Bigscreen also has a video player to play local files on Quest, if you're doing that.

On second thought, which purchasing option takes the biggest cut and results in the least amount of money going to Meta?

If you care that much, then don't buy a Quest 2. Either go without or get another unit.

Lol And I would, if it were as easy as you're trying to make it sound. But my budget is not infinite, and it doesn't seem like there are any other units that can do what it can for any remotely comparable price.

Just getting tired of all the "I hate Meta and want them to fail and make no money, but I'm still going to buy their product because it's affordable" poo poo. But their stuff if you want to, have fun with it. Or don't, go without this one particular entertainment novelty and satisfy your conscience. Nobody needs to preface their purchase with a disclaimer about their feelings on Meta, and you not buying one of these isn't going to do anything to effect them at all.

Also, buying a Q2 still loses them money for the next couple of days. So buying one and then nothing from their store is actually ethical.

I can kind of get it. I want my cool toys but I also loving hate that privacy infringing "capital-makes-right" alt-right pipeline hellscape that is Faceboo-, wait sorry, Meta. Like seriously, it loving sucks so god drat much that Meta is the company doing the most with VR. It really really really sucks.

Fortunately they will likely not be the top dog forever. Things will get cheaper to make and a lot of the enthusiasts will drop Meta as soon as it becomes viable.

Just installed the Outer Wilds VR mod and ho-ly-poo poo what a cool came to experience in VR. Starts a bit rough on the starting planet (framerate kinda suck there flat too, so not surprising), but the jet pack flying, space travel, gravity flipping gimmicks, setpieces… SOOO much cooler and impactful in VR.

I might have to give this another try. I played it back when I still had a 1070 and it ran like poo poo but should be able to comfortably run it now.

OgNar posted:I tried the pc version of this and didnt like it. No, not every mob on the map rushes towards you. I beat all dungeons several times, I know how the game works. There is usually just 1 or 2 rooms packed with that amount of enemies. And well, you are supposed to use smarts and tactics to kill the mobs. Although I agree it would be a better game with a difficulty selector, there is none right now. Oh, and you can save now in between floors.

From all the poo poo they could act on, FTC decides to sue because the Supernatural acquisition: https://www.roadtovr.com/meta-supernatural-within-acquisition-price-ftc-scrutiny-report/ There are so many fitness or pseudo fitness apps already, and you lose calories with all of them. /shrug

VR Chat Desktop and VR Chat in VR is a night and day experience, jeeze. I wouldn't even say I did anything particularly exciting or special, I spent most of the night just soaking in the novelty of small VR things. Little sad the oculus battery seemed to last maybe 3 hours before I started getting warnings? But I've got a long cord coming before the weekend. Very much looking forward to trying out some more tailored VR experiences - I've got a friend who's offered to share their steam library too.

Try by end of next week. My take is they should've let the open beta marinate and do this first before pushing EAC live, but at least they're admitting fault and fixing this.

I'm also amused to hear it won't stop half of the problems since they're either avatar-based and EAC sucks poo poo as an anti-cheat.

Also I feel sorry for the ChilloutVR guys, with an, I'm told, 3-man team and an apparently-nice community, now having an emotionally-volatile mob of VRChat users diving into their midst and outnumbering the existing community substantially. And probably a shitton of malicious modders looking for a fresh platform. marumaru posted:oh my, positively surprised by this. Me too actually, but I won't knock it. It sounds like they had a lot of this planned anyway, they just got bumped up the list.

It also has a pretty poor interface, it's nowhere near the clean, friendly usability of VRChat and is in desperate need of an update.

On hindsight, HL Alyx combat felt lackluster. It needed a bit more of movement and something to spice it up. Maybe this will fill that gap on the experience.

I dearly hope they'll get him ousted and get back to active development. at least the cryptobros mostly fled when the value dived and they realised the community hated them In other news, ChilloutVR is having A Time. they've taken on a bunch of the big vrchat mod developers as staff and are doing their damned best to stabilize everything so it's enjoyable for everyone. they apparently had a 10k+ queue just register and verify for game access, that's wild for somehting that had like, 7 people on average prior.
