why don't you own a vr headset?it's a whole new gaming experience
>>739304014I do. I just got a PSVR2 for my PC. Waste of time ngl
>>739304085>Waste of time nglHow come?
>>739304014I do, but I want the Frame.don't want to replace the cable on the Index(again)
>>739304014I do. VR is so good it can make a shit game like Starfield actually enjoyable
>>739304014I'm waiting for the Pico Swan. Shit's gonna be kino
Which VR headset is the best for me?I've got a PS5 and 7800 XT
>>739304014It has no game
>>739304014I'm considering it. I'll wait for frame to come out. But I bet it will be overpriced and that's why it got delayed.
>>739304014I own that one in the pic and it had like 2/3 good games before Sony abandoned it completely, fucking dickbags
>>739304693>ayymd cardonly something wired
>>739304693if you already have both of those id just get a psvr2 with the pc adapter
>>739304014I do, but I really only play 1 game on it.I need more games.
>>739304014People like you are insufferable, if that's any indication of VR community then I want no part of it based on principle alone.
>>739307082What the fuck is this post
I have played only VR games for a year. Normal games seem to be boring now. Okay I started to play Pokémon Go month ago because I need some exercise. I get over 10km almost every day now.
>>739307082its a vrg sperg that keeps making them
Pic related, the whole new gaming experience. You're missing out lads.
>>739307462yep
>>739306908name? >inb4 skyrimfor me its thrill of the fight, recently trying the sequel, not sure if i like it more
>>739308842Forefront
>>739304014got one for porn. 2021-2023 was pretty decent for it, but there has been an absolute drought for a couple years. seriously, 0 vr porn is being produced today. porn sites are literally adding "remasters" of old vr porn videos, if that doesn't tell you vr is dead in the water I don't what does
>>739309134sir this is the videogames board
>>739304014VR doesn't appeal to me
>>739309234if you say so
>>739304014I have an oculus. I stopped using it when they forced social media account requirements. Now I'm waiting for the steam frame.
>>739309134That's dire.But it's understandable, only retard would pay for porn. That's why phonefags are the main target audience.
>>739309659it's not about paying for it. with a Quest 2 or 3 you can easily upload whatever videos you torrent.the issue is production. all those porn site conglomerates pay studios with names like "dog fart" to get a steady stream of stuff. Probably mid 2024 I started to realize that there were no new vr torrents showing up. if you go to one of these sites now and look at the previews you can see why, all the videos show posted 2+ years ago. it's like the entire industry jumped ship
>>739310249I meant it mostly how there no enough demand. No demand = no supply.
>>739306659Is this even still an issue with Linux drivers and newer GPUs?
>>739309645Wouldn't that require a social media account to work properly too?
>>739311138What, the Frame?
>>739311295Uh, yes? What else?
>>739311367Steam isn't social media
>>739304014stop spreading lies about me i do own a vr headset
>>739304014>why don't you own a vr headset?I do.Valve Index masterrrace.
>>739311468It totally is, there's absolutely no difference, they are not even shy about it, they have Psychologists studying people, using their to add "new features", each game has their own "forum" which are prominently used btw, so yeah, same thing.
>>739311790*using their research
>>739311138Well, you have to have a steam account in order to buy the steam frame in the first place. The oculus was available on regular online stores.
>>739311790just because it has "social features" doesn't mean it's "social media"
>>739311468https://store.steampowered.com/app/2655340/A_Social_Platform/
>>739311928I can't tell if you are either agreeing or disagreeing with me, eiether way I don't know how that is related to the fact that Steam is social media.
>>739312042What is it then? You have a profile which can be customized, you can add "friends", talk to them, talk to people on forums and blog posts, post pictures, give community "awards".
>>739312048>I can't tell if you are either agreeing or disagreeing with meI'm doing neither, because I'm only replying to your reply to my post with simple information. Your only requirement for the frame to work is a steam account, which you obviously need to even order one.
>>739312149NTA>What is it then?An online video game store.>you can add "friends", talk to them, talk to people on forums and blog posts, post pictures, give community "awards".That doesn't make it into a social media. Online forums often have all of that and they are just that, a forum, not social media.Social media is like Facebook or twitter. It's a place where the focus is on spending your time browsing some algorithmic feed that tries to match random posts to your interests and make you comment/engage with random unstructured shit people output.
>>739312149it's a gaming platformbecause the "social" part is completely optional
>>739312347And to use Steam VR too and its own new drivers, so same thing as the other headset.>>739312512You are not required to do any of that either, create account, set it to private and done and just because the focus is different doesn't mean Steam isn't social media, it having a store doesn't negate that.
>>739312538And who is forcing you to engage in the social part on meta? You can just use it to buy games and play online if you want to, it's the same thing.
>>739312654>because the focus is different doesn't mean Steam isn't social mediaAgreed. Like I said, social media is a place where you spend your time browsing some algorithmic feed that tries to match random posts to your interests and make you comment/engage with random unstructured shit people output
>>739312743I wouldn't know, I never used any of their platforms or productsbut the fact is, META makes its money from the data of its users, while Valve is just selling games.
>>739312654>And to use Steam VR too and its own new drivers, so same thing as the other headset.Not exactly, no. Either way, I don't care about your view and don't want to engage in semantics.
>>739304014>why don't you own a vr headset?ps2 graphics and every lobby is trannies
>>739304014>why don't you own a vr headset?i own like 13-15 of em at this point
>>739304014>>739308010Conduit lookin' MF
>>739312827And you don't need to do any of that to play VR games.>>739312931>Steam doesn't make money from the data of its userslol, the worst part is that you seem so sure about it, you missed that part on purpose but they have people specialized in studying the patterns of their customers to find new stuff to sell.
>>739313008Trannies are in VR chat only. Every quest lobby is kids screaming
>>739312998Yes exactly, yes, you need an account to run it as there is no other way to have the new software it needs to work.
>>739313219>And you don't need to do any of that to play VR games.You are absolutely correct.Not sure what does that have to do with anything, but you are right.
>>739313346Well follow the reply chain
I already doGIVE ME THE FRAME GABEAAAAAAAAAAAA
I tried a Quest 2. I was immediately unimpressed by the low FOV and resolution, which kills of any and all immersion. Furthermore, there are no games for it. I tried ED, but it kept crashing every 5 minutes and I couldn't get the controllers to let me control my player character. When I did get it stable, I tried driving a rover around in the hopes that it would make me feel like an astronaut on some distant moon, but the feeling wasn't there for the aforementioned reasons. I then tried VR loli sex, and it was exciting the first couple of times, but I quickly got bored of that. Now it sits in my cupboard collecting dust. VR is a meme.
>>739313278
>>739304014I literally boughteded quest 3 todaySurprisingly, it became an unexpected hit with my wife
>>739313436I did. I was just discussing whenever Steam is a social media. VR has nothing to do with social media.
>>739313278>you need an account to run itSteamVR can run without steam.>there is no other way to have the new software it needs to workCan't you just use steam cli?
>>739313562>facts are an opinion>>739313592Well it is, and you need an account, whether you use it to engage in the social media part or not that's up to you, same thing as the other device.
>>739313663>can't you just use workaroundsWell same applies to the meta devices, never understood that complaint, seems highly hypocritical
>>739313748>Well it is, and you need an accountYou also need an account to use a bank. That doesn't make bank a social media.
>>739313832Don't meta device require you to sign in to meta account to use it?
>>739313874What kind of comparison is that? Why are you so scared of admitting Steam is social media?
>>739313945Can't you just use oculess?
>>739314056I don't know, I only have valve index.Can you?
>>739314123>I know absolutely nothing about the subject but I'll post my opinion anywayKinda obvious desu
Wait, are META devices tied to META accounts?
>>739304014>we have to make our lightgun accessory look as gay, unthreatening, and non-gunlike as possible

>>739314270it has alyx which is 1 more game than a ps5
>>739314325Ok anon, I'll make it easier for you, use your preferred search engine to search for Oculess
>>739313991>What kind of comparison is that?You brought up the requirement to have an account as an argument to prove that Steam is a social media. This falls short as you realize that most online services require accounts and they aren't really social media.>Why are you so scared of admitting Steam is social media?I see no reason to state that Steam is a social media. Like I've mentioned twice already, unlike typical social media like facebook and twitter, steam lacks algorithmic feed that tries to match random posts to your interests and make you comment/engage with random unstructured shit people output. It's literally just a game store that also has DMs and structured forums for games. No screaming in void for sake of engagement.
>>739314421I did. And I still don't have any meta device.
>>739314458You don't use "Facebook" to play VR games anon, you just need Meta Horizon, I don't know where you got that facebook is required for VR.
>>739314556Uh, good for you?
>>739314571>You don't use "Facebook" to play VR games anonThis is correct. In fact, I don't even play VR games.>I don't know where you got that facebook is required for VR.Have you replied to the right post?
vr sucks
>>739314663Another>I don't even know anything about VRPostThis site...
>>739304014Gives me a headache
>>739304014I use it every day
>>739304014I do.When a VR game is well designed it's peak gaming.When a VR game is basically just you standing still pressing buttons it's abysmal dogshit.Sadly most VR games lean towards the latter now. Unless you're VRChat or simracing pilled, there isn't much to play. Maybe one day we'll leave the software drought, VR's inherently cool. Potential medium.
>>739304126Didn't work well with the Luke Ross mods that worked well on my Quest 2
>>739304014>why don't you own a vr headset?>it's a whole new gaming experienceI tried one at a convention and wasn't impressed. It seemed like a totally pointless gimmick that added nothing to a game. Add to that the fact that it's very expensive and requires a lot of empty space for the motion controls to work, as well as the grand total of zero good games with VR support, and it's just not worth it. Not even close.You can try again after you've met the following targets:>there are enormous 10/10 RPGs with VR support and tits>vr goggles cost $99 at most, weigh nothing and cause no nausea, headaches or other side effects>I can use a regular controller instead of waggle bullshit
>>739304014I have a quest2 and I only use it for porn
>>739307082>I really like this thing I play, let me go see why my fellow anons aren't also partaking in the enjoyment>PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE INSUFFERABLE I AM PRINCIPLEDThe best part about VR is it auto filters people you don't want in your hobby unless they are tranny pedo furfags then nothing can stop them

>>739313438Is this the blueballing thread
>>739319112>pointless gimmick that added nothing to a gameFor me it makes shooters super immersive with manual reloading and aiming. I love how high the skill ceiling is. It's like a better version of paintball.>very expensiveOn the low end it's about $400 which is quite reasonable.>requires a lot of empty spaceIt requires about 3x3 feet of floor space with a bit extra around you so you don't punch anything. You don't need an empty room.>there are enormous 10/10 RPGsWell there's Skyrim VR, but we are lacking in well implemented VR ports. There are lots of VR mods but they tend to be hack jobs that barely function.>vr goggles cost $99 at most, weigh nothingThis is an unreasonable expectation.>cause no nausea, headaches or other side effectsUnsolvable short of culling the lower lifeforms.>I can use a regular controllerWhy would you want to play a VR game with a regular controller?
>>739319112anon one of the first VR RPGS is modded skyrim which is enormous and has all the tits you can mod into it. If you mean third person or turn based RPGS, probably because you mean seated with a controller, you can use UEVR to play expedition 33. You're not likely to get sick from a third person game. I'm not an RPG guy so I don't know what else is out there. There could be PS2 emulation VR plugin for all I know. Or if you mean immersive sim RPG, system shock 2 remake is getting a VR Mod.But 99$ headset worth using is smoking crack so you'll be waiting on that forever.
>>739320081>Why would you want to play a VR game with a regular controller?I want to use a regular controller because that is scientifically the best way to play any videogame. Once you have found the best way you should not replace it with garbage.
>>739320685Usually people mod skyrim to get 6dof controls working but just vanilla skyrim in third person would be fine for you. Playing first person with a controller isn't my thing but some people do it
>>739304014Bought a Quest 1 and got a Quest 3 from work.Love it felt like a console leap when playing Alyx.Only tend to play H3VR, Walkabout Golf, Beat Saber these days. It's just a pain in the ass to move things and deal with whatever updates I've ignored.
>>739320317system shock 1*
>>739321515>Quest 3 from work.What kind of work gives you a VR device? That's so cool
>>739320317Third person VR mods suck ass due to all the involuntary camera work. It's not the same as a third person VR game like Lucky's Tale, Moss, or Astro Bot.I think there's good stuff but let's not overhype mods that barely function and dll injections. It's cool if you recommend it, but don't present it as an idiot proof or comfortable experience.
>>739309134>eporner>wade through hundreds of 1080p videos (functionally useless) uploaded by retards>actresses are mostly mid>western producers film at waist height that fuck up the angles>the JAV is decent but it's mosaic'd>free and easy downloads I gue->hard login wall introduced for anything above 720pFuck this shit, the hoarding coomers were right. I'll never pay or register for porn, so will have to make do off the meagre 1TB collection I've amassed.
>>739325076>He has 1TB of VR pornHow did you even find a single video of good VR porn? It's so boring and the girls are always ugly and the JAV is censored as you said
>>739325440The site I mentioned previously has a metric asston of ripped VR shit, if you feel like registering.I have a quest 2 and 4K is perfect quality. 2K's good enough if you really like the content. Stream the video first on the browser to see if it might interest you. The ripped shit won't have the teledildonics scripts that activate your toys like SLR though.
>>739324852Yeah my bad, I didn't do third person VR that wasn't flight simulator until I was basically immune to sim sickness. Assumed third person would be disassociating and people don't get as sick.
>>739304014every VR game is just>rhythm game >fps game on the wii>racing gamedodging bullets in superhot was fun for a few hours but it doesn't really offer anything new besides giving yourself cataracts from being too close to the fucking screen
My house is too small. Also my ceiling is too low to be able to play Beat Saber.
>>739310249>it's like the entire industry jumped shipWhy keep making shit that isn't profitable? It's not like you can do a non-VR cut, it's just wasted footage.
VR needs more flatscreen ports with seated + gamepad mode for the fatties. No one likes gimmicky controls for guns/swords/bows outside games like Superhot.Modern racing games also need native VR support. The fact that Forza Horizon 6 doesn't is a fucking crime.
>>739326362Yeah, like you still need an iron gut because the fancy camera work jerks your head around. It's sad because it's so close to a decent experience but it requires further modding onto the camera logic which people typically don't do.Best VR mods are still first person or cockpit, imo. I'm hoping the Steam Frame's ABXY layout makes flat mods more natural to play, because reimagining the controls seems to be the biggest layer of jank.
>>739326386You see glimpses of other genres with stuff like STRIDE, but those devs didn't understand how to make a campaign. It's so sad to know Mirror's Edge *can* work in VR but the problem is having the rest of DICE with you (artists, level designers, etc)
>>739304014I do. Used it to play alyx and jerk off to the nikki, savannah and kayley vid.
>>739310249>>739326485Uh what? My porn tracker is firebombed with VR porn. About 75 scenes in the past 20 hours. The thread I browse posted 20 scenes today. Stripchat VR has over 150 models doing VR right now. If anything I don't understand the volume of VR porn for a platform thats always on the ropes.
>>739326756People say this but then Borderlands 2 VR and Fallout 4 VR were hated by the whole scene, and those are of higher quality than most flatscreen ports.There's a market, sure, but evidentally people would rather swing arms like a gorilla or erp rather than stand around pressing buttons motionless.You need to justify why put a headset on over just sinking into your sofa.
>>739313114ConduitVR when, same as Zombi(U)VR too
>>739326756>>739327537>But people hated the laziest cash grabs ports so VR gamers hate flatscreen portsShut up you fucking shill retard, did you even play BL2VR? No you fucking didn't but I did, twice, the game itself fights the VR implementation at every pointThere's no manual reloading, the iron sihts don't match up with the guns, not even the crosshair is accurate and they gutted co-op, no two handed options, the hand models don't even match how you're holding the gunTHEY REMOVED CO-OP FROM BORDERMEME THE ONLY REASON TO PLAY BORDERMEMELANDSFallout4VR is no better but one day mods will fix it, maybe, perhaps
>>739328059Nta but I played it for like 30 minutes, didn't they just played cutscenes on a 2D plane like RE4VR
>>739327528>*shits on keyboard*
>>739328059>so VR gamers hate flatscreen portsThat wasn't my point.People like the top 1% of VR ports like RE4VR, but most flatscreen ports are complete junk. You can up the magnitude but it doesn't change the fact that only like one maybe two studios can be trusted with the task.moar ports isn't the answer, they won't even make a profit. They need to be so good they are basically made-for-vr level. Doable, but few studios can.
>why don't you own a vr headset?because the frame isn't out yet>why didn't you get a vr headset beforebecause volvo never released the Index 2 that I skipped Index for

>>739304014Is there any good quality firearm peripheral for something like a reverb G2? Or am I tormented to hate using shotguns in H3VR
I bought it for giantess porn but there just isn't enough.
>>739328484The answer is to put in less work. Rather than going part way with a shooter no one will be happy with, just slap VR support into a 3rd person platformer or similar games and make some minor camera adjustments and call it a day. A lot of modded games I've played mostly just work by adding in snap turning aside from cut scenes and should be fairly easy for the developer to clean up more. I like motion controls, but I am also more than happy just to play a regular game with VR and it would increase the likelihood that I would buy it if it were officially supported to cut back on jank even a little.
>>739332565I think this would make enthusiasts satisfied (us) but filter anyone that doesn't have super human levels of jank tolerance. It's no replacement for a good VR focused talent pool, sadly.I'm all for it, more software granted. I'd recommend picking up a PSVR1 or PSVR2 where they had the greatest amount of flatscreen ports.
>>739309134Use 3D converters. All porn is VR porn. 2d to 3d converted widescreen aspect ratio is better than most 180 vr porn. Plus if you're 180 vr porn isn't 3d it can upgrade it to 3d>>739331991Shotguns that are not auto are a problem in all vr games. I think some devs started making them suck on purpose so we stop using them. Not gonna happen
>>739312512Someone gonna be mad
I was thinking of picking one up for simracing, but even a used quest 3 is like $300 and with the stunt Valve pulled with the steam controller I have no faith the index will be any better priced.
>>739314458Its almost as if an entire industry is relying on steam not being designated as social media for whatever they were planning
>>739334529nta what jank though what are you guys talking about straight flat to 3d hook engines never game me any trouble I've not experienced anything except for things that do highjack motion controls never work. Most of the time I'm using my headset as a 3d monitor with a roller. UE4VR,Vorpx, reshade depth3d all work without much tinkering.
>>739314458>steam lacks algorithmic feed that tries to match random postsSocial media existed before the algorithm did. In fact that's probably why "traditional" social media is no longer social media

>>739304014I still have a pretty busted but usable Oculus Rift CV1 around here. Had to jury rig the fuck out of it with tape because the head strap is partly broken, and one of the headphones stopped working too, so I removed them and am using regular headphones. Wanna upgrade to the Meta Quest 3, but I can't justify the $300 price for how little I even use VR.

>>739331991I made a ghetto magnetic stock that I think works well for shotguns. Similar to the 3d printed magnetic stocks you can find but with the entire "receiver" being one metal tube that both controllers snap onto. So the front controller slides back and forth with some resistance to reload, and comes off to put the shells in.
>>739337608For shotguns I prefer the nooblaki style for the foregrip. Instead of magnetic its just a piece of plastic to hold the controller against that activates the grip button. Easier to throw nades and reload also.

very confusing what games are on what sets, lack of backwards compatibility, high cost, most things are just 30 min to 1 hour "experiences", anything but an fps or plane/space shooter or racing game doesnt really work well. even then, fps games have severe limits due to control scheme. you can really use two hand weapons

>>739339220Wait for steam frame (like a month its looking like if it doesn't insta sell out) but its got pancake lenses like the quest 3 which seems to be the key to avoid eye strain and motion sickness compared to last gens.Also you will only last like 20 mins before getting sick for that first like week. It should like double everyday until its no longer an issue within a week or 2 for most people
>>739339145Sounds like the furniture is the problem
>>739307447Congratulations, Anon! Keep it up!
>>739339220standing in a small room, but on a mat so I know if i'm stood on the mat i'm not going to be able to punch a wall
>>739339220One of the reasons why I've chosen my current rented aparment is because it has large living room with half of it entirely empty. So I can play proper room scale vr without worrying about hitting things. Unless it's sitting game like Elite or something.It's normal to feel sick after half a hour or something playing game with continuous movement. The nausea gets more tolerable the more you play.
>>739339220I used to play room scale but I'd always end up hugging a wall and it was harder to figure out where I was, now I just use standing.
>vryou have like 2 options, meta shit which is locked to their fucking garbage botnet or a selection of trash with half missing features and "lol i dunno bro" compatibilityso while valves upcoming frame isnt great technically it does have the advantage of being supported by anything on steam out of the box with no bullshit locked hardware but its almost like the apple headset in that its trying to replace a traditional monitor rather than just be a vr toy
