Interchange - VR

When interchange happened I decided to sign up to the Virtual Reality course. The reason for this is that it closely relates to my own level of production and also I wanted to know how they develop and create environments for VR. This being said, it wasn't quiet what I imagined in a sense of looking to develop my environment skills in that area but instead it was more 'play with the VR and see how fun it is'. Almost trying to sell the thing to us, I then kind of ignored the fact they were trying to sell us the VR instead I was asking the questions I wanted to know such as how they create the software and how the developers use the software to create 3D models and games for the VR.

Shamefully this experience for me wasn't as good as I thought it was but it made me realize that I chose the right course being game design rather than anything to do with VR. I'd personally say that it was interesting enough to keep me there but I could easily have looked these things up on Google in 10 minutes rather than a 30 minute lecture/play test. Don't get me wrong it was nice using the equipment but next time I'll choose something that is more closely relating to what I want or even something that isn't and learn a new skill. Shamefully on this case I wasted it and regret my decisions.
