The first LAN I ever went to was around 2009. BFG graphics card were still a thing and I think the 780 was king. I had purchased maybe Battlefield 2 to play there. One if the vendors had a suit that did this for their game back then. This is the first time if seen anything like it since then. I’m thinking that most people don’t want to spend money on something like this based on my experiences.
I’ve tried a haptic vest back in the late aughts. Tested it with CS:S if I recall correctly. It was fun until the point blank shotgun blast. Worth a try for sure, but I personally wouldn’t use it more than once.
Out of all the haptic options, this is definitely one of the more gimmicky ones.

Wow this is so cool! No idea this existed!
How disappointing, they made this interesting new tech and all they can think to use it for is punching and stabbing 😑
How about a tickling game or something fun?
Or reverse twister where you have to stretch to touch yourself in different spots?
Who tf wants to get punched and stabbed??
Not the upcoming vr game though.
Reminds me of this thing I bought years ago

On a scale of 1-to-Sad, how disappointed with this product were you?
Extremely!
Will this fit comfortably over moobs?
The shirt probably won’t sell many units, but just wait until they release the pants.

Assassin’s Creed with stakes. When you die on highest difficulty setting you die irl.

Doesn’t tell a cost or a release date for the tech
I was talking to my friend who got headphones with haptic feedback. He told me it was the most annoying thing in the world and turned it off.
Ill accept the buttpunchers seat haptics, or haptics on the table, but on the head? Very terrible idea.
It’s effective you’ll get better at defense.
