点评:I'm retired - very! For my 75th birthday, my daughter bought me a gift card so I could experience a VR "escape room". (I am still a "geek". When I was a young teacher fifty years ago, I was the first to bring in a Sinclair ZX80 microcomputer to my school. It was the future!) My daughter agreed to join me in the "escape room". We arrived and were greeted cheerfully; the space was prepared, and we were instructed on how to use the headsets. If you have not used a VR headset before, it can be very "counter-intuitive" - you have to move without taking any steps!! We were warned this beforehand but it was still difficult to overcome basic instincts! The young male VR guide stayed with us, and encouraged us with hints (he could see how inexperienced we were!) At one point, I had stepped out of the play area and the guide had to ask me to step into a virtual void to get me back in the right place. Such was the "virtual reality" I was very reluctant to do what he asked - for fear of "falling" hundreds of feet! We did not complete the quest, I don't know that we got even close, but - as my daughter commented when I took the headset off - my face was a picture of joy and wonder! I cannot recommend the VR experience too highly - whatever your age, if you still think that a computer is a pretty awesome thing AND YOU ARE NOT INTIMIDATED BY IT, this is a must-do experience. The Manchester Meet Space VR Team were very kind and professional - whatever they thought of a 75-year old blundering through their electronics, I was treated extremely well. To the point, in fact, that one day I will ask my daughter for a "return match" - we've got to solve the mystery of the Pharaoh's Tomb, in the middle of a Manchester industrial estate!
翻译:我退休了——真的!在我 75 岁生日时,我女儿给我买了一张礼品卡,这样我就可以体验 VR“密室逃脱”。(我仍然是个“极客”。五十年前,当我还是一名年轻教师时,我是第一个将 Sinclair ZX80 微型计算机带到学校的人。那是未来!)我女儿同意和我一起去“密室逃脱”。我们到达后受到了热情的欢迎;空间已经准备好了,我们还被告知如何使用耳机。如果你以前没有使用过 VR 耳机,它可能非常“违反直觉”——你必须移动而不采取任何步骤!!我们事先就被警告过这一点,但克服基本本能仍然很困难!年轻的男性 VR 导游陪着我们,用提示鼓励我们(他看得出我们是多么缺乏经验!)有一次,我走出了游乐区,导游不得不让我踏入一个虚拟虚空,才能让我回到正确的位置。这就是“虚拟现实”,我很不情愿按照他说的做——因为害怕“坠落”数百英尺!我们没有完成任务,我不知道我们是否接近目标,但是——当我摘下耳机时,我女儿评论道——我的脸上洋溢着喜悦和惊奇!我极力推荐 VR 体验——无论你年龄多大,如果你仍然认为电脑是一件非常棒的东西,而且你不害怕它,那么这是一个必须体验的体验。曼彻斯特 Meet Space VR 团队非常友好和专业——无论他们如何看待一个 75 岁的老人笨手笨脚地摆弄他们的电子产品,我都受到了非常好的对待。事实上,有一天我会让我的女儿来一场“回归赛”——我们必须解开法老墓的秘密,它位于曼彻斯特工业区的中心!
