So what’s the killer app? Beatsaber and some other games can be a lot of fun, but they’re not new. What new experience are ready for this? I get the quality is better, and that’s not nothing. But other than that this largely seems like more of the same. VR still doesn’t seem to have advanced much in software to me. And Meta keeps pushing virtual meetings and such but that’s not my cup of tea. I owned a Quest 2 and ha…
Earlier quoted context omitted.
keep doing it and clicking on buttons, eventually I got in but it was maybe 6th attempt (firefox + ublock origin)
Just enable the annoyance lists in uBlock Origin and stop rejecting/accepting cookies like a modern person :)
Notable shift in emphasis to mixed reality. I wish they had HDR support called out for the passthrough though. The Quest 2 CPU was too weak, and while this one will be better the Apple chips are still way out in front there. The proportion of people in tech I know with a Quest 2 they never use is amazing. We all want VR to work but fundamentally headsets are a bad idea.
I daily drove my quest 2 using immersed VR for a few months. In the end, the resolution was just not good enough for it to be better than my 3 monitor setup. But I'm looking forward to trying again in a couple of generations.
Counter-intuitively, I think I'd be able to manage a headset better if it wasn't this box strapped to the front of my face, but rather an evenly balanced hockey helmet with a flip-up mask. I can do hours wearing a hockey helmet, but these things are uncomfortable after a little while, and I think it's because it's just a more balanced thing that my neck muscles aren't constantly counteracting. Not to suggest that tha…
The only information I need: horizontal angle:110, vertical angle 90. Garbage. I don’t know how anyone finds these experience immersive.
I don't need/want all the mixed reality and metaverse BS. I just want a good FoV and resolution. They really invest in the wrong areas, imo.

These companies want a mass market product, not a niche product that only tech enthusiasts can appreciate.
