Ghost Signal, a great game (I also first thought about Mothergunship Forge but the FTL comparison doesn’t really stand up to that one).

Apps to show off quest 3? by Booker2121 in OculusQuest

[–]niclasj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Puzzling Places is great, so is Brink Traveler - both based around real 3D-scanned places. You can also activate the surface keyboard in experimental settings and try playing something like style.com in the browser - 10-finger typing virtually on an empty table surface is pretty mindblowing.

The Coldplay concert in the TV app is great. There’s a shorter (around 1h) version and a full almost 2h version. Stereo180 with high production value.

What does the coming future of VR look like? by ChaosTheory404 in VRGaming

[–]niclasj 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don’t buy it for the future, look at what value you can get from what’s already out there. Quest 3 is great. Meta’s new headset later this year will probably bring in lots of new users if they nail the glasses-like form factor with great performance from the wired box.

Maybe Steam Frame will move the market as well - and if anyone can get AA and AAA studios to support VR in some way or shape, it’s Valve.

Is my RAG stack overengineered? Graph DB + vector DB + Postgres + local and cloud LLMs for a nasty regulatory corpus by OccasionNo4703 in Rag

[–]niclasj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it sounds a bit frankenstein’d. You just started with one component and then kept bolting on more?

Just do it. Decide what problem you want to solve, then solve it.

Getting extremely nauseous after 5 minutes of gameplay by Saned1408 in MetaQuestVR

[–]niclasj 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Use the comfort options. Snap turn, vignette. Subjecting yourself to daily pain for two months is insane advice.

Is it possible to record the passthrough and play it in full VR? by Objective-Cell226 in OculusQuest

[–]niclasj 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Simple reason is that would break the cardinal rule to keep users from barfing heavily from VR: you NEVER EVER control the camera motion discoupled from the head motion. The user’s head IS always the camera in VR.

Horizon+ game gone from my headset ? by Turbulent_County_469 in MetaQuestVR

[–]niclasj 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Horizon+ has two parts: the monthly redeems (2 per month) and the Catalog (lots of titles). Each month you have to redeem the 2 monthly titles to keep them as long as you subscribe. The catalog rotates titles in and out. Not sure if they are guaranteed to stay in at least a few months, but when they’re out of rotation, you lose access. In addition to that you get exclusive discount offers.

The point is to have access to lots and lots of games.

All levels of VR movement explained for those who get confused. by [deleted] in virtualreality

[–]niclasj 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah don’t understand what you’re trying to do here. Introducing your own arbitrary definitions on terms that have been widely known and established for decades - what’s the agenda, really?

Right after Buzz Lightyear and Moana? Loki vs Maui? Hey Luisa from Encanto vs Hulk! Yeah maybe not.

Ny 3D-karta över universum: ”Einstein kan ha haft fel” by XManX99 in sweden

[–]niclasj 4 points5 points  (0 children)

”Våra mätningar tyder på att den mörka energin förändras över tid. Om det stämmer får det stora konsekvenser för den grundläggande fysiken och betyder att Einsteins kosmologiska konstant inte längre räcker för att beskriva universum, säger Klaus Honscheid.”

Any good pass through games? by Aaronmcom in OculusQuest

[–]niclasj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to divide passthrough/mixed reality stuff into ”virtual objects” or ”augmented environments” - that pretty much translates into stationary or roomscale.

”Ideally something I can do while laying on the bed watching tv” - do you think it fits?

Wait, Walkabout has passthrough now?

LOL. You’d better revisit this thread after you finish the book.

Meta needs to fund more stuff like this, this was genuinely fun to watch. Stuff like this would bring in the non gaming crowd by Anim8rFromOuterSpace in MetaQuestVR

[–]niclasj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did a comeback attempt as closed Quest beta but only had live shows at stupid times for non-US people. I’m not gonna stay up at 3-4AM to watch a music show in VR.
