I really wish people would treat the headset like a camera when they are streaming/shooting a video. It's beyond difficult to appreciate any footage when your head moves frantically around and rushing to explain what you see

Yes - totally agree. It's a hard habit to break, being in VR and looking around like we naturally would. I know I need to work on that even more. It hard to begin with, cause I'm a naturally "moving" communicator. So I do need to try to stop doing that when talking about the game while in VR... LOL.... thanks for the reminder!

Actually, I am planning to buy the Quest 3 this month. However, the issue is not about money; the Quest 3 has not been officially launched in India. We Indians are feeling very disappointed with Mark. After hearing that the Quest 3 was launching, we expected it to be available in India, but Mark has not launched it here. Why hasn’t he launched it in India? Truthfully, if he had really thought that this technology should reach all people, he would have given it to everyone... but he didn’t do that. He believes that money is important, so he’s launched this technology in places where he can get money. That’s where he’s making a profit.

Yeah, I'm VERY bummed that you can't get a Quest 3 in India! I hope that Meta and Zuck want to have it available there, and probably some international red tape keeping it from happening or something. Not sure. And it very well could be that they don't see enough profit for the costs to get it available in some other countries, but I believe that will change soon. They really do want the headset and Meta ecosystem to be as global as possible in the long run. Fingers crossed you get it there soon. thanks for the comment, my friend!

I'm afraid to get VR games from the epic store, because the epic store has no meaningful way to connect a VR headset to the program in question. I have meta-brand headsets. They don't activate with non-meta/non-steam games, as there's nothing bridging that connection. Ah, the unrealVR mod, that'd work.

“ Toxic positivity” is NOT a thing . Uninformed and inexperienced people stating their opinions as facts IS toxic though lol . VR still needs a userbase , most has to be centered toward new users , adults don’t adapt to VR as easily as kids . Meta is spending to mass adoption and working on everything in the tech . Plus about a thousand other factors outside of gaming . People trying to talk about the “ state of VR “ without taking these factors into account are merely guessing and most likely wrong because they aren’t considering them . Reviews of games shouldn’t be that hard . Separate personal opinion and preferences from facts . Be able to understand why others like genres you may not . Flat out take an online journalism course or something to understand the basic principles of reporting information I guess lol . You can be as positive and opinionated as you want , as long as it is tempered with unbiased information and keep um separate lol . There is A LOT more “ toxic negativity” in VR then whatever they are complaining about though . From those that have been in the longest and feel slighted by meta being extremely shortsighted and ignoring that we wouldn’t be here without what they are doing . I play all kinds of stuff , just like games . Some think what they like about VR is the ONLY thing good about it ….. screw them lol . Keep on keeping on . Positivity being looked at as a bad thing is if people are being disingenuous… that isn’t what’s happening . People don’t figure out what they like in VR and try random things and random genres . Then blame the creator for liking a game they don’t ….. that’s dumb . As consumers we need to figure out what we like in VR which requires trying random stuff till you find it … They are complaining about the process of figuring out what kind of VR genres they like lol Then just blame it on someone they listened to but didn’t understand .., hence why being clear is so important . Good luck bud . There are a lot of opinions in the VR world … problem is most are from out of context and missing information that makes that opinion more then bias . For what it’s worth I think what you do is very good . Also the “ positive “ reviewers grow exponentially faster then the negative reviewers. There are channels from pcvr days that haven’t grown since quest barely because all they do is complain about the most popular headset and it’s games . Effectively running off ANY potential new subscribers because they most likely just bought a quest….. lol . Your good dude .

One mindset that I try to follow is that even though I do consider a content creator recommendation and verdict, I will also consider the chance of me having a completely different experience with anything I'm interested. Many times have I looked at an experience that others have praised to heavens and back, just to realize it is not for me which is okay, like some horror games that I am sure are awesome but would literally kill me if I tried. And another point that made me follow this very channel is, that above all the views and recommendations, it is clear that you are being honest about what you say. But then again, we can't blame other content creators for going for what nets them more views, aiming for the negative stuff, the doom and gloom and titles with bold words in all caps. I'm glad you seem to really enjoy what you are doing here, we don't get many content creators like you these days...

I've been watching Mr VR Voice's videos for some time now. I typically agree with his criticisms like VR game mechanics and controls often being poorly implemented. They are valuable critiques I hope the industry will take to heart. _However,_ I often do not agree with his overall conclusions about a game or the industry. These seem very jaded to me. This has really struck home with me because I had previously avoided buying some games after watching his scathing video reviews of them digging into their janky aspects. But then I ended up buying a game, Arizona Sunshine 2, and playing a lot of the way through it before seeing Mr VR Voice's video slicing that game to pieces. I did agree with many of his criticisms, but I also felt that a portion of them were only because he never played past the tutorial level. Moreover, I didn't feel that the janky aspects he was complaining about and highlighting actually destroyed the game as a whole being fun. Mr VR Voice goes on to question the sensibilities and/or integrity of anyone who disagrees with his conclusions like this. According to him, if I enjoyed Arizona Sunshine 2, then my standards are very low, or I'm not being honest with myself, or I'm getting caught up in the VR hype train, etc. I think Mr VR Voice goes too far when he suggests that there's something wrong with anyone who holds a different overall opinion than he does. He's very focused on the armpits of a game, and that clearly ruins it for him. I see those same armpits and agree with him about them, but I feel he often misses how much fun the rest of the game is because he's so focused on the negative. I've realized I can't trust his reviews as being indicative of whether I will personally enjoy a game or not. I'm with you that just being in VR in itself makes a game significantly better than flat. VR is a new wild west, and it's not as developed and mature as flat gaming is yet. But to me it's akin to going from silent movies to movies with sound. Maybe the early audio wasn't done well at first and there were problems with silent movie actors not being practiced in speaking roles, etc... but having sound makes the movie better than even the most refined silent movies anyway. Just inherently. That's an opinion. You could have someone who appreciates the older, more mature format more, but that doesn't make my opinion invalid or mean I have low standards or something. That person's critiques about low audio quality could be spot on, and I agree. But I still prefer my movie with sound. That's how I feel about VR. I'm not interested in flat games anymore as a medium. It's all old obsolete technology to me. The comparisons to flat games mean little to me. I'm more interested in comparisons relative to other VR games and where the VR industry is at as a whole. And that has generally been getting better over time, so I think some positivity is warranted.

No matter how well informed and experienced one might be, they should never place their own opinions as superior to anyone else's, that is a good point and one reason why I also don't consider game reviews when picking my next game anymore. I would say that we can benefit from every content creator out there as long as we are able to filter these out, and remember to give ourselves a chance to like or dislike something even if the all-knowing reviewer said otherwise.

At 80 I've been 2d game playing for as long as I can remember (Moon Lander on a 1970 PDP-8 with a teletype !!) so I feel that I'm fairly qualified to talk briefly about the present state of VR. Like computerised telescopes are to the average Joe, VR is, and always will be, a niche product. Attempts by manufactures to attract the masses is never going to work. That Meta tv advert where a man uses his Quest 3 to assemble a baby's cot is an unfortunate joke. I agree with you, Julian, I would rather play a graphical poor game in VR then a Ray traced master piece in 2d, but, and it's a big but, it's not for everone and I'm afraid it never will be. But like amateur astronomers with their state of the art computerised marvel or Radio Hams with a 5000 pound transreceiver, VR in its present state can only be for the technical curious amongst us. VR is a wonderful hobby and long may it continue. Thanks for your brilliant and entertaining videos.

The comparison to telescopes or ham radios is a false analogy. Those are both examples of technologies which are inherently niche. The subject in itself is only interesting to a small subset of the population no matter how good the technology gets. By contrast, VR is an evolution of video gaming, and video gaming has broad appeal. The only thing that makes VR a niche right now is limitations of the technology and limited content. What happens when VR technology reaches the point of surpassing flat monitors in every way? You could argue that it never will, but at that point you're not arguing that VR is inherently niche. You're just arguing that the technology will never be good enough. And I think that's a poor bet to take.

I'm anxious to see where this goes in the future, for sure. I do believe that AR, at the very least, will be mainstream. It's only a matter of time. VR, I also believe will become very mainstream, but maybe not to the level of, say, smart-phone adoption. But AR GLASSES? Oh yeah. I could see those being as big as smart phones some day.

I haven't seen the video you refer to, and chances are pretty slim that i will, because he sounds like a machine generated voice and i like genuine vids with real people narrating. Yes, he surely has a point, because one can hardly tell if the video is bought or not, unless the channel clearly states it. But to be honest: IMHO VR is the best invention since sliced white bread. Admittedly there are good, bad and ugly games. But i noticed that my PC on its own gets way less screen time since i hot my electrical dreamcap. Examples? Today i went on a trip through Bankok and then Tokyo. I was up on the ISS and after dinner i'm gonna patrol a virtual city for replicants and run other police errands ;) Better visuals - sure, i'd buy those for a proverbial dollar - but what we have now is the best that's currently available. So why not sing a little praise but keep the drawbacks on the radar? No need to bash VR -especially not for clicks - keep doing what you do the way YOU want it!

I purchased a few games from Meta and about 5 games from Steam, Half Life: Alyx, Red Matter 2 and others like them to help support both platforms. I played Red Matter 2 for about 30 minutes.

I got a basic understanding of Shakespeare from the film renaissance man (Danny DeVito) now it’s my favourite film - I actually learned something teachers could not teach me . Cast of thy nightly shadow . Basically… stop morning… am I right ?

I'm there with you - have so much to love about the Quest 3. While it's not "perfect," I'm not sure if it is possible to have a perfect headset for everyone. But this is pretty damned close, especially for the price. Thanks for the comment!

Yeah, with the Quest 3 available, I just can't recommend the Quest 3s, unless saving EVERY penny is necessary. Totally understand if that's the case, though.

Hi Julian^^ I think the release might be tied to one of the bigger holidays. Might be Christmas in the west, or, if they have an eye on the asian market as well it might be after chinese New Year, when last generation hardware becomes obsolete and new tech is pushed into the market. Other than that i'm gonna stick to my 6-month rule. I bought my Quest 3 in June, so most likely December this year.

Absolutely not. The Quest3s will be a significant downgrade to the 3, meant to adress less wealthy customers to get sales going. Less features, probably worse specs, but the s will not be an upgrade at any rate.

For sure - totally agree with that. Will be step up from the 2 (with the gen 2 chip, and probably the newer controllers), but missing much of what I love about the quest 3. However, if it gets more people into VR, I'm all for it. I just REALLY hope the Quest 4 (or whatever it ends up being called) will have the pancake lenses again!

Having more competition keeps the market healthy, but if I'm being honest, I hope the next generation of Qualcomm chips takes a little more time in the oven, this will give devs more time to fully utilize the current chip. Releasing the new one too soon might not be the best for every other device that still uses the current gen, some of them are less than a year old.

A great point, and I agree totally. Having a bit of time in between actual releases of the new tech does give time to innovate with what we have, and not just always be chasing the next BIG new thing. Great comment!

@@jollyjulian indeed, besides the games announced to be exclusive to Quest 3, I would like to see what else can be achieved when developing exclusively for the Qualcomm XR2 Gen2, Batman Arkham Shadow is nice but I want to see something akin to Asgard's Wrath 2, an open world with focus on exploration. I'm hoping that Skydance's Behemoth will be everything they can do best, we need more games with colossal bosses 😆

Sadly, no. The lens size and shape is completely different. I had to order a new set for my Quest 3, but worth it.... wish there was a way to adapt the Quest 2 ones for the Quest 3 though!

At this moment I'm still exploring and enjoying my Quest3, which I have since last year. No need for a new headset (yet). I'm also busy finding the right AR/XR glasses, like Viture or Xreal Pro. They seem to me more comfortable to use. Now I'm sitting with my Quest3 in my lazy chair, watching KZfaq. The library is floating next to the browser in front of me and am typing on the keyboard floating in front. Crazy amazing times!

Truly great times to be living (in the real world, and the virtual one)! So glad to hear you're using your Quest 3, and watching media on it as well as gaming. So great for that! And, I have the VITURE PRO glasses, and while they are a great way to consume media when you don't want to have a VR headset on your head, the experience in the Quest 3 is still better, in my opinion. But I do like the Viture Pro glasses, and will be great for traveling and such. and, I've found it a good use outdoors when I want to do some writing and such. Can look through them, see the real world, and have the google doc open in front of me. the FOV is not great, but not too bad (for AR glasses), and the OLED screens are nice. Brightness is good, and dimming the glasses for use in BRIGHT light is great.

Great question, and in my opinion, having both Quest 2 and Quest 3 - the Quest 3 is very much worth the extra money. IF (and only if) you feel you will be using it at least once a week or more, in my opinion. And, if main use is for media watching, the Quest 3 is MUCH better for that. Clearer visuals in every way. So much better! Hope that helps... I have a few videos on my channel about that as well, so feel free to check them out. Thanks for the comment, and enjoy!
