Liam Hernandez
Instead of lowering the barrier of entry, they increased it and btw to the VR defense force, this is only for the headset. The other shit costs extra.
Christian Clark
NOOOOOOO VR IS THE FUTURE FALL FOR MY SCAM, YOU HAVE TO BUY SIX NOW!!!! AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

And if you don't have a good PC, it will cost a lot more.
Jaxon Cook
If Vive Pro came with the base stations and controllers I'd buy but since it doesn't Oculus is the much better value
HTC shot themselves in the foot
Christian Parker
They are trying to attract Apple slaves. Remember, Job's made his shitty hardware sale more by incrasing its price until peasants believed it was a good product. And to these days it still works.
Gavin Thompson
Shit, nevermind. I thought the trucking wireless thing was built-in and the adapter is for something else.
Aiden Torres
I'll buy it when the technology has developed enough to not have shitty cables or be literally nervegear

You can already get wireless adapters

There's already lower priced alternatives for VR. WMR go for around 200 dollars and it's pretty good value. It's no Vive but you aren't paying for a Vive.
Blake Garcia
Remember when Resident Evil 7 was supposed to get VR support for PC?
Thomas James
Getting cheap VR is like getting cheap sushi, it will make you sick.
Mason Morgan
vr will be good and affordable in 2025. i'm still thankful that there are drones nowadays who buy this overpriced under-teched shit that's still getting figured out.
Samuel Mitchell
This is for developers, not for poor gaymers
Josiah Hernandez
No it is not.

I could buy 2 Oculus for that money and with fucking sensors and controllers.
HTC is retarded.

VR is already dead.

Damn I can actually afford the Vive now.
But now I'm wondering if I can afford the Vive, why not save a few more hundred and get the Vive Pro?
What should I buy, Sup Forums? Do you guys think the Vive Pro is worth it?
Nolan Murphy
Yes retard

Got my VR experience and didn't fall for the meme.
Be smart and don't buy useless shit.
James Cox
It's for devs and enterprise. It's not a new vive for consumers, which is why it's called vive pro and not vive 2
Read press release you homo
Nolan Collins
>literally isnt a single VR game that isnt a glorified tech demo, walking simulator or 5 minute gimmick exhibition
Adam Lewis
>But now I'm wondering if I can afford the Vive, why not save a few more hundred and get the Vive Pro?
It's $800 plus $530 for the two controllers and the two base stations.
Cameron Davis
youtube.com
vr is pretty gud with strategy games like this.
Thomas Thompson
This.
VR? More like VRchat machines.
Is there seriously anything worth playing or doing on VR besides VRchat yet? Every game is just a short "experience" with an overly expensive price-tag attached.
Sebastian Sanchez
>It's for devs and enterprise. It's not a new vive for consumers,
Not him but give me a link because I am not reading this in any of their press release.
The only thing I've read is this is because of ready player one which they are partner of. HTC is literally thinking that ready player one will make VR popular.
Easton Lopez
Not to mention the $1.5k+tip needed to have a VR ready gaming rig.
Brandon Turner
Nigger, they've been shilling the vive pro for a while now, if you go on the website they linked its clear its not targeting devs and professionals.
Nicholas Jones
Um....that game looks playable without VR...? Looks like brood wars and I played that with just a mouse...
Brody Collins
Remember that this was the price of the original vive, bundled with two 150$ controllers, two 150$ base stations and a 40$ game.
They are absolutely insane.
Leo Moore
>With the Vive Pro we are delivering the best quality display and visual experience to the most discerning VR enthusiasts
blog.vive.com
It's for VR enthusiasts apparently
>which is why it's called vive pro and not vive 2
Like the PS4 pro is for developers, right.
Stupid bitch.
Jaxon Sanders
Yeah no, vive pro is 800$ ALONE, you'd have to buy for 600$ of additional shit to get the full experience.
Lucas Stewart

Cooper Price
VR WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE FUTURE, IT SHOULDN'T END LIKE THIS NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Joshua Ortiz

So uh, where are the games?
How can anybody justify spending that much money on hardware with absolutely nothing to do on them?
Lincoln Sanders
You think that's bad?
It's 924 USD in Australia.
Easton Wright

lol, never gonna happen.
Joseph Baker
>As much as a console
>No games
>Needs you to spend way more on a decent PC to be worth a damn

>No software that's any good, even when the idea is great, it's executed in a half ass manner (like VR cinema - no, I don't mean VR movies, I mean being able to sit in a VR cinema with your buddies and stream movies - they have low rez shitty concept versions, but nothing good)
>No games
I wish it had worked this time. I thought, unlike the 90's, this would be the era where it would crack through.
But it seems VR is to gaming as 3D is to movies. Every couple of decades they'll wheel it out, make some quick bucks and then people will get sick of it.
Jeremiah Morales
And the minimum is the two controllers and two base stations, right?
>two controllers = $260
>two base stations =$270
>260+270=530
I don't understand what you're trying to add.
Cameron Adams

Why is Nintendo clairvoyant bros?

Eli Scott
>not already having a 1080ti
Cameron Sanders
Are there any good VR games yet though that makes spending even the new low $500 cost of the Vive worth it?
Lincoln Howard
Mac's also had design and utility going for them. This could be the greatest VR headset in the world - there's still nothing to do with it.
Owen White
Rock and Morty VR
Hunter Johnson

Wyatt Ramirez
Let me go ask my 800 priced at the time Vive that is now in my closet that.
Jordan King
Because unlike a high end gaming computer there's literally nothing you can do with the headset unless it's ATTACHED to a fucking computer?
Are you literally retarded?
Luis Garcia
There will never be a game that justifies VR and couldn't be played with KBM.
VR is only for porn.

WHY
JUST MAKE SOMETHING FOR IT SO I CAN JUSTIFY SPENDING A THOUSAND BUCKS ON IT
PLEASE
Luke Anderson
What bugs me more than the expensive cost of VR is how every two hour long VR vidya "experience" sold on Steam feels the need to price itself at +$30.
VR games are fucking expensive for some reason despite how shit all of them are.
Liam Scott
The rich don't stay rich by spending money on dumb shit, you poorfag.

Not really.
Whoever thought the plastic Power Rangers Blue colour was a good idea should be fired.
Shit looks like a Chinese knock-off.
Parker Walker

Joshua Sullivan
Just as the "Year of Linux" meme has died down we have "Year of VR" to takeover.
>just wait for gen 2, I mean 3
If you buy into any VR garbage you deserve exactly no pity when the realization hits you've bought an $800 accessory with as many worthwhile games as the Virtual Boy. At least early adopters had (false) hope something worthwhile would come out to play on it.
Leo Sanders
It's exactly like 3D. Those old enough to catch these fads don't buy it. Most don't. I hope.
Bentley Moore
Bentley Nguyen
here retard
>no games worth playing
>no controllers and sensors
>$800
what now retard
Lucas Stewart
this argument is so fucking stupid. The rich stay rich because of having such a large nest egg allows them to invest and see large enough returns to be able to blow it on dumb shit. Go back to your job at mcdonalds retard.
Luis Lopez
I could understand that price point if it included the 2.0 lighthouses and controllers but for just the HMD? Fuck that.
Sebastian Garcia
Remember in 2009 after Avatar how no one would ever watch 2D movies ever again?
What happened to that?
Sebastian Anderson
>Still no games
>Still no software
>Still literally two useless sticks and ski goggles
Maybe don't invest anymore money in releasing another pointless iteration of your hardware, and spend some of that money in developing software to make owning that hardware have a purpose.
Aaron Mitchell
I know you're trolling, but there will never be a vive 2. It'll always be like this where you purchase specific modules like a pc. Either upgraded controllers, or upgraded headset/baystations etc.
Jose Myers
Okay so the vive went from 800 to 500 in 2 years.
It should be pretty mainstream priced in 2 years, the valve games should be out by then also.
The real issue is the price you have to pay for a pc able to run the games.
Luke Green
Left hand path.
Oliver Wood
I blame crypo currency.
Dominic Wright
this. i still might the 500 dollar version now just to play with it for a week.
Michael Morales
>valve
>games
Luke Parker
I'm convinced that if we had this technology during the 2000's we'd have actual software to go along with these headsets instead of the 5 minute tech demos going for $40.00+tip.
Companies survived on making quality games to survive and we didn't have literally who indie devs puking out trash.
I JUST WANT GOOD GAMES YOU FUCKS
Andrew Martinez
>t. retard ex-pro-sports dindu or pea-brained wrinkly celebrity
You don't even know how video games even work because you don't have 2 braincells to rub together. Developers chase markets. This is why console sales matter, because a developer is extremely highly likely to make more money on a platform that has sold 80 million units compared to 1 million. That's 80 million potential players vs. 1. Do the math.
"Poorfags" justify the entire damn video game industry by keeping its seas wide and profitable. $800 VR is just like $500 VR, a useless pile of tech without any adoption rate and therefore no developer enthusiasm/support. It's worse than the PS3.
Enjoy playing Skyrim for the 80th time you mong. Bethesda is literally the only company that cares about you, because you folk are so dumb as to buy $10 horse DLC on a game you already paid $60 for.
