VR was never alive to begin with.

Nice butt

Yes
Come back in 20 years when they try again

Yup. Just wait for real Nerve Gear. Nobody wants a half-baked experience.

lol what the fuck happened there

literally why?

If you fall in the game you fall in real life

it's flat though. ???

He tried to lean over and grab something in the mountain climbing game, and expected that thing to support his weight, because he forgot he was playing a video game and not climbing a real mountain.

The novelty kind of wore off. Just slapping a VR mode on an existing game won't cut anymore.
We still lack a VR-exclusive game made from the ground up focused on VR-stuff. But no sane publisher will make a VR-exclusive game when the player base is still so small.
And no way it's getting any bigger until the hardware is cheaper.

It's so sad that people need that webm to be explained.

VR chat and VR Kanojo are fun to mess around with, besides from that there are mostly the same bland experiences overall

This is like the stories about people running out of the theatre room when the train on screen moved toward them.
We will all become a laughing stock, they're going to meme about us thinking the earth is flat.

>people act unusually when experiencing new tech
call the news, this user just made an amazing discovery

Do you think children in the future will care ?
They're just going to view our entire societies like we are medieval peasants. Dirty and dumb.

Except our intelligence didn't change at all since medieval times, the only thing that changed was easier access to information.
If some medieval peasant had access to internet, school books and other things we have today, he would be as smart as us.

its just retarded normies being tho

I mean, here we are eating tide pods and we can't figure out which bathrooms we're supposed to use

I, too, read this on Facebook, my 50 year old friend.

It's cool we agree.
And yet people todat think "we're not dumb medieval peasants, no way we're going to make the same mistakes because we're SMART"

i want to buy one but only for the porn.

Is that on an xbox?

Gotta admit it is pretty sweet desu

There is nothing you can do to prevent future generations from thinking you were retarded. That's just part of getting old.

Great another minigame
also

VR is exactly where it was when it launched. Awesome as a party trick, fun for a couple of days on your own, and nothing substantive to keep you coming back beyond month two.

How can these retards confuse games with shit graphics like that one or that airplane and rollercoster VR demo with real life?
What the fuck is wrong with them

Have you used vr before laddy?

Yes and it looks completely fake.
Just because a screen is very close to my eyes and the scenery moved according to my head movements did not make me think it was real/forget I played a shitty minigame at all.

did they even confirm a custom song mode for that game?

Some of the most immersive experiences I've had in VR have had shit graphics.

>Just because a screen is very close to my eyes and the scenery moved according to my head movements
Yeah, you haven't used VR, at least not the well done experiences.

ah yes the human mind, such a fascible lobule, impregnant, even.

Its not really about looking fake it's about it being immersive and plus it looked like it was his first time ever using a vr.

I gave up on it when no games could figure out an easy way to move yourself around in the game, that point and teleport shit is lame, why not just have a joystick

Samsung gear isnt true vr m8

Oh yes I did.
>at least not the well done experiences.
They all were shitty tech demos or mini games. Except for Project Cars.

No but Sup Forums will claim it is because everyone is a basement dwelling man-baby who just wants to play out-dated games and any kind of progression within the video game industry makes them have an autism attack.

Xbox don't support VR

Me in the back.

Most games now allow you to move like normal. Snap turning is usually the default method for rotation but even that can usually be turned off in favor of free turning.

How well does VR work if you are blind in an eye?

VR is a gimmick and will stay a niche product.
But AR will become big.

How blind? My left eye can't focus for shit and it's fine. Depth perception isn't as big a player as one might imagine for VR- after all, does the real world feel fake to you just because you are blind in one eye?

It won't work at all just like 3d does not work

>Imagine watching the guy playing with without seeing what hes seeing or hears

Ayyy

The only people I've seen defending VR are sony shills, I've tried it and it's not a big deal, definetely wouldn't pay what they're asking for. Besides all games are shit.

VR is great at first, but eventually your brain realizes VR isn't real and most of the sensation goes away. When I first got VR falling made my knees want to buckle and my stomach feel weird, but now it does nothing.

The same way you see the world in real life...

It's definitely on life support.
The only computers that can run VR apps are like the actual top tier 1% of computers coupled with the fact that there isn't a SINGLE fully fledged game worth $60 to play using it and the fact normies who have a playstation VR or think their phone can already do the same thing which considering the amount of garbage shovelware, it pretty much can.

>When you fall in VR you fall in real life

is psvr worth it just so I can get a first-person poledance from a goddess

thinking about getting a headset solely for porn... y/n?

Yes, and the behind it learned absolutely NOTHING from the failure of the first wave. They should have just stuck, to their original goal of turning out $300 goodnuff porn goggles and let the market work its way from there.

payday 2's vr was surprisingly well done for a buggy game on an outdated racing game engine

This actually looks good, and like it was designed for VR instead of just trying to force an existing game franchise into VR. Using the sabers to cut targets in a certain direction is much more intuitive for motion control. It ends up looking sort of like a drumming game, actually.

I don't know if it's in yet, but in September last year they said they were going to add a level editor.
Which would be sorely needed, because in that same interview they also said the game would only have FIVE songs at launch. Five.

Came in here to post this. Damn, nice.

uuuuuh racist sexist much?

youtube.com/watch?v=Zcm9yMtWmVs


Yeah, VR is dead. The fad is over too.

Lone Echo is a full game and it's only $40... There's some normal games that are greatly enhanced with VR like Alien Isolation an Subnautica as well.

This faggot is intolerable to listen to, post your own opinion

>Helmets with two small LCD screens and magnifying glasses are "VR"

Far from dead. It doesn't need to explode and become mainstream right now for a lot of reasons with some obvious ones being the GPU and RAM supply problems. Different hardware is still maturing in relation to VR as well not jus the headsets themselves. The grapes are very sour.

What does a tranny with a potato cam know about VR?

Definitely no depth perception. Things in that eye are blurry to the point of almost no details.

He isn't swayed by FAKE NEWS. Right now only Silicon valley soyboys care about VR. I'm him by the way.

Gabe himself said even if you cut the price in half people wouldn't buy VR headsets because there are no good games for them

>unironically linking to e-celebs

Well Gabe is a fucktard because if Vive was less expensive, more people would buy it, thus furthering demand for games, leading to actual quality games being made.
Right now nobody wants to make games for Vive because nobody fucking has Vive in the first place.

If Sony, noseberg and the gooks at htc can't turn VR into a profitable mainstream business venture, it probably never will be one.

It'll never die because it has THE BEST GAME OF THE CENTURY

VR isn't dead until they stop making porn for it. So no, it is not dead.

Why would I waste $400 for something without a good game? He is absolutely right.

He may be a faggot but he's right ya know.

uh what the fuck is happening in that Microsoft booth in the back?

Do you even own a VR user?
The only people i've ever heard say that it's not immersive have never tried it.

What the fuck do you mean "fake news" you retarded meme spouter? I've had the Rift and Vive since release. Vive with room scale is fucking fantastic. That whole video is biased bullshit relying on tired old shtick and no real points other than the worn our "I tried it in the nineties" argument. So did I faggot and the modern shit is far ahead of that grungy mess.

Sounds similar to what I've got, just maybe more extreme. Still, my point stands- as long as you aren't disoriented by the real world and always falling over, I don't think VR will be significantly less effective for you than it is anyone else. It would be a bigger problem if you were deaf in one ear as the positional audio actually probably has a bigger contribution to sense of presence as depth perception.

VR is rising higher then ever before.

He is right about nothing and has no idea how successful the Vive is in the private sector. People like him or his fans are mad they are too poor to afford it on the consumer level and have no space to use it in anyways. The anti VR crowd is hilarious and their actual VR experience with modern hardware is near zero at best.

>Do you even own a VR user?
Of course not but I have tried it twice.

First at a convention with several mini games and once at a buddies home with Project Cars.
Neither of those times did I take what I was seeing for real and started falling or stumbling like the people you see in those tried-VR-for-the-first-time videos.

VR only really works for racing games and flight sims, two genres that already used head tracking.

>meme tech demos

>nausea and sickness

>expensive hardware

>shitty graphics

dead.

VR is a little different in that the entire purpose is to trick your senses. This is more about personal adaption to the experience than the basic understanding of the concept.

i'd play this with wasd and arrow and without vr

I wonder if they made him pay for shit he damaged while falling.

That shit looks real fucking hard, n way I could focus on two streams and get teh direction of the cut right.
Als they should add in a mode or there should be a game where the contrrollers are attached to your feet - much like DDR, instead of your hands

unironically the human mind is easily tricked. you can play a rollercoaster demo on google cardboard and it'll make your hand go up and down, want it or not

The le angry gaymer shtick got old about 10 years ago if you're that desperate to be efamous.

Hahaha Sony wins

oh cool another tech demo

>bought it for porn
>got tired to set it up after the third time, now it gathers dust except when I occasionally get in the mood for some fetish or Klub17 porn every 2 weeks

Shit sucks mate. When are they going to introduce haptic feedback?

i understand your point if you are rich and can throw money at toys, but normie won't touch vr for years to come

By having a dead tech?
