"VR is struggling" - linking to Linus Tech Tips video from January nonetheless. Right...
Meanwhile Oculus Quest came out, and PCVR has or is about to enter the second gen.
- shasheene 7y agoI've played quite a bit with the Oculus DK1, GearVR, Oculus CV1 and the Oculus Go, and after 2 weeks of usage I can say the Oculus Quest is much better than any of them. Low barriers to putting the headset on and immediately walking around in VR is hard to overstate. I think it will be a very big hit. The virality levels are very high with people showing their family and friends, who then want to go out and get their own. The downsides are the games are a bit too expensive, and the headset itself costs $400 which is alright, but it does need to be cheaper if they want to achieve Nintendo Wii type sales figures (which the Quest fully has the potential to do).
- ok_coo 7y agoExactly. I work in web/tech at a museum and I see AR/VR as the next big thing to hit the horizon. The potential is very big, and very cool. It's not quite there yet, but it's coming soon and once it gets going, it will be as big as the iPhone hitting or greater. It just needs to hit that sweet spot of price, esthetic and functionality.
