[Holomakerbot]

This is one of the strongest counter arguments to all the cynicism in these comments. Sure they didn’t give specs but guess what neither did Hololens until preorders opened. The main thing they haven’t done yet is a live demo which we know is a challenge because when Microsoft did it they caught a bunch of flack for misleading the tiny FOV. For magic leap they’re not launching until end of the year. Demos are supposed to come in a couple more moths. But really what compels me Is all the partnerships. Why would Weta put their reputation on the line and say their magic leap game is launching this year if it were so obviously vaporware. Same for Framestore (big Hollywood gfx house) who announced this week that they’ve been working on content for years that will be available at launch as well. It’s one thing to be skeptical of magic leap, but it becomes harder to think that they’ve hoodwinked all these other reputable companies into making content for them for a product that is crappy or not ever coming out.there have also been about 30 other devs who have announced they’re early partners who have received hardware kits privately.
