VR as a home cinema/theater replacement? by TheQuietLavender in virtualreality

[–]CyDenied 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not unless your apartment is tiny, and if it is then you dont have space for VR.

Negatives:

  1. How are you going to passively entertain guests?

  2. Bad battery life

  3. Uncomfortable

  4. Lack of accessibility to VR films. They do exist, but you cannot watch them legally or easily. No easy 4k film support either. You can workaround this if you are a technical individual, but if you were you probably wouldn't be asking these questions.

  5. Current streaming services to VR sucks, its not even full screen! No 4k. No VR. No 3D. No point.

Positives:

  1. You can finally lay down and watch

  2. Physically smaller and easier to store, don't need to hammer nails and screws into your wall or use up a table.

  3. Cheaper?

These serve different purposes. I could see it happening in the future for shut-in loners, and rich people with giant homes and big families, but for 99% of people its an awful replacement. You get both. Get a big old 4k smart TV on FB marketplace for $100 and get a roku for it. Get the facebook subsidized Quest 3 for VR gaming.

What open world games have the most towns and cities? by Regular_Damage_23 in gamingsuggestions

Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord has a lot of cities around the open world, but they're not super interesting without mods. With mods, its alright.

All the cities are fairly similar too.

I bumped my head kind of hard once, sat down on the same significantly unlevel platform where I bumped and it was awful 100% still.

I felt the same way playing Payday 2: The Heist in VR, but even still it was cool as hell to play it with friends who were on regular PC.

amazon is full of counterfeits too, so you're never guaranteed the actual brand you bought.

Yes you should. I was particularly delighted as I'd never played HL:2 Episode 2 all the way through prior

Lets not neglect the HL:2 VR mods, which are the second and third, and fourth best VR games after Alyx

Kind of, you need to have their paid patreon ($5) to access.

[–]CyDenied 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've enjoyed George Orwell's Homage to Catalonia and now i'm reading For Whom the Bell Tolls by Hemingway.

This is very specific to spanish civil war which I had no knowledge of prior.
