The Quest 1 was and is my first headset ever, it took my life savings and a lot of family members to help me buy it, some months later a better and cheaper version of it got released 💀 I still feel scammed to this day and it sucks that the Quest 1 will be completely obsolete
that's sadly how it is with current day tech, one day you'll have the best device currently out and the next there's 20 new products that do it better
Save up for the Apple Vision pro for many years, Apple doesn’t just kill devices. Some of their 20 year old Macs still work great.
Me2 dude, I paid 800 for Quest 1. Then, a few weeks later, they dropped Quest 2, and now I can't play really anything on it 😂😂
i feel you man same here
Similar thing happened to me with my quest one.
It still pisses me off to this day.
The day my headset got to my house like two days later the quest 2 was announced
We need a way to choose our social VR spaces by age man. We make these choices all the time in real life.
For that to work the company running the VR space would have to verify users age.
Maybe some spaces for over 18s that require ID could work.
@@Toby-Wan-Kenobi No thanks for those IDs, there are plenty of ways that already exist to separate social VR spaces by age without IDs.
@@Monitice i agree, but without active or community moderation, squeakers will always find a way into where they shouldn't be
@@Moniticehow? I thought it was either privacy breach or not secure enough?
@@Monitice What's wrong with the ID method?
I just see the whole Quest thing as: You paid for a thing. No matter how old it is, you still have it, it still works, and you should be able to use it. Maybe it doesn't connect to the storefront and can only be used as a PCVR set, but it should still *work*. I can understand shutting off services for an out of date product, but the device should still, at the very least, work as it did with its final major patch.
The Quest was always e-waste-in-waiting due to it's non user-replaceable battery.
@@zig131 And I should be able to use it until the battery goes. And anything is user-replaceable with the right tools and knowhow.
Yeah, my Wii still works even though it's been completely abandoned for years. But I can still play it and all the game discs I have, just can't go online.
@@hyenaedits3460 when steam dies one day, so does all your games.
@@SINfromPL and thats why i hate using steam. (not just that but also because anytime i wanna play one i have to wait ages for steam to open and update as well, UGH)

Hi Thrill! Thanks for answering my QOTW and apologies it was long XD
I just wanted a professional VR user, like you, opinion on Metas "move" to PCVR. Performance wise makes sense, and so does making more apps for Meta users, of course steam VR will be available no doubt. I am very excited and thrilled (no pun indented) for the future of Meta. Thank you so much for answering my QOTW. Have a nice week!
-Much love, ArcticWolf
Thanks for putting in the question! I really appreciate it and I really love answering and giving opinions on QOTW. Thanks for being around! Much love
@@ThrillSeekerVR hi should I sub?
So happy about Roblox, might actually get kids out of VRChat and into somewhere (slightly) safer.
True
Roblox would definitely be a safer place for them and roblox is also in general a really good platform for games already probably one of the better companies to try to compete with vrchat
Definitely only slightly lol
@@shujihar2410 roblox is the safehaven for pedophiles its not good.
Slightly by like a sliver
Wait, I'm confused. Why would the Quest 1 become a paperweight after official support ends? Wouldn't it continue working as always, but without updates? Surely Meta wouldn't brick devices.
You would not believe what meta would do lol.
Edit: Why the frick is this at 101 likes.
That's what I would think unless issues are caused with lack of updates
I’m guessing you can play your games but won’t be able to play any multiplayer from the sounds of it.
My Oculus Go was basically bricked shortly after support for it stopped
Other companies have done that before, like Samsung with their S3 and the 4.3 update being the nail in the coffin.
The quest 2 might get longer support but it’s important to remember that the quest 2 is being sold today. It’s not about the first buyer getting appropriate support; it’s about the last buyer getting appropriate support
Yeah exactly, this is why I'm holding off buying one until the Quest 3 comes out, 'cause I damn well know they're gonna stop supporting it way too soon as we're already going into year 3 of its existence.
@@firalia at that point you might want to look into other headsets
@@geoshark12 Eh possibly. You can't really beat the Quest's price though.
Real, but. On black friday last year I did see a quest 1 being sold at walmart. Only 1 quest ome, but it was there
@@geoshark12 Bigscreen has an amazing product.
I bought my Quest 1 in July as a collective birthday present from my family members, after 1-2 months of having it they suddenly discontinued selling. I don't have spare money to get the upgrade so I've been stuck with a dying headset, which is so frustrating since I've forked a lot of money into making this little guy a comfortable and fun experience.
Exactly, that's the scam. All of the hype of the Quest platform as Cheap VR ignores the small fortune people spend trying to make it a tolerably comfortable experience if they don't just leave it in the box in a closet instead. The Quest platform has been a downgrade in value from the Original Rift for PCVR, and almost no one who becomes an enthusiast will remain content with stand alone VR.
That's a bummer
I’m glad you said something, the exact same thing happened to me to. I bought the headset in July, then was kicking myself when the quest 2 came out a couple months later. I feel your pain and wish Meta had at least refunded quest one users, but instead Im stuck with an old outdated headset.
its been out for a while
That's what happened to me with my Oculus Go. I got it in late 2019, and they stopped supporting it in 2020.
Damn. I was actually really really hyped for the mojo lens. As someone who wears contacts daily it was a perfect idea.
The vast majority of Quest owners didn't learn of the Quest until early 2020 (Covid Lockdowns), and it was difficult to attain from 02/2020 - 06/2020. So for most users, Quest 1 is only 2.5 years old.
I understand the end of support for the Oculus Quest but getting rid of basic social features like making a party has no excuse, you’re telling me I can’t play games that the Quest 1 and Quest 2 can both handle in a party with my friends, it’s a shame and knowing Meta they won’t give anything to any remaining Quest 1 users to at least make it somewhat worth having
Thanks for featuring my LabWorks trailer!
It was very well made! Good work
@@ThrillSeekerVR runoff is coming soon :)
Still on Quest 1, still on legacy Oculus account. It never forced me to switch, and still giving me firmware updates.
I use it as a PCVR headset, that OLED is too good for anything LCD to impress me.
COLORS > resolution.
This is pretty punk
Agree 100%! The Q1 is faltering in terms of standalone performance and is heavy, but PCVR is great with it at native resolution and without a wire.
I hope that quest 1-s PCVR capabilities will not be removed. we have a ton of those at school and it would be sad if they became useless
You got VR headsets at your school?!
I can't believe the original Quest is only 4 years old, it feels like it's been around for so much longer, it's a shame Meta likely won't open it up in any way, there could be tons of life left in them, feels like a waste to just make them essentially useless.
Quest 1 will always have a place in my heart. It was the headset that introduced me to VR and it was my first vr headset. The VR industry right now would be so much different if the quest was not made. Sure VR had a very small but dedicated community before the quest, but the quest made VR more wide stream. RIP quest 1.
Same for me. It kinda got me through the pandemic... Psychologically mostly intact.
Surprisingly Quest is the most affordable as a gaming device and pack full features than anything before or after it
Yeah, the quest 1 is the thing that got me into vr and got me through the pandemic, it sucks that they're just going to drop it, so much nostalgia from it.
@@jaxmax9618 Drop what?? I heard you can still use it to play apps, games, and online
@@jaxmax9618 I mean it makes sense. Older software holds back developers for the new headsets. It is what it is.
ok so the end screen on this video was a strait up banger. I love the work you do on your videos and I love how you are constantly improving them. you do great work man. keep it up 👍
I love the outro song. Keeps me watching till the end. Always a quality production.
Amazing episode brother! I felt like I was watching a Hollywood production! Transitions so smooth couldn’t stop watching.

Hi thrill! I have been watching you since 2019, just wanted to say hi since I’m 47 minutes after you uploaded!
Hello! Thanks for all the support I really appreciate it. Super glad to have you around! Been a wild 4 years… onto the next wild 4 years! Thanks again and much love Molly!! :D
It'd be cool to see a video on the history and future of AR wear. What are the most promising AR developments and companies?

I still have have original Quest and I've always looked forward to the idea of upgrading to the Quest 2 and passing my old headset to a friend so we could play together. The fact that that's no longer an option almost makes me not want to buy the Quest 2 at all. If I've already missed half of its lifespan and they're just going to brick the last gen a couple years after a new one comes out, what is even the point of getting a Quest 2. What's preventing them from discontinuing service the moment the Quest 3 drops. Buying a VR headset is not a an inexpensive investment and I hate the idea of it not being fully usable in a year or two.
the quest one was my first ever vr headset i loved it and i still love it am sad to see it go...
Hey man! I'd just like to say, even though I have an old HTC Vive I actually bought an Oculus Go a long time ago to have something light and portable way back then, now that I'm beaming across countries I've actually found the need for it again and that snippet about the Go being unlocked was huge, thanks for that!
This one was quite interesting! :D
im always very thrilled when theres a new video in this channel lol
As a Quest 1 user, it's disappointing to see that they're dropping social features and I don't really get the decision frankly. I get stopping updates, that always happens, but I don't see why they'd drop social features specifically. I use mine with Virtual Desktop as a wireless PCVR headset and it's still going strong, so I'll continue doing that for the foreseeable future.
And I'm honestly not sure when I'll upgrade, I'm really just waiting for a headset that does everything my Quest can, but is significantly more compact and comfortable. Even after doing upgrades like the Vive strap and VRCover interface, comfort is still my biggest issue with my Quest.
QOTW maybe?!
How far off do you think we are to having gloves and electrodes suits for our VR set ups?
8:00 This isn't a meme this is just a personal attack
Loved the vid! What do you think about cloud streaming in vr, such as a stadia vr headset? Could slimmer headsets use this to their advantage?
I use my Quest almost every day. This news does upset me quite a bit, but I was looking for a reason to upgrade.
I was looking for a reason to upgrade aswell, I don’t know why I’m as mad/sad as I am about it, past maybe because it was my first proper VR experience, or because of how new and exiting the idea was when it came out, probably a mix of both.
@@chilledburrito I understand it is my first and still only proper VR headset. My mom gave me her old gear a couple of years before, and it was an excellent way to get used to VR before I took the dive and bought my Quest.😁
The first of anything has such an emotional attachment.

@TheGamingGuide Most Probably.
@@Just_a_commenter There will always be at least a few. Flood may have been an overestimation, but there will be a few lol
It reached its end on the official front. It's still a damn good PCVR headset.. you can't beat that OLED screen when it comes to horror games.
I hope they don't somehow scuff pcvr support. That's really all I ever used the headset for in the first place
@@prodn0body I mean they did stop releasing updates. On top of that. The dev of virtual desktop doesn't plan on ending support. The Oculus go was rooted as well when they ended support. So it will be interesting what will happen to the quest 1
@@Dtr146 in what way is oculus go rooted?
@@RogerEssigArtist go to the Oculus go subreddit. they have a guide there.
@@Dtr146 oh, ha, I misunderstood what you meant by rooted. aussie slang for 'fucked' but yes, I found the guide you mentioned, cheers
As a quest 1 user, I don't fully expect full support, but do not hinder our ability to exist, yeah the natural evolution leads to pcvr, a lot of virtual desktop vrchat over the last month, but I really don't want them to treat this as if it's the 3ds of the modern era, (the version getting abandoned by Nintendo) It's just hard knowing such an important piece of vr history, to me and many others might just be nothing more than a mention in the empire of vr meta is building. Forgetting who helped them build it.
Felt
as someone who can look over to a bookshelf and see my collection of physical media video games I've maintained throughout my life, the sadness of this era of digital rights management fills me with sorrow.
Tuesday has been improved drastically
Awesome video! What game are you playing in the very beginning of the video?
Everytime I hear that BANGER track you put in the intro, I already know that i'm in for a banger video.
Do you think an update to Quest 2 will ever bring support for background applications to run like a built in twitch overlay to see chat or stream right from the headset to twitch?
I don't think it has enough RAM to do that and run games
thats hardware not software
Well, the head set clearly already has overlays with the menus as well as the casting already being a thing. As for the ram. I don't see how it would take up more space than the casting system already would.
that’s possible with openxr as long as running multiple apps at once is possible on quest which I don’t know.
It would be really nice to at least be able to have 1 or 2 browser tabs open while in a game, have a wiki or video open.
you know what, im just gonna say it
Roblox in VR is fun af
Glad to see you cover it bud been preaching about this for a few weeks
Friggin love Tuesday Newsday!
I started playing roblox in 2007. I was the 350,000th ish account. I would cry if I got to see some of my childhood places that I spent time as a kid in VR. Roblox would make an ABSOLUTE dent in the VR game space. There is something for everyone on there. Everything from fleshed out shooters to kids games.
Want phantom forces in VR. Heck Starcape too so i have something that even remotely looks like No Man's Sky
Yeah, the Vr Hands experience in Roblox is pretty well done. If they can invest into making games like that officially supported, it'd really put a fire under Meta's ass.
Always love the videos man, keep up the good work❤
The IVAS is still in the works but it's gonna be game changing once they work out the kinks if they do of course. seeker I can tell you the amount of features that's in those goggles is more than the helmet that master chef wears is crazy cool
8:00
That meme brake is literally me all the time.
Even after the Quest 1 support drop. Doesn't the quest 1 still work as a pc vr headset? its not like the headset will brick or become completely unusable.
I just got a quest 2 this Christmas to replace my quest 1, kinda feels like I got it just in time.
Love to see you do a video on the quest 2 and issues with linking to pcvr.
I know I'm not the only one out there with issues. Virtual desktop works great, but sometimes you need a cabled link
Wow, that contact lense tech looked amazing! I really hope they are just going to go slow til the market picks up rather than quit it entirely.
I guess it's really time to start saving up for a new headset to replace my quest 1, I do still love using the OLED displays regularly the only thing I really missed out on was a higher refresh rate
Same here, I am not getting another Oculus headset though. I'm tired of having to use Link.
@@uptightsl Have you tried Virtual Desktop? I only got a Quest 2 because of how well Virtual Desktop worked.
@@uptightsl I get that, I do occasionally use airlink though which is super nice in a big space
Why would you buy another quest if they will just turn it off in a few years?
I would never give them my money... It seems to me like a scam.
@@thimblemunch24 Why would you buy a new smartphone when they stop providing support for it every 5ish years?
7 years now on my Vive. I expect nothing, but it still gets support.
how are the controllers
@@zyonss so so, I had to replace them 2 times. 2 link cords. But the HMD still works like new.
@@gopherchucksgamingnstuff2263 plus, down the line, you can easily upgrade to the Knuckles Controllers
@@DiamondDepthYT Yeah I know. My friend has them. These are not dead yet
@@zyonss I've had mine for 5 years and there's not been any issues with them yet
4:18 I agree with Boz, my latency is anywhere from around 5-15ms with a Wi-Fi 6 router.
As someone who bought the quest 1 days before the release of the quest 2, I use it for Steam VR and would like to continue using it. This news shocked me.
Thrill gotta be my most favorite person to watch ever. Keep on trucking! TUESDAY NEWSDAYYYYYYY
I really want to upgrade from my Quest to something that is preferably pc based since the oculus air connection has been incredibly shaky for me lately. I still think an Index would be the best option, but I still feel like maybe I should hold off on it since Valve is supposedly still working on a new vr headset.
Wait, wouldn't it be cheaper to just buy a link cable? My 16ft long one was $20 on Amazon! Consider that instead
@@biankah That was one of the first things I purchased when I got my headset. The USB port on it won't hold a stable connection to my pc anymore.
Hello Thrill, I absolutely love your videos and was actually hoping to ask something for question of the week.
As a VR enthusiast who is looking to upgrade from a Vive Pro 2, do you think buying the Varjo Aero now is worth it or waiting for some of the new headsets that are slated to be released this year? Pimax has always excited me but i'm cautious to believe anything they say before seeing a review copy of the 12k.
Ooh Cabby made it on Thrills meme break!!
Cabby is awesome
I got quest 1 and I hate how I got burned with quest 2 launching so soon. I mostly played vrchat but now even that doesn't work well crashing when joining a big world or even a small world with more than 5 people and since my pc is too low-end I can't even use that. It killed my VR enthusiasm.
Quest 2 already exists
Well it'll look like shit, but you can actually lower the resolution in SteamVR. Also obviously it's not the same, but VRChat at least can actually be played in desktop mode, and it performs a _lot_ better.
Did you get the 2 year warranty? If so you can break a part like the controller and bring it in and claim the warranty and you will get a quest 2.
@@lucasonfire_5214 First that would be immoral. Second, no they just would either deny it or send you a refurbished guest 1.
@@TheWildcat_YT First, who cares if you think it's immoral or not, you are getting a horrible deal with your quest now not able to be used. Second, they would not deny it as it is a 100% warranty, and they will give you a quest 2 (as long as the monetary value is the same or you may have to pay a bit more) as they simply do not sell quest 1's anymore. I know this because this is how I got my quest 2.
Roblox on quest will hopefully lower the number of kids in VRchat. Plus will increase VR sales. Seems like a good thing overall.
Apart from the terrible moderation on Roblox.
Roblox is an absolute money-sink.
Almost every game is designed to be pay-to-win.
Kids play VRChat because it is 100% free and they are on an even footing with everyone/their friends.
@@zig131 in Roblox it’s up to each creator if their game is p2w.
@@Toby-Wan-Kenobi Sure. But it seems like the popular/top-ranked/top-listed ones are.
Clearly the company is going to bury the ones that don't make them any money and recommend the ones that do.
@@zig131 Roblox doesn't have to do that, most experiences that don't earn money will bury themselves because ..they don't earn money
I'm one of those Quest 1 users that got it way back in 2019 and that is using it until this day. Honestly I'm not too surprised they're cutting it off, though I would have expected it to continue working in a slimmed-down version until games stop supporting it altogether. 4 years of support is okay-ish considering the Quest 2 dropped in 2020 and brought in a lot of upgrades. For me, at least, it's fine, since I tend to switch tech by skipping at least a single generation of it - I'm probably going to get a Quest 3 for Christmas 2023 to replace my Quest 1. I'm a bit sad if I can't hand it off to someone else to enjoy or at least try out VR, as I think it's a great headset despite its limitations. Also, don't entirely agree that it's not good enough as a standalone headset in current times - I still use it, though mostly for VR fitness :D
HEYO thanks for putting me in the meme break. Much love bro
as a very bad roblox developer, roblox coming to quest sounds cool
I still rocking my quest 1
APART FROM THE AWESOME VIDEOS YOU RELEASE AS USUAL,
I'm kinda confused about the intro, who foam the milk when you are making what looks like espresso shot 😅😅!
Still a really BIG FAN OF YOUR CHANNEL
as someone who plays vr on the opposite side of the house from the router, a direct connection to my pc for vr would change the way i play vr forever tbh
Cable and a pulley system may be good for the meantime.
@@Toby-Wan-Kenobi i have concrete walls/ceilings so i cant drill into anything and i dont want to risk paint coming off of anything :/
Intel's announcement only effects a situation where you are connected to the internet over Wifi.
If you have an Ethernet cable between your PC and your router, then it won't make any difference.
All they're doing is letting your PC be connected via Wifi to your router while also hosting a Wifi hotspot for your headset (and possibly bridging them?).
It's still a bodge and inferior to one or both of those connections being wired.
@@zig131 well even if your pc is connected via ethernet the connection is still bottlenecked by your headsets connection to your router
@@HenryScreee Sure - if your router is not in the same room as the headset and/or is used by other devices.
But that issue is best solved by a second router or wireless access point Ethernet-ed to your PC.
This dual wifi mode won't replace that ideal setup.
And using a wifi hotspot was already possible - they haven't said they have made that better.
The hotspot mode of wireless adaptors is a bonus feature which they can do to an acceptable level. But dedicated hardware will always perform better - even when it comes to latency.
Oculus Quest Support change was invitiable, but atleast do it as on the go and unlock the os. BUt i guess meta likes to produce e-waste
quest 1 user here. it’s getting dark.
The poor support Meta provides for their VR products is why I switched to Steam and decoupled from their ecosystem. I'm not buying a new headset every couple of years since they could just walk away from VR at any time. They don't seem to care about their customers beyond what they can get out of them right now.
That's true but basically only applies to Standalone.
The Rift CV1 - Meta's oldest headset - still works great.
They can only justify abandoning Quest as - due to the non-user-replaceable battery - they will all be e-waste in a few years if they are not already.
True. My OG Vive (backup) will still work if I need it to. It's 5 years old.
Hey thrill love your videos, cant wait for that pico neo 4 review
Really hope they improve the vr systems already in place since in it’s current form playing in vr mode is incredibly limiting
It’ll be interesting to see how Rec Room will be able to handle Roblox should it officially come to quest. If enough worlds support a VR mode it could destroy rec room.
Without traditional VR support Roblox will not be able to get even close to Rec Room in terms of VR popularity
Whats the Kayak experience thing you keep showing? Wouldn't mind chilling on that for a few hours just cruising
1:27 YOOOO, THAT'S MY GAME! I MADE THAT GAME!
Also, minor correction, Roblox has actually had VR support since very early on. being added in late 2016.
yooooo thats your game! you made that game!
I really hope Meta won't control us with VR as it's doing with Socials
Meta isn't a person and I'm pretty sure Twitter is still bigger than Facebook and Instagram
@@Fancy2209Real it’s not nearly the size of either
Meta really isn't, they hold a majority share yes, but when it comes to HARDWARE they haven't tried to stop competition, it's just that no one wants to compete, not Google, not Microsoft, not even Valve seem interesting in touching meta
@@Fancy2209Real facebook and instagram is much bigger than twitter
@@Fancy2209Real I am sooooo glad you are wrong twitter is the dumpster fire of social media
I’m done with Quest. I’m all in on PSVR 2.
R.I.P. OG Quest! I’m one of those using it still paired with my PC.
I have a rift s but not sure if it still applies to any other oculus vr products, even tho you did mention the original rift but you gotta remember theres also a rift s. I just dont like the whole signing up for meta by force so we could use our vr
I'm kind of confused why the Quest 1 would become unusable for PCVR as you mentioned at 5:39.
Wouldn't that just continue to work irregardless of updates?
Also I'm rather glad they're tearing out all those "social features" if I'm honest.
Is there any word on how long the store for the Quest 1 will continue to be available?
Edit: wrong timestamp.
Ask Reddit, they know everything
My bet would be that the Quest 1 itself would be capable of using PCVR, but the Oculus desktop app will likely stop supporting it. If I'm right, you could still use it as long as you make sure your Oculus app can never update. And even then, the internet is full of people who hate facebook so they may take it into their own hands anyway.
He didn't say that.
@@chibi_bb9642 Good thing I've never used the Oculus desktop app for my PCVR adventures then :P

And to those people, yeah it actually does kind of suck that a headset that could be used indefinitely [...] is pretty much just getting the chopping block after this year".
While he does not say it outright, it is heavily implied with this choice of words. Otherwise, why talk about it getting the chopping block in the context of PCVR?
Meta still requires indie devs to support the Quest 1 in order to get on app lab. Hopefully this discontinued support changes that policy cause it's holding back lots of devs.
To explain why the PSVR2 probably won't work on PC, it's mainly because the tracking data will be in a proprietary formate meant only for the PS5
The thing about the PSVR1 is all the tracking was done externally with lights on the headset and controllers, so it was easy to reverse engineer that, honestly "reverse engineer" is a bit of a stretch, it was more so just tracking the lights
But the PSVR2 uses inside out tracking with infrared light, so we could at best externally tracking the controllers, but the headset tracks itself, so you'd need to be able to get and use that tracking data
And this all assumes Sony doesn't try and actively stop the use of the headset on PC, they could easily make the headset check for a PS5 and shut itself down if it doesn't detect one
what vrchat world was that in the meme break? It looks awesome
Ah finally a tuesday newsday episode on a tuesday
Got you!
@@ThrillSeekerVR I've marked it down on the calandar along with rare eclipses and celestial alignments.
Yeah, this is making me question my loyalty to my Quest 2. I didn't spend so much money for it to become completely phased out in less than 5 years of lifetime. That's ridiculous.
I should definitely tryout that kayak VR game.
The waffle house has found its new host
It's awesome to see you mention labworks
Hey @ThrillSeeker! For someone who does not have yet a VR headset ( but tried it) and does not have a new PC or Console, what would you recommend : PS5 + PSVR2, Gaming PC + what headset, other options ?
7:59 this is me except i have no friends and i just awkwardly sit and run around without joining any worlds for 3 hours before i give in and get off
What’s your coffee mission and tools called? I lowkey wanna see a set up of that
I got an index recently and gave my rift cv1 to one of my best friends, thank god it’s not getting the treatment that the quest is
Another game to hold the kids on Christmas back from invading the other games? sounds good to me
Your intro has nothing to do with VR and I loooove it each time it comes up 😄
No way a Tuesday newsday on a Tuesday no way
7:52 just gave me nostalgia
Army Augmented Reality would work best with coordination with other signal intelligence support infrastructure. If information is exchanged much faster than a radio transmission without being intercepted by opposition, situational awareness changes in ways unheard of since the advent of radios in the military.
Like the radio and telegram before it, it will definitely have their own weaknesses.
i think that the future from vr gadgets will be little computers and the glasses just receive and send the information, reducing the weight and size of it.
