As this shall be the first of these we've done here I'll start by explaining before I get lazy and simply copy another mod's work.
As some thing are poorly fit to post about in a sub with a focus we've been running a weekly post on some random topics over on Reddit. Since we're here we will be doing the same here.
So this week's topic, Virtual Reality
This week for discussions we are going to talk about VR and what people are doing with it. Playing video games, VR chatting, watching movies, whatever else is done on there.
Personally I've not done anything VR since sometime in the 90's where I played something in a arcade at Cedar Point... so let me ask those who do play with it, is it worth it?
Get a Valve index.
Or, the Occulus Go if you're looking for a price sensitive version
Anything else will just disappoint you, either by being expensive but unimpressive, or so cheap it's insulting.
The Index is the top of the line, the Occulus Go is a good balance between cost and useablility - it also has the added advantage of not needing anything else to work, so you can just put it on a go wherever you are.
I use my Vive daily and am saving towards an Index, as the Vive is just old at this point
