Hadlock posted:Gameboy was $99 at launch So the Cosmos being 10 percent less than the Index compares how? The Wonderswan was 60 percent less than the Gameboy Color at the time. I have an OG Vive and I enjoy it but unfortunately it seems like HTC has been completely outclassed in this market by Facebook and Valve. I don't see the Cosmos selling well at all.

4000 Dollar Suit posted:It's weird cuz I've seen a lot of "Boneworks made me nauseous and Alyx didn't" but it's completely the opposite for me. I think it's because alyx is sorta realistic and outside and boneworks is, at least where I'm at, just like simple geometry inside a bunch of labs and stuff like portal. I didn't get nauseous playing either but I didn't really like Boneworks because climbing ledges is impossible and I got stuck on a part that required it. Wish there was a way to unlock everything without playing through the story.

Man, that poo poo is foul as gently caress and I haven't missed it a bit! Now to ignore it again for (hopefully) the rest of my life. Someone already said EchoVR but also check out Jet Island, it's an awesome platformer with a hoverboard and Iron Man thrusters and Spider-Man like grappling hooks. It's also got giant bosses you climb and fight Shadow of the Colossus style. https://youtu.be/uztlUt2MVoQ

Goodguy3 posted:The best way to climb stuff in Boneworks, if I remember right, is to push down so you pull yourself up, then tilt the stick down so you "crouch", then physically lean forward a little so your guy's legs end up on top of what you're trying to climb. This works on ladders, too. Impossible to perform that with vive wands. I'll try to play through it again after I buy an index probably next year.

Yeah the people to compete with Facebook would've been Google and they gave up incredibly quickly. Although I'm pretty sure Valve has enough money to do whatever they want.

Still getting use to the knuckles controllers, holding a shield in the left hand while moving in Blade And Sorcery is a little awkward right now. The clarity of the picture is leaps and bounds an improvement over the Vive and it's so much more comfortable.

Sometimes when I'm playing my Index it'll get like twice as dark and there's a rainbow effect on the bottom half of the image, it goes away if I restart Steam VR. Running it on a 1080ti, is this a GPU issue or do I need to replace my HMD or cable? I've only had it for two weeks.

Turin Turambar posted:I think the public reaction will be potentially very negative, if the ads are overt/intrusive. VR games aren't like mobile games that are played casually almost like time wasters, VR games instead are things that people go and isolate themselves from their surroundings to play them, and their key factors is the immersion. So ads floating in front of your face or being in places where they don't make sense, breaking immersion, will be super unpopular. They are going to constantly flash ads at people and they won't care about the pushback

Google VR would most definitely flash ads at people, too. Doesn't Valve still have 2 more big VR games in production? All they need to do is add inside out capability to SteamVR, expand Big Picture mode to be standalone and other partners could make the hardware. They are more than halfway to what the quest is already.

My guess is either a 1070 or 2070 will be the minimum specs for newer headsets so yeah get the best gpu you can afford. 3090s are terrible value though, a 2080 or 3080 will probably be fine

Grashnak posted:I know that Dirt Rally 2 at least doesn't use VR controllers are all. A lot of driving/flying sim games (stuff like dirt rally, elite dangerous, star wars squadrons etc.) have VR support but it's basically just a different way of viewing the game, the controls and controllers that you can use are identical to the flatscreen version of the game. This is generally because those games are expecting you to be using a steering wheel or joystick type controller and doing all the inputs on them, the implementation of using a VR controller as a virtual joystick usually tends to be pretty bad imo (looking at you NMS). Yeah i dunno what they were thinking with NMS, feels very weird to stand in place and jiggle around an imaginary joystick. On foot planet exploration with vr controllers is a blast though.
