low so things look blurry for me. I wonder if They would patch PS4 Pro version to bump up the resolution.
But it's still very immersive overall. The room looks and feels good, character model is quite good and animation is also great.
The game does feel incredibly short and you can probably finish the game within an hour. Of course this is made to be played with multiple playthrough but I do wish there was a bit more content. I know there are lots of future DLCs coming so I hope it doesn't take too long.
No dead eyes, if I'm understanding correctly. Jarring in the sense that the 3D feeling is really good, and it when she leans in or moves around it really feels like she is getting up in my personal space. It is hard to describe and I'm sure it will wear off eventually but it is pretty convincing to me.
Also, forgot to mention, hearing the wind/nature stuff going on outside with the 3d audio is really neat.

This may go down in history as the lowest ratio of owners to posters for an OT.

Yes you need PSVR to even start the game.

To be fair, looking at Miku pantsu has been impossible in all of the games, it's always blocked. This isn't new

In Summer Lesson, you should be allowed to peek under her skirt but then the mom comes in and fires you which deletes your PSN license for the game
That's no way to treat Hikari chan

Wait what does the text on the black box say when you try to sneak a peak?
"Should have gone to prom night."

"Outside of the play area", at least in the MIku one.
Well, that's what the first thing says. I can't read the all-kanji message beneath it lol.

It goes a bit deeper, in VR, things which are close to you, especially people, feel real as fuck. Like that gif, where she comes right next to you to show a video from her phone, that would feel legitimately freaky when she's so close to you. your personal space definitely gets breached.
Summer lesson, prevy as it is, really does highlight the presence factor of VR

Just had my first 7 day run and holy crap this game is a prelude of dangerous things to come. Nuances in character animation are amazing and It's the little things that convey a sense of presence and immersion.
I can only imagine when one day we finally have VR with ridiculous resolutions, dpi and complete FOV coverage

Alright, I think I have it mostly figured out.
Before the day starts, you pick out a lesson plan, a conversation topic, and if you have one, an event card.
Lessons determine which stat raises, conversation cards pump up point gain (and you can use multiple of the same type at the same time), and event cards give you various special events at the end of the day.
Each day during the first "session", you get to pick between 3 options.
They will either give you a great result, a normal result, or a bad result. Not only does this change how many points you get for that day, it also changes the "fired up" meter, which acts as a global modifier for point gain (ie the higher it is, the more points you get).
Great raises the "fired up" meter by between 10-15 points, good/normal gives +5, and bad can drop it from anywhere between 10-20 it seems.
You can tell how the day went by which stamp is used (square is bad, circle is good, flower is great. Or you can just read the text ;P)
The second part of the day lets you pick a conversation topic, which will give you more conversation cards that match the selected icon to pump into points in another lesson, as well as giving you some story behind Hikari.
The final part of the day can play out in 3 ways.
If you used an event card, you'll see the related event.
If you had a "great" lesson and didn't use an event card, there's a random chance you'll see an event.
Otherwise, the day will just end.
Finally, you need to be concerned with completing goals.
You can check your goals by selecting your smartphone at the beginning of the day, and it gives you objectives such as "gain x points on any skill in 1 session" or "have 4 great lessons in a row".
Completing a goal will give you a bundle of conversation cards, and/or sometimes an event card. Completing all the lessons will give you the final goal, which is usually an outfit.
You can also re-roll your top two goals ONCE, and only once, so I suggest you save it for if you get an unreasonable goal (i.e. "gain 170 points across 2 skills in a single session")
It also looks like each time you run through 7 days you get more lessons to do, and your lesson level carries over, although I'm not sure what the point is.
EDIT:
Whoops, double post. My bad.

i am guessing now the hacker will have enough motivation to hack the PS4.
Meh. No buy then. I am not going to accept this limitation lol. VR should be about freedom bruh.^_^

How long does it take to play through 7 days? Also is there plenty of events to find and collect? Seems like the game is bigger in scope than expected.
Also, the dlc trailer with maid outfit, is that just a costume dlc, or an event or extra day dlc?

Never forget.
No idea about the bottom one, but the top one is definitely just going out of camera range. You can lean down way farther than that provided you stay in view of the camera. And both of them just say, "Out of the play space" basically.

"Outside of the play area"? That's hilarious. Almost like it doesn't exist at all haha. That's okay. I wasn't trying to get this game for that reason. I legitly want to play the story.
......what is this gif from? Also, why?
Isn't that just mean that the feature don't exist/censored? No interest then.
7 days is pretty short. You can do it under 30 minutes.
For DLC, I heard them saying it's gonna be more of a situation thing, not just adding costume.
No. Watch the video - his head goes below the area that the camera can track. All he has to do is move the camera and he can successfully enjoy 'an even greater virtual reality character experience.'

No exaggeration. People have ported DOAX animations into PC DOA5. It'd really just be a matter of getting VR in there at this point.
The SFM people are also moving onto Unreal Engine 4 from Flash and will likely get into VR too.
Wouldn't surprise me if they rip / port Summer Lesson asssets for SFM.
When there's a will, there's a way.
