I just got a Meta Quest 3 and I’m trying to find games that really use its full-color passthrough in a meaningful way, not just as a fancy menu. Everything I’ve tried so far feels like a standard game with a transparent background, and I’m starting to wonder if that’s all there is. Has anyone found an experience where the blending feels truly intentional and the game mechanics actually change based on your real room?
Yeah I chased that too. I found one experience that tried to anchor virtual objects to real walls and furniture instead of floating in a menu. The passthrough wasn’t just cosmetic; you actually had to move around to trigger certain puzzles and the objects would glow when you got close to a chair or a door. It still felt rough around edges, but the mechanic changes with where you stand.
I gave up on a lot of them because they felt like screen-door AR. The room awareness is decent, but the gameplay didn’t bend to your space much beyond a few transparent overlays. It’s like they shipped a thing and called it MR rather than building around the room math.
I tried a small session in a bright living room and then in a dim hallway. In the bright room the tracking held up, in the dim spots it drifted and the virtual bits started peeling away from the real edges. I kept the lights on, reset the boundary, and still saw subtle shifts in geometry that killed the immersion.
Do you think the real problem here is that there aren’t many titles that truly adapt to your space, or is the hardware still not reliable enough to feel like the room is part of the game?
I kept thinking about this while I brewed coffee and wandered the room after a session. The thing that stuck was how a good spatial soundscape can sell the illusion even when visuals stay vanilla. Then I’d get pulled back to a half baked overlay and remind myself maybe the real problem is not the tech but the design.
One run crashed mid game and I ended up crouching behind a chair with a virtual wall. Felt ridiculous, but I guess it proved the space can break the flow when the tracking isn’t forgiving.
