I just see the whole Quest thing as: You paid for a thing. No matter how old it is, you still have it, it still works, and you should be able to use it. Maybe it doesn't connect to the storefront and can only be used as a PCVR set, but it should still *work*. I can understand shutting off services for an out of date product, but the device should still, at the very least, work as it did with its final major patch.

Performance wise makes sense, and so does making more apps for Meta users, of course steam VR will be available no doubt. I am very excited and thrilled (no pun indented) for the future of Meta.

I bought my Quest 1 in July as a collective birthday present from my family members, after 1-2 months of having it they suddenly discontinued selling. I don't have spare money to get the upgrade so I've been stuck with a dying headset, which is so frustrating since I've forked a lot of money into making this little guy a comfortable and fun experience.

Exactly, that's the scam. All of the hype of the Quest platform as Cheap VR ignores the small fortune people spend trying to make it a tolerably comfortable experience if they don't just leave it in the box in a closet instead. The Quest platform has been a downgrade in value from the Original Rift for PCVR, and almost no one who becomes an enthusiast will remain content with stand alone VR.

The vast majority of Quest owners didn't learn of the Quest until early 2020 (Covid Lockdowns), and it was difficult to attain from 02/2020 - 06/2020. So for most users, Quest 1 is only 2.5 years old.

I can't believe the original Quest is only 4 years old, it feels like it's been around for so much longer, it's a shame Meta likely won't open it up in any way, there could be tons of life left in them, feels like a waste to just make them essentially useless.
Loved the vid! What do you think about cloud streaming in vr, such as a stadia vr headset? Could slimmer headsets use this to their advantage?
QOTW maybe?! How far off do you think we are to having gloves and electrodes suits for our VR set ups?
Quest 1 will always have a place in my heart. It was the headset that introduced me to VR and it was my first vr headset. The VR industry right now would be so much different if the quest was not made. Sure VR had a very small but dedicated community before the quest, but the quest made VR more wide stream. RIP quest 1.

I still have have original Quest and I've always looked forward to the idea of upgrading to the Quest 2 and passing my old headset to a friend so we could play together. The fact that that's no longer an option almost makes me not want to buy the Quest 2 at all. If I've already missed half of its lifespan and they're just going to brick the last gen a couple years after a new one comes out, what is even the point of getting a Quest 2. What's preventing them from discontinuing service the moment the Quest 3 drops. Buying a VR headset is not a an inexpensive investment and I hate the idea of it not being fully usable in a year or two.
HEYO thanks for putting me in the meme break. Much love bro
Hey man! I'd just like to say, even though I have an old HTC Vive I actually bought an Oculus Go a long time ago to have something light and portable way back then, now that I'm beaming across countries I've actually found the need for it again and that snippet about the Go being unlocked was huge, thanks for that!
Always love the videos man, keep up the good work❤
As a Quest 1 user, it's disappointing to see that they're dropping social features and I don't really get the decision frankly. I get stopping updates, that always happens, but I don't see why they'd drop social features specifically. I use mine with Virtual Desktop as a wireless PCVR headset and it's still going strong, so I'll continue doing that for the foreseeable future. And I'm honestly not sure when I'll upgrade, I'm really just waiting for a headset that does everything my Quest can, but is significantly more compact and comfortable. Even after doing upgrades like the Vive strap and VRCover interface, comfort is still my biggest issue with my Quest.
This one was quite interesting! :D im always very thrilled when theres a new video in this channel lol

As a quest 1 user, I don't fully expect full support, but do not hinder our ability to exist, yeah the natural evolution leads to pcvr, a lot of virtual desktop vrchat over the last month, but I really don't want them to treat this as if it's the 3ds of the modern era, (the version getting abandoned by Nintendo) It's just hard knowing such an important piece of vr history, to me and many others might just be nothing more than a mention in the empire of vr meta is building. Forgetting who helped them build it.

As a VR enthusiast who is looking to upgrade from a Vive Pro 2, do you think buying the Varjo Aero now is worth it or waiting for some of the new headsets that are slated to be released this year? Pimax has always excited me but i'm cautious to believe anything they say before seeing a review copy of the 12k.

To explain why the PSVR2 probably won't work on PC, it's mainly because the tracking data will be in a proprietary formate meant only for the PS5 The thing about the PSVR1 is all the tracking was done externally with lights on the headset and controllers, so it was easy to reverse engineer that, honestly "reverse engineer" is a bit of a stretch, it was more so just tracking the lights But the PSVR2 uses inside out tracking with infrared light, so we could at best externally tracking the controllers, but the headset tracks itself, so you'd need to be able to get and use that tracking data And this all assumes Sony doesn't try and actively stop the use of the headset on PC, they could easily make the headset check for a PS5 and shut itself down if it doesn't detect one
Thanks for another great weekly summary! QOTW: what specs and price should the upcoming Apple’s VR headset have for you to consider it “good” or at least “fair?”
Really hope they improve the vr systems already in place since in it’s current form playing in vr mode is incredibly limiting
I still rocking my quest 1
I have a rift s but not sure if it still applies to any other oculus vr products, even tho you did mention the original rift but you gotta remember theres also a rift s. I just dont like the whole signing up for meta by force so we could use our vr
You make great videos, but could you please start adding labelled time blocks to your videos? So we can skip to sections of the video on topics we are interested in? Thanks. :)
as a very bad roblox developer, roblox coming to quest sounds cool
Oculus Quest Support change was invitiable, but atleast do it as on the go and unlock the os. BUt i guess meta likes to produce e-waste
I'm one of those Quest 1 users that got it way back in 2019 and that is using it until this day. Honestly I'm not too surprised they're cutting it off, though I would have expected it to continue working in a slimmed-down version until games stop supporting it altogether. 4 years of support is okay-ish considering the Quest 2 dropped in 2020 and brought in a lot of upgrades. For me, at least, it's fine, since I tend to switch tech by skipping at least a single generation of it - I'm probably going to get a Quest 3 for Christmas 2023 to replace my Quest 1. I'm a bit sad if I can't hand it off to someone else to enjoy or at least try out VR, as I think it's a great headset despite its limitations. Also, don't entirely agree that it's not good enough as a standalone headset in current times - I still use it, though mostly for VR fitness :D
Was looking at the meganex but the HTC vive xr elite seems to be the only alternative to a small new generation form factor from any major company.
quest 1 user here. it’s getting dark.
It’ll be interesting to see how Rec Room will be able to handle Roblox should it officially come to quest. If enough worlds support a VR mode it could destroy rec room.

Your intro has nothing to do with VR and I loooove it each time it comes up 😄
Thank you for the news :)
I'm kind of confused why the Quest 1 would become unusable for PCVR as you mentioned at 5:39. Wouldn't that just continue to work irregardless of updates? Also I'm rather glad they're tearing out all those "social features" if I'm honest. Is there any word on how long the store for the Quest 1 will continue to be available? Edit: wrong timestamp.

My bet would be that the Quest 1 itself would be capable of using PCVR, but the Oculus desktop app will likely stop supporting it. If I'm right, you could still use it as long as you make sure your Oculus app can never update. And even then, the internet is full of people who hate facebook so they may take it into their own hands anyway.

@@cenciende9401 he says the following "I do actually know quite a few people that love the original Quest not as a standalone headset [...] but as an OLED PCVR link headset. And to those people, yeah it actually does kind of suck that a headset that could be used indefinitely [...] is pretty much just getting the chopping block after this year". While he does not say it outright, it is heavily implied with this choice of words. Otherwise, why talk about it getting the chopping block in the context of PCVR?

Meta still requires indie devs to support the Quest 1 in order to get on app lab. Hopefully this discontinued support changes that policy cause it's holding back lots of devs.

Army Augmented Reality would work best with coordination with other signal intelligence support infrastructure. If information is exchanged much faster than a radio transmission without being intercepted by opposition, situational awareness changes in ways unheard of since the advent of radios in the military. Like the radio and telegram before it, it will definitely have their own weaknesses.
1:44 Roblox started as a PC exclusive and it took many many many years for them to experiment with mobile support by releasing an app for a single game in Roblox as a test before slowly starting to support mobile
I wish Mojo would refocus (hehe) away from AR and more on vision correction and augmentation. Auto-focus lenses for near and far. Night vision for improved night driving. IR vision to see new things, Like Star Trek's Geordi La Forge in the newer movies (where he's just wearing contacts). I think there's a much larger market for corrective lenses.
It does suck that the quest is going. It’s my go to wireless option when I don’t feel like dragging around my vive pro. Hopefully someone can release an open OS that let’s us use it for PC still
i think that the future from vr gadgets will be little computers and the glasses just receive and send the information, reducing the weight and size of it.
The poor support Meta provides for their VR products is why I switched to Steam and decoupled from their ecosystem. I'm not buying a new headset every couple of years since they could just walk away from VR at any time. They don't seem to care about their customers beyond what they can get out of them right now.

That's true but basically only applies to Standalone. The Rift CV1 - Meta's oldest headset - still works great. They can only justify abandoning Quest as - due to the non-user-replaceable battery - they will all be e-waste in a few years if they are not already.

Dang, stuff like this is why I want to find a way to maybe do half home schooling half regular schooling for my kids, the traditional schooling system is useless but the social aspects are important. Though there are some new type schools coming about which are completely different, where there are no grades based on age, kids progress in each individual subject based on their natural ability regardless of age and not being held back by the lowest common denominator or rote standardised testing which mostly tests memorization not understanding. If only there were schools around like that for me growing up! Felt like I wasted at least 2-3 years stuck in the system for no reason.
