your opinions on VR are pretty misplaced but you’re ultimately right that there are a number of things that will make it tough to live in a VR headset

Lambert posted:Except people want to surf the net while watching a movie. Who gives their full attention to the latest Hollywood dross. There's a reason cinema attendance has been falling for a long time now. weirdly i found that after getting a headset that i reverted back to actually watching just a movie; the simulated 'empty theater' setting made it way easier to concentrate and enjoy it, which wasn't exactly something i was expecting but yeah, i definitely spend a fair bit of off-time in vr, though i have yet to really invest any time in fallout 4 or skyrim vr (it feels like not everything supports the knuckle controllers seamlessly yet, but i'm hoping it's just a matter of time before valve makes the translation feel natural)

space truckin in VR in ED is awesome and the most fun you can have sitting down unloading biowaste also to keep it AMD related my first VR rig was a FX-8350 and a 1050ti and it barely ran VR but I made it work in elite dangerous with my Walmart VR headset

it was elite dangerous that created my fear, some dude said he did an 8 hour trip in game in vr and was enthralled the whole time and that’s what made me fear generations of people spending their whole spare life in vr

BS even supports playback of 3D movie files, and watching them on your vr hat you don't get any dimming or flickering you might get with watching it with the usual shutter shades on your tv / at the cinema. I will do a BS private room if anyone feels like trying out the social aspect, I think I have enough upstream at home for two or three visitors.

The fact I can just throw the PLEX app on my desktop and have it appear useable in VR to pick out and watch stuff from my media server is really fun.

echinopsis posted:holy poo poo I didn't know BigScreen was available on Quest, that massively opens up the number of folks who can access it (though I'm not sure how making a custom room would work for a standalone headset) this guy goes over the basics of the new 'live cinema' aspect, and there's a few in-headset shots of what the experience is like. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fA2cW2qgGgs I never noticed the dynamic lighting of the vr auditoriums from the colours on the movie screen before, that's a cool detail.
