gamers realized that playing vr means getting off their ass
this
IT requires more than me sitting on my ass
bringing my Quest 3 back to best buy today
I play VR daily and none of them require getting up. You just need to clear some space around you so you can swing your arms without hitting something but they all have a seated mode unless it's specifically some exercise type game.
>more and more people in VRC have FBT
>they're all sitting or laying down 90% of the time
It's fricking true.
FBT?
full body tracking
Fpbp
That's why the Steam Deck is so successful.
2expensive x 2gimmicky = DOA
although its getting better
buy in price - if it was just $600 on its own it'd be no problem, but the early headsets were more expensive than that and thats before you considered the $1000 pc it needed to be tethered too. Plus, they require a large enough space to play in, most households cannot accomidate for it.
On top of that, no games. There's barely anything worth playing in VR that doesn't feel like a tech demo or a gamejam game. And the previous points means no players so no devs want to spend time on it.
>expensive
>obtrusive
>nobody wants motion controls
>everyone wants to sit on their nice seat with their expensive tv/monitor
>expensive
Quest 2 costs $250, and it was down to $200 on sale this season.
Too expensive for experimental, low budget games. Even for fapping, I'm not about to expend $1000 just for another way to touch my dick.
this is the real problem. real games with VR mods blow games made specifically for VR out of the water. the games haven't meaningfully progressed in years, everyone is still making Wii-tier shovelware minigames or glorified tech demos.
This might actually be a good thing. With uevr out (may take a couple weeks for user created 6dof motion tracking profiles to come in instead of self tweaking) that makes pc the only "console" actually bringing anything new to the table. Gives people an excuse to get one when they haven't had a "need" in the past at least 15 years since smartphones and consoles took over
its a containment board. one that you should go back to
>>/vr/
lurk more homosexual
/vr/ is a gatekept board
i can only be in vr for like 20 minutes before i get dizzy
It did take off temporarily, unfortunately the library doesn't have staying power because the AAA are scared to adopt it (seems like only Valve has put an honest effort into it). Indie devs need to go above and beyond which will take time.
Personally I would like to see VR games that aren't afraid to feature cross-platform multiplayer experiences so that those in VR can interact with those without and all the goofy antics that entails. I think that is one of the strengths for VRchat. Give me that with a full-fledged open world rpg or something. Maybe player classes where certain classes can only be played with VR?
>Play new release
>It lasts 7 hours, tops
>Wait 2 months for a new release
>Repeat
I have played through just about every single map on the Alyx workshop during dry spells, I would happily pay that $70 premium price tag that publishers are clamoring for if they actually made VR games
I got a Quest headset for Xmas from my brother and it's basically what I was waiting for VR to turn into before I cared. A standalone, cordless unit that's powerful enough to run the games I care about. Personally I'm over the moon about having Beat Saber at home now, and I've been enjoying Superhot VR too.
Have you tried Asgard's Wrath 2 yet? I haven't taken the plunge quite yet but it sounds like it could be really cool
>AAA are scared to adopt it
This is the reason. AAA studios refusing to take risks has been going on for over a decade now, so it's no surprise that none of them want to touch VR. This is why we have nothing but tech demos now by indie studios.
The main problem is that capitalism turns every industry into sterilized garbage for the masses so they can maximize profit. Most companies legally have to get more and more profit every year to pay shareholders.
>capitalism
FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS YOU COMMIE- ACK
>low adoption rate. network effects are a b***h
>impractical. you need a spacious room. if you don't make games that require the player to move around, might as well use a gamepad instead
>insane hardware requirements and cost of hardware
>every single manufacturer wants to lock in people, who are extremely averse to that
>most people want full dive VR, not this crap with visors
the only thing holding it back is lack of content on it, sadly modern business is ran by idiots so the people who should be making games for it stopped investing small sums to make potential future profits(new games and franchises) and the big players making the hardware are too dumb to make their own decent games thinking the idiot ran game industry would make games of their own volition
>sadly modern business is ran by idiots
businesses exist to make money. if you want to lose money, that's your problem.
it's the chicken or egg problem: no audience, so no games. no games, so no audience. and no one wants to be the idiot that bells the cat to open the floodgates and make everyone else lots of money.
>make everyone else lots of money.
I mean, if you can't capture the revenue, it's not worth investing in.
Curing a deadly disease, for example, is a terrible idea, for example, because then you won't be able to periodically scam idiots for the luxury of undergoing ludicrously expensive excruciating treatments.
What makes the most money is usually not what people want or need. Misaligned interests and incentives are present in all facets of life, and one of the big reasons why markets fundies are absolute morons and should be round up and shot.
>be round up
be rounded up
There's too much baggage right now. Sadly we live in a very fake and gay age
Where do you go to get coom content for VR? I'm talking about seeing yourself walking into an anime girl strip bar and thinks like that.
It's going to take off now that Apple is getting into it.
The real reason is that valve is the only company to really invest in making a vr exclusive killer app. Outside of niche early adopters, you need games to move units. Nintendo and Xbox don't have VR, and Sony has tepidly pushed their headset, but you need normies to buy in.
Cost, and you need to have a whole room dedicated to it. Also it seems to have a bit of a backend problem of stuff not being compatible.
Developing for it is probably expensive and annoying and when you are done with that nobody will buy your half baked game because nobody has VR
the industry changed its focus from innovation to appealing to the lowest common denominator for maximum profit margins. trying to make something new like VR is the complete opposite of that, the average videogame player is now a normie idiot moron who barely ever even thinks of of even getting a race wheel or joystick, so of course they're not really interested in a more expensive gaming tech thing with less games, and the market is all about appealing to these morons. thats why 90% of the vr games are waggleshit for 7 year olds
When I talk to people about VR a lot of normalgays think it doesn't have enough motion controls, they want to be able to backflip over bullets like Neo if they are in good enough shape
you could literally do that with a wireless one and enough empty space though.. what do you mean lol
>enough empty space though
do you happen to have a spare omnidirectional VR treadmill anon?
but you cant do a backflip on a treadmill and you can do it in open space
you can literally walk around in vr games with enough open space and just walk with the thumbstick intermittently, you can physically be taking cover behind virtual walls and be jumping out from behind them
you cant do that so easily and naturally on one of thoes dumbass treadmills
>VR didn't take off
tell that to my wallet
Best VR set for goon?
I lost all interest when zuck bought oculus because israelites rape kids
i eventually wanna set up a VR rig for racing sims and casual flying sims too
but it's like $5000 for the motion rig before you get to the actual gaming hardware
one day when my penny stock goes up 10x i will do it
facebook bought occulus and brought in the dark VR age
>2019 specs
>still $999 just like 5 years ago
Whew I really wonder why..
what reason would niche stuff get cheaper?
it'd have to be mainstream and produced in large scale for that to happen
>VR is expensive because no one buys it
>no one buys it because there's no games
>devs dont make games because small market
a vicious cycle
quest sells gangbusters and it's still expensive. In fact it's getting more expensive instead of cheaper.
$650 for the new headset
get RIGHT the frick out of here.
yeah, but 90% of quest users are ironic weebs who just play VR Chat or normalgays that use it for porn
your opinion is formed by /vg/'s vr general
these troons roleplaying as anime girls are obviously a minority and you need to go outside and see what the real world is like
i see like half of million fricking nerds on vrchat who use vr.
i think it just hasnt reached poorgay Nintendo Switch coverage yet but its not dead
because of the insane amount of people that RMA every piece of this kit
alyx was cool but it's not a good game
I had more fun in the half-life 2 VR mod
>I had more fun in the half-life 2 VR mod
Did you play with laser aim on? I kept it off cause I wanted to keep it somewhat close to the original experience but aiming down the sights with cross bow and combine rifle was annoying as shit.
It did with everyone that matters
White people with disposable income in the first world
Every time I play my multiplayer VR game of choice, it results in the same thing.
People throw tantrums when they die. From kids to teenagers to full grown ass men becoming outraged that they died once in a fricking video game.
Then they leave and quit.
There's an aspect of physicality to VR that turns people into fricking monkeys.
It's like they're subconsciously aware that they're putting much more effort into playing the game because they're standing and exercising at the same time.
So everything that happens to them in-game is taken personally and responded to with actual fricking rage.
It happens every fricking day. If they don't get what they want, they start crying like a baby and leave.
It's impossible for me to host a multiplayer lobby at all because of this.
what games? if its battleroyale or some hypercompetitive shit like that then thats completely normal for that community
pavlov was always good wholesome fun until the guy updated it and kinda fricked it all up
Population One has the chillest playerbase for a competitive game
You are describing a CoD lobby from 15 years ago, i wouldnt blame VR for that shit.
Except CoD has millions of other players you can join on the drop of a dime and play the game
Most multiplayer VR titles have a dead community and you can't play them by yourself
Trying to fill a lobby is impossible when every player is some 13 year old with zero patience seeking instant gratification and leaving the game the moment something doesn't go their way
people don't want to shit there with stupid fricking goggles on
too many people get sick from playing vr
>loool poorgay
vr is $300 and gets you 95% of the experience of premium headsets
Aren't there 90,000 people playing that monkey game?
People meme that PS5 has no games but VR truly has no games.
shut up snoy. i fricking hate vr but even vr has more shit than ps5
Lol pcvr has more sony vr games than psvr 2 as of a few hours ago
i don't really know what's happening with vr
does Ganker even talk about it? i have some money i might spend on one but i don't know anything
if you have the money for the best setup you want the index motion controllers and lighthouses with the bigscreen VR headset. that costs $1500 before tax but will be by far the best setup and look and feel like real life if your computer can handle the game at 120fps or more
how old is that tech? i wouldn't want to buy something that's going to get a refresh soon
the motion controllers/lighthouses are a few years old but its by far the best on the market and its the cheaper part of the system at $500
the bigscreen vr headset is $1000 and just came out like a few months ago and you might not even be able to get one without waiting on a list for a while and idk how much longer they'll be sold for because its a much smaller company
so it seems that the vr isn't as hardware dependent, but where does that come up as an issue? is there some games that just don't work well with older headsets?
im not sure what you mean. if your computer doesnt get good framerate and you dont have good motion controls and good headtracking the overall experience can be extremely disorienting and jarring, its unpleasant even if you're like me and get no motion sickness because its difficult for your brain to coordinate everything and it ruins the immersion which is the whole point
but if you get 120fps+ with the hardware i described it will look and feel like real life, albeit a little bit fuzzier. i have no experience with that headset though and my headset is the index which is much lower resolution so its easier to get better frames but things far away or with small details can look pretty blurry, like its hard to read the numbers/letters on displays on a wienerpit or a dashboard without leaning closer to them, but the bigscreen vr headset has way higher resolution, but the even bigger benefit imo is how lightweight it is, putting very little strain on your neck and not making your head insulate so much heat which is more an issue if you're playing a game that involves a lot of physical activity or play for many hours at a time
i got a 4090 it should do it
The other guy is lying to you, ive been playing VR with a 480 8gb and a Quest2 with no issues for years. Yeah im not playing with the highest graphics but its the real deal. Thats an ancient graphic card and a cheap vr set. You dont need to spend a lot of money to get some good shit.
The issue is more older games weren't compatible with all headsets. Usually they were vive or rift as the main divide. Steam removed the ability for them to differentiate like a year ago so not it's just a generic vr capability signifier. So older games are a risk even for quest users but everything made from like 2018 and on is primarily rift/quest and vive now
It's not old. The downside is it's not wireless. The upside is a huge comfort difference and blacks that actually look black. Lighthouses are old but they're not out yet. On their way now that inside out vive trackers just released but you got a few years at least.
Nogaems. Why would you shell out $500 for a headset when none of the big titles coming out are VR games.
none of the big titles coming out are fun anyway lol
ive had more fun playing american truck simulator in VR for the past week than ive had in any AAA game in like a decade
You don't need a VR headset for American Truck Simulator.
it feels a lot easier since you can judge your speed and distance from other objects a lot better and look around more intuitively instead of having to press buttons and not look exactly where you want or have to use the mouse which feels clumsy
i even tried trackIR with it and didnt like it on even any kinds of settings anything like playing it in vr
in vr its fricking awesome and i can even mount videos playing on a second monitor to watch stuff
>quest weight: 530 grams
bigscreen beyond weight: 127 grams
less weight means less imprint on your face, if any
>It's not as "realistic" as people made it out to be or how I expected it would be.
try modded assetto corsa or half life alyx. you do have a gaming PC and didnt just buy a standalone vr headset to use on its own did you?
I've got HL:Alyx. Although when I tried it was with my link cable, which maybe turned me a bit off from it. I'll probably try via air link at some point to see if it feels better without the wire being tangled around me and shit when I try to look around.
airlink or the new steam link app for quest are both good options. Just remember that you need 5ghz wifi. It's shocking how many people are still on 2.4ghz.
ive seen people try the air link a little bit and it was ass, maybe because they were trying to connect to a 5g network which has speed but not as much range or whatever, or maybe vice versa
but i have an index and with just a pulley cable thing screwed into the ceiling to hold the cable up but let it come down if pulled on makes it feel almost the same as wireless. only thing is you want to probably try to not twist it up too much because it will break the cable eventually which for index has a 2 year warranty but its expensive if its not covered. so theres something called FPSvr which just shows you how twisted it is at any given moment (if at all) so you can know to angle yourself in game to turn the opposite direction some to fix it but it tends to not be an issue aside from when the game has a staircase where you'd end up turning around a bunch of times in the same direction to go up or down a few floors so i just use the thumbstick
i thought i used 5g and it was shit, maybe it wasnt 5g. but i know ive used steamlink to stream regular videogames to smartphones on 5g and it was stuttering like ass, and i switched to 2g and it was suddenly perfectly smooth... maybe the router is too far from me to use 5g well or something
is there any good flying games out yet? figure flight sim would be on this...
There's actually a pretty cool Iron Man game, not a flight sim per say but you do get that sensation of flight
I bought a game called VTOL VR which is really cool. It's might be a bit too much of a sim for me, took me 5 attempts to properly taxi and take off in the tutorial.
problem with simulated flight is the flight rules would be obnoxious for n00bs. a bunch of shit goes on in taxi that no one who doesn't want to die irl would care about
There are a few VR missions on Ace Combat 7, but they're Snoy exclusive
There's microsoft flight sim.
There's a few space sims
i prefer dcs, il-2 or even war thunder simulation mode to microsoft flight sim when it comes to VR. mfs2020 is much harder to run, DCS and il-2 have force feedback and war thunder has actual gameplay. i love war thunder simulation mode in the ww2 era in VR, i dont have the best fighters for the era but i can get some player kills with bf109 and i like doing bombing and strafing runs with the p47, shit is so comfy setting trim and just cruising up into the sky and across oceans or battlefields
Expensive and requires a lot of space when the economy is shit. Also a lot of people get motion sickness and can't play it no matter how cheap it is. Even without motion sickness you can only play for a couple hours before eye strain sets in
Zuck bought it
No porn allowed
Too expensive
No big games since the quest and rift hardware was shit
>Zuck bought it
>No porn allowed
the big two
But I goon to VAM on my Quest 2 all the time?
And yes it is linked to my real FB account I really don't give a shit.
Also have tons of pirated JAV content on it.
What a dreadful thread.
Anyway I'm playing jedi knight 2. It's much harder than I remember.
Jedi Academy is next.
>jedi knight vr
Tonight's gonna be a good night
Yeah but not because of JKXR.
oh shit
>expensive
>people are still developing things for it
>barely runs anything by itself
I'm probably going to get one eventually, but it is literally just an expensive monitor. I'm going to wait until things settle down and there is a 'standard' good one until I get one of those.
I would only bother getting one of these if I had to use it for work or something.
I bought a Quest 3 recently. It's cool, but I'm rarely reaching for it. Its uncomfortable to wear, nothing will normalize giant goggles on my eyes that are strapped to my head. My eyes also get stained after awhile. It leaves a giant red circle on my face once I take it off which means I can't even go out anywhere without looking moronic. A lot of the games I tried handle movement very weirdly. It's not as "realistic" as people made it out to be or how I expected it would be. There's some things that are cool about it, but still not there imo. Some of the mixed reality stuff is cool though, although Quest 3 passthrough cameras are dogshit unless the lighting is just right.
Also at least with Quest 3 the battery life is disappointing and if you wear a link cable it just adds to the weird bulkiness and ruins the experience.
The best chance was the Occulus and Zuck managed to frick that up. Give us something cheap like the Quest 2 that ships with a SlimeVR equivalent and we finally have a solid start
Huge supermajority of the people with money to spend on vidya are less than physically active.
Lots of people are just inherently unable to play VR due to failure genetics causing them to be unable to tolerate virtual locomotion
Very very few actual games designed for VR, most end up being ports with VR camera control, or "sandbox experiences", and there's usually a year+ gap in between the real games.
Insane cost to entry (GOOD pc, GOOD headset, trackers can easily run up over $2k USD.) Quest is pretty good in handling a lot of that by just streaming to the headset from your pc as well as having it's own android chipset, but it's still not great.
I think quest will get more and more popular and eventually capture a large enough slice of the market to justify its expenses, but idk about fully great, enjoyable anything.
It'll never take off either, it's been over a decade in this latest stint and nobody is going to look at something failing to launch for a decade and go "yeah that seems worth investing in".
sony also kneecapped VR by not having their psvr2 backwards compatible, they essentially ruined interest in their platform.
I get exactly why it's having trouble finding a wider audience, but it's a bummer because it really does feel like a cool experience with a lot to offer.
>28 million quest 2s sold
it already has
you've been left behind fattie
>>28 million quest 2s sold
19 million of that number was brought by military of various countries preparing for WW3: Ze Attack of the Drones Electric Boogaloo
Forgot ze webm
Man. I've seen pics of those ukie drone operators and their "VR" headset look so fricking slick. I'm jelly as frick.
pics
>minhas anteninhas de vinil estão detectando a presença do inimigo!
BOOBA
some of these look very similar to bigscreen beyond but also different enough that it must be a different headset, interesting
they just gave the moron on the upper right a virtual boy
i wonder if they see shit in 3d. that would like double the amount of data being sent but wouldnt really be that noticeable except in closer quarters unless the resolution is extremely high, aside from maybe being able to judge the distance of the ground which i suppose would be useful if they're divebombing a suicide drone... but that would be expensive to have vr cameras on and just blow it up...
flying a drone with high quality VR video would be fricking fun
it's not VR its FPV drone glasses. Low FOV, low resolution, no tracking.
the shit these people do is pure evil. i hope they get skinned alive.
oh come on now, they're just killing russians, they're hardly animals anyway.
It's only just begun.
>Justifies your VR purchase
In Polyphony Digital, I trust
>buying a race sim setup and VR for one game (ok resident evil too i guess but still)
do sonygers really
If you own a ps5 and have a mediocre pc then there's more than enough games on psvr2 to have fun.
are you talking about using the headset on PC? last i heard one guy was starting to crack that but sony was making it as hard as possible
if i could use my index on a ps5 id buy a ps5 just for that and gran turismo i guess
anyone buying VR is buying it for 1 or 2 titles, no matter what platform they're on, don't kid yourself. That's all it fricking has.
I got mine for Beat Saber and regret nothing. It's true that it doesn't have the same flood of releases as other platforms, but I'm hard pressed to care. I get enough out of my headset with Beat Saber alone and the other games are a nice bonus
That's my point, how can you possibly slam anyone for buying it for one or two titles when you did the same fricking thing?
>the other games
WHAT OTHER GAMES
hl alyx
okay, what's left?
>m-muh b&s
sandbox
>b-boneworks?
sandbox
Everything's fricking barren nothingness preying on mods and ugc.
hell naw i love dirt rally 2, half life alyx, wanderer, subnautica, walkabout mini golf, kayak VR, vtol vr, american truck simulator, pavlov (before the last update at least, might be ok now it just killed the mods it had at the time), assetto corsa, eleven table tennis, hell even war thunder, tetris effect connected, DCS with a frickin FFB joystick and pitch trim wheel for real as frick plane simulation where the neutral position of the stick actually changes based on trim like real life, pistol whip on expert and dual wielding (with auto aim on), il-2, paper beast, demeo, compound, transpose and theres still a lot of other games im forgetting, games i havent even tried yet and games i like but dont have the patience for yet (but ive been working on that successfully) or want to wait to microdose to play, like fuji or amid evil vr. and wrench is getting updates that look really promising
pcvr is great
Racing sims with VR seem really fun but if you want the full experience you kinda have to go all out with a wheel and other shit which really drive up the price to an extreme amount JUST for racing games
At the time? too expensive and most of the games were too jank and glorified tech demos.
Nowadays, VR is pretty cheap to get into and there are some great games but we're still not in an era where people take VR seriously. Give it 5-10 years and I think VR will have some great games and we'll begin seeing nearly every AAA come out with a VR option.
Because most modern game devs are creatively bankrupt and technically moronic so the prospect of a device that not only requires creating gameplay in a new style, but optimizing it to run reasonably on PC or a standalone headset causes 90% of all devs to be filtered at minimum.
The best I can do is a shooter in Unity. Take it or leave it.
VR taught me how to play the piano and now I'm an aspiring musician on my way to becoming the next Hans Zimmer. I hope someday someone makes an app for Violin.
I got a Quest 2 over Black Friday and I've been having a blast. Mostly been playing Into The Radius and AC: Nexus. I 100% agree that you need a decent PC since most of the good VR games and VR mods for flat games don't run on the Quest's shitty mobile hardware. On the plus side though, Quest games are absurdly easy to pirate and playing games which are kind of janky or limited but still fun doesn't bother me as much when they were free. I've been playing WH40K: Battle Sister, and I would have been pretty pissed if I paid the full price for it but since it was free I've been having a lot of fun slaying heretics with a power sword in one hand and a boltpistol in the other.
Contractors is pretty good too, the fact that a lot of the big players haven't moved into VR yet means that it's got a lot of mods that would 100% get shut down otherwise, like ports of full maps, loadouts and game modes from other games like Halo, TF2, CoD zombies, etc.
Honestly the biggest selling point to me for my quest was that I could just... Use it as a PC headset. I don't care about full body tracking, so the only downside to it over the other headsets was really how it's shitty controllers didn't track well when you reached for your back, and that's fixed by buying their absurdly expensive pro controllers (which I got for $100 for the set from facebook marketplace)
If you have a PC, would highly recommend trying robo recall (it has a quest port but it was never updated from it's early quest 2 days so it looks HORRENDOUS.), asgards wrath (&2 if you want but I wouldn't recommend full price for it).
also if you like survival crafting, valheim has a 11/10 VR mod that non-vr friends can even install a flat version of and see your arm movements. It is hands down one of the most enjoyable experiences I've had in VR, period.
Thanks for the recs. I'm honestly trying to pace myself though since I've got a bunch of games on my VR backlog already, so I'm trying not to start anything new until I finish one of the ones I've already started. I'll add those to the list though, but I think I'm going to do either the HL2 VR mod or RE4VR after I finish Into The radius.
The tracking behind your back hasn't been an issue for me, but I do kind of wish I had a tracker for my hips since trying to cross-draw something on the opposite side doesn't work very well a lot of the time.
>and that's fixed by buying their absurdly expensive pro controllers
oh nice i didnt know about this and $100 sounds like a really good deal
>robo recall
i never even heard of this before, looks cool.
i never bought any VR games from a platform besides steam, i keep forgetting about them all and maybe they dont go on sale for as cheap but lone echo 2 and asgards wrath 2 seem cool
- High barrier to entry
- Little to no full games (e.g. HL Alyx), instead just gimmick stuff.
Zucc bought out all the devs to make mobile shovelware. No new good games, no interest. So instead of amazing immersive singleplayer story games we get potato graphics, and good games get neutered for the smartphone with a screen. Pissvr ruined consoleplebs first impressions of vr, and microshaft is moronic and missed the chance. Online vr is basically trash because of the influx of children with smarphones strapped to their heads, and its also very easy to hit the point where an online game flat out dies from playercount. All this leads to almost noone wanting to take the risk on amazing sp vr story/immersive games. Just multiplayer mobile game trash. I still boot up stuff like H3 and ITR from time to time, but the only vr game I have even been moderately interested in thats not out is sushi ben, which just looks fun.
is there any good fitness-related vr games
i always wanted a mocap boxing at home. great exercise
thrill of the fight is one of the best boxing games you'll get, and pretty cheap.
If you can find someone to play against, creed is very good, looks good too.
Blade and Sorcery.
Get fit while being a fricking psychopath.
You don't want to sweat inside your headset.
I just wear a sweatband and use the fitness gasket from VRCover. Works great.
Use a moist towelette and clean it out after you fatty.
Quest is one of the best exercise devices out there right now.
Too expensive and not enough games. 90% of VR "games" are glorified tech demos
I'm thinking about getting meta 3 or whatever its called. Can I still give Zuck the middle finger with sideloading?
Yeah. You don't need a facebook acc anymore just a 'meta' account (which you can use a burner for, there's no verification or anything).
Sideloading is still very easy to do, make a meta acc, tick a box saying you're a developer, then reboot your headset and you have dev access to sideload.
robo recall is an arcade game and not a 'story', very much something you boot up for 15 minutes, play through a stage, try to beat your score.
But yeah, RE4VR is solid (crucify me now but I think it performs better as a VR title than RE4make VR, even though it's locked to meta)
HL2 VR runs fantastic, so does portal VR (this one will test your sea legs if you haven't played anything very fast paced yet)
Asgards wrath 1/2 are solid story based titles, 2 is a lot LOT more advanced, and is about 20 hours long start to finish, probably 30~ if you go for 100%, there's collectibles, reasons to revisit levels and content, and more. But 2 is not worth $60. Use a discount code or something to get it to $40 and it's MAYBE worth it, but I'd wait a few months, and it'll probably be down to $30 or $20.
if you like neko atsume, neko atsume VR is fantastic, simple, silly fun, it's just dailygated nonsense like the phone game, but you can pick up the kitties and swing them around. 15/10.
>robo recall is an arcade game and not a 'story', very much something you boot up for 15 minutes, play through a stage, try to beat your score.
i prefer games that focus way more on gameplay than story so i dont really care if it has no story at all
i suppose i could pirate those games, i think i tried to with lone echo but it didnt work, i dont like to pirate things though because a lot of games have problems without getting all the updates nowadays and it sucks to invest time into a game and lose a save file because the crack put it in some place i cant even find or isnt compatible
>neko atsume VR
kek i never heard of this game at all but that looks fun in vr
i think ive seen people in military using bigscreen beyond and ive seen them using a massive bulky heavy thing that would probably be exhausting to wear all day
20 to 30 hours long? homie ive got atleast 30 hours in the game and am only just now opening up the second mortal’s open world. The first area with Abraxis I’ve barely done much of the optional stuff, and have unlocked maybe 40% of the two maps you play with him. The second mortal starts off in a totally new map and who knows how much more there is. Even the IGN reviewer took 90 hours to see the game to completion and they didn’t do anything close to a completion it’s run.
Asgards Wrath 1 took me around 30 hours to beat though. Once I destroyed the big ass tower in the wave shooter w/ the big ass orc that can fire off his hand like a rocket, I had roughly 35 hours played. I probably could’ve gotten another 20 or 30 hours out of it had I decided to go back and complete everything too. Size wise Asgards Wrath 2 is MUCH bigger. Every fricking temple and dungeon aside from the side stuff are Zelda tier and can upwards of over an hour. The first mortal had like five of them. Each one with unique puzzles that have kinda blown me away and reminds me a lot of games like Portal / Zelda. Such a shame it’s held back by being a stand alone title but it still looks good on my Quest 3 tbh. Feels like playing a massive PS2 era open world RPG with modern day mechanics. The scale of some of the set pieces is insane too. Gameplay wise it feels light years better than the first game. If it continues being as good as it’s been for me, and I didn’t even mention all the neat online shit and hella addictive rouge lite mode that integrates with the main game and is even beneficial as it helps collect resources, then IGN’s 10/10 will be totally warranted.
Only real complaints is that the performance isn’t great. In the Nile and during some of the rifts the game has had some big stuttering and hiccups. It has also crashed to the Quest’s main menu like four times. Other than that it’s amazing.
Also wanted to add, I feel like most of the people who talk shit about AW2 played two hours of the starting temple, or only just barely unlocked the first mount and open area and have no clue on just how god damn big the game gets. Each mortal plays totally different. The first guy is really vanilla but the second b***h is totally wild. Your eel sword and harp bow take a few minutes to get used to but god damn is she powerful as frick. I’m flying around on my bird and dive bombing onto fricking gators and snakes and it feels great. Puzzles and shit are all very Ocarina of Timeish and never feel frustrating but still feel rewarding even though they’re pretty easy. The combat feels fricking great too. It’s not super realistic and physics based but it rides a fine line between video gamey and physics based and it feels great.
God I hope they’re able to release it on PCVR eventually with massive graphical improvements. If it had better graphics I’d consider it better than Alyx.
Yeah, and they're probably pretty close to losing money on every quest 3 as well if you don't buy any software from them
too expensive, including hardware requirements.
that's literally it.
it could be so simple
$200 headset without shitty motion controls, just for visual immersion.
then you port 100 classic games to work with this headset. stuff like deus ex, sell them for $20 max.
then, when it takes off and more people have the hardware, you can think about making games specifically for vr.
sega should get into vr
would be the greatest coup in vidya hardware
Not enough good games, which was in turn caused by Facebook industry sabotage combined with the Facebook attempts at walled garden market dominance while their hardware is super shit and wouldn't be able to run demanding games in the first place.
theres a good bit of good games, theres just a lot of garbage to sift through and you might not even know what kind of games youll really like without trying them since its very different from playing videogames in the traditional way, so it can be hard to find them due to these two factors combining
Most good VR games are ports or mods of "normal" games. That's because "normal" games actually focus on being good games in the first place, rather than focusing on a control scheme as a gimmick as what the vast majority of VR games do. Almost every VR game tries to be "VR" first and a good game later, so even if the end result ends up good it's probably going to have lackluster content, poor level design, no ambition and so on, or it's some rhythm game where you're expected to do the same shit over and over. The result is that you sometimes get good core mechanics but there's hardly a game around them to use them in, so you get all these games which are barely more than tech demos or at best have a 6h campaign and the whole thing is done. Why isn't there even a single, good like 100h RPG in VR (not a port like Skyrim or whatever) after so many years? Why aren't there a whole bunch of good games with like 30h campaigns or something?
All the best shit is a mod. Quake and DOOM in VR with a good mod/level pack/WAD are better than like 95% of other VR games and their VR support is basic as shit, because once again it takes more than focusing on "VR" to make a good game.
Nobody is doing anything because Facebook actively tried to buy out and kill competition and to suck up all talent so nobody can even begin to compete and despite that still haven't managed to make a single game as good as Alyx.
a lot are, i wouldnt say most. depends if you have a race wheel and flight stick maybe and if you're into that
facebook is getting games out.
There wouldn't even fricking be an assassins creed vr game if they didn't pay for it.
Exclusives aren't inherently a bad thing, especially when no one is fricking doing anything with it otherwise.
I wish I could make Sandlot produce a VR game... one that doesn't chug at 5 FPS, which is probably impossible for them though.
It's all part of the fun of their games, but I imagine the slowmo would be terribly not fun in VR.
It will. Give it time. Remember, video games were a thing for decades before they popped off big time.
People don't realize it but VR is still growing and only getting better, and eventually it will get cheaper.
Not enough SFM porn.
Why has no one tried to come up with a Quest-compatible MMO in a popular brand setting?
A Pokemon MMO would sell like hotcakes for example, assuming you got someone other than GameFreak to develop so it doesn't turn out to be a complete disaster.
probably because the popular brand has higher profit margins on shitting out a crappy game with its brand name being the only selling point
Tell that to VRChat, it took off.
I've been playing American Truck Sim in VR while passively watching livestreams inside the truck, it's comfy and relaxing
Isn't that what people do IRL except they get paid for it
Yes.
Truck drivers get paid fricktons, especially right now. Trouble is there aren't enough so the ones that just do straight up meth to stay awake and haul for 40 hours consecutively get the big contracts, and if you aren't willing to take on 24h+ stretches you'll get "offloaded" very quickly.
I did hauling for about 20 years and made enough money to buy my own truck and that is straight up the absolute bare minimum to work in the field, cause that's the only leverage you'll get over companies that want to hire you.
I hear amazon pays surprisingly well though.
yeah but it lets me see places in america i'll never go, in a $150k truck i'll never get to drive
Yes, but you're responsible for the truck and yourself and everyone else on the road with you.
Imagine all the fun parts of long haul trucking, with none of the downsides and stress.
and stress a lot over it
and are kept away from their families
and have to force themselves awake driving through the night
and...
ive been a pizza guy for years, im used to driving for hours late at night for shifts that go 10+ hours long and being a lot more physically active than truck drivers usually are unless they're required to load and unload the trucks themselves which seems to be uncommon
and pizza delivery SUCKS FRICKING BALLS NOW with how fricking expensive used cars are, how impossible it is to repair new cars, how expensive gas is and how people still tip close to the same amount for the past 15 fricking years despite money being worth like 1/3th what it was 15 years ago
>how people still tip close to the same amount for the past 15 fricking years
Be grateful people tip at all. Tipping culture is a cancer that hurts everybody because you are reliant on tips instead of your company paying you more. As a customer tipping sucks ass because a lot of places have a "delivery fee" these days on top of the already overpriced food, and then the customer is expected to tip on top of that too.
the only difference is the government cant tax it. otherwise they'd have to charge more for the food so they can pay drivers a better wage. and they'd have to charge even more than tips because it would be taxed
anyway the restaurant industry is probably collapsing, its been slowly and steadily losing employees and sales over the years, less and less customers cause the same or more amounot of orders being backed up and workers being overwhelmed, and now it costs an absurd amount of money for worse quality food than ever before
i dont eat out at all anymore because even decent resturaunts cant manage to not frick up simple roasted vegetables or a medium rare steak and it costs so much more than just buying and cooking myself
>The price of the food went up, so 15% of more is more tip
most people dont tip delivery drivers based on the percentage of their order, at least not when it counts. which is understandable. i dont need $15 to carry 5 pizza boxes a few dozen feet, doesnt really make sense to me, but it sure makes up for how shitty the rest of the tips tend to be
anyway frick that shit, never again, modern pizza guys are practically doing volunteer work with how expensive used cars are now and how much they use up their own car, all while risking getting into fricking accidents all day long
>most people dont tip delivery drivers based on the percentage of their order
oh my bad, I thought it was the same as serving.
The price of the food went up, so 15% of more is more tip. In fact, tipping has essentially been recession proof in my experience as a server.
Manager increased cost of food on the menu, I got a pay bump. I miss getting tipped t b h
IRL has a whole different level of responsibility and danger which are huge negatives you don't get in the game, i don't even know why i have to explain this though....
dude are you literally me
also thats a good resolution what headset is that?
i heard it wasnt like that anymore because of the 12-14 hour daily legal limit to driving but i dont know much about this stuff. but it has been making me want to do this as a job
particularly the idea that i could possibly take a contract and work for a bunch of money in a short period of time then not have to work for a while, but im not sure how viable and practical that is and you're making it sound pretty bad. also the food situation seems shitty if i cant park near a chipotle or something, i have celiac disease so i guess it would be a lot more difficult to eat well
>daily legal limit
lol
lmao even
there are literally HUNDREDS of exceptions to bypass that law. Guess what covid was? A giant exception that companies are still riding on.
There are no functional, existing, protective limits right now, and even if there are, the instant you try to take advantage of, or invoke them, you will be fired, and they'll find someone else who will shut up.
The food situation really isn't that bad, if you've got a decent cab (hopefully you would, even the shittiest cheapest trucks nowadays have some basic amenities) you can bring a little hot plate or even an air fryer and make anything you'd like. It's not real food sure but you can manage. I had a minifridge, chest freezer, and air fryer.
Look into it if you'd like, find out for yourself, but speaking for myself, it isn't what it used to be, and isn't worth the effort you have to put in.
Contract work like you're talking about is the sorta shit that they do for long haul, AKA those multi day stretches under extreme deadlines.
shit Black person if i could use a hot plate and an iron pan id be cooking steaks, burgers, eggs..
but yeah if that overworking bullshit is still a thing and id need my own truck to make it worth it at all then frick it. i want some kind of freelance work i can pick up and drop at will but having to drive way too much would make my upper back too stiff and sore to even recover from and wouldnt be worth the effort and even reaching the legal limit would be pretty physically exhausting to me
>Look into it if you'd like, find out for yourself, but speaking for myself, it isn't what it used to be, and isn't worth the effort you have to put in.
but thats like fricking everything now except bs remote work fake economy gay jobs which are apparently a thing
frick it i think ill do some entry level IT help desk remote work thing my cousin does. it seems so gay but frick it
Probably not to the extent you want, but fishing/crabbing work, or other explicitly seasonal work like it are the way to go. I did oil rig work after I quit trucking, it was 1 month on 1 month off (that one was a safety requirement) and it was pretty nice. Impossible to keep any relationships going though when you're just straight up unreachable for days at a time.
shiit my cousins husband is basically bubba gump... i just met him recently, complete frickin redneck dude who sounded exactly like bubba gump in every way lmao, been shrimping all his life, passed down from his fathers career... it seemed cool but hard and he told me the culture is such that if you dont blow everything you make on hookers and blow before getting back on the boat for another trip all your coworkers will hate you lmfao
seems kinda fricking based though... and seems like it could be cool living on a shitty shrimp boat for a week or whatever at a time that they do, albeit probably uncomfortable too. it sounded pretty cool but hard and he was saying he cant find people to work for him and or to buy shrimp from him because our country has been allowing imported shrimp which is way cheaper and lower quality though
theres so many options for work but it all just keeps getting worse over time and keeps making it fricking harder and harder to decide
>a week
usually 2 weeks on, 2 day port (1 of which is offloading and sending the catch) and then you're back out for the second half of the season. (Usually ~1mo starting oct 1)
If you do particularly well it's not unheard of for crab/shrimp boat crew to make 40-50k, higher ranking crewmen getting 60k+ for just that 1 month of work.
yeah that sounds like what he was telling me
but holy shit he didnt tell me how much they'd make
what the frick. must be really hard if it pays that well in such a short period of time
It's back breaking work, deadly work, and sometimes you catch nothing, and that means you don't get paid (and even if you do catch, soemtimes you don't get paid cause people are fricking shitty).
If you can't handle being at sea during extremely choppy weather collecting your cages and traps, and manage to not fall the frick overboard, you won't make it.
Everyone has to be physically capable, that's the #1 important thing for sea work. You may need to be the one that grabs a snapped line, and hold that fricking 150lb cage from sinking into the nil until someone can come back you up. Cause if you lose it, guess what, they'll dock your paycheck for that hunk of shit.
sounds based, im in decent shape but not that big (180lbs at 5 foot 9) and if i dont eat and rest good i get pretty tired though so i probably couldnt hack it but id like to try, i think i need to lift more so i could maybe hack it better at this or similar kind of work, that would be so sick to make a ton of money in one month doing hard ass work and spend the rest of the year relaxing and working out to prepare for it
It wasn't for me, I couldn't hack it, and the sheer stress and pressure you put yourself under for that month is tremendous, and it's not like you get to just go sleep for 11 months, even if you're working out, you need to be reaching out and making sure you have a SPOT on a boat for the next year. The nice thing about those shitty deadliest catch tv shows were that they forced a lot of old guard to retire and quit, which let a lot of new blood in, but it's back to being very locked down, so without a lot of experience or proof of experience you'll get laughed out.
Idunno though, if you're interested in it, start reaching out. I'd recommend you seek out some year-round or long season boats to hop on, they usually pay something more like a typical hourly rate (usually pretty low, $20/hr~), but it's a foot in the door.
>without a lot of experience or proof of experience you'll get laughed out.
damn, yeah thats not surprising with how hard it sounds. maybe if i get built-fat enough they would give me more of a chance lol
> they usually pay something more like a typical hourly rate (usually pretty low, $20/hr~), but it's a foot in the door.
that doesnt seem too bad, thanks a lot for the info bro i was trying to ask chatgpt about these kinds of things but it wasnt being very useful and i was needing to talk to somebody about this stuff to figure out more what its like and stuff, i greatly appreciate it
of course man. I'd just like to reiterate my experience is like 2 and a half seasons, and then a couple years working as a monger on the docks before I retired (thank you bitcoin), so I'm not by any means the end-all-be-all resource. If you live near a major fishing port, just fricking go, ask, a lot of them don't do the online shit, just talk to someone ask how they get into it, how you'd get into it.
i live an hour away from 2 coasts... which is something... also i could ask my cousins husband. i will definitely look into this more eventually if not soon, i probably dont have it in me right now but could soon, just adjusting to the fact that my dad passed away recently i guess and i need to find work now but probably shouldnt try to take on too much, again thank you
>what headset
reverb g2, its cheap and finicky buy has great visuals
oh yeah i was interested in that because it has higher resolution but i heard it has a lot more issues getting it working with games compared to index which just werks

I have never played a VR game
kids in 2034
>I have never played a non-VR game
Highly doubt. VR has serious flaws regardless of whatever tech advancements we get.
>VR has serious flaws regardless of whatever tech advancements we get.
specifically? many genres don't face the common flaws I think you refer to.
In 2034 we can gladly talk over how wrong you were. We're here forever so don't think you won't be around.
how wrong? I don't think 2d is going away at all. however, it's feasible the only system some kids in 2034 play is whatever VR/AR hybrid their parents have.
C'mon guys it was a joke comment why did you all have to reply to it
Every single game I've played on Quest 3 starts running like shit after a few hours. Standalone is such a meme, it's no wonder it's dying. The experience for most people is complete dogshit. The only game that ran flawlessly the whole time was Eye of the Temple (probably because it only took 3 hours to beat). That was a fantastic experience all the way through, especially with the 170% resolution boost from Quest Game Optimizer. Very immersive room scale game with no wires
>after a few hours
Yes it's probably overheating. The decision for it to have such a small battery was deliberate.
>170% res boost
>overclocking the fricking arm chip
>surprised it's running like shit
alright nevermind dude.
The only game I boosted was the only one that even ran properly. Assassin's Creed Nexus and Asgard's Wrath 2 both run like shit at default settings. Assassin's Creed Nexus is unreal at how bad it runs, I can't believe they even released it like that.
Again, you're playing outside of the expected parameters. I'm not defending it, just pointing out that of course it's gonna start to fail.
I don't know what you are even talking about. Many people are complaining at how poorly it runs. It doesn't matter what you do, there is some memory leak or something. It has nothing to do with heat.
>I'm playing it for several hours when the battery lasts 90 minutes TOPS
>why is it running poorly
maybe because you're running it constantly fricking plugged in, bro, not a hard concept to understand.
You realize you can put the headset to sleep right? It happens if you only play 1 hour at a time. You eventually have to hard reset the headset or it will run like shit forever.
>Expensive
People spend thousands on pcs right BiS
The real problem is it needs space. When the average 20 something person is living in a cramped apartment, with a pc setup that shares a room with their bed they simple don't have the space to move around like the better games require
I just set up my pulley system so I can play PC VR. Any recommendations?
God damn this looks moronic, why isn't it just wireless?
latency, bandwidth, battery life, weight, performance overhead
No point asking, leashgays are fanatics.
The funniest thing is most of the time it's indexgays playing at 90hz, which means terrible picture quality thanks to the lenses and low resolution AND "high" latency within 3ms of wireless solutions.
Wireless requires Ethernet cable and steam link. Plus cabled is just better for PC VR.
It's not. Cable is redundant cancer which holds vr game design back.
good luck achieving 4k+ 90fps video transfer wirelessly
Good luck achieving it wired.
you literally can with modern usb cables but ok
Bigshit beyond struggled to get to 90hz, normal picture quality is only available at 75hz.
Anyway, cables are obsolete. You don't need so much bandwidth with foveated encoding anyway.
Can't wait for valve to release the next HMD, so you stupid drones can finally accept wireless.
HMD?
ok it's just not viable yet, I have no idea why you think I'm against it

Oh god, imagine the smell JFC.
Name 5 good games on VR.
They fragmentend the market for something that should have been just a simple peripheral you can connect to ANY device like you can a usb gamepad.
Too expensive. Games kind of suck. People get fricking motion sick because it is JUST immersive enough to trick the brain into thinking you are moving while not. Meaning you get super sick and have to lay down. I quickly adjusted, others never do.
lol lightweight pussy dropped out before he could handle it.
I bet you couldn't even handle a single race in sprint vector.
It took off just fine with the quest 2's release. It just doesn't have a long standing community because not that many interesting games and lack of comfort. The one thing I'll never understand is if they're going to make a stand alone headset, why put all the electronics in the facial interface? Why not just put the barebones shit in there to function as a display and put all the rest of the components elsewhere like in a belt? The fact that its so heavy is why people need to invest in head straps or counter weights instead of just using it right out the box.
You basically need to clear outor rearrange an entire room to have a good play space. Even if you only sit when you play VR you still need some more room then sitting at a desk.
Is quest 3 that much better than 2.
Not worth upgrading from. Wait for headset with eye/face tracking.
What I don't like is the porn on quest 2 when I get up close makes me crosseyed as frick
the pancake lenses on the 3 make it much less of an issue, though it's a lot more generally blurry.
No, there is no change. It's a recording issue, nothing to do with headset really.
>What I don't like is the porn on quest 2 when I get up close makes me crosseyed as frick
Nothing changed in that regard in q3.
yeah thats an issue of the way its filmed, something about the way the lenses work and are stitched together causes a distortion effect when you tilt your head or look at something close that isnt near the center of the view. its not noticable when looking at whatever is in the direct center of the whole thing but that makes it look like the girl is towering over you in an impossible non-euclidean way
Doesn't help that moronic prostitutes don't know how to get a proper recording and keep going close to the cameras.
Personally, recorded vr porn was a massive let down for me. The "models" are ugly, the res is low, yet high enough to see every pimple, plus aforementioned recording issues.
Yeah, 3dpd is really disgusting.
lmfao the vast majority of it is so fricking bad quality, bad angles, downright horrible looking women who look good in thumbnails with makeup but youd never want to actually see up close

not worth the upgrade, but if you don't have a quest 2, it's worth buying over it.
Buy the smaller gb model that goes for $500 instead of the $650 one, the size of titles on the quest never expand past like 60gb (and that's for the absolute largest title, asgards wrath 2), most shit caps out at 10-15gb.
no games
500 bucks
no reasonable prices for old gen
stillneed a decent pc and the cherry on the top
only 2 good games alyx and resident evil village
development is harder, as there are less developers that have the tools, funding and required knowledge to build good things for VR
but with Apple joining the AR/VR space it should bring some attention and open things up a lot more
it's been far slower than i would have imagined but definitely don't count out VR being an important player in gaming/other general uses
VR failed because it was not the revolution it promised. The goggles are an expensive replacement for the right stick on a gamepad. The motion controls have limited application because outside of first person sims they become a redundant layer between the player and the game's interface.
Im probably gonna get a pico 4, the best bet right now but im mainly getting it for porn and vr chat
>the best bet
>a company pulling out of the market entirely
do you buddy. If you want it just for porn and vrchat index is a better value proposition cause it includes body tracking setup.
yeah I just want the bare minimum for a decent price, especially fi the fad is dying off. also didnt know the company was pulling out, but still I can see people wanting to support it
The fad isn't dying off, just pico, they had huge hurdles selling in the US and the US is, despite all the issues it's been facing, #1 for luxury electronics.
UEVR mod supposedly dropped but I just woke up
Approximately 11000 games will now have some sort of VR (not all will be perfect but enough will). Uevr may be the breakthrough vr needed
Imma prob be lazy and wait a couple days for people to optimize profiles so I can just dl and swap it in and avoid the headache
Now we just need to wait for good UE games.
Don't forget to grab today's free epic game Ghostrunner. It has a vr mod and if it's unreal it should be full vr today
no thanks, tim!
Nah, I already beat it (on steam) timmy
I was part of the initial buyers for the HTC Vive in early 2016. While I had a blast with it, I don't really use it in the present. I've had my fun with it and the only thing that would get me to buy into another headset is more robust support via hardware and software. The VR gaming space is still too segmented and it hasn't found a comfortable position to rest in. They are still experimenting with what works best and the newer tech the looks promising is still wildly expensive. Maybe when Gen Alpha become adults we will see VR have higher adoption which could allow for more investments into software support and building a more cohesive hardware system.
VR is going to stay relatively niche simply because of motion sickness and most people aren't willing to relearn basic motor skills and do things manually that you otherwise wouldn't have to. On top of it being work. Take something like Bonelab/Boneworks. If people don't puke their guts out they can't wrap their heads around parkour or climbing.
Battle Talent is a video game.
>Battle Talent is a video game.
lol
Are you that failed /vg/ content creator that got ass blasted people had fun with this?
It's the same as DMC you can just hit y like a homosexual if you want or you can get good and style.
>relearn basic motor skills
Are you a cripple or something?
Even my parents can use VR without issue, what do you have to relearn how to use your fricking arms?
It's more about completely lacking the sensation of touch, the different perspective and often janky VR physics, so on, so on. The basics of walking and grabbing things isn't hard but something relatively simple like rotating weapons, adjusting grip or throwing with strength and accuracy. Lots of bellyaching about physics-based melee games because they can't get used to it. I just want more fast-paced VR games and I need to get off my ass and set up the VR mod for Ultrakill
>janky vr physics
modern game devs just suck, janky physics is a plague on all modern games, its the best evidence of how they arent even trying, they cant even hardly make an engine where the player can actually interact with the environment without shit being all janky and shitty. it used to be so much better. shit is going in reverse
>motion sickness
I never experienced this once in VR. how weak are normies that they can't handle motion in a 3D enviroment? Can these people even go on rollercoasters?
I'm a generous tipper, I gave my last doordasher $20 and a half pack of cigs
So you paid what, 50$ for a single meal, maybe two, including that?
Can you see how most people might not do the same?
Delivery orders often cost 25-30$ total even with a small tip.
i used to make up to $30 an hour doing door dash around here for a few hours a week. now im lucky to make $15 an hour after gas expenses and everywhere i go theres other drivers waiting to pick up the food. the apps let so many drivers in its barely profitable anymore after considering the gas and wear and tear on cars.
low level delivery jobs are now mostly just volunteer work for israeli megacorporations
Nobody could have seen that coming, surely
I like how conservatives replaced "capitalists" with "jews" so they could continue to get their bootlicking flock to vote for them while fighting a new boogeyman
nobody in politics is complaining about israelites. They literally had to make up a term - zionism - to be able to START critiquing israel.

moron Zionism is over 100 years old, well before the creation of Israel.
She's not supposed to be happy!
Oh, of course comrade. I don't know why people think the GOP hates israelites or that Russia didn't take Kyiv in two days as planned.
in what alternate dimension do conservatives not only not worship israelites but actually vilify them?
you have lost touch with reality or are desperately trying to paint a picture with dishonest arguments. probably just desperate to call conservatives racist because you moronic left/right brained false dichotomy worshipping subhumans literally cannot stop trying to prop up this fake two party system that does nothing but frick you in the ass by giving each other low key reacharounds by pretending your so called opponent is even a legitimate political player and not just a red herring used to distract you. yes im a racist. no im not a fricking homosexual ass conservative. but you're the conservative parties greatest asset because you perpetuate the false narrative of left vs right with your constant pointless bickering
>in what alternate dimension do conservatives not only not worship israelites but actually vilify them?
You been under a rock for the whole "America declares national emergency because we've run out of military surplus to give to Israel so they can usher in The Rapture for us" situation?
the poster i was replying to was implying that republicans use israelites as a boogeyman...
im not russian. but i am israeli lmao
me too, comrade
You used double-negatives ESL-kun
and it was correct usage of them, esl-kun
>does wrong
>projects wrong on others
Ok I believe you're a israelite
Your education failed you
>not only not
No, you're so wrong I hope you shit your diaper before Hamas cuts your head off
How would you have expressed that conservatives worship israelites and would never vilify them in that context then, mr. tardy?
that's a lot of text, ivan
I ain't reading all of that disinfo
>doesn't know how motion sickness works
bravo, american school system
Because it's expensive and a gimmick with almost no games for, and you need a dedicated area with a lot of space if you want to fully enjoy it.
UAVR MOTHAFRICKA
who the frick would wanna wear this crap all day past the novelty period
im a PC gamer that loves VR even my VR playtime is incredibly small LMFAO
maybe in a bunch of years from now that might change, but currently? LMFAO
What's porn like in VR? Does it let me use my hands?
Surprised to see Valve has this listed on the steam store. Any benchmarks or first impressions yet?
Poo-hardware which came out way too late.
Made obsolete by eye-tracked wireless streaming with foveated encoding.
>$450
what in the absolute frick
>youre gonna receive it any time now guys i swear
>never ever happens
there is probably enough video evidence to claim that it actually exists but this is giving me decamove vibes starting by the brazilian name
It did take off. Then Facebook killed it.
The VR industry is presently being strangled by inside-out tracking, LCD panels, and game exclusivity.
It had a bright future in 2016 but there's little hope left.
yup. Nobody will bother pushing VR as it's too easy to coble together some shit mobile game and feed it to all the morons who suck zucks wiener
>This guy comes up to you and slaps your controllers with analog sticks out your hands and hands you a pair of vive wands. He tells you to stop using artificial locomotion because VR legs don't exist. What do you do?
I hate that fat frick so much it's unreal.
frick you chet you whack-ass purple homie Imma slap ur shit biethc
also your new game sucks
*drops mic*
Many reasons. Personally I think the biggest reason though is the space requirement. Not only is it expensive, but theres a massive potential for not just injury, but also breaking stuff nearby.
You people are talking straight out of your ass. I play right at my desk, no more space requirement than usual.
Thats great and all, but do you play things that require much movement? Cause pretty much anything of interest for VR require a decent space to move in. If you're not moving much, whats the point of playing it over a controller?
subnautica in vr is a good seated game. vr adds immersion, in subnautica in vr it really feels and sounds like you're underwater and its really cool. its not all about the waggle
It's amazing how many anons are missing out on that part. The immersion is so good. A mediocre game can suddenly becomes awe striking when you feel like you're there
Conceptually VR makes the most sense as an additional control scheme + display device to be used by any normal game.
Instead of facebook's closed-ecosystem of mobile-shovelware-tier cancer.
Everything I've played has had a seated mode. You can still lean around in your chair, shoot guns and touch things with your hands, toss grenades, etc. You can get up and jump around if you want, but it's not required. I love just playing most of my normal games with it because it's an enormous screen and extremely immersive. Outer Wilds, Subnautica, Half Life, Dying Light, etc, all felt like I was in another world.
>Cause pretty much anything of interest for VR require a decent space to move in.
I don't know where this moronic idea comes from or who perpetuates it, for the most part anything good or remotely recent won't need you to manually move around your playspace.
Too expensive, pushed by Jim Ryan as the next big thing.
Because it's not an airplane HAHAHAHAHAHAH XD
Stop pushing vr, let me launch my vr headset before another company puts some r&d in.
Pains me to say but I think Apple is actually on the right track. Augmented Reality has more chance to take off sooner than VR.
Also I think VR lacks a major masterpiece that makes you think "oh shit I must play that" and commit to the hardware.
AR is further off/less developed technologically, there's a reason you only see people making first real attempts at it now.
>Check top mods on any VR game
>It's all power fantasy garbage like god mode, cheats and super strength
Still was less headache than spraying electrical contact cleaner on them everyday
Wtf wrong post
skyrim was the only thing worth putting in more than a few hours
I just haven't been able to bring myself to mod skyrim man
if you put more than a few minutes into skyrim you should be put down
All games are mobage tier levels of garbage
There’s nothing it does better than any existing tech
It’s ugly and uncomfortable
It lacks mainstream support
It has no apps
Apple hasn’t released their version yet
They last like an hour fully charged
Resolutions are way too low
Pass through sucks ass
It’s just a very expensive toy
I could go on and on bout this but i think you get the point.
>It’s just a very expensive toy
so video games?
If you want to spend console money to play mobile games, be my guest
yeah, video games are an expensive hobby
who knew?
You can watch movies and shows on it. It's literally like being in a gigantic imax theater and having it all to yourself. The screen is enormous. Everything I've done with VR has been amazing.
yeah i like to just have my computer desktop screen floating above me in VR while i lay in my giant beanbag or my bed. and obviously i can just put on movies, shitpost, play videogames, whatever
you just need one of these for computer use, and an xbox controller for games
everytime i put my headset on to play a game i end up gooning to jav vr
the majority of other guys are probably the same
I don't really get the appeal of JAV VR, the stuff I downloaded isn't that great, I think that I even prefer western stuff.
Any good codes to recommend?
Do I need any extra hardware to connect the Quest 3 to my PC to use PCVR wirelessly?
Decent router.
I honestly feel bad for people who never played HL Alyx, and i feel bad for the ones of us who have because it's the best we get and there's nothing else....
I just play Walkabout Minigolf these days, great game tbh
Alyx is so bad that I had to force myself to finish it.
Even HL2VR mod is better.
>look at me! i'm being "le contrarian" do i fit in yet?
nice try homosexual
You need to have 80 iq to enjoy alyx. As a game, it's trash, objectively.
A decent scene viewer though.
Funny because HL2 is just a boring ass tech demo
the meow wolf course looks so cool
Main issue is the games. There's not enough of them that are actually games. Many of them are nothing but short, expensive, often buggy and not that exciting tech demos. There's a few great ones but not enough to buy a VR set.
too many competing standards with exclusive software
games are either short tech demos, or have 50/50 chance of requiring set you didn't buy
hardware too expensive to deal with that
It's annoying to use. The headset is uncomfortable.
Needs to fit lightly and comfortably on the head
needs to be completely wireless
needs better games
needs to not give people headaches
headaches would be caused by heat and low or unstable framerate mostly, or disorientation if people are sensitive to that. but that last part is something humans can overall adjust to more easily by not being a b***h
Do you think your brain is cooking when you get a headache?
overheating is 1 possible cause of headaches, not the sole cause of all headaches
Ok, but they're talking about overheating like in sunstroke, not your face is sweaty from wearing a piece of plastic. I imagine people would be more likely to get headaches from eye strain because that's what non-moronic people know to be true.
other way around but it also seems to be caused by blood vessels constricting and dilating sometimes
i wonder why
Oh, this is out?
>Chilling his own channel
Nice try
?feature=shared
wait so it just werks on nearly any UE 3 or 4 game???
no way
the performance and motion controlls in all these look really good...
Ue4 (technically 4.5 so earliest ue4 might have issues) and ue5. Just came out a few hours ago
sweet. if only i could filter my steam games by the ones running unreal engine
There's a mod for that. Called racicrupta tool or something I cant remember. It tells you what games in your library are compatible with what mod (primarily his mods and the uevr mod)
I played some tony hawk with it, seems pretty neat
apparently you can hook the camera to your player but I cba to figure that out
check discord for a profile where someone already did it. that one has a high probability even tho way early
afaik there isn't one yet, the TH channel only has 7 posts and they're all before UEVR launched
I'm not in a rush cuz I still have to do all goals/golds on literally every pro so I'm sure it'll pop up at some point
Which one is the best to use as a virtual desktop under $500? I don't care too much about games. Wired is fine.
Is the xreal air 2 good enough? Apparently it simulates just a 1080p screen.
Only quest 3 you can plug a mouse and keyboard (bluetooth also) ans use all that microsoft office crap standalone. Xreal would suck except for maybe steamdeck and watching internet streams
>Only quest 3 you can plug a mouse and keyboard (bluetooth also) ans use all that microsoft office crap standalone. Xreal would suck except for maybe steamdeck and watching internet streams
I don't need it to be standalone, I'd plug it to a PC/Mac
still better. can do deaktop anywhere wireless with a stable connection. virtual desktop is remote pc from anywhere but you need a good connection to do so (was to unstable for cheap internet wifi, i was going to get a jetpack hotspot for it). on local wifi it doesnt need a super optimized connection for flat pc stuff. helps for vr apps tho and virtual desktop has it's own passthrough
if you do go quest 3 be sure to use a refferal code https://www.meta.com/referrals/link/Broke_Mexican before you order. both you and the refferer get a 60$ credit so its like getting it for 440$ insead of 500$
just dont use this link if you do get a quest
becuase mexicans
None of them are good for that use case yet.
I love VR but the PPD is very low compared to a monitor even though you can do a lot with a VR headset.
I hope it never takes off, right now its just white-middle-class people using it. Its the best gaming experience ive had online sonce the late 90s, early 00s. If it becomes mainstream most of you Black folks and poorgays will want to join the fun and ruin it.
Virtual Boy already tried it and failed.
video games were tried and failed by 1983
the magnavox oddysey exists so video games are bad. checkmate.
>take off
im playing my flight sims right now
If anyone is into emulating old nes/snes/n64/ps/ps2 games, EmuVr will change your life. That shit is by far the best way to play old games and its free on steam.
Does it do accurate crt shaders because I have been looking for something like this every since I got this quest 3.
I dunno if accurate but I'm fairly certain it does crt shaders. Also its free so go try it. I gave up on it cause I couldn't get the right roms (was specifically trying to do light gun games)
Also it's not on steam, you gotta find their discord or wiki type page to get to the download link
It has different tv sets from the 80s to the early 00s, if the CRT shaders are accurate its aubjective, but it tries. I was playing megaman 3 and it really took me back. Its pure nostalgia, specially if you put up posters and shit, its up to you how much soul you want to give to your experience.
>no way to disable all that bullshit mess and just have a CRT in a black space
Frick the moron dev.
You can just turn the lights off and you will get the same experience as a black void.
And pay the performance cost for nothing.
Its free dude, i dont know what to tell you.
Ok oji-san
Tried it out and I gotta say, not bad. Setting up a real desktop crt and getting the aspect ratio right sucks fricking ass and this makes for a good cope. I'll probably play all my classic games like this.
I just searched on steam and it’s not there
Ok i lied, it has steamvr support so i thought i was playing it through steam. My mistake, its still free on their page though.
Okay I’m starting to set this up. SteamVR support is cool. I hope it’s not hard to emulate
Also dont do their (apply for access) or whatever thing. Just keep looking there's the link somewhere with no wait. Or maybe someone here gave me a link I cant remember.
https://www.emuvr.net/wiki/Main_Page
There you go anon
wow they actually put a download link now instead of telling you to go on their fricking discord
But I have flash carts
Honestly this lets me play metal combat falcon's revenge and time crisis properly. Too bad I can't run gal gun through this.
it is there, it exists, people enjoy it. not sure what you are expecting.
It's just another man(child) who was raised entirely on video games who is now stuck in an endless loop of trying to recapture the magic of his childhood, but fails repeatedly because he's not young anymore and the market is now catering to a new generation of people. Since he never had any hobbies beyond video games, he has nothing left but to force himself to try and enjoy a hobby he fell out of love with years, possibly decades ago, and so he comes Ganker to vent with others who have similarly fallen through the cracks of meaningful human existence.
PS VR >>>>> PC VR >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Quest Garbage any day of the month.
It's a little screen pressed up close against your face and it's impossible to market. You can't really show what people using it are seeing and looking at it from the outside is just some butthole flailing around with a box strapped to their face. At least with the wii nintendo could have some actors laughing and happy doing hte wii bowling motions and shit. VR has nothing for advertisers to work with.
If I can play this in EmuVR, I will be happy
I'm pretty sure it's all ps1 games
I think for sony it's ps2 that starts to have issues. But again I was specifically looking for light gun games, mightve just been those that couldn't do ps2
Also it's rai pal that's the tool that tells you what games in your steam library are compatible with uevr
i still have a quest 1. is it worth upgrading?
From quest 1 definitely. But pc with a 4000 series should be your priority. The biggest difference is the lenses. Like it's not blurry and basically no glare. I use the pass-through a lot more than I expected. Peripherally
yeh but if you didnt like vr with the quest 1 then who the frick knows what's the right call for you
all you're gonna get with newer headset is higher resolution and panel quality
Also quest 1 had a hugely noticeable screen door. And the wireless pcvr from quest 1 to quest 2 was a huge difference. Solved most of my stutter back then
If you like VR, absolutely.
Like the first guy said, the biggest thing you might notice is the clarity from edge to edge and the lack of glare.
I assume you're using it for PCVR based on you still using a Quest 1, one other thing to be aware of is it might drastically raise requirements if you upgrade since you're rendering more at a higher refresh rate.
Upgrading from a 1 to a 3, you'll cry.
i have a quest 2. Went to a buddy's house with a 3 and tried it out a little bit, it was very nice.
also there's only a week left to get the 60$ refferal credit. it's only 60$ if you activate the headset before the 7th. so with 2 day shipping (standard i think) you only have 3 or 4 days to order to recieve it in time to get 60$ instead of just 30$. both parties get the credit.

Shutting yourself off from the real world is giga gay.
why are you here then? go socialize in real life
Playing modded skyrim or fallout in vr is epic. for some reason normies cant handle the motion inside vr
Shutting yourself off from the real world is giga based.
>literally a single good game and it's a PC exclusive
>motion sickness
>you look like a complete gay
>waggle
>cumbersome, annoying to put on
>requires a lot of space if you truly want to immerse yourself
>cheap headsets are literal trash
almost none of your points are even based on a kernel of truth
they really are reaching to make some argument against VR kek
The meta quest specifically is making it take off
I tried VR once. Worst mistake of my life.
>Put on the headset
>instantly overwhelmed by motion sickness

>Get an apartment in West Philadelphia

>I got in one little fight and my mom got scared. She said, "You're movin' with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air"
put me in the screencap!
The Quest has irreversibly damaged VR game development and poisoned any social experiences with an influx of shitty screaming children
I can think of maybe 2 notable titles from before the quest dropped that aren't playable on quest.
Your entire argument seems hinged on emotion.
No games
Same reason xbox one failed
In the end quest is just another console and is competing with same audience as smartphones, consoles and pcs, and with no games there is no point to use it.
When Meta closed down Oculus Studios and most game dev studios they had it was over for VR, indies wont carry a console, it needs first party titles, and a single game, Asgards Wrath 2 in 3 years just dosnt cut it, especially since it sucks ass and is nother open world rpg slog with no story or any originality.
Ironically Apples shitty AR headset has higher chance to become a porn machine and a toy for the rich and actually succeed.
To understand that, you have to look at the success of the Wii. All it had was Wii Sports and it sold like crack.
I remember my girlfriend at the time came home at 2am. I asked her where the frick was she and she said she and her family (who have never touched a gaming console or even a PC) were up playing Wii bowling. My first thought was "Holy SHIT, this thing is gonna be huge".
Now take VR. It's uncomfortable. Sure, my mom plays Red Matter 2, but only because I've spent a TON of money and time trying to get this thing working right. Buying BoboVR, buying a new PC, etc. Most people are not going through all that. And she still finds it uncomfortable for longer than 45min. Then had to buy expensive 3rd part glasses inserts for both of us
VR needs to be FAR easier to set up, comfortable, prescription glasses insert for FREE, and needs way, way, way more games.
A good place to start is investing heavily in old game conversions. Playing HL2 VR has been the highlight of my gaming life.
capclip probably solves the uncomfortable part. if you can wear a baseball cap ypu can wear vr. also no need for a facial interface
Half Life Alyx is the only good game thats released so far
No games on the horizon for VR and everything else is just a tech demo for people with gun autism, until theres multiple AAA games for it, its genuinely just a waste of money
>Half Life Alyx is the only good game thats released so far
one of the best vr games just released recently
>Its a shitty quest game where you just swing your arm around hitting things
Ok, but where are the real games
uevr just came out. literally all the good flat games are now good vr games. so now only way there are no good vr games is if no good games exist in general in all vidya in which case you should probably go do something else
>Half Life Alyx is the only good game thats released so far
Spoken as someone who doesn't play VR games. Why even talk about subjects you don't know about or don't have interest in?
I think Boneworks is the best VR game. Sure Alyx has the better story and graphics but the gameplay of Boneworks is just what I imagined about VR.
What is Boneworks?
Is the Medal of Honor VR game any good?
I'd say no.
The missions are typically broken up into lots of little mini mission chunks, with a few sort of "real" missions interspersed here or there.
There are a lot of loading screens, the game size is bloated as frick, and the graphics aren't so impressive that it warrants all of that.
There's a bit of fun in there here or there, but it's brought down by a lot of crummy elements and overall fairly poor execution in my opinion.
I play Population One on my Quest 2 a few times a week.
Too expensive.
Not impressive enough.
It really is that simple. I love VR, own a headset and play VR games occasionally, but even I can admit that it's kind of underwhelming in it's current state.
It needs to be wireless so you don't constantly feel limited by a cable (We are currently here).
It needs to replace the motion controllers with haptic gloves so you can really interact with the world as if it was real.
It needs to be lighter weight and less obtrusive.
Finally, it needs to be more affordable.
>blade & socery
>realistic gore mod
>female enemy only
yep it's gaming time
It did take off
Because most people prefer actual reality and it is free.
It all just seems janky, I'm sure it'll get there eventually
Record sales for the Quest 2 this year, FYI. Quest 3 is selling well also, but it's twice the price (minimum) so it's only selling half as much.
downloading mechwarrior 5 rn
besides the mod compatability mod and the VR warrior mod what else should I get?
I was thinking about just getting this mod pack off of the steam workshop that has the AI improvements, some hud stuff, and all the 'yet another mech' mods
too uncomfortable. when there are no straps pressing it into your face it might become more popular.
I wish. The truth is it did and now it's corpo as frick. Even VRchat is plastered with ads for big companies.
You do realize that's a photoshopped imagine and it made you miss out on the golden age of VR, right
>You do realize that's a photoshopped imagine and it made you miss out on the golden age of VR, right
I made my own VR headset during the hype of the oculus kickstarter(after the quakecon demo), bought oculus rift in 2014, and then bought a vive in 2016, was one of the first in the world to receive it.
That's great, sweety. Then what? What did you do with that during 2020-2022 when shit was popping?
popping in 2020 and 2022? Alyx came out in 2019.
*damn my time sense is broke. I give up.
>Stereotypical "Alyx only good one," shitter
Aw. He missed out.
on what? got recs?
not him but I really liked RE4 VR(not to be confused with re4 remake vr)
Seemed really good, wish it came to PC.
yeah it's a shame
I like my quest pro. It doesn't even touch my face. Just the forehead
If you're going to be spending any amount of time in a Quest 2 or 3, it's worthwhile to spend the money on a BoboVR strap or something similar. Puts the pressure on your forehead, like the Pro. The Quest 3 version even allows you to remove the facial interface if you want, the way that it is on the Pro, though it's better to leave it on for immersion.
I bought a battery that hangs around my neck. Might get bobo later
Even if you got the non-battery version of the BoboVR strap, it's worth it. It's just way more comfortable and easier to adjust.
ok so i got one, finally fixed the no audio issue by reinstalling steam.
what games do I try on it ?
Outer Wilds
noted.
are there any good normal games that have vr modes to them ? I heard the hitman 3 vr mode sucks
There's a program called Vorpx that allows you to play most normal games with VR headset. Plenty of them can do a mild 3D effect. I've been playing Dying Light 1 and 2 and it's crazy doing the parkour and being on high buildings and such
Vorpx is out. You can do it better and for free with uevr now
Alien Isolation was the best vr horror experiences I've played. Shit was scary.
elite dangerous is really cool in vr
Because its not VR its some shitty fricking googles.
The next step is feed back, once they get that we get the first steps into actual VR
It did. Ganker desperately insists it doesn't in an effort to cope because the combination of poverty, social ineptitude and depression prevents it from having fun with the fun device.
Any type of VR game that makes me couch, or worse... prone, just to do the same in a video game just kills the entire vibe for me. It's entirely awkward to do it. VR is great for feeling like you're there and in the world, even the gimmick of picking up stuff with your hands and shit can be nice, but god beyond that it's like 10 steps backwards. I often find myself playing PCVR games that let you use a keyboard + mouse and the headset is just for the visual.
My favorite VR memory is physically crawling in a vent, and trying to stick my head through the opening below me to take a peek. BONK.
kek, I broke my first quest 2 by slamming my head into a wall. I've since learned to make the boundaries way smaller to avoid those incidents. Nearly broke my TV as well once.
>Nearly broke my TV as well once.
I made a corflute cover for my TV and cover it every time I do roomscale.
Sell the tv and buy more shit for vr. Physical tvs are obsolete, you just need more batteries
selling my house too. all I need is a 3x3 room with futon in the closet.
literally if i didn't get priced out I'd be doing vanlife with a box truck
https://www.meta.com/referrals/link/Broke_Mexican
I like the option bit Hate being forced. It's why I dont actually play crisis brigade 2. But pvp games I can usually be like frick it and not do any physical ducking but I like the option to. Especially prone. Although I've only gone prone in contractors and pop 1. If I have the urge to do it, I want it to actually register when I do.
Beat Saber is incredibly boring and for the fatties who claim it's exercise I implore you to walk out of your basement for 5 minutes.
They just need to make a crime game with a focus on pistols
any good 'chill' VR games?
I've basically lived in VR since quest 3 came out. Love it, but sometimes I want to play but I'm too tired to waggle swords and constantly look around a wienerpit (surprisingly I find flight games the most exhausting vr games outside of straight up exercise games)
Vrchat has like a billion worlds you can visit by yourself
yea i've checked out VRchat a bit like 30-40hrs. none of my irl friends have a headset so it doesn't have big appeal to me yet
they killed the movie worlds though which i was a fan of
I dunno maybe a puzzle game or city builder or something that just isnt' combat all the time
I've tried walkabout minigolf but feel like you need to stand for that one.
I should organize a list of games I've played at some point. Off the top of my head look up green hell VR(PC) and into the radius. I haven't tried EmuVR yet but it looks pretty cool
I love ITR, stoked for the sequel this year
VR has reinvigorated me playing and actually completing games
of picrel I've at least beat the campaign or got all the enjoyment I wanted out of every game on the list except
>episodes 1&2
>moss 2
>myst
>mechwarrior 5
>boneworks (close to end though)
I'll get around to the ones I haven't played soon, just trying to finish asgard's wrath 2, which surprisingly, is pretty good.
before getting the headset I've basically been playing dota2 for the last decade. barely touching other games. haven't played dota in almost 8 weeks
what do you consider as chill?
Sushiben
needs to be cheaper
You should probably have a nice day if you can't afford 150-250 bucks. They lend themat libraries homie. You are the most broke motherfricker on earth
>150-250 buckz
lmao what broke ass vr headset would that get you, the paper thingy you put your phone in?
A quest 2, dumb Black person. You know, the device 90% users have
You can get a quest 1 for really cheap these days.
NO GAMES
It's still not the VR from scifi or anime, so there's no reason to care about it.
Global economy silently took a fat shit before anybody could buy VR headsets.
Any good Visual Novels that work for VR?
Got a quest 3 for new year
Before the thread died anyone can tell me where can you download the Quest Games Optimizer apk?
Don't wanna spend 10usd
You could get 3 big macs with that kind of money
>wants VR to succeed
>pirates the games
bro... not like this...
*excuse my bad reading comprehension...
it's just a program that changes resolution etc?
How do we get zoomers to buy into VR? Could a CoD release with VR support do it in?
