What are viable alternatives?
- britmob 6y agoThe entire SteamVR ecosystem or WMR.
- mlindner 6y agoVive would be the immediate thought. There's also the pretty expensive Valve Index which is pretty much the best VR system you can buy right now.
- q3k 6y agoSteamVR/OpenVR. It's fantastic.
- GloriousKoji 6y agoValve, HTC and HP.
- forcedsignup 6y agoHP Reverb G2 seems the be the most competitive so far. It's still in pre-order so its not battle-tested yet, but its 600$ and has comparable hardware to the valve index ($1000). Still 200$ more than oculus headsets, but that gap is much better than the 600$ from oculus to valve headset
- ogurechny 6y agoNot wasting your only life on standing with a piece of plastic on your head? Seems pretty viable to me.
- victords 6y agoAh, yes, instead let's just sit down in front of another piece of plastic typing on a keyboard to give unrelated advice on the internet about how bad it's to waste your life in front of a piece of plastic.
- ogurechny 6y agoYes, this was obvious next point in discussion. The trick is keep the thought going and never stop mid-step with a leg in the air thinking this intermediate position is a solid ground. As a next step, we might then ask what makes interaction with a piece of plastic worthy. For example, if you've noticed a popular discussion of a disaster that can be essentially summarized as “our favourite toy has been broken”, and the participants are actually grown up people (?) who are all about showing their investment in “serious business”, shouldn't you sprinkle it with some common sense? Is it a worthy kind of use of electronics?
- cwkoss 6y agoI love the valve index controllers - top of class imo.
