The State of VR in 2024 

Yeah, I'm completely fine with my Quest 2 that I bought for 200$. I don't really need better headset when I play only Beat Saber most of the time. Even games like Alyx run completely fine with PCVR and cable for few bucks.

Fair, for the regular user that wanted to experience VR a Quest 2/3 will get the job done for only a couple hundred bucks without the high requirements I talk about in this clip.

how to induce a passionate desire for VR in the uninformed masses? Ferrari.

Until headsets come with the snapdragon xr3, I'm sticking with the quest 3 for simplicity. Pair it with a wifi 6e router and a 10gbe connected pc, it's the best experience I've had. I was quite surprised as i was trying to avoid fsckbook like the plague... Of course, having worked for 20 years in vr, I've seen how much of a pain in the neck vr headsets can be ( literally. The first one I had used crt's and prisms and weighed a ton)

@@TitusTechTalk bro I have a 4090 13900k w/crystal & oculus 3. You're fine with Oculus 3 you won't notice much of a difference both options are great. Also, you're gonna wanna use UEVR as well as VorpX. Some of the experiences are mindblowing, things you just have to try yourself to understand why it's worth it.

Great tracking without the need for lighthouse or external devices.

Whaddaya mean it "can't do it wireless"?

@@BoltRM Maybe I am running behind but I understood that wireless VR still was a mess, not enough datatransfer per second to make it run as well as you would like. Personally I don't use any WiFi, I prefer wired, but obviously for VR wireless is handy.

@@peterjansen4826 Wireless is quite good for the Q3, especially with Desktop Vr app, but currently wired is a little better not having any compression.

Tactical shooters are the and simulators are the best games I've seen in VR.

Completely out of touch

@@BoltRM so are you saying that there are good story driven games available for VR?

It's not VR's time. AR needs to get better first in order for VR to become better

I have played a handful of VR games over the years. Most of them are not among the most popular or most hyped, such as Half Life Alyx. But there is a few gems I have played that I wish I had tried sooner, for to me, they show what VR gaming can be, if done right. And not all have to be first person games to be real good. The game I am thinking of is Moss. In it, you get to meet a cute little mouse named Quill. And get to take part in controlling her, and her story. Story is fairly basic. Is been done to death. Little hero goes on an adventurer, saves all from a massive evil threat, in a final boss fight. Same old, same old. What is good about the game, is not so much the story, but the presentation. It's visually great. Far better then most VR games. And the animation makes the mouse come to life right in front of you. Is like watching a mini move from inside of it, wile you get to control much of the action. I played it on Steam, with my HP Reverb G2, and also seen how it looks on the Quest 3. Looks great on PC. Still looks good on the Quest 3. I agree, many games are lacking that certain something to make VR truly stand out. But I feel game like Moss, show some promise for the tech. If more do more with it, than make what looks more like demo games. - Tried one for the Quest 3 called Jupiter & Mars. Was real excited to see it, at first, thinking it might be like Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future on the Dreamcast, but in VR. Sadly, the game looked like it was made for 6 year old little kids, and made to be played on the N64. It looked bad, and the game play was worst, and very repetitive. It felt more like playing an idea made into a low quality concept demo then a full game you would expect to see on the Quest 3. Trash at best. Good thing I tried the free demo, and didn't pay for the full game. The real sad thing is, too many VR game are too much like Jupiter & Mars. With only a few real good ones, that tend to cost a lot.
