    Meta was on top of everything, and would have ran away with it if they put all their metaverse money into quest exclusives.
    Alas, we've had shit all since RE4VR, which, granted, is one of the best VR games available.
    PSVR2 is a wired, expensive headset that requires you to be attached to a PS5 and doesn't even have built in speakers.

      I don't think their hardware currently could justify exclusives. I doubt Quest 3 gen could justify it either. Since it will be focused on ar and ar has even less ground to stand on than vr

      Because vrc is free and is almost entirely made up of user made content. Can’t really compete with that.

      The best way vr games could take off is allowing custom avatars to be used in them. The biggest vr enthusiasts are furries, and they’d probably play a lot more than just vrc and valheim if they could use their vrc avatar in it.

        if it has worse specs than Quest 2 and is as heavy or cumbersome, then no thanks.

        Quest 2 is good for what it does but the standalone games look like ass compared to PCVR on a decent rig, and the PC linking sucks ass and causes lots of graphical hiccups. I guess a cheaper Quest Lite would be good for average consumers who want a basic b***h experience and can't play much on there, which may be their intent to just grab as large of an audience as possible.

    The technology is cool, when implemented well it's great, but it's just not there yet for normalgays to consume.

    Unless Apple or one of the big 3 releases a VR only console, heavily markets it, and releases nothing but killer exclusives for it, then it is just a niche product as far as gaming platforms go. The VR modding scene is kind of helping.

    It needs to be cheap enough for an average normie to pick up and buy during Christmas or Birthdays, a standalone device to be used anywhere, and have killer apps everyone can use. The fact VR headsets are tied to one person use at a time also hinders it, as it basically kills any local socialization with one device available. I believe this is also why Nintendo (or at least Miyamoto) was opposed to pursuing VR in the first place since they want their gaming experiences to be social.

    There's also the fact that people still get motion sick and the tech is advancing at a rate where if you want the latest bells and whistles that make it amazing (foveated rendering, wider FOV, more somfrotable designs etc.) you have to shell out big money.

        Didn’t Carmack say foverted Rendering wasn’t that feasible, or did he mean in the context of standalone Headsets?

          He did say it
          Maybe things has changed since then, but when he said that technology had not that high enough gains to justify the hardware cost increase and development costs

      it needs eye tracking to be good
      and quest 3 wont have eye tracking
      but yeah, its a good way to make the weaker mobile hardware stronger

        homie, he did said it about dynamic foveated rendering
        And honestly, i see no reason why more games should not have fixed foveated rendering, it's hard to notice if done correctly and gives some gains
