alright, i give up, i want to watch VR anime porn and shitpost on VRchat. can someone redpill me on VR? best headset, good games to play, where i can find the cheapest one on ebay, etc. i figure we're far enough out of the initial VR hype that i could get some good deals right?
Rift is gonna send videos of you jerking it to all of your Facebook friends

So I won't have to do it myself anymore? Sold.

Rift has by far the best quality/price ratio. Get a referral code for 10% discount from r/oculus
Anthony Morris
don't do it user. I had fun with my Rift in VRChat for a while but it's turned me suicidal.
Christian Jenkins
Why user
John Moore
it's a depressing reflection of real life. 99% of players are desktop normalfags with 50 friends and have no problem making new ones. I struggle to make even one friend and sustain any kind of contact. it's a good reminder of how lonely and isolated I am
Oliver Sanchez
you don't find friends on vr chat
Isaac Cooper
I love vr but I can't play online games like vrchat. I have over 5 hours in vrchat just from opening the game finding a room, trying to work up the nerve to talk and when somebody addresses me quite the game with a racing heart. Try flatscreen vr chat before buying a headset
And my redpil to you is that you can hire vr strippers/actors for all your desires.

I have both and the Vive is best for bigger spaces and active games. The rift is good for small rooms and casual play. But you NEED vrcovers because the foam is shit on both.
Blake Gomez
This. Everyone on vrchat is either just to have a fun time by acting like a fool, not caring about bonding, show their "talents" or share their entitled emo opinions/stories.

>cheaper (yes even with a 3rd sensor because you need a deluxe audio strap to make the vive halfway comfortable) >way better support...htc support is the worst of the worst of the worst >comfy touch controllers with dual thumbsticks instead of retarded wands >bigger sweet spot >less SDE
The ONLY thing Vive has is it can do larger play spaces, and setting up the sensors is easier. Rift maxes out at 3.5x3.5m iirc, so unless you need a space larger than that, the Vive has too many downsides. The support is the biggest one. Go read the Jow Forumsvive posts about it, it's horrific.

There are winners and losers in capatalism. It's kinda like gambling. And gambling is haram. So i think with just a little more immigration we'll make sure you'll never get scammed ever again user. Insjallah.
Jordan Murphy
All this is true but fuck the rift and their walled garden applesque bullshit
Jacob Powell
While I agree with you, you could just do what I do, and only buy games on SteamVR unless they're exclusives. That way I'm not locked in if a better headset comes along in the future.
Connor Price
Just got a WMR for fun, can send it back for free in 2 weeks if I don't like it.
Any recommendations for sites to download games + updates? I know IGG and cs.rin.ru, but IGG often doesn't have updates and rin is a known clusterfuck.
Ryder Reed
rin is pretty much the best place if you can't find a torrent. VR games are harder to pirate in general simply because of the smaller user-base.
Jason Collins
Appreciate the feedback guys, I'll probably end up going with Rift then because I have a small bedroom and space will be an issue for sure, plus the competitive price is enticing. Only thing that worries me is this What kind of walled garden are we talking about here? I'm still gonna be able to watch my vr porn and play torrented vr games (if possible) right?
Oculus has its own store, Oculus Home, and its own proprietary VR SDK, whereas Steam uses an open SDK. The latter point really only matters for devs. The former point only matters if you buy games on Oculus Home, since if you get a non-Oculus headset in the future, you won't be able to play the games. Thankfully, SteamVR games work just fine on the Rift, even if they don't target the Oculus SDK, so just buy whatever games you can on Steam, and stick to the Oculus store for exclusives.
There's no DRM when it comes to playing pirated games or playing videos.
James Scott
Fuck, that vid is a classic. One of the best VR porn videos I've ever seen. Patrician choice, user.
This is the best site I've found for porn torrents by far. Everything there is in super high quality. Leave it to the Russkis to pirate porn properly: trupornolabs.org/
Jeremiah Gutierrez
>One of the benefits of an oculus is that it still works without tracking so you can lay in bed and watch porn or a movie.
hmm, the vive doesnt do this? that's definitely a big plus for the Oculus then. Do i always need to have the trackers set up too or can i just plug in the headset and use it to watch videos by itself?
also much appreciated on the porn, i might need a bigger HDD if all VR porn files are that huge lol. do i need a special player for it? doesnt seem to run in VLC
based, thank you
John Taylor
Thanks man. However I advice you to pay a bit for your vr porn since the market is so small
No the Vive just gets a grey screen. You can use your rift without sensors and you can even play some games that don't require controllers.
