I love my HTC Vive. I'm not sure where the video uploader is getting that VR headsets are uncomfortable. There's straps that adjust to your preference and are very comfortable, and I even wear glasses! But at least with the HTC Vive it feels great with tracking that doesn't "cut out" like the uploader claims. Also another thing is that he said that people can't watch you play while in VR, and that's simply just not true. SteamVR uses screen mirroring so people can watch on your computer monitor or flat-screen. Actually, many VR games automatically mirror the screen for you already. There's so many misconceptions about VR that people need to see it to believe it, and honestly VR is worth it. The one thing I agree with the uploader is that there is a barrier for people who don't have good PCs for virtual reality. But to say VR doesn't provide a full experience is just plain wrong.

Mr Vuck Fiacom hey man thanks for ur comment. I'm thinking of spending money on a pc and a vr system and after watching this vid I'm kinda hesitant now. I think the vid made some good points against jumping into vr but I REALLY WANT ONE lol. So out of all the questions I still have, I'll ask u one; do u spend a TON of time having to configure vr for gaming? Like the vid said, all I wanna do is strap the head set on and game. Seems like it would be no fun if much of my time is dealing with configurations. Thanks!

James Perez, I appreciate the question and I'm glad you asked, you shouldn't be discouraged by the video at all. The video is mostly talking about "phone VR" and the Oculus Rift which is _very_ different from the HTC Vive. Even the Oculus Rift doesn't have full room scale tracking unlike the HTC Vive which never loses tracking, and can even track in very large rooms like a warehouse. The video uploader probably has never tried it before, or has never used a Vive at least. You can literally walk around your whole room and it would still track you. However, Oculus added support for room scale but you'd need an extra sensor and USB cables where the HTC Vive only needs 2 sensors and is wireless and easy to setup. Configuring VR is actually very easy for my HTC Vive. All you have to do is plug in your 2 sensors into a wall outlet. There is no need to run cables across your room into your computer. You don't even need to mount the sensors to the wall, I just put my sensors on a table and it works and doesn't cut out. Just point the sensors at eachother and it'll work straight away. The only thing that plugs into your PC is obviously your VR headset (which is just an HDMI cable). SteamVR is integrated in Steam, so all you have to do is select the game you want to play and it'll automatically boot up SteamVR. Every time you want to play VR, all you have to do is just put on the headset and go! You only configure the sensors once, and all that is just plugging it into an outlet. The Vive is getting so many good accessories to make it even better. Valve is making a Knuckle controller that can track your fingers and hand movements, and they are now making a battery pack to make your VR headset fully wireless! Not mention they're working on full body tracking for the Vive. Overall, VR is very easy to set up even if you know next to nothing about computers. The experience is mind-blowing, and it deeply saddens me that this video is seriously downplaying the benefits of VR with small little things that don't affect VR gameplay at all. I really hope you get to try VR and don't feel like VR is what the video claims it is, because many of the points in the video are trivial and are not problems. Not to mention that VR can be used to watch movies and browse the web, it doesn't have to be all gaming too. You can get the Oculus Rift for cheaper, but you sound like you want the complete VR experience and want an easy set up, so I'm recommending the Vive. They actually dropped the price of the HTC Vive $200 down! Sorry about the long write-up, but I hope this answers your concerns about Virtual Reality in depth.

VR is going to do for gaming (among many other non-gaming things) what the Smartphone did for cell phones. Right now they're working out all the systems and working on making it less expensive, which is how most things go, including your phone/computer that you're on right now reading this.

I'm a developer and I own an Oculus Rift. The problem with VR isn't anything you mentioned in the video. You touched a bit on it early on. You said some games coming out will have no movement and will have teleport instead. This isn't some random design decision. The main problem with making games in VR is that you get motion sickness when the camera moves. Unless you get physical feedback, your body reacts VERY negatively to movement. This is inner ear stuff that controls your balance. It doesn't sense the shift in gravity and people will react anywhere from being fine to being completely nauseous. There is no technology that will make this go away. Some people have tried adding a reference point in the view to simulate seeing part of your nose and face to "ground" people with various degrees of success. But it's... weird.

This is why "whole room" VR is even a thing. Unfortunately, few could ever use such a system. It's also why the best, most immersive VR experiences come from simulations, be it racing, flying, space-flight, etc. If you're supposed to be standing in one place the entire time in-game, or you're supposed to be sitting down (like in a cockpit), motion sickness is less of an issue.

Well, 13 years ago the speed of my internet connection was horrible. 64kbps. Computers were expensive and had bad specs. Games had bad graphics and there wasn't nearly as many of them as there are now. Newer games would lag. Older games would crash. I'd lose connection when playing multi-player games. And now I have none of the problems. If I stopped or wouldn't use computers in the first place I wouldn't even know how much I would miss. Give VR some time. There are many things that could be improved and each of them will have a significant impact on the experience: getting rid of the wire, better resolution, better fov. There's fun and good experiences to be had already, but it's still pretty much early tech. It did already get better compared to what we had in 2012-2013. I don't regret buying a VR headset.

HTC, Valve and Facebook have all said they did not expect VR to be in every household. But just gaming in the early 80's that was a niche in the arcades mostly, it eventually became cheaper and better. To be honest though, I love my Vive and my friends and family who have used it love it. Especially my dad who used to love travelling but now cannot absolutely adores being able to see the world in Google Earth VR. Sure it's not perfect, but VR has offered me experiences that I have not had from any other technology. Even if VR was to fail now, I am still happy with my headset.

>Give VR some time. Have we any other option? And, no offense, but if you're about 20 years old, yeah, this might just be "okay, it'll be alright, it's still being developed". But anyone who's older will know that VR, even if technology has evolved a lot over the last almost 30 years and is completely different from what it was, it is exactly the same experience it was before. And we have been waiting for it. All our lives, actually. It's the same effect with flying cars, everyone in the 50's--70's expected that by today we'd be exchanging blowjobs and handjobs in a crysler parking sky cinema. And what are the flying cars we have today? Srsly, look at them, some look really promising and fun and all, but... Not quite there yet. Just like VR. Promising, fun, novelty, different, somewhat expensive, but practical? Not quite. I am not bashing it, I'd love to support VR, but I have sense enough to understand that I will not be paying over 300 dollars (plus import, plus product taxes) for some novelty item that I can use for about an hour and a half, two hours tops for mediocre fun, when I could just pick up a good game, or simply read a book, which honestly is way more fun than having 200° camera control, without mouse aim and controller movement. It's an expensive arcade game, even if you can just plug it. It's like buying a yo-yo: it'll be fun for some minutes, and some people will do amazing stuff with them and post on youtube and all, but that's it. Unless they figure it out, which we have been waiting for the last >25 years.

The biggest killer of VR right now is the lack of games that will keep you interested for more then a few short hours before you have seen everything it has to offer. Once we have something to actually play frequently then they should start experimenting with the hardware's potential.
@TheGIANTgonads

No what we need is anything but 3rd person games, (seriously, 3rd person in VR? what's the point). What we need is multiplayer games and more users. The primary driving force behind the gaming revolution of the early 2000s, was the online multiplayer game and the rapidly increasing prevalence of the home computer / console. Go through most steam accounts and you will find people with thousands of hours clocked on MP games, where they have only clocked hundreds on SP games (with exceptions OFC). The reason is that the MP experience can be unique every time, regardless of the games mechanics. Instead of the same scripted enemies, or the same AI every play, you verse a new enemy every time, even if it's the same guys as last game, because you both learnt from your last game. That is what brings people back, not story or graphics. We are on the precipice of a new gaming revolution, never before have we had this level of computational power in the hands of the average joe, nore has computer gaming had such a large global following (look at esports). Before you quote the minimum requirements of VR, I am running my Vive on a GTX 770 (below minimum) which runs the current MP VR games just fine with no expense to the experience. You can look back on VR through the ages and scoff at what i'm saying here, but it's an easy position to take and that does not necessarily make you correct. In fact this mentality can be a self-fulfilling prophecy. I suggest that if you really think VR is what you want gaming to be, you should put your money where your mouth is instead of being a salty cunt about it. Honestly if you are worrying about your kit becoming obsolete, you need a reality check, "knock knock, modern computing at the door, just wondering if your coming with us into the 21st century".

@Christer - It was the same price 20 years ago. A VR headset cost around $300-$600 with motion tracking. It was also "usable for real". Yes, the graphics were blocky (as were most 3D graphics of the time), the tracking was a little slower, and the refresh was low enough to give you headaches. That said, at the time, people were AMAZED by it, thought it was tremendously immersive, and were so excited by it that it influenced more than just PC and console gaming culture. Of course, things have changed a lot in 20 years. Unfortunately, the roadblocks for VR back then still exist. VR didn't die in the 90's just because the graphics weren't great or the tracking was slow. VR died for so many other reasons, and those reasons haven't been overcome yet. Yeah, we have better graphics, better tracking, better controls, better audio, etc. That's why this is Gen 2. Unfortunately, they just can't fix what needs to be fixed.

As a gamer do I want to wear it 24/7 heck no but I do find it very fun and not a gimmick. there are some great games for them all and I'd say yes there needs to be some more AAA games and the reason that a lot of games are using teleportation is because of the VR sickness or motion sickness and this method definitely eliminates that for some people

A couple graphic card refreshes and fallout 4, skyrim, even gta v will be possible in 4K VR. In late 2017 $1200 Aus gets you a card that can handle 60 frames on any title using a normal 4K monitor (1080 ti). Next refresh the Volta 1170 should be around $750 with the same power, two years after that even consoles should be able to handle current gen titles in 4K 60 fps. We can see therefore that by the early 2020s VR will be able to put out current (2017) games in 4/8k 'VR remasters" that have highly improved visuals, frame rates AND all in VR and on console.

It's a lack of good games and cheap hardware. Without either of those two, people have no push to purchase the hardware. Perhaps with a killer app, this could change in a couple years. (Edit: I see this comment has stirred up a little anger. I didn't wish to offend anyone with it, nor slander VR or anything like that. I'd like clear up my thoughts on the matter. First off: "A lack of good games" was poor wording on my part. There are good games on VR platforms, yes. What I should have said is that there is a lack of content that is compelling enough to buy into VR. The multiple indie titles on the platform may be good. But I have yet to see a game that really sold the idea of investing in VR. And it is an investment. Which brings me to the second point: While VR tech has gotten considerably cheaper, the total investment necessary to play VR titles is still quite expensive. A large portion of the gaming audience either has no PC capable of running VR content, or has no gaming PC whatsoever. So, should they choose to get into the platform, they'd have to pay anywhere between $500 to a couple thousand for the PC hardware; on top of what they paid for the VR hardware. Without compelling games for the system, I don't see many average gaming consumers making that investment. Even getting into VR on console can be expensive for some, and in return they'll get an underpowered experience compared to VR on PC. It's fine if you already have gotten into VR. I'm not doubting your purchase. If you could afford the necessary PC hardware or already had it, then great. I'm happy you get to experience this promising tech. But for me and many others, getting into VR is something that won't happen for another few years.)

I play my Vive for hours, haven't stopped since I got it, still love it. I can't play 2D games anymore. Oculus users can use Steam, and play every game available for Vive. Bethesda games will just not be in the Oculus store, so you are completely wrong on that point, Oculus players will be able to play Fallout and whatever else, but on Steam. How can you say it sucks when you haven't even played it yet? VR is in its infancy. Biggest drawbacks are price, and resolution. Supposedly the Piemax 8K fixes the resolution issue. Early adapters always pay the steepest price for new technology. Price will eventually go down, introducing better games. It's the classic chicken and egg. VR is too good to be a fad, but yes better development, cheaper prices, and better games will help build it. I don't think it's some fad that will wear out, definitely the way for the future and much more to come out of it.

I heard the resolution on the 8K makes things crisp which is not the greatest on both current systems. The Vive also has a wireless module coming out soon, but I know Oculus will follow up. I had a friend who had both he said Oculus was much more comfortable and a bit more crisp? Either way you go both are great, don't listen to the douche troll on this video.

As a 25 year old adult with the HTC vive I can honestly say VR gaming has been the most fun in a party environment than any other time I have played it. I setup my play space to have enough room to move around but also have a 45" tv and couch to spectate. We make drinking games out of the different tech demo's (the bow game in the lab is by far the most popular) and compete to see who can get the highest score, we give nick names to the high score holders of the games (Han solo for space pirate trainer, Legolas for the bow game, baba yaga for onward). For the game keep talking and nobody explodes I actually got the gear I was issued in the army (ballistic vest with plates, helmet, gloves, etc) and we make the bomb diffuser wear full PPE (personal protective equipment and assign nicknames and one person to be the coordinator. Getting to mingle, talk about the experiences, and share thoughts with a bunch of like minded people has sparked a lot of interest in my group of friends and 2 of them who purposely stay one generation of home console behind everyone for cost reasons are actually getting brand new PC's and HTV Vives of their own. I love sharing the experience of VR with a group of like minded people so for me it is 100% worth even if I don't get daily play out of it.

I found myself not being able to judge very well if I should speed up or slow down into a turn as well as telling if my steering wheel was aligned correctly because I can't see it. So I would just wait for the force feedback to correct the wheel for me at some point. Just my experience with it.

This video rustled my jimmies somewhat, so I'm gonna argue it point by point. I still really don't get why the press believes that VR isn't doing well. Not only do statistics show a significant amount of the market are interested in the technology, but both the HTC Vive and PSVR have been selling very well, even in 2017. As for the Besthesda VR demos, Fallout 4 VR has been received significantly better than the other demos, as it's had more development time. You might want to actually do your research on that, rather than just saying "it's similar to Elder Scrolls, so it must be the same as it's demo". A lot of games currently available are akin to tech demos. There are a lot of indies who are willing to play with the new technology and see what can be created. Discounting the entire library because of this purely is not fair. There are a lot of quality games available, with more support coming everyday. Besthesda, a large company, making these VR conversions is a huge sign of that. Arguing that the experience cannot be enhanced by sharing it with others is just factually incorrect. Not only are there many VR titles that allow for online multiplayer (hell, even Steam's default app allows to do this), but I've also shared the Vive that I personally own with plenty of people locally, and we've all had a blast experiencing it. Not to mention games like "Keep Talking and nobody explodes" and "Diner Duo", both of which incorporate local multiplayer with someone using the traditional display. VR is already doing well, despite what you and every other "gaming" sites believe. Like I said before, actually do some research. Spreading this misinformation only makes the journalist hop on the ignorant "VR is doomed" train. The technology is niche, and has it's fair share of issues, but it's far from being a failure.

I've checked out pieces of VR tech in the past (including the virtual boy), and they always kind of came and went, like - "well this is shit, maybe they'll figure out how to do it right later." It feels different this time around. I think it's here to stay this time, and like I saw with consoles throughout my lifetime so far, I think improvement will be an ongoing thing, but I don't think VR will fall into obscurity again, the way it has in the past.

I was blown away when I bought my PSVR! It was simply amazing, despite low res graphics, short game experiences, and immersion breaking cables or slight headset discomfort. However, my VR collects dust now for the simple reason of motion sickness. I’m well aware that I should have tried the VR at the demo stations they had before I purchased the PSVR. I want VR to succeed, but I am reluctant to play anymore racing, FPS, or flight sims without a healthy dose of Dramamine by my side.

They don't have as many game options when it comes to top game makers, but I had Elite Dangerous before buying the oculus. and after trying it in VR, there is no way I can go back to regular playing. It really is an incredible feeling when sitting in the cockpit of your own ship with the galaxy at your fingertips. Even at the helm of a trading vessel about to grind on trading missions, it definitely doesn't feel like grinding anymore when it seems real. Even the touch controllers work well with it with very little re mapping. Anyone who has played that has probably remapped the entire controls on their keyboard and mouse.

Seriously, trying to push FPS gaming is the best example of developers being out of touch with video games and being focused on money. That's the business of gaming. You do what the format allows. In the 70s and 80s games with star fighters and aliens were common because of their simplicity. The format necessitated them. They came by the mountainful. Yet here we are finally at a time where they should be coming in droves, where racing games should return, not just hyper realistic ones but games like Wipeout and F-zero, Sega's Outrun VR. Time Crisis VR where you can play first person but between stages it moves you automatically. No pedal needed to hide anymore. Pilotwings VR... The potential out there is intense. If they'd allow it.

AAA games get the funding because they're going to hit mass market (which unfortunately VR is not considered to be a part of) So nobody takes the time to work on AAA VR games. Starwars battlefront 2 for eg. I was excited for the VR content on PC. THen it was a Sony only thing. And I cancelled my preorder. Now it's probably never going to happen. Well fuck you EA. Unfortunately these large AAA dev studios work with publishes who want RETURN ON INVESTMENT. VR isn't it. I wish it were. I'm almost an exclusive VR gamer these days.

I bought a rift just to see what it was like, I literally had my first experience with VR yesterday when i finished setting everything up. I think it's the best thing gaming wise that I have ever experienced since I switched to PC from console back in the mid 2000's. It's no where near as clunky or jittery as I originally thought it would be. It's actually quite the opposite. I can see how it might not be for everyone, but at the same point, I think everyone should give it a try before thinking it's stupid.

Vive sales in Q1 '17 are reported to be about 190k units. Rift was a little behind Vive sales due to late release of their controllers and some problems with their tracking system, but is reported to sell within 50% of Vive. Of course neither of these are in the ball park for PC sales much less for console sales, but writing them off right now is pretty short sighted. As noted previously the current hardware suite for VR is either expensive or limited. At a total cost of $2k for PC, graphics card, and headset, 270k units, the early adopter business is already worth over half a billion dollars. That is in the first quarter. Whether that translates into general adoption depends on how well VR makes the transition from niche interest to general interest. I don't have a crystal ball telling me the future, but having experienced it first hand, I do think it is compelling enough to appeal to the masses. Cost reductions will help, moreso as new generations of graphics and PC hardware are released, but my feeling is that although the tech is expensive right now, it does live up to its hype, and prices can drop as the tech graduates into the mainstream.

Honestly it comes down to content. They need to treat VR like any other hardware launch and have a good line up of games available and more on the way. VR launched with clumsy, glitch filled tech demo's of games. No one really knew how to make a VR game let a good on and it showed. After that first launch of games that did little more than explore what VR could offer by making you look around at stuff there was pretty much nothing. Even stuff like Skyrim, a game that's several years old wasn't released until what one or two years after VR first hit the shelves? VR suffered from the same problem motion controllers, the Kinect or even old school stuff like the activation circle from the sega gensis days. Gimmicks alone won't sell hardware if there is nothing to do with them.
