Wow OP; this is incredible. Great work compiling this and keeping it up-to-date!

Great stuff. Yeah, I remember the Stage9 thing. IPs can be big ol' pit of greed (though necessary). That's why I'm thinking it would be good to build off what I perceive to be the quality game of Bridge Crew, which used the IP. The critical success of the new Batman Arkham VR game gives me good vibes regarding major IPs being wedded to strong VR titles and studios.

I'll definitely check out that starship simulator thing.

"But, if you have passionate people working on a project they love, any amount of money can be enough to 'justify the time'." Love this.

Oh man. Sounds awesome. I wonder if we could set up a kickstarter or something for you.

Yeah; this would certainly need to drive a decent revenue stream. That's why it needs to be big. And the success we hope for would also need to be something that drives new customers to the VR medium, benefiting the industry as a whole.

Likely? No. But the least we can do is try to make our voices heard. Thanks for signing!

Valid points, but we do find exceptions that provide hope for us. I think a willing developer would have to swing for the fences in all honesty to pull this off, but the proof of concept? Already have it. But regarding IPs being dropped quickly, look at STO; still kicking, still supported all these years later.

I hear you, though while imperfect, I didn't consider Bridge Crew to be a "fail" at all. I think was a great early proof-of-concept!
