Yeah Microsoft's stance on VR is just insane... the Flight Sim community had to fight to get them to include VR in their last MSFS installment. They are SO blind. One of the features of the game is "bush trips" where you navigate a path using word directions. I ONLY play that mode in VR, because it's immersive and it's all super doable for me.

Even with VR included you need to be pretty savvy to get it to run well. I'm on a 4070 and I have to do mad science to get solid FPS in any kind of populated areas while my GPU sits with a big chunk unused. May be time to upgrade the 5600X just to buy myself a bit more CPU headroom honestly.

Makes sense. The Quest 3 isn't going to benefit from COVID sales, and along with it's price-tag, it's looking at a much smaller adoption rate. Developers can't afford to release Quest 3 exclusive titles (unless Meta pays for the development).
The Tea for God gameplay makes me feel so nostalgic for the early VR era.

Absolutely love "Tea for God" the game you used for b-roll. Was one of the first few VR games I ever played and it's still up there as one of the more unique uses of irl locomotion in a VR game. I feel worn out playing that in a way I don't get with the likes of Boneworks or B&S.

the first ones in a genre or even a type of gaming (flatscreen vs vr), are the lifechanging ones.
I wonder how much more life the batteries have on some of the first release units of the Quest 2. Virtual desktop has had the option to be able to overclock the CPU for quite a while now, and boy does it chew through the battery.
5:13 as someone with 2 minor lazy eyes, the vr headset is very similar to the way glasses sit on ur face to train ur eyes not to drift off. I can say i can focus on objects faster without double vision just few months in the headset.
I am planning to get into standalone VR gaming, should I get the Quest 2 and get quality of experience addons (Which?) or save a bit extra and wait for Quest 3.
Along with Virtual Desktop wireless update and this update, makes a big boost in performance for PCVR users.
What are your thoughts on pass through app’s possibly becoming more mainstream for farming and productivity onexe the quest 3 releases (QOTW)
Hey! my Quest 2 has been feeling its years for the past months. Should I look into PCVR if I got a PC or should I just upgrade to another standalone headset?

I just bought an index kit since i can re-use the controllers/base stations, and the HMD can tide me over until the Bigscreen beyond comes out.

Is there any way to set it up to where you answer a message/call from messanger in game?

I want to mention something about your xbox comment (11:21), it makes sense as the problem doesn't stand on the units sold, but on the players who actually buy games there. out of all the people who bought the quest 2, they mostly bought a maximum of 10 games on the platform, as on xbox, a console player will usually buy more. idk if it makes sense but here is not about the peripheral itself but more about what happens after in MY opinion tho, I think VR and consoles should mix together in a different way. the great part about the quest 2 is that you can go full PCVR and basically, when you will have a better hardware on your pc, the headset will 'evolve together with it', as for consoles, if you bought the PSVR for ps4, you could use it only for that console and the end. it dies there. what I think is that there mush be a way to make those headsets more compatible with their console ecosystem or sell them as totally separate stand alone consoles fully optimized for VR and that's it

Honestly, if i were you, i would stick with the G2 until the beyond comes out, and replace it with that.

Kinda agree with Xbox & understand why they haven’t supported VR. That being said I think if they did want to incorporate it they should do a collaboration with meta using the latest quest 3.

Quest 2 + Quest Pro sales = Close to 20 million sold From those, active devices reaching 1.5 million, Meta Claims a user base of 6.37 million active users in October 2022. PSVR numbers are a fraction of those, since the prohibitive pricing. At this moment (meaning right now), VR in general has about 6k active users in the US across many games, being the top dogs: 1- Beatsaber 2- Blade&Sorcery 3- Gorilla Tag 4- Pavlov 5- HL: Alyx Meanwhile, right now in the US Xbox console has 1.2 million active users, playing: 1- Fortnite 2- COD 3- GTA 4- Minecraft Without any games that can draw attention to VR, it will always have low numbers, therefore Xbox and Microsoft evaluated and it`s not very effective to develop APKs, Hardware, and games for a platform that is barely 0.5% of their current active user base, Quest 2 can sell millions, the issue is that not a lot of people are playing constantly, and barely any AAA releases for VR, still entirely dominated by Indie devs, it`s too much of an investment seeing that Xbox already offers Gamepass. It does have potential, but VR always seems to run out of fuel somewhere, somehow, I said it before and I`ll continue saying it, we need more AA and AAA VR games to take-off and establish the platform.
