    It completely baffles me that Meta insist on marketing their headsets as either work flow machines, or workout devices for single women who live in lofty apartments with blinding amounts of sunshine coming from every conceivable angle in the room. How about marketing it as a gaming device? Is that really such a difficult thing to do?

      Q3 owner here too, and this is my first ever VR headset. I looked into all avenues to get into VR mid-2023 and opted to wait for the release of the Q3. I was a bit reluctant with it being Meta but decided it was the best overall option for me looking at a bunch of different factors.
      Competition is always good in any market. Imagine if there was just 1 available game console or 1 company that produced GPUs? (Actually, that's not too far from the truth right now with NVidia taking the lead, especially at the high end.) There will always be the chance that things will begin to stagnate or the sole player will effectively just do what the hell it wants. We have the Pico headset but it's not readily available worldwide. Then there's the issue with the owner, not that I particularly trust Meta that much more. The killer is obviously the lack of software exclusivity.
      I hope that there is another player on the horizon with standalone VR. However, I'd struggle to see how any other company could compete with the Meta behemoth that is burning through billions each year and consistently makes financial losses. They're just swallowing up studios and throwing cash at them and playing the long game, I guess. Who else could realistically do that?

      @Camishere2040 Месяц назад +2

      @edturner9670 I personally believe that on the gpu front, nvidia is only really taking the lead with the 4090. I see everyone and his dog going with amd for everything else below that now tbf. I have a 4090 myself but I don't blame people that go with amd at that lower price point, you can't go wrong in comparison to the rest of nvidias equivalents, really.

      @@Camishere2040 The overall price of a decent PC gaming rig that would be suitable for VR for a good few years was one of the things that put me off going down the PCVR route. Especially when I was looking at the price of decent GPU. When I was learned the price of a 4090 in mid 2023, my jaw hit the floor.
      I had the funds but the thought of spending a few grand and possibly then finding out that VR wasn't for me or worse still, I was maybe prone to VR sickness, put me right off. Plus, I do like the simplicity of the standalone Q3. Having said that, I did spend quite a bit more money on Q3 accessories. A replacement strap with extra battery was right on the top of my list which I'm sure is the same for most folks.

I would love to see a player come into the fray and give meta some competition, but it seems unlikely at this point.

    one thing that i believe is absolutely unforgivable for facebook's vr projects (fuck your "meta" you're still the same) was the consequence of cheapening the quest. the new market made more opportunities to earn money and naturally attracted most major VR companies to make games compatible/exclusive to it, regardless if the devs working on those games wanted to or not. but the reason the quest was so cheap was because of it's magnificently less-than-ideal hardware. no sugarcoating actually, it was just simply utter dogshit
    because now there was basically a way to get free money by simply demaking/downgrading (or even remaking from scratch) the game for quest and THEN putting it on pcvr, as a side-project, we inadvertantly saw SO MANY absolutely AWESOME titles get skullfucked and turn into an ugly, bland, flat mess. no more PBR, no more shinyness, no more TRANSPARENT TEXTURES (quest tech is so shit it can barely handle them), less decals, less details, less particles, lower res textures, less polygons, less shadows less everything.
    compare and contrast the visual style of boneworks and pre-corpofication onward with their modern questified counterparts. vr graphics were going so far and so fast until the elites decided to do their thing. like take bonelab for example: the only way that they BARELY makes up for the atrocious graphical downgrading is by adding volumetric lighting for pcvr, which is still not worth it as the interesting, unique visual style of the first game had to be cut down and butchered because it was too graphically expensive for the quest.
    dont even get me started on how the cheapness introduced hordes of braindead spoiled richkid children into our niche communities that are now nearly unusable because most messages are incomprehensible ROT
    as always, the elites use their midas' touch to turn anything they touch into smoldering ash. everything i loved about VR is gone. there is no more community, it doesnt look good anymore, the people arent fun to play with anymore, my favorite vr content creators became grifters probably under zuck's paycheck, and buying anything that isnt the index is directly monetarily supporting and funding a batshit insane dystopian future

    I think that they are more so going towards trying to implement VR in every day life for not only one demographic, but multiple and in different facets of life. I think a lot of us know that the future that we have imagined is filled with holograms and less screens and more interfaces. I think by promoting headsets to be more useful than just for gaming well create an interest to those who think that VR is mainly for gaming in general, thus propelling it into the mainstream. I think that if we want to continue to see a future in VR and more investment in the community, these moves have to be made. I don’t see it being something that’s going to ruin VR because they’re not the only company. VR/XR/MR is only a decade old. There’s still so much development, so many bright minds who haven’t been discovered and conglomerated into a company and so much more to do then just game and I think that all ideas for the VR headsets can coexist and could all have a focused for a certain amount of time. For the focus to be on gaming for so long, I think that other facets can be explored.

      You have no idea about what capitalism is, kiddo.
      META is not synonymous with capitalism, but it is an example of how a company can leverage the capitalist system to grow and consolidate power. Capitalism, at its core, promotes competition and innovation, but when a company like META eliminates competitors and concentrates its power, it distorts that principle, creating monopolies that go against the free market.
