We’re still awaiting confirmation of the first VR game natively designed for PS5, but for now we know that many PSVR titles for PS4 are expected to support backwards compatibility on PS5. When running on PS5, those older titles are likely to benefit from the console’s greater power, which could improve frame rates, resolutions, and loading times.

To avoid awkward and sometimes disastrous learning content, instructional designers must use authentic translation in the right context to get optimal results. For example, even a simple phrase like “got milk” translates to “are you lactating” in Mexico. Can you imagine what a straight translation might do to your course? With over 317 million people in the US and over 6.7 billion potential customers in the world, personalizing training seems logical.

Source For a while, I’ve been thinking about if VR / AR (a.k.a XR) will eventually replace 2D interfaces or even a web itself. The anxiety coming from this question is one of the reasons why I jump into learning Unity 3D and C# instead of learning Javascript. And after taking basic Oculus Quest development course, learning about WebXR, and trying new titles on SideQuest, I thought through this question again with a bigger picture in mind.

Since when has learning and development (L&D) become such a negative experience with its intended learners? Could it be because learners have been conditioned by very poor learning experiences over the past two decades, combined with the kinks of technological innovation? Or is it because learning has typically been designed as a one-size-fits-all solution, despite the fact that humans are not clones?
