I don't wanna upgrade my PC again and find a good area in my house.
I will probably pick up a PSVR headset if it goes on sale, though.

I don't own one because it isn't cheap

There will never be good games on anything VR related.

>>378032043
VR gets cheaper because...

you don't have anything to play other than "visual experiences"

>>378032043
They make me sick... Even the good ones

This comic is already fucking stupid on the second picture
VR still isnt cheap
>>378032043

I would have to pay 300 for at least a gtx 970 100 for a power supply
a new case to hold it
a new cpu
a new board for the cpu
and then spend 800 bucks on the headset which has nothing but unity garbage

It's not VR unless you upload your consciousness into a virtual world.
This shit is literally just a glorified Virtual Boy.

The implication by panel 4 is he had to wait at least two decades for VR to be worth playing.

Good point... I guess.

You'll be surprised how cool it is. Plus it's free.

I like those games as KB+M games, you can't say the games are better as VR when they were designed not with a headset in mind. you're opening a whole can of worms.

>>378032537
>super hot

>half life

Pretty much every game that gets ported to VR is fucking stupid because you know how fast you could beat it if you didnt have unintuitive motion controls holding you back

>>378032043
so why does the VR kid slowly morph into an ageless hipster?

>>378032421
IMO the main problems with current VR Headsets is the long wires (It's possible to get a wireless thing, but it adds latency), No eye tracking (upgrade kit for the Vive is being made), and relatively low resolution (hardware limitation).

>>378032698
his mere intelligence sustains him because he didnt fall for the VR meme

>>378032043
Why are reddit comics always just one giant strawman?

>>378032043
because I'm not convinced by mediocre strawman webcomics.

I saw that Neptunia is getting a VR game and it made me want to get a PSVR.

>>378032698
It's a curse he brought upon himself for waiting so long for VR, now he must suffer forever as he'll never be able to enjoy it.

>look at all these ports and games no one that matters gives a single fuck about
>look at all these games people are suggesting are worth caring about to justify the hundreds they wasted on something that's been in their closet for months on end collecting dust

VR will always be a fad made specifically to steal money from new generations of gamers. After VR dies again, which it will, it will come back in maybe 8 to 10 years and try to do this all over again.

>>378032670
>>378032713
I never said the games were objectively better in VR, I was just counteracting the guy's posting saying that all the games were crap.

>>378032818

>>378032043
I only have one because my brother decided to buy one.
He hasn't touched it for months

Why the fuck would you buy VR using this comic as a basis?

>>378032112
Cosmic trip

>>378032848

What video game related webcomic isn't either boring or a giant strawman?

>>378032969
ok, a mix of crap and ports.

Nintendo doesn't get away with it here either.

>>378032043
The comic doesn't mention sickness that vr causes. The most important part. Not spending $800 to get sick in 15 mins for the rest of the day.

Although my $75 gear vr is great for porn and since I don't have to move I don't get sick.

>>378032964
>no one that matters gives a single fuck about
I saw people in an earlier thread saying that Pavlov VR is good, but then again I'm pretty sure anyone who posts on /v/ doesn't matter.

It is convenient I agree. Very handy for instantly knowing when to completely ignore someone.

>>378033362
Virtual Boy had headtracking and motion controls?

>>378033358
Love how you used my favorite console of all time for a strawman argument.

Fuck off.

>>378033304
the counter argument about VR is always the health and safety of it, something VR faggots are willing to ignore.

if people are willing to ignore glaring problems with something, they are idiots, no question.

A lot of games that /v/ love have glaring problems.

>>378033398

That sucks man. I play Serious Sam in my Vive and it's fucking wild.

>>378033527
the wii has those.

headtracking actually was a concept that could have worked for wii, there was a game that toyed with the idea of putting the wiimote on as a hat and letting the system work that as a head tracker. EA of all people came up with the unused concept.

>>378033448
I agree.
It's so much easier to simply disregard any opinion that isn't the same as mine.

>>378032796
Because the future is bleak and depressing

>>378033530
Why do you make assumptions on nothing

>>378033620
annnnd if people ignore those glaring problems or refute those problems poorly, they're idiots.

>>378032043
because it's a gimmick, like motion controls. can be a fun experience, especially in short bursts, but doing nothing but that gets boring fast and it has nowhere near a good or big enough library to attract me.

>>378033620
If games have problems it's a good thing VR doesn't have any.

There is literally no game that is absolutely free.

I bought the $15 Cardboard thing from Google, you just slip your phone into it.

I liked the demo stuff you can do with the Cardboard app on android, but most videos are in pretty shit quality on youtube and its hard to control the screen.

But the VR porn is out of this world. You can't go back to your regular smut after that.

Are you saying that as long as the system is absolutely perfect, it doesn't matter the quality of the games?

>>378032349

>>378032043
I'm waiting on Vive 2, and most regular games don't support VR even with injection.

And you didn't even mention any proper VR games. VR is made for flight and racing sims, faggot. Go fuck yourself with your casual bullshit. Trying to fit VR tech into games that are completely not suited for it is just pathetic. You are the reason no one takes VR seriously.

I get motionsick easily so I wouldn't be able to play any of the non-gimmick games.
Plus I wear glasses and don't want to get contacts just to use it.

It feels to me like VR is going to end up like motion controls, very popular for a while and then a slow decline in popularity.
Maybe not though.
If they fix all of the giant issues with VR as it is now then I might buy one later.

Not him but something that uses the capabilities of VR to it's full extent. At the moment, it's just a glorified personal display. So it's impossible to define what good shit is since there is any good shut for VR aside from waifu sims.

>"good shit"?
The question mark goes inside quotations.

Video games are already fun without VR

>>378034534
Both of those will only have a select number of things playable in VR instead of the whole game (just like Trackmania Turbo which only has 40 VR tracks).
Some better examples would be:

Just watched some gameplay. I don't really like the teleport mechanic that all games have been doing. It just looks like a regular VR shooter, but I guess if have to play it to be convinced. It's not like there are demo stations for VR at GameStop, Best Buy or anything.
