Zikan posted:What are the best occulus store exclusives to pick up? My link cable isn't getting here for at least a week and I don't want to double buy anything that's on steam As long as your PC has some way to connect to the USB-C cable that comes with the Quest, you can install Virtual Desktop and run link over wifi.

Tea for god isn't really working for Quest right now, so I tried out another room-scale game: TraVRsal has 4 different scenarios to go through. A.I. Takeover is the most like an actual game, but they're all worth trying. The only issue I had is that my available area is just big enough to fit - is there a way to define a playsize area with tracking enabled but turn off or minimize the guardian graphics?

Did Steam VR launch OK? The first couple times on a system that hadn't run VR before I had issues with SteamVR and OpenVR prerequisites getting installed and launched properly. Also try launching from Virtual Desktop's own Games tab, not just running the application from Windows.

A new version of Tea for God came out a couple weeks ago: https://void-room.itch.io/tea-for-god Fixed the Quest 2 graphics and simplified some mechanics - I have some idea what's going on now. Plus I see there's also a SteamVR version - does that play any better than the native Quest one?

Warning to anybody playing I Expect You to Die (Steam version) on the Quest - don't be like me and play through half of the game with the wrong control scheme. If you start up in Virtual Desktop, it will detect Vive controllers instead of Touch - I had to start up with Link instead. The controls in this game are finicky enough on the Quest even when it's set up right.

Lozareth posted:Dooooooh. New to VR and have had my Quest 2 for exactly one week and I broke the link cable already. It got wrapped around my chair leg while I had the headset on and couldn't see it and silly me thought I just needed to roll backwards over it. Hopefully the lone USB-C port on my PC is fine. Guess I'll actually buy a game through the Quest store instead of Steam VR. Also the dogs and cats won't come near me anymore because I've hit them so many times while playing Gorn. Otherwise, what a goddamn fantastic experience it's been. Don't forget you have the option of wireless Steam VR through Virtual Desktop - I've barely used my link cable since I got it. Even if the cable is superior in a couple ways, it's great to be unattached. https://arvrtips.com/virtual-desktop-on-oculus-quest/

Dizz posted:Are there any decent puzzlers or sims where you can casually interact with stuff and not ram my fists into fragile furniture? seems like the VR library is still kinda stale with shooters. I Expect You to Die is a good choice for a beginner VR adventure / puzzler. You play it entirely seated, but it still takes full advantage of VR. It goes on sale pretty often, and the intro / credits sequence is super-cool.

Tip posted:The links are specific to the people and you must be friends on Facebook. If you want to pm me your Facebook I'll add you and send you a referral, then after you use it and activate your quest 2 you can unfriend me. There are links all over the oculus subreddit that appear to be multi-use by referrer account, although they're marked US-only. But if nobody here has one, then I guess it wouldn't be a disaster to friend somebody.

Argue posted:My mom was fascinated by my Quest so we're getting her one for Christmas. What are some mom-friendly games that I can preload into it? She tried Supernatural and liked it but getting her a subscription would entail also purchasing her a VPN subscription and then teaching her how to use a VPN. Would be nice to find a rhythm game with music that she can appreciate, but all the rhythm games I can think of are very... electro sounding, or require sideloading (which I have no plans to teach her) to load other songs. Actually, it probably doesn't have to be a rhythm game--I think she'd appreciate any mom-friendly cardio experience. For song variety without modding, you can always try https://moonrider.xyz/ It's certainly not perfect, but it's free. Don't forget that you can search for songs that aren't in the main list.

Last chance to activate a Quest 2 referral before it goes back down from $60 to $30: Steps: Factory reset the device by holding down the power and volume buttons and/or wipe it remotely by unlinking it at https://secure.oculus.com/my/devices/ Accept the referral from clicking on someone’s link: https://www.oculus.com/referrals/link/Baby_Proof Re-activate the device by pairing it to your mobile oculus app that’s signed in with your Facebook account.

My employer provides reimbursement for "fitness apps", sort of a covid-era alternative to gym membership reimbursement. So check your health plans, Supernatural might be more affordable than you think.

The Quest version of Ragnarock is on sale today ($18.99) and they recently added 2 new songs: https://www.oculus.com/experiences/quest/developer-post/4707912772627883/ Are there significant differences between the Quest and Steam versions? I generally try to buy VR stuff on Steam if there is a choice, but this seems like a good pick-up-and-go portable game. After checking some, there don't appear to be any PC mods of the game, and adding custom songs is easy enough on both platforms. It isn't cross-buy either.

Facebook's main interest with VR has to be getting a leg up on a potential social media platform of the future. If someone else implemented the "metaverse" then that would be a threat to their dominant position. That's not to say they won't get value out of extra data collection that falls in their lap from headsets, but it's silly to think that is their primary motivation.
