Road to VR Seeks Feedback on 2-Part News Format After Months of Testing

1 articles · Updated · roadtovr.com · Jul 21

Summary

  • Road to VR asked readers to weigh in on a new article structure that splits stories into “The News” and “My Take” sections after testing the format for several months.
  • The change is meant to separate basic facts from broader analysis, letting readers get the core news quickly while still seeing why the outlet thinks a development matters.
  • Scott and the author said the new setup also allows more first-person commentary and individual perspective, replacing the publication’s older style of weaving context through dense paragraphs.
  • Road to VR framed the experiment around its nearly 26 years of combined XR expertise and invited feedback publicly in comments or privately by email.
