sivertime — Tue, 27 Jun 2017 15:34:08 +0000

It’s official: the 4th conference of Oculus Connect will take place mid-October 2017 and should mark a turning point for virtual reality! MeltyStyle makes you the topo.
The VR Conference of Oculus has a date: October 11 and 12 in San Jose, California. This conference will be an opportunity for Oculus to bring together its developers specialized in virtual reality. On the program, press conferences, announcements and presentations around this universe. Since the acquisition of Oculus in 2014 by Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg communicates enormously around the RV. Last year, the founder of Facebook presented Facebook Spaces, a sort of Second Life in RV! For now, we know that many games are to be expected (Skyrim VR, Fallout 4, Doom …) and that conf confidently raises the veil on our questions concerning Monterey, the autonomous helmet which will make pale that of Gear VR .
For this 4th edition, the first ambition of Oculus will be to open the RV to the general public. At the moment, the VR does not have good press: too expensive, inconvenient, not ultra comfortable … Bandai Namco hopes all the same to democratize it with its arcade in Tokyo . We do not know what Oculus plans on his side to reconcile the general public who still sulks it … Will there be news of the helmet Monterey autonomous? We hope so! The seats of this conference are not yet on sale, but you can register on the site to be alerted of their sale in advance! The program should follow in the wake … So, patience! What do you expect from the Oculus Connect 4 conference?

Star Wars 8: What if Kylo Ren was the last Jedi?

sivertime — Tue, 24 Jan 2017 18:37:17 +0000

Who is the last Jedi Star Wars 8? We obviously immediately thought of Luke and / or Rey. But we forgot a third possible suitor, namely Kylo Ren …
Well, we finally know the official title of Star Wars 8 . And inevitably, it gives us indications on the plot of the film and on the fate of the characters … provided you can read them, these famous indications! So where’s interest to make some assumptions about what ” last Jedi ” and its identity. And it did not take us long to imagine that Luke Skywalker and Rey could well be affected by Title Star Wars 8 and they could both claim to be the last Jedi. Except, as we still talking about Star Wars , nothing is ever simple, is not immune to a turnaround. Because there are other protagonists of the new trilogy that could just as well be targeted by this title. Finally, a protagonist, more precisely. The editorial ‘of melty obviously wants to talk about … Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), aka Ben Solo, the other major character in the new trilogy . After all, has not JJ Abrams confirmed that the latter tells the story both from the luminous side of the Force and from its dark side? So, yes, Kylo Ren may well surprise us to be the last Jedi.
Of course, at first glance, such a hypothesis may surprise. But do not forget that before putting the Snoke Service, Ben Solo followed the teachings of Luke and he planned to become a Jedi . His ambition, his emotional instability, the stature of his parents too, who knows, have finally put him off this path. And it fell under Snoke, who then succeeded in attracting him to the dark side. But on the one hand, it is unclear under what circumstances Ben succumbed to the influence of Snoke. And, okay, he massacred Luke disciples (and it is clearly evil ), but it showed throughout the Force Wake he still felt very conflicted feelings. On the one hand, he wants to follow in the footsteps of his grandfather and stay on the dark side. On the other, he still feels the call of the light and even comes to kill his father in hopes of repelling the temptation to board the good side of the Force. All that to say that it is not immune to a change in the character, especially that Kylo Ren might (or might not) be redeemed by Leia in Star Wars 8 . It should be pointed out, however, that such a change, if it should occur, should be caused by a violent trauma – physical or moral – and that it could only take place at the end. But it is possible, Adam Driver himself has teased a radical change for his character.
But even if Kylo abandoned the dark side, why would he be the last Jedi? Is not Luke and Rey already one, a confirmed Jedi, the other certainly going to become one? Yes, but there is also the theory that circulates in which Rey would eventually succumb to the dark side, becoming the enemy of Luke (if that is true, we pity the poor Jedi), while Kylo him, so would the side luminous. And if we assume that Luke may disappear during Star Wars 8 , then yes, Kylo Ren, once more Ben Solo, could represent the last Jedi in the galaxy. Or at least the last one to have followed the teachings of a Jedi Master. So it’s true, that’s a lot of ” if ” we grant you. But again, we do not have much clues about the general intrigue of the next two episodes and all the theories on it remain valid for the time being. Besides one can also imagine that the English title ” The Last Jedi ” can finally refer to three characters – always provided, of course, that Kylo Ren abandoned the dark side. Anyway, as it is expected that Star Wars 8 adopts a tone darker and more mature than The Force Alarm , there is no doubt that Ben will have to face its share of Difficult tests. And these could well force it to change course … Do you think Kylo Ren to be the last Jedi?

Star Wars 8: Can Kylo Ren redeem himself thanks to Leia?

sivertime — Sat, 21 Jan 2017 18:41:51 +0000

With the disappearance of Carrie Fisher, Leia could experience the same fate as Han Solo in Star Wars 8 or Star Wars 9. But what impact would her death have on Kylo Ren?
For almost a month now, the question before us as we, fans of Star Wars , is not that about the identity of Rey. No, one wonders especially about the fate that will be reserved to Leia. With the tragic death of Carrie Fisher and refusal to produce the digitally recreate Star Wars 8 and its sequel (phew …), the fate of the character has become more uncertain. In fact, it seems that there is only one valid solution and it is unfortunately our princess to disappear as Han Solo at the end of the Alarm Force . Sure, it risks us (again) the heart, but it is still the most logical. But if Leia were to die in Star Wars 8 or Star Wars 9 , he could what impact such an event have on the other characters ? If melty the question, it’s because Carrie Fisher was supposed to have a much more important role in Episode VIII in The Force Wake , his scenes were even apparently revealed. In one of them, should rumored to take place in Star Wars 8 , Leia finally regain her brother after years of separation. But in a different sequence, which would intervene, she in Star Wars 9 , our princess would be face to face with his son, Kylo Ren . Which leads us to wonder if the Knight of Ren could redeem himself thanks to Leia …
It is difficult to say anything about the mother and the son, since it is not known whether this scene has already been shot or whether it should even take place. However, there is nothing to prevent us from making some assumptions. If one assumes that die Leia in Star Wars 8 – which is far from being excluded – it is possible that his disappearance had a heavy impact on Kylo Ren. When he killed Han Solo in Star Wars: The Force Alarm , the young man hoped to permanently get rid of the part of light that still existed in him. But it must be admitted, Ben clearly has a problem with his father, and this for a long time! Throughout the film, he never ceases to express the ambivalent feelings he feels for Han. But he never mentions his mother. This suggests that Leia still represents for him a beloved figure but does not necessarily threaten his loyalty to Snoke and the dark side of the Force . However, the death of the princess could reverse the situation, especially if Kylo suffered a terrible change in Star Wars 8 .
Adam Driver has Tease there are some days that Kylo Ren, while remaining affiliated to the dark side antagonistic, unveil a little more humanity . But the actor has also let slip some words that lead us to believe that the wicked will not come out unscathed events of Star Wars 8 . When it has been asked by Larry King during a visit on Ora TV channel if Kylo Ren would still be alive at the end of Episode VIII, Adam Driver replied: ” It depends on the idea that you you are to be alive. “. Well, it’s not overly encouraging – and even rather disturbing! – for the character! So, some imagine that Kylo Ren will be seriously injured, perhaps as Anakin himself was in his duel against Obi-Wan on Mustafar at the end of Revenge of the Sith , leaving the In a position both fragile and delicate. If this is confirmed, imagine then what devastating effect could have on him the death of Leia!
If one sees things on the right side, it could represent some form of triggering event that would allow Ben Organa to redeem himself. For it must be admitted that the idea that Kylo Ren could abandon the dark side in Star Wars 8 or Star Wars 9 is not so improbable as that. And the emotional impact could convince him to return to the right side of the Force. Unless of course the disappearance of his mother does not push him further into the darkness. What is certain in any case is that should not appear Leia in Star Wars 9 and will require that its absence is justified in one way or another. And as it is after all the mother of Kylo Ren, who is at least as important in the new trilogy that Rey itself , it will have to have an appropriate response. Again, it was not until the release of Star Wars 8 whether these rumors and assumptions have a chance of being realized! Would you like Kylo Ren to push back the dark side?
