I have a first release Oculus Rift and ended up not really using if after the first few weeks because it mostly just felt like a cool tech demo and not really ready for regular use.
A friend recently brought over his Valve Index and using it felt like it was actually approaching something I could see using more than to just show off a fun gadget (as you put it). Really the big thing is the screens finally felt good enough that I was able to occasionally forget what I was looking at was because I had two monitors strapped to my face.
That said, I think I'm probably going to wait one more generation before I spend the money on a new headset. Hopefully the improvements in gen3 will comparable to those between gen1 and gen2.
- dougmwne 6y agoFrom what you've already seen from the Rift, I would probably wait for the model with built in eye-tracking, a new lens technology (varifocal?) and either stand-alone or fully wireless PC linked. 2 more generations or about 6 years? I hope we get there before companies lose interest.
