The Rift or Rift S? Sure!

If you happen to have some VR Arcade near you, try it out - that's possibly easiest way to see what's all the fuss about.

I've done VR before.  I'm not saying its not immersive, but frankly it's like an uncanny valley type thing.  Like being immersed in motion without feeling the motion.  One of the things I hate about motion controls.  Lifting a rock or hitting a ball or swinging a sword.  The weight is not there and thus it completely throws me off balance.

That's not even a part of the topic. I don't pay you anything, which is besides the point.

Anyone buys what they want, when they want.

Then you're selling yourself short if you're willing to pay more for less.

I'm not even remotely upset that you're not buying the headset. It's the fact that you've spent a lot more money combined in a year, each year at that, more so than the headset itself, yet an instant $400 price tag scares you off, that's the only part that actually perplexes me. Nothing to be upset over, just perplexed. 

No, it doesn't bother me that you buy an insane amount of stuff (You do tell us this a lot of the time, discord or on here via lists, and have done for years now, not even taking issue with that).

Your lists don't, but I have seen them irk others recently and in the past (I mean, if I annoy some users on here, surely you can't see yourself doing the same with the listing)

The world was never perfect to begin with, we can never hope to even reach what we think is perfection, but that doesn't excuse scummy shit from being scummy and wanting it to be done away with. Supporting it just adds to the problem and ignoring/being non-caring, while feeding directly into it does make one a part of that problem, whether they like it or not. You don't believe in them, but ever so many do, and they do actually produce results and show the wrong doings as a result of pointing out wrong that has been done. Voting with your wallet doesn't do jack unless you're a part of the bigger crowd, that I believe is entirely flawed and pointless, but boycotting, actually trying to form a group to stand against an opposing company?, I don't see that as pointless, because it caries direct action and a clear message. Just not buying something doesn't.

No one hired you to be PR or become the guy that "fixes" someone's issues, no one's hired anyone to do that specific sort of thing, but taking actual action as a group can lead to sorting out issues.

I am a consumer just like you, only I believe in action and standing up against scummy practices. I do not want my consumer rights taken away, step by step, and I'm not going to be a non-caring guy, who will eventually bitch when he loses so much in the long-run. I'd rather do something about it now, rather than later. 

Also, no, you do not need "loyalty" in order to seek change. That's not how that works. 

I dont get why they made this.They have just release(or going to, cant quite remember) the Oculus Quest, and this seems to be an (mostly) inferior product.

Why not focus on games and give some years for the tech to evolve, so that you can launch a new gen with actual improvements and features?

Still.... it feels like the wrong move.Quest is the move in the right direction, even if it desperately needs more power.They could have used the next 3 or 4 years to develop exclusive games to make their platforms more attractive.And with the passage of time, the tech would evolve enough so that an Oculus Rift 2 would make for an appealing proposition.

Thats my take on it.This just feels weird, even if its tecnically targeting a different audience.

Is there still a mess of cables attached?

To replace the old Rift for PC gamers.

Less production costs than the old version, same price... and more room for further price reductions.
