Occulus Quest: I think I paid $350 or $400 a year ago. I just remembered it after reading your post. I used it a couple of times and never used it again.
It is pretty much the same thing with most of my friends. They haven't used it more than a few times.
- cableshaft 4y agoCounter-anecdote: I use mine regularly. It's my main source of exercise outside of walking the dogs now, between Beat Saber, Smash Drums, Space Trainer DX, Racket:Nx (basically 360 degree Racketball with targets) and Ragna Rock (and a little bit of Pistol Whip). Walkabout Mini Golf (the new Myst-themed course is excellent), playing a Doom-looking rogue-like with the new Compound game, walking around a non-Euclidean maze with one to one steps in a procedurally generated map based on whatever your room size is in Tea for God, extremely realistic feeling Ping Pong in Eleven Table Tennis, and putting together 3D puzzles in Puzzling Pieces are also great fun as well. Found an adult Discord group that holds weekly leagues and tournaments for Quest 2 games recently (it's called Quest 2 After Dark Community), so I'm going to try to be available for those and start playing these games multiplayer more. After I get my next game out there (since I got a little too far along on it to restart from scratch with a new engine), the game after that will probably be in Unity and have VR support.

- pgwhalen 4y agoI’m several weeks into owning a quest, and I use it regularly only for dance/exercise-ish games. I’m not sure how long it’ll last, but I think it has helped to have really low expectations. It’s not “a new computing paradigm”, it’s just kind of an interesting toy.
