FUCKING DAMN IT
I just want to spend my stimulus money on a comfy VR headset to play comfy games on and connect to my PC for porn games
WMR headsets are also like 400 bucks now because people bought them up for HL:A. The original Rift is in stock for 300 but it sucks.
600 dollars used

the problem with wmr headsets is that they're discontinued, so they're not even making new ones until the next generation comes out.
the HP Reverb is the only one i can find in stock and it's expensive as fuck because of the high-res screen and basically no screen door effect.
Jace Fisher
Just use the government funbux for an index instead.

>oculus quest
don't fall for that, every video i see of it playing PC titles either by USB or wireless it always suffers from gigantic lag spikes.
Xavier Phillips
Yeah of course
HP is the only that hasn't bailed on it and they're aiming at the high end market, total waste when the Index is around. Need more cheap headsets, that markets untapped as fuck. Hit a 200 dollar pricepoint, inside out tracking, better controllers, boom.
Nah I got other shit to spend most of it on anyways. I want the Quest not just for the ability to link to a PC but also for all the standalone stuff, it's got a fuckhuge amount of that. And that means I can bring it somewhere overnight without dragging my PC along for porn vids and some beat saber or whatever.
I tried one 2 months ago and it worked fine. It was with the official cable though so I dunno if that changes anything.
Ryder Garcia
Agreed OP I wanted one too but the price hike is redicoulus.

>Quest
not even real VR. The fuck are you doing
Josiah Price
Your little epiphany isn't anything new, you know.
Cooper Bennett
It's 6dof and has plenty of the same PC titles that run just as well but scaled back graphically.
It's like looking at a gameboy in 1989 and saying "wtf that's not even a real videogame system"
It's portable, you accept the downgrade for convenience and all that. And you can hook it to a PC for PCVR anyways.
Robert Cruz
You missed the first wave. Quest is still great but the current generation of VR is quickly approaching "old news" status and they're working on the new generation that's superior in every way. Multiple companies offering a Quest-like standalone experience, everyone using finger and eyeball tracking, higher resolutions, more comfortable headbands, lighter weight, smaller form-factor, higher FOV, etc.
Save your money and be one of the first people to have the new hotness when it comes out in a year instead of buying the old & busted version normalfags have been using for months now.

Are you an idiot

I got one right before the corona lockdown happened, I use it to play beat saber for exercise since I beat Superhot and can’t get myself to play much else
Carter Lewis
>Implying half that shit will be a thing in a year
Nah man. Nobody is even trying to touch the Quest's market. It's dominating so hard.
It's like saying "why buy a switch? just wait for sony to make a better one"
Look how that turned out, and that's some shit that doesn't even take a fraction of what you're proposing. Just slapping a handheld together, and yet the market domination destroys that.
Even Oculus is maybe a couple years from a Quest revamp.
Ayden Thomas
There's tons of cool sideload games I've been looking forward to trying. Maybe give some of those a shot?
Samuel Allen
Who fucking cares. Just troll them in VR like we did 10 years ago. Just fuck with them, problem solved.
Leo Garcia
It will take a couple years before you can expect really groundbreaking new devices. Even Index is just slightly better in some ways than CV1.
Christopher Parker
Quest is as real a VR HMD as this thing is. Have fun not being able to play any real games or see what anything with graphics looks like, I guess. Final tier cucks, I swear.
Don't forget to charge the battery too. lel
Adam Jackson
At what point will cucks give up on this point?
The Quest has every feature of VR you need for it to be quality. It's selling insanely well even just being in the market for a year. It's got the best support of any headset, no hardware flaws unlike the shoddy index thats got shit QC. Constantly updated with tons of new features and improvements. All in one, so people with an actual life where they travel don't have to lug a PC around.
And let's not forget: Things wireless. Having a wire dangling from your head tangling up around your feet is the ultimate cuckery.
And because it sells so well, it's full of exclusives and gets nearly every big title ported to it. It's the Nintendo Switch of VR and people are seething just as hard about it as people seethe at the Switch. "I SPENT 2000 DOLLARS ON A GAMING RIG AND INDEX AND THIS FUCKER SPENDS 400 AND GETS IT ALL IN ONE??? WHAT THE FUCK THATS BULLSHIT"
Justin Johnson
You're thinking of the Go you stupid bastard.
Adrian Watson
Don't be a faggot spreading misinfo I have quest streamed over virtual desktop it's flawless just don't have burger internet
Xavier Stewart
Guy probably saw one youtube video
And I bet that youtube video was someone trying it out when the feature was still in beta, using a shit cable, on a shit USB port
You can't just plug the fuckin thing in, you gotta make sure you either have a quality USB 3.1 port and a good cable, or a PCIE/MOBO thunderbolt USB C and a good cable.
And to retard proof it they added a cable test to the Link software. And it improved a ton in 2 months when it left beta, nearly flawless, hell you can even tweak the visuals to be even better if you have a good GPU.

>totally close facebook store and system for plebs
>real VR
no. Quest is to PC as Tiger Handhelds are to a PS Vita.
Gavin Edwards
VR is way way more immersive when it’s wireless. I can’t even use the PC plug in feature of the Quest because I can’t stand the tether
Michael Walker
Are you retarded? Try one out, it plays fine.
>Close facebook store and system for plebs
Thing has the most bustling VR community that makes free games and apps for it you can sideload. Are you actually retarded? Or are you just seething you can't afford one and coping like this?
Anthony Barnes
>battery powered vending machine tier vr
what were they thinking?
Jason Anderson

Fucks wrong with you, you retarded or somethin boy?
Nicholas James
I dont know how anyone looks at the specs of the quest vs anything else and goes "yeah they're the same thing. the quest is even better in some cases" even with the link cable you get shittier graphics.
Ryan Campbell
If you play it it plays the same. It's not like some google cardboard tier shit, it looks good just without a lot of lighting effects and lower poly models and all that.
It would be a little tough to fit a gaming laptop level of specs into a headset, not make it weigh 5 pounds or some shit, and have the price still be 400 with 6dof controllers
Samuel Campbell
I'm definitely not saying it's on the level of mobile phones in cardboard headsets. I'm sure it's an acceptable level of graphics for a first time VR buyer but I've owned a vive already and the graphics on it were kind of shit.
Eli Hall
I'd buy an index but waiting two months or getting scalped isn't in my interest. and the rift s' limited IPD prevents me from buying it. Is the reverb any good? I haven't looked into it beyond one review that complained about the tracking. If the tracking sucks cocks I'm out.
