VR headsets are worthless.

I have an Oculus Rift S, but all the others suck too. FOV too small, blurry, screen door effect, the cable is annoying, burns your eyeballs out.

There are no games, they're all just garbage minigames.
You can't even move around properly because moron programmers cannot design some useful, semi-complex movement controls.

This has been out for 6 years now. There's definitely no building or MMO games like The Matrix "Construct" type shit. There's just nothing. Just VRChat and a few other garbage things like that. I wanted something like Garry's Mod VR x10,000,000 where I can do 3D modelling and mapping from within the program. The point is that with the hands, controllers, etc. you should have 100% perfect freedom of movement and be able to place whatever you want. Instead they just made crappy minigames.

I'm trying out BoneWorks. Any other suggestions?

    It's still faster and more effective to use a cintiq, modeling with a headache inducing headset sucks. There aren't many good VR games because people still have toasters for PCs. So devs aren't inclined to make them.

    Just learn lucid dreaming. I have games and adventure every night in my own thought construct. Like, i create what my subconscious mind wants to experience at that moment. You can create whole worlds, characters, story, have sex, fly. VR will never beat entering a dreamworld every night, you can even create worlds and revisit places.

      It isn't the best (especially not the sequel), but it's still one of the more interesting short-narrative-driven games released in the last few years. I'm still expecting R@D to pull some wizardry and port it to Quest 2 at some point so Oculus can actually make their money back on it. The engine was already ported for Echo VR, so it'd just be a matter of redoing the assets to fit the mobile hardware/ram.

      Just a shame all the shit I want to play lately are Quest-exclusive, which'll soon turn to being PSVR2-exclusive.

            How would you design a non headset VR thingy? Because what you're asking is holograms.

            imagine any vr game. But the screen is projected in your monitor like a normal fps game. And you get to use the perfect aiming of vr controllers, and you get to interact with objects, and you get to swing your hands, move things and do everything you can in vr, but you are not limited to having the headset. All i'm saying, it's simple, no headset. You still get to look around, maybe using a different accesory that lets you tilt your head and it uses acceleration like a mouse so you can turn around in the game just using small gestures

          the headset is fine, they just need to figure out how to make it feel less like you're wearing a set of binoculars strapped to your face. Wider fov, better methods of rendering to reduce eye strain, less weight. The whole point of VR is that you're inside of it. it isn't virtual reality if you're clearly standing in your room playing a game. its virtual reality when your senses are tricked into believing what's going on is realistic.

          Plus, you've got proprioception and the controllers are always shown as some kind of hands. Be nice if it was some kind of force feedback gloves with stereotyped motions for inputs, but complaining that you can't see reality when you're using a device explicitly designed to supplant reality with a virtual alternate means you don't even understand the concept.

Don't give me that shit about the sinden, it's garbage camera based tracking that's laggy and not as reliable. Lighthouse shit is sub millisecond accurate and has effectively 8ms input lag at the worst, 4ms at the best. Plenty perfect latency for lightgun combat.

      The worst part is the tiny FOV. It's exactly like looking into a teacup. There's actually a headset called the Pimax 8k which has an extremely wide FOV. But hey, the headset doesn't matter if the software titles still suck anyway!!

            Virtamate is a character creation screen that you jerk off to. Its main interface is about five hundred drop-down menus and sliders and you spend three hours creating the ideal woman and then realize you can't do anything with her and also your dick has been soft for 2 hours and 56 minutes. Asking me to install plugins and shit just to get the model to fricking do anything means I may as well waste my time and blueball myself installing porn mods on Skyrim VR because at least that game has interaction by default and my player model has fricking hands instead of orbs.
            I want to jerk off, I don't want to learn how to program. I want a dating sim with Boneworks-tier physical interaction already in the fricking game, and when you date good enough, you can also frick her and bat her breasts around and shit. MINIMUM. No, that one japanese game where you're locked into certain perspectives is not the answer to my quest.

              You know you can change your hands to actual hands and interact with the models with your fingers right? Also there's enough animations/scenes that you can just load and go with your model of your choice that it keeps it fresh. You're just jerking off not marrying them (I hope). What else do you need besides a dick sucking and a bending over animation?

      HEAT and IntiMate VR are the only ones with real interactions, but they're both primarily-gay furry games.
      Games like Koikatsu let you play with breasts and put your fingers in.

      Most are animation viewers because VR is added in after the fact. If you're okay with that, the best ones are probably
      >Koikatsu
      >Custom Maid 3D 2
      >Insult Order
      >Wild Life
      >Yiffalicious
      >Fallen Doll
      >Project Lovecraft
      and then a handful of smaller projects like the aforementioned.

      What kind of interaction do you even want, though?

      Not OP but almost all of those are tech demo indie games that have a couple of hours of content tops.
      Something like Elden Ring alone gives me more hours of gameplay than everything on that list combined, and that's without even getting into the quality.

      The issue isn't that those titles are bad, it's that for the price of an Index you could have bought every single modern console and gotten infinite more content out of it.

        Doesn't matter to me if they're "tech demo indie games" if the gameplay is good and entertaining. I don't need every single game to be a 120 hour long adventure like Elden Ring, sometimes I just wanna put on my VR headset and fly around in a jetfighter, beat up some fools with a melee weapon or delete someone's skull with a shotgun.

        >for the price of an Index you could have bought every single modern console and gotten infinite more content out of it
        I'm not interested in every single modern console, I've already got a gaming PC and most AAA games are stale as shit nowadays and have been so for over a decade. VR is something fresh. Besides, if you're an adult with a steady income, 400-1000 dollars isn't a huge amount of money anyways. I spent over 600 dollars just on HOTAS stuff for Project Wingman alone and I don't regret a thing, that game is a masterpiece in VR with proper gear

        Cool thing about VR is that you can still play non-vr if you want. Plus, even if the game isn't the kind of thing you can dump hundreds of hours into, it is very different just because of the different presentation and control schemes. A cod clone feels way different when you have to move in the world and physically perform all the actions. Point and click or simulator games feel way different when its like you're actively in the room grabbing shit. Yeah, an index is a grand and doesn't have all the AAA garbage, but hasn't the majority consensus on Ganker been that AAA is overwhelmingly garbage and the best stuff is often midlevel-dev or lower

    Bought a Quest 2 a few weeks back and I have no regrets. Granted, I discovered that you can literally just pirate everything (quest or pcvr) super easily and see what you enjoy. There are interesting physics and exploration games that do cool stuff with the fact that you're interacting with the world directly. All kinds of realistic or absurd simulation games. Moss was a neat concept of basically looking down into a little diorama and helping a mouse navigate a path while also controlling the mouse. The shooters tend to be super immersive but are held down by some issues like certain games requiring you to look at your ammo for it to be grabbable or the game assuming whatever direction you're looking is forward and making checking your peripherals wonky.

    Its super unpolished, at least on the quest, but its easy to get lost in the game and plenty of the stuff in the library is real games instead of tech demos. Plus, vr is getting more and more of a userbase, proving to devs that it isn't just a fad. Oculus is scummy facebook bullshit but they created a 300$ device that allows anyone to play VR even if they don't have a hot shit computer. Honestly my only complaint is that it makes your eyes tired after a while and games with active movement instead of teleporting frick with your balance if you move too fast and aren't used to it.
