    THE XR4 HAS ARRIVED.. AND ITS FREAKIN' GOOD. What do ya think? Willing to rip out a kidney to get one? I'm unsure especially with Vision Pro coming up.

      2:40 Virtual Desktop is a hard pass for me. All these years later, I basically have two options. Let VD display 1920x1080 on my desktop (which is 5120x1440, so the image is unusably stretched in passthrough) OR I can flip the option to fit my 5120x1440 monitor into a 1920x1080 letterbox. Giving me an amazing resolution of... *_1920_* x _*520*_. also unusable.
      This is the same issue I had with the old ultrawide several years ago, which was "only" 3840x1080...
      "Showing Meta and Valve How To Do It"... Pft. QuestLink, Airlink, and SteamVR have *always* shown my desktop at the appropriate 1:1 scale.

XR4 for sure is a great great headset for VR enthusiast .. like you? :) but way toooo expensive for normal Vr market and yeah... again "big" and far away from the great idea behind bigscreen beyond making a small wearable headset with great specs too

    People may look at these hyper expensive headsets and think “ok cool but i can’t afford that right now” and that’s just the thing. The tech in those headsets may be expensive now, but they’re a glimpse into the future of what VR can bring as that tech trickles its way down into cheaper headsets as tech innovation always does. In this current moment, VR tech is the worst it’s ever going to be, and that’s especially exciting. The future holds a world of possibility for VR.

      The VR-3 was the epitome of VR headsets in 2020, and it cost $3,195. Three years later, the Aero, which is just flat out *better* as well as easier to use than the VR-3, goes on sale for $890? If the trend continues, the XR-4 is $3,995 right now. In late 2026, the successor to the aero should be better than the XR-4, easier to use than the XR-4, and go on sale for $1,090 down from $1,190! I know things don’t pan out linearly like that usually, but it gives a ballpark of where things could be! Also by then, Meta will probably be releasing the Quest 4 (likely that year even), which *will* be a competitor to that despite likely being priced substantially lower just due to how well of an all rounder it will be.

    The shoes had no grip so you literally couldnt stand with them, but against being told not to, i let go of the ring to try and… tried to grab something that wasnt really there. I smacked my head on the rail and everyone was trying to make sure I was okay, but I was just fascinated by the idea of a world that didnt really exist

    Just got word that it only has DP1.4, so it's restricted to 30PPD unless the game specifically implements Varjos SDK (which is currently zero games).
    So the Aero actually has higher PPD for consumer use cases, albeit lower FOV. Really a headscratcher that they went with DP1.4.

    For the creator economy, sure the creators may get 50% of the split, but Gumroad only takes 10% of what avatar and world creators make, not to mention Patreon takes 25 cents on direct deposit payout and 1% payout fee for PayPal on top of an at most a 12% cut for membership fees. Sure, it's nice for people to support their favorite creators in game, however, the creators earn more still through outside platforms. Hell, I think some creators even just have a donation thing so they get 100% of donations anyways, so thinking about it from a purely monetary perspective, it makes sense to support creators through the means by which we are already doing so. VRChat wants to capitalize off of how convenient it will be paying for in-game subscriptions.

      Actually, Apple is pushing the prices down. The XR-3 costs $7000 plus a subscription, needs stations for tracking and isn't a standalone device. The Vision offers higher resolution and eye-tracking navigation that is yet to be seen in the industry. And now Varjo launches the XR-4 cutting almost half the price with no subscription.

      I worry it will bring paywalled worlds, and bad conversion rates to creators from VRC's proprietary currency back into real money. I think this was certainly a decision that was made by the upper echelon of VRC, and I fully believe this will be bad for the community.

    I have been RAVING about variable focus for years and it is literally the *only* feature I’ve genuinely really wanted from a new VR headset since the technology was announced by oculus like six years ago! I am so insanely happy that this is coming out and that it’s going to come down in price soon! I’ve been saying that people keep wishlisting things like increased resolution, wider fov, lighter weight, better audio, etc, but almost none of it matters compared to the ability to focus on objects and use your eyes normally! This is the missing link between Virtual Reality and Reality Reality!

    I dislike the VRChat monetization.
    Don't get me wrong, I like the fact it's gonna be easier for creators to get paid, but I hate the implementation.
    It uses coins, which are designed like coins in pay-to-win mobile games. They're made so it's hard to judge how much something costs.
    You can also only buy them in packs, meaning you'll likely have some leftover after a purchase, meaning you'll want to buy more so they don't go to waste.
    Even if you can cash out a single coin, doing so makes you lose half it's value, thanks to the 50% cut.
    I know VRChat unfortunately can't get around the 50% cut, but they didn't have to make the value weird, they could've made 1 coin $0.01 USD, and they could've made it so you could buy individual coins!
    It just feels so scummy IMO, and I can this becoming another Roblox situation, since those exact concerns are issues people have with Robux.

    I think adding monitization to vrchat will be a bsd thing. The game is already plauged by shady characters and half assed strip clubs. Adding real money directly into the game i believe will worsen these issues and create new ones like, paywalling features that have no reason to be paywalled, pollarize communities by those who donated and those who havent, and scams.

For example, my eyes find it difficult to adjust to Quest 3 even with prescription lenses, and I also notice some PWM-like flickering which causes a bit of an eyestrain. Not sure if Visor will be able to sort it all out. Also, zoom-in feature in passthrough is on my wishlist, but no idea who and how could implement that.

    Steam Link and the Vive Ultimate trackers are the *big* things for me; I have a Quest 2 that I've been using as a PC headset via Virtual Desktop because most of my VR games are on my PC, but I often suffered from *huge* lag spikes; which in a game like say, Blade and Sorcery, allowed an attack I would've otherwise successfully blocked to *hit* me. I honestly think having to connect my Quest 2 to my PC in such a roundabout way might be the main problem there, and if Valves Steam Link *fixes* that problem, I'm honestly *down* for it because that's really the *big* reason my Quest 2 has been sitting collecting dust for so long.
    As for the Vive Ultimate trackers, I *really* can't wait until those things officially support *all* headsets; I've been wanting full body tracking for *ages* , not just for the boost in immersion, but also to make my VR sessions much more of a *workout* by engaging much *more* of my body. Blade and Sorcery's my *favorite* VR game, and being able to use more of my body to fight will *definitely* make fighting in it more of a workout.
