It looks interesting and I’m happy someone’s working on this, but I doubt it’ll be a great experience and definitely not worth the total cost, headset included.
Remains to be seen how it actually plays, but I can imagine that the general gameplay is very difficult to get right.
I‘ve been a huge YNAB fan (and subscriber) for over 10 years now, but I find it increasingly difficult to justify spending that much on any app. What are they even doing with that money? I don’t see huge changes to the app, it’s not like they’re producing expensive tv shows or movies. It’s literally just an app and a website that displays a list of transactions.
There hasn’t been a single quarter where they’ve even broken even. Meta has been loosing billions and will continue to loose billions for the foreseeable future. They’re pumping money into VR hoping it’ll one day become an important platform they can control themselves and no longer be at the mercy of Apple or Google. They’re not in it for the money – not yet.
I think that was in one of his videos, but just because it got teased doesn’t make it any better. It’s not like no one will notice just because you’re not talking about it, all it does is keep people wondering if that’s the end, which is a lot worse than just knowing that it is.
PS VR2 was designed from the ground up specifically for PS5 – so you’ll notice that some key features, like HDR, headset feedback, eye tracking, adaptive triggers, and haptic feedback (other than rumble), are not available when playing on PC. However, other high-fidelity and sensory immersion features of PS VR2 are supported, including 4K visuals (2000 x 2040 per eye), 110-degree field of view, finger touch detection, and see-through view, as well as foveated rendering (without eye tracking) and 3D Audio in supported games.
Adaptive triggers is not surprising I guess, but even the haptic feedback? Eye tracked foveated rendering as well, imo all this combined with the price tag for the adapter makes this not a good option. Only if you already have one and always wanted to try PC VR. And even then I’m not sure if it’s worth the adapter price.
The guy in the video literally just watches a video and compares a picture of a screw with an actual one. I don’t think anyone would bother putting on a headset for that.
If someone is buying a Quest for productivity I think they’ll be very disappointed. The new window management looks like a welcome improvement though.
I obviously don’t have any inside information, but my guess is that he’s not flexing with this, he just can’t let it go, he probably should. Especially since he’s already halfway in retirement.
It was working again for me after a few hours, but not being able to play anything at all, including downloaded offline games, was really frustrating.
Not all of these are programming languages btw
Just because games/apps are in app lab doesn’t mean they’re early access though, right?
