I bought a Vive back in August. I loved the shit out of it for months, but gradually stopped using it, although I still think it's an amazing piece of hardware and a big piece of the future.
But, when I play games, I frequently want a very relaxing activity, and the Vive doesn't do that. So, interesting.
But! As a (former?) AR professional, holy shit the non-gaming applications for AR/VR. There's overlap and synergy for applications in both mediums, and then there's the overlap on the technologies (particularly authoring tech - I'm looking at you, Unity) that go into them.
Basically, if I wanted to be a "real" AR developer when AR is ready, I'd start by becoming a real VR developer now.
- wakkaflokka 10y agoSo the question is, are you willing to sell it for pennies on the dollar so I can try it out for a few hours and then send it off to someone else? ;)
- RangerScience 10y agoNo, not even a little.
