I think the Cyan Worlds guys might have the right idea at the right time. With the Oculus Rift coming out at some point soon in a more general fashion, it could be very good timing. I think basically this class of games could actually be perfect for the platform. A lot of the video of trying to play Team Fortress and similar on O.R. kind of makes me dizzy.
I think many people (myself included) would be very interested in seeing a O.R powered 'Myst' game of some sort or another. If anyone remembers the movie eXistenZ, I can somehow see worlds like that eventually happening. Would be interesting stuff if actually taken outside of the sci-fi context!
Edit: The right idea at the right time was in regards to Kickstarter.
