This is amazing. The artists and developers of this “tour” have created a masterpiece of emulation.

The narrator was annoying as hell with his repeated use of “like”, but something like this could actually make a gamer of me. It was awesome!
Brown Eyed Girl –
Yes, the narrator was annoying to me, too….’like & cool’ (bleh)
But the vid was simply awesome.
Truly amazing. Hopefully, a historian can produce a video about this fantastic animation. The millenial narration is directed only to gamers.
Yep, annoying as heck, but he’s right in that it would make armchair tours of ships or anywhere else you’d care to go really fun and realistic. Throw in 3D.
Works best with volume off!
Damn, I wanted to see the engine rooms, the bridge etc. 15 mins of dining room tables blah.
…it was a pretty ship, true, but no one would care about it if it HADN’T sunk. No one thinks this hard about the Olympic and it was a TWIN that completed service after 25 years INCLUDING war service where it rammed and sunk the U-103, was scrapped after a quarter century, and parts of it were used in a hotel interior.

Also, I was over by Port Canaveral the other day watching MODERN cruise ships, and big as the Titanic was for its day, you could pretty much hoist it aboard a Royal Caribbean ship entirely and still have room for passengers around it.
Also, we are so distant from it and its become so banal to us that there’s actually a “sinking Titanic” slide for kids at carnivals. Think about this. How well would a 9/11 Twin Towers bungee jump attraction do? James Cameron movies aside, its too distant for us to feel any kinship with them.

Nice vid, though I do agree that non-passenger area tours would be WAY more interesting.
But, at the end of the day, its an icon of hubris and little more.
It sank. We should get over it.
Amazing! However, dizziness and clostaphobia stopped me at the 5 minute mark. I expected two little girls to appear at the end of one of the corridors, “like” in the Shining Hotel. Yes the narrator was annoying. And yes, I would have liked to see the engine room and conning tower. Do they show up eventually? If so, I’ll go back.
That is indeed amazing.
And while we’re at it, we as a society and culture owe it to ourselves to get away from the numbing over-use of the word “cool” as the lazy go-to descriptive word for anything positive.
Let’s make it our national goal to build up a thesaurus of alternatives in 2019.
I’m even willing to resurrect the goofy 30’s and 40’s relic “swell” to alleviate the reflexive dependence on “cool”.
That was COOL!
I could imagine those endless, narrow corridors jammed with panicked passengers trying to get out. And where were the exit signs?
those thin hallways and panicked passengers was my first thought too. And the engine room, radio room and technology should have been as important as silverware and carpet. I wonder how many hours it took to make this?
Too jerky to watch and the film jumped around too much too.
@Supernightshade. Learn something about history and the after effects on ship safety that the Titanic’s sinking had. All you seem interested in is wittering on about ‘ooh look, our modern-day ships are much bigger’, etc. The typical response of a child who only thinks anything of worth came along during his/her lifetime while sneering at the past. What a twerp.
