That’s what we were doing actually. There is one...we’ve been using it for weeks..Habam has admittedly reacted a bit overexcited lately. Understandable but yeah, I can see why someone could be annoyed by it. That said, why does everybody click on those threads then?!
imho it’s totally understandable that people truly excited about this tech, more than about anything that had happened to gaming in the last decades, would want to try to tell people about it. We’re just meaning it well...its sooo difficult with VR because no one understands unless he has tried it...it’s just the fact that discussions on the internet are usually pretty useless, because people react differently than how they would react in real life. It’s scientifically proven that arguments on the net lead to nothing, so yeah....you’re probably right. Less might be more, since people are too stubborn and won’t understand unless the get the chance to try it anyway.

Just a bit . The guy is all talk about nothing else but VR. I know I talk about PC here and there, but I like to talk about games myself. He seems completely focussed on nothing but VR and VR alone.
People click on threads to see what they are about. There are times when I click on a thread to see what's going on, and times where I read, but don't comment in them. People are curious by nature, and some are even led to comment to what they find.
I can understand their excitement. I was completely blown away by Riot dabbling with AR and their AR drake they showed off during last years League championship tournament. They even showed of player statues in AR, as well as the map they were playing on. Even though I'm blown away by it, not everyone is, and I totally understand that. What I think is annoying is when we have one group that thinks one medium is the future above all over, and goes on to force it down everyone's throats like it's gospel. I think AR has a place just as much as VR, but the VR fans on here are cock sure that VR is for gaming, and AR purely for other aspects, but not for gaming, almost as if they feel AR is not fun or suitable for them (even though both devices can work in multiple fields and co-exist).
It's a bit odd as to why people have to try it to even breath a word about it. People on here don't game on PC, but that hasn't stopped people talking about the platform, or past experiences. I know what death must feel like, I've seen it happen around me, yet I don't have that taste for wanting to try it out, just like there are plenty of foods I don't want tot ry, simply based on texture, touch, smell and taste. We can understand things in multiple ways, not just by only using your hands (which some people on this site believe is the only way to know something about an object).
I just feel that it's better to keep the VR topics within a megathread, so then everyone that wants to talk about it, can do so in there. It's why we PC folk mostly keep our news topics (besides me when it comes to some new game releases, or games not being published via the sites news section).
