SLR's early passthrough experiments were rough, but Rubbed Down is where the technical approach matured. The full greenscreen room, no visible furniture, no bed, just the performer, produces the cleanest passthrough edges I've seen. Katrina Reed appears in your space with minimal clipping or edge artifacts, and the Quest Pro's color passthrough makes the effect genuinely convincing.
Katrina herself is a standout debut. Her performance is natural and understated, she breathes seductively without the theatrical screaming that ruins immersion in most scenes. The response was immediately positive, and it's easy to see why, she deserves a callback. The camera positioning splits the difference between seated and lying down viewpoints, which gives you flexibility in your player settings. One commenter notes it finally doesn't feel like "floating above everything," which has been a persistent passthrough issue.
The main limitation is hardware-dependent: without passthrough, you're staring at a green background, and SLR really should release alternative versions with black backgrounds for standard VR viewing. Scale runs slightly large in a few positions but nothing that can't be adjusted in DeoVR or HereSphere. The frustration here is directed at SLR for not bringing Katrina back, not at the scene itself, which tells you everything about how well it landed.
