VR headsets can be fun for some games, but the hardware and software still have a lot of maturing to do, it's not like smartphones where it feels very developed and there's not much more room for obvious growth/improvement.
- MyFirstSass 3y agoYesterday i was close to buying a Pico 4 (Cheaper non meta Quest 3 equivalent), then i realised there has been zero fully triple a games since my friend blew me away with a Half Life Alyx demo 4 years ago. I find it incredible there's still only 1 actual "serious" VR game - lots of people then recommended Skyrim VR, a game from 2011. Is VR gaming in an absolute standstill?
- TulliusCicero 3y agoIt's not at all, no. There's plenty of compelling games, there just aren't any AAA games (not ones built for VR only anyway) because the market simply isn't big enough to justify the incredible production costs. If you're dead set on only AAA games then yeah, it's not a useful purchase, but that doesn't mean it's "standing still".
- jamilton 3y agoI think there are few to zero new AAA games, but I don't think that means VR gaming is at a standstill, or that there are no great, fun games.
