If you dont mind the facebook requirement the Quest 2 is $300* , and it’ll work as a PC headset for anything with a NVidia 1060 or higher , so its not that expensive now(as well as running its own games/app standalone) .  

Except it’s entirely different this time around. The last big push with VR was at a time when we didn’t have battery tech that could power a handheld anything properly, let alone everything else including simple but accurate sensors that were also small enough.

It’s a coping mechanism for some children/people. It’s alright to not have the thing I don’t have because the thing I have is faaaaar superior to the thing I don’t have. Without it, they feel as if they’re missing out on something or that someone different than them is “better” than them, which are very painful…

By masses I mean the millions of people who wanted VR but couldn’t afford a high end PC and VR headset. It was a great option and opened the door to VR gaming to millions of people. 

Trypophobia is made-up internet meme, like hating the word “moist” or having strong feelings about pineapple on pizza.

Disney effectively retconned the entirety of the original EU out of existence, and now they’re publishing what reads like the kind of weird fanfics one might write in high school?

This is kind of a misconception that I frequently see.

The Index sold 103,000 units just in the 4th quarter of 2019 and PSVR has sold over 5 million, you absolute clown. Just because you don’t own one, doesn’t mean everyone else doesn’t.

That doesn’t say what you think it says.

Starred for the counter point. 

For all games or only some? It took me some time to get my “VR leg” settled at first and I would get headaches in games that didn’t have comfort mode when moving. The worst I had at first was games where you could have sliding movement that just stop dead when you stop pushing buttons. Of course the big plastic smell…

Dreamworks’ Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts is all about a group of (mostly) average kids making their way around a strange post-apocalyptic land. It’s been overrun with mutated, sentient animals who’ve driven most of humanity to live in hiding underground.

So, Gurren Lagann sans Giant Robots powered by the rule of…

Counterpoint: Akira looks nothing like Crayon shin-chan. Both are anime. Anime is not an art style.

Gaming got popular, and a subset of people who built their identity around gaming being non-popular are hostile of anything that gives it wider appeal.

Must suck to be a choosey beggar.

I wonder how far away they can focus the beam and still be effective. Not very useful as a defensive weapon (not terribly effective at night) but would make a great Bond villain weapon. Or another weapon in the arsenal of machines in the event of a robot uprising.

An Oculus Rift S, essentially the second-best VR headset on the market, is cheaper than a PS4 Pro or Xbox One X. No idea where this $1000 myth came from.

My favorites are the toolbags who rattle on about how VR is a fad or a gimmick, even without ever actually trying it. Shit like that is why AAA devs don’t want to “take a chance” on VR.

Let me guess, I have to download their native STEAM CLIENT to play it?

What’s wrong? Lose an eye in an internet slapfight? 🤨
