Until I have a port in my brain to wire me for direct input, everything is a loving gimmick. 3D does nothing for me. 3D movies suck dicks. Everything sucks dicks, just stop.

all you need is kb+m and a 360 controller and you're set for All Games even emulator ones maybe steam controller will even drop that barrier and work on everything but i doubt it

the future success or failure of mainstream adoption of the rift is purely based on how much money facebook chooses to throw at it.

i'm not sure that will matter since pretty much every virtual reality/you're the controller! thing has failed no matter how much cash was thrown at it.

it may not Completely Revolutionize how we do anything (tho it seems a safe bet that it'll at least nurture the market for atmosphere-focused games to some degree) but peeps have been fondly imagining convincing VR for so long before it ever became a real possibility that it coming out and everyone just going "eh, whatever" seems kind of like a comically cynical prediction to me. itll definitely find an audience and succeed at least modestly note: talking here about the premise, not the rift in particular. sony's or valve's products could easily overtake occulus

Probably because this isn't the first time people talked about VR like it was the wave of the future. And it's turned out to be a massive failure every time because shockingly most people don't want to flail around a room in a big dumb headset to play games.

really? NO ONE wants to do that? im sure lots of dorks do is that really the reason previous attempts at this have failed, always thought that had more to do with the older poo poo barely fuckin working whereas by all accounts this new method is pretty convincing edit: you did not actually say no one, my bad. still, i think it unwise to underestimate the number of dorks in the world Space Hamlet fucked around with this message at 01:45 on Jul 28, 2014 |

I didn't say NO ONE I just have serious doubts about something like this taking off on a widespread scale, which will probably hamper any kind of development for it. Same thing that happened with the motion control poo poo that was supposed to revolutionize gaming.

I think that motion control was an unpromising idea built on some cool tech (which hasn't died, exactly, you see it applied here and there outside of games) whose fate was really sealed once it was pushed out on a huge scale before anyone could figure out how to make decent content for it. Conversely, VR can be applied to lots of existing content (flight sims, driving sims, walking sims) without the need for lots of new design work on the content side of things. The appeal to that audience is pretty natural, not unlike the TrackIR which is pretty niche but not unsuccesful. Any talk of "revolutionizing" anything is almost always gonna prove hyperbolic, but I don't think we have to throw the baby out with the bathwater on that. There's clearly a lot of interest - just because PDAs didn't really take off doesn't mean smartphones were a bad idea

I'm skeptical and cynical I guess because I just don't see it taking off (beyond the sims you mentioned and probably porn).

it isn't going to work for porn at all aside from a few specialised positions or using a mirror or something you generally only see a portion of your partner's head while having sex with them. sometimes you don't see any of your partner at all. best case scenario you see some 3d tits jiggling. the problem is, sex is not primarily visual. a porn cameraman has a much better view of the action and there are all kinds of poo poo they worked out to make sex more visible, and pretty much all of it is unbearable to actually do on camera. it also isn't going to work for games, at all. what countless research hours have shown is, if character movement isn't coupled with physical confirmation from the inner ear and/or body, nausea inevitably results after 45 minutes, no matter the subject. there's a variance, but that's your lot. and no-one wants to move around to play or design games, they exhausted that market and space with the wii. (and the xbone is totally dominating the games that make you vomit space) it will work for specific large scale arcade experiences where its ok to move around looking like an idiot, like augmented reality laser tag, but otherwise the best case scenario is a virtual tv, where you have 1:1 motion tracking for your avatar's head sitting in a virtual living room with a big tv in, on which you can watch movies and play 2D video games and not have to move around at all. that is good for cramped places like those coffin motels or planes, but otherwise a big tv is more practical and allows more than one person to join in and socialise.

I really don't know how people think it will ever become popular among the masses. People can't even be interested in 3D enough to use it in their homes, and I loving love 3D, and play all games I possibly can in 3D. Even stuff that don't make much sense like street fighter.

i got an oculus rift for free because i met a dude who works there and i have access to at least 8 more of them. i've made 2 virtual reality things and i still think oculus rifts as they are are lovely gimmicks. ever y time someone asks to try the drat thing i try my best to show them something traumatizing with it. use it for combat simulators or something, dont give it to nerds. come on, actual virtual reality hotline miami or something. dont sit on your rear end with a controller and have dorky rear end goggles on your face. look like a dork with the treadmill poo poo and kill the virtual mans. get psyched
