Thanks to @RushReality for letting me know about the book "The history of the future" by blake harris it outlines the history of oculus and id highly recommend reading it.

Thanks @reggietchang for letting me borrow his camera after mine broke.
Thanks. @monoham1 for lending me his DK2 and Quest.
This video was a passion project that I had been putting off for some time. For the past two months, I kept telling myself that I just needed one more week to complete it. Although the video is not perfect, I finally had to let it go and share it with the world. There were so many things I wanted to add and change, but at some point, you have to release your creation into the world. Even if I worked on this video for another year, I still wouldn't be satisfied with it.
Originally, the video was five hours long, but I managed to cut it down to two hours and then one hour. The project was enormous, and my head was full of VR stuff. I had 506GB of raw footage, and my Davinci Resolve project was so massive that it kept crashing. To manage it, I had to divide it into nine separate projects, but even then, they would still crash. During the shooting, my camera broke halfway through, and I had to use a replacement camera with a buzzing microphone, so I had to dub over the footage. The audio mixing was a nightmare, with more than 10 different audio inputs and mics and nine projects to mix, but I finally got there. I had a blast learning about VR and the history of oculus. This video was so much fun and challenging to make.

That’s the wrong BTS vid!
@@LouLou-xl3kz its a joke about the hell i went through making this video
@@josaltI do not know if my opinion means anything to you but, I find that the video have created is very good. I really enjoyed watching through the history of VR. I learned a lot of things and was able to easily follow along. Not only that, but I also am very excited to see where VR is going in the future. So i would say that your hard work has paid off.
@@badmanswag1152 Hey Badmanswag! Thank you so much for your kind words! It means a lot to me that you enjoyed the video and found it informative. I put a lot of effort into researching and creating it, so it's great to hear that it paid off and that you're excited about the future of VR. I hope you continue to learn and explore this fascinating technology!
@@josaltwill you make a continuation where you buy the meta quest 3?
I can’t believe how valve hated vr but now they own one of the most popular vr headsets out there
Hate is a strong word they just couldnt see past the problems
It's more like, Valve and more specifically Gabe Newell could see the potential that VR had, and how far Oculus would have to go from what they were shown. They weren't entirely interested in hopping into the market right off the bat. And personally, I think that was a smart move. They struck at the perfect time with the Valve Index and made one of the most popular PCVR headsets out there nowadays.
@@Samevi I really hope the deckard does the same thing for the standalone market that the Index did for the PCVR market in terms of making high fidelity more accessible. It seems that Meta is in a downwards spiral at the moment too which could easily make my Quest 2 unusable if they stop supporting it.
@@Samevi Valve did a whole lot of their own R&D back with HTC and after, but by letting Oculus go on their own they let the market grow while focusing on building a good headset to sell, even though I feel Valve wouldn't have big problems with promoting VR...
Its not all about hate, its all about business
This video was amazing. You did an absolutely incredible job at not only showing the history of VR in a super detailed way but also showing us how it physically evolved by trying out all of the headsets over the years. Absolutely phenomenal watch.
Lop
omg guy from thing
Thanks legend! Love your vids btw !
I agree, all of his examples that spanned 2014 to 2022 really showed how the technology evolved, and got us excited for a bright and innovative future of VR as it established itself as a technology and grown. *this is off topic and not related to the first part of my comment* there are similar videos/ time line that focus on another section of tech such as smartphones, I personally knew many things were happening in parallel to the oculus timeline. I would like to see a total timeline of the growth of all consumer tech from CPUs, to Phones, to Headsets to see how things evolved over time in coorellation to other tech
Its mini 😮
I think this video is a really good breakdown of the internal history of Oculus as a part of the history of the VR industry as a whole.
Thanks
I have the whole line of vr headsets and I can't believe how fast the technology jumped. When I have people visiting my collection, I am telling the story but the dates never make sense. What feels like 30 years of history is not even 10..
Yeah i guess we can thank Zucc for a lot of that!
@nomercyshownherethere is no way you bought an oculus DK2
Dude how do u have a line of them i dont even have a cardboard vr 😢
@@Alemlerin-Kirali used market, you can find them for really cheap. Also most people who buy a headset for the first time wont use it much or at all so even "used" they are still in great shape most of the time
It’s crazy how we went from bulky headsets with cables and control boxes,to standalone headsets that only require a single cable to connect to a PC
and even to a point were you dont need a cable for pcvr
Called me poor in multiple languages
what headset u use? -uhhh. dk1
This video is amazing, the amount of effort you went through (and money you likely spent) is incredible. Also your passion for VR is clearly huge, hearing you describe each experience just makes me wanna play.
Hey man, thanks for the comment! It's awesome to hear that you thought the video was amazing. Like, for real, it took a lot of time and money to put together, but I'm so stoked that people like you appreciate it. It does mean a lot... Yeah my passion for VR is massive im obsessed at the moment its the future (at least for me). When I was talking about each experience, I could feel myself getting super hyped about the tech haha
HI JAWCLAMPS! BIG FAN CANT BELIEVE NOBODY NOTICED YOU EVEN AFTER 2 MONTHS!
JAW CLAMPS GORILLA TAG?!
@@josalt this should have 1m likes you sound and look like a youtuber with over 10 million the amount of effort you put in this video is insane I have stayed p night at 12:40 to watch your 1 hour video
@@DutchVanDer_Linde Thanks mate!
My first headset was the CV1 and even though I have the Rift-S, Quest, & Quest 2, I still prefer the CV1 due to its OLED displays and because of how light it is. The controllers are also a beast when it comes to battery life and are super light aswell.
Yep that was my experience as well. Its so light and the controllers are amazing. Unfortunately for me the quest pro is just better mainly due to the lenses.
@@josalt I’ve never gotten the chance to test out a VR headset with pancake lenses but from what I know there is a massive improvement in clarity
@@lightningfast0102 Yeah and it just helps a lot with the eye strain!!! Its hard to go back once you have used them!
One question did any of the games you bought on the oculus app allow you to get it on the pc oculus store
@@Wow4.0 There are very few games will transfer from Quest to PC or vice versa, I ended up having to buy a majority of my games over again
Oculus veteran here! I have them all, bought them all on their release date. Great effort all round & good on you for spelling out Palmer's firing & the accurate history.
Thanks for the nice words! Palmers departure was hard to get right im sure i got some things wrong and i read a whole book on it and watched interviews. I do think there is something missing. All we get is Palmers perspective i wonder what Fb would say if they wernt worried about PR. I guess we will never know...
@@josalt i hope 'the history of the future' is oneday the basis of a feature film.
give me one nigga
@@RogerEssigArtist just curious but which one do you think is the best because i want to get quest 2 but i hear it gets really hot is there are good one that doesnt get that hot? please let me know
@@Dragonball3D i'd suggest waiting for Quest 3 reviews
I honestly found the Palmer drama very interesting. Sounds like he went through hell for a while, but he pushed through and recreated his success in a different field, very inspiring.
he broke rule number 1 as a public figure, stay as far as possible from politics, what was to him a very, VERY small political donation ended his career
@@flamingscar5263 Yes, but the funny thing is tons of public figures speak and promote certain political views and never receive backlash. It's just because Palmer had the "wrong" side of views. Which is dumb
@@flamingscar5263that rule only exists if you're on the wrong side
@@ReformedFateit’s crazy how being a shithead makes people think you’re a shithead. How dare people have the freedom to not associate with shitheads if they don’t want to. Crazy.
My first VR experience was getting shown the CV-1 in a Best Buy in 2016. Absolutely blew my mind. I was quite broke at the time but I saved up and got one. I still use it frequently to this day and it absolutely slaps. The mesh face pad is atrocious but that’s really the only problem it has in my opinion. Thing is a feat of engineering
I remember going to bedt buy just to try those headsets out, it was so cool
Wow, man, this is the most in depth video I've seen about the history of oculus. Keep up the great work dude, you deserve to get to see it pay off.
Thanks mate !
This is such a well shot, and thorough video. I loved seeing all the gameplay and each headset alongside it! Can't wait to see where your channel goes!
Thanks Lucas!
Called me poor in 9 different ways. I wish I could afford a quest 2
It happens, hope you can eventually save up for a quest 2 or something soon 🙏 Personally I've always had a big empty room but no money for a VR setup but that changed today and I got a used rift cv1 for 90 and I'm using my old pc that's just good enough to run a few things in VR
@@maverick9708cv-1 is awesome
might be able to snag a used one now
Try a pawn shop I managed to pick a used one up for 120 with light stick drift(fixed with blowing air into the stick) and a decent battery
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭same
As someone who had a Rift CV1 when they first came out, you should really play Robo Recall, the graphics were and still are way ahead of it's time, it's basically on par with Alyx's quality but released way back when the only headsets you could play it on had resolutions that couldn't even see all the game's detail. It's a gem, really.
The rift used to be my dream vr headset when it came out, but I didnt have a good pc back then, Im now getting the quest 3
this really makes me have a new found appreciation for how far the tech has come, i remember in middle school my friends and I attempting to pool together a years worth of savings between all 3 of us only for none of our parents wanting to trust kickstarter, in hindsight im kinda glad as the DK1 probably wouldn't have been what we were after, but its insane to see how far its came in like a decade, id argue not even phones have gone through as big improvements (i mean with VR we went from no DOF to 6DOF full body tracking WITH hand tracking, with phones we went from what? touch screen with stylus to touch screen with finger?) its sad that the original oculus founder got thrown out, seems to be mark's kink really, but im also glad we got to have the quest and quest 2
It’s really insane how this may be in a “history” lesson one day.
Id love that haha
@@josalt me too.
I remember my Oculus Development Kit 1. Loved showing people roller coaster demos and things. Among the Sleep use to have a VR mode and was crazy with it. Now I own a bunch of VR Equipment.
Thank you for this video, the quality was perfect, the background subtle music is amazingly immersive, the documentation is very interesting. Overall 10/10 video!
A lengthy, well made document about a lot of the recent VR history. You earned a sub. I expected just a review of all the devices, but got something much better :)
Thanks mate!
The fabric on the Rift CV1 covers the tracking lights.
Ohhhh
The picture from the dk1 shows a lot of progression off the original headsets, weird to see how far it went in so little time then the internal development taking another like 2 decades to match
Phenomenal video! I still use my CV1 from years back when i was in high school, recently been contemplating getting a new quest 2/3 but could never find a review where someone would compare to a CV1, so this weird niche review was extremely helpful for me. Thank you!
What an amazing video. I got into VR with psvr1. Got quest 2 but i really feelt like I missed that golden pcvr days meta had with rift and rift s. So i got myself an used rift and rift s. Purchased all the AAA pcvr titles meta offered on PC on 2 accounts and i slowly completing them with a friend. Meta made most of their games multiplayer and works too this day!. I have now gotten myself the psvr2 and are excited for the future.
Thanks mate! Thanks for sharing your story. Eh i dont even think we have hit the golden age of PC VR yet maybe in a couple years haha! At least i hope so 😢Yeah Psvr2 looks cool enjoy it mate!
Its cool to see the Evolution of vr really makes you appreciate the things that we take for granted in vr nowadays
Yeah comparing the quest pro to DK1 is craziness!
Or the stuff we're missing.
That was fantastic! I'm still using the CV1 so when I am able to upgrade it's going to be quite a jump in visuals. It's very exciting to see how quickly things are evolving
Thanks mate! Yeah CV1 is honestly still pretty good the designs of the headsets have gotten a lot better but honestly CV1 is goo enough for most things...
When you upgrade, don't get rid of your CV1! You can use it for full body tracking!
Also waiting for the Quest 3? Seems to be the one to get.
oh wow, republique vr looks great! sure its a little rough around the edges (due to being on a mobile headset) but still the asthetic is STRONG! so well done! Amazing! a well cobbled chunk of polygons looks way better than a infinitely poly dense flat world
As usual, an incredibly well made and put together video! You deserve 100K Subs, and even more!
Wow, thank you!
@@josalt no problem man! 👍🏾💯
i thought this would just be tech specs comparisons, but wow! you've really impressed me with all this history and research!
Thanks!
THIS VIDEO WAS SO WELL PUT TOGETHER, love the chill vibe and the background and different explanations and everything
THANKS!!
@@josalt yeah i really wanted to do something else but couldn't stop watching, just wanted to see your input on everything
This is amazing waching vr slowly get better. Now when I look at my 𝚘𝚌𝚞𝚕𝚞𝚜 quest 2 I see a big piece in modern gaming and why it's so special.
Yeah it is special haha. Compared to DK1 its a miracle !
That impresive af 10/10 film
Thanks meme king
Fun fact! At 43:48, you can actually get this old menu back by using the Oculus Link to your computer. "This is the default menu for pcvr"
I was thinking of starting a VR channel and making this exact video! You smashed it, way better than I ever could. Now I need to come up with another idea ;) subbed!
Hey! You definitely should start posting VR stuff! Not stealing my idea if you make it haha you are free to redo my video!

@@josalt Thanks for pushing me over the line ;) Here's my first ever VR video - Tips would be appreciated, my VO will improve. Appreciate you! kzhead.info/sun/Y5mGp7aAnYyilXA/bejne.html
update for quest 3?
To add some more history, the inter period between the launch of the quest 1 to quest 2 was crazy, alot of people wanted the quest 1 but FB stopped production to get ready to sell the quest 2, so resellers were selling quest 1s for almost triple the rrp. I feel like those who only got into vr during the quest 2 really missed the early vr community and the fun and theories that were going on at the time, it feels like there was more innovation. Still happy to see more people in the community and enjoying the thing that many people have dedicated their life to
Yeah definitely i remember the time but for me i was unsure if i should get a rift s or wait for quest 2. There are lots i had to leave out of the vid because it would go forever. The hardest thing to cut was what happened between the DK2 and CV1. They built tonnes of controller prototypes and headset prototypes. Im sure there is lots more innovation in VR to come we will see if Apples headset lives up to the hype but unsure if the huge leaps will come from META.
The times before the Quest 2 were so amazing
@@shreeeze I do back that, im happy that the VR community is much larger now and people see the potential that VR has. But that being said I feel like the whole dynamic of the community has changed, it feels personally more toxic and theres less innovation, speculation and hope for VR as a whole. Im not sure what was the cause of all this and I wish to not point fingers, but im still happy how the community how it is today I just miss some elements of how it used to be
Thank you so much. I'm still on the OG Rift VC1 because I enjoy the light weight, behind-the-back tracking, PC Graphics and ASW. Looks like the Quest Pro finally made inside-out tracking work and the Quest 3 is similar, just without face tracking. Hope the latency and compression artifacts are okay when using it as PCVR. I really wish I could just plug it straight in.
You can, but you must use a usb-c cable (preferably 3) to use it.
@@Ordlnary_Gamer I think maybe he's referring to be able to plug it straight into the GPU like a native pcvr headset does to avoid the compression and artifacts.
in 2013 i saw an italian youtuber testing dk2 with hydra controller and half life 2 with full motion controller support, it blows my mind at the time. it blows my mind nowadays too so...
I loved this video my first headset was the quest 1 I was just a 12 year boy who saved his $400 and bought I fell in love now I’m almost 16 and I bought a pc just to play vr and I have a index, quest 2, and kat walk c. I’m now a vr enthusiast I really believe in the technology. Even though stand-alone is what got me into vr I do wish meta didn’t ditch the whole pcvr community I want more AAA titles but I understand why they did this. Thank you for the history in the beginning too I’m sure this video will make people appreciate vr and not see it as a silly metaverse that may never happen.
You're so young, yet you're such an enthusiast! I'm also a young enthusiast, I'm about a year older than you, almost 17. I'm not as lucky as you, though. I only have a GearVR, Oculus Go, and Quest 2. Still, I love vr. And I plan to get many more headsets. Nice to meet a fellow young enthusiast!
@@DiamondDepthYT not every I meet someone my age with such a passion for vr not to be people can see the potential only the gimmick happy to meet another enthusiast!
@@andrewrodriguez1483 how you get big money like dat?
Hey there, thanks for sharing your story about how you fell in love with VR! It was similar for me once i tried a rift s i was just hooked! It's awesome to see how much you've grown as a VR enthusiast, from your first Quest 1 to now owning an Index, Quest 2, and even a Kat Walk C i have always wondered if they are worth it ive never tried one! . Thanks for the nice words about the video providing some historical context and helping people to appreciate VR more. I thought it was important to understand where VR came from in order to better appreciate where it's going. And while it's true that Meta's focus on standalone VR may have left some PCVR enthusiasts feeling left out, it's important to remember that the goal is to make VR more accessible to everyone. With continued innovation and development, I'm sure we'll see amazing experiences and games on all platforms. I wish they would make a headset powerful enough to play VR games with a full operating systems like there holocake 2 prototype. Anyway, keep on enjoying VR and exploring all the incredible possibilities it has to offer!
@@josalt thank you for your response and time it means a lot
Great video! This really restored my hope in VR. I ordered a Quest 3 a bit ago and it hasn’t arrived yet. I was starting to regret my decision but this video really restored my hope in virtual reality. Great quality video, thank you for spending the time to make it.
If you liked how half life 2 looked on vr, theres actually a mod on steam that allows you to play all of half life 2 (plus the episodes) in full 6dof with motion controls, its absolutely amazing
Great video! I watched the whole thing! :) I am still using my original Oculus Rift CV1 and I love it, but soon I'll consider upgrading to the Quest Pro!
I am amazed. How did you do this? How long to edit? It’s been my dream to own a quest 2 and you have all of them? Amazing video, one of the best I’ve seen. Don’t give up man, your going places.
Hey! I did it everyday for 2 months constantly filming then edited it all at the end. Was a massive challenge but super satisfying to post! Im sure one day you will have a quest 2! Thanks for the nice words !
2 MONTHS? That is so long! That is dedication. Thanks I’ll try to get one, I’m saving up but all I have is $30 so it might take a while.
@@SoupieVR. You should wait for Meta quest 3 the successor of Quest 2. it’s going to come 6 months October 2023 according to the leaker. So please save up for meta quest 3 if it’s came out. So I don’t recommended buy meta quest 2 in 2023 because Quest 3 on its way I hope this helps you.
@@yuyo09VR oh yeah, I just searched it up, thanks! By the time I have enough money it will be October so thanks so much for pointing that out.
@@SoupieVR. your welcome! can I add you on oculus when your getting meta quest 3 :)
LETS GOOO!! THE LEGENDS BACK! Im getting up early for this.
🥰🥰
I got my DK1 almost 10 years ago. I kept up with the Oculus headsets until Facebook required a facebook account. Now I have several current HMDs but nothing will compare to putting on my first DK1. Such a rush!
I started off with a cv1 and Rift S almost 4 years ago now and have I'd say 3000hrs+ in vr, it certainly has evolved a lot since then!
Yeah its insane the evolution! Damn i wish oculus still made PC VR headsets haha
The rift s the mic is broken
must have been expensive but a good video definitely a underated creator
I got them 2nd had and did a few trades but loved making the video. Any excuse to buy more VR headsets... haha and thanks for the kind words!!
@@josalt doesn't matter if it's 2nd hand what a video man! Very knowledgeable even not 1 million vr channel can create such type of great content like history and unboxing of every quest not even think of it! This video was a lot needed! And please continue this type of content not boneworks alone!
@@YashrajThakor06 Wow thanks so much for the kind words really does mean a lot! Yeah ill be branching out more haha but still have some boneworks stuff haha
@@josalt okay Np! 😂 Means a lot you can also do a Pico video? Like this
@@YashrajThakor06 I want to but its expensive haha
Fantastic video! I actually didn't know Facebook acquired Oculus that early on 🤯 I've worked for a few VR experience venues since 2017 and thought I had a pretty good knowledge 😂 thanks for the great video 🙏
DK1 was my first good VR experience, then CV1, then Rift S (also the first headset that was mine, DK1 and CV1 I used at the local sim racing center, quite often). Now I have a PICO 4, considering the Q3.. I like the PICO but the Oculus (now Meta 🥲) interface is just better...
Amazing documentary
Thank you!

I mean basically haha
amazing video!!! watched all the way through and it only got better. kept me entertained all the way through- keep it up! 🔥🔥🔥

who blurred palmers feet lol
Im glad someone noticed haha
@@josalt i noticed that too i was looking for some who saw thet lol also great vid
Yeah and I wonder why 😂
I remember when I got my quest 2 in 2021, I had to attach a water bottle behind my headset so that it could counter-balance the weight in-front of the headset, I had to do that until I got a new strap to replace the crappy stock strap. Those were so interesting times, but hey it worked so it didn't bother me
You should make more videoessays like this like: The history of VR or (Video essay title about anything you like)
A single donation might steered entire vr industry downhill because of cancel culture. What a time to be alive... Actually let's see how quest 3 performs
I have a feeling quest 3 will be similar to everything we have gotten so far haha. Damn i just wish they woudl send the resolution as high as humanly possible !
The good enough passthrough in the quest 3 is a big difference for the casual users and opens possibility's for games! Quality overall is very good but indeed nothing special comparing to the more expensive headsets. Altough price vs quality they are the best in te market right now in my opinion !
Frige pics
There is a fridge in this one
@@josalt Gimme a free one deal
awesome video, would love to see more details on the dk1 and dk2 setup since most of that software has been lost to time.
Yeah i cut a lot of it out was a challenge to get it working! Got there in the end!
Palmer seems like an awesome guy??? Trump supporter who is now devoted to border control.... Ye what a cool guy
The quest is great, it was the first (and currently only) vr set I ever had, so great, no setting up cameras or anything and I can even use it with my pc to play so I have more options
I own the Oculus Rift and it’s great, the only downside and reason I replaced it was because it was old and was restricting the amount of games I could play
I like how you incorporate the history of oculus with this video.
this is actually perfect. Every single headset got a very well in depth explanation. Thank u.
Thanks for the kind words!
Insanely entertaining vid man, liked and subbed. You’ll have to remake it soon though, Quest 3 drops next Tuesday, Oct. 10th! 😂

@@josalt what happened was I accidentally dropped it 😅 I will be more careful when I get the new quest :)
Great video! My first headset was the Quest 2 but the Quest Pro is by far the best for me. Love playing Ultra Wings 2
Thanks! Yeah i love my quest Pro. I havent played Ultra Wings 2 ill check it out
incredibly informative, thanks for the hard work on this one!
My pleasure!
i was extremely entertained by this video it's so nice and informational, thanks for making this video :)
I'm so glad!
Absolutely loved the video and love the great content, thx for taking the time to make this great content for us!😀
As of 2023 i still use the original quest, and the only drawback is not having enough performance to run every game, but a decent enough laptop gets me through. can't complain, especially since there's less facebook involvement with it
This video is well explained, great history and knowledge and easy to understand. Overall, literally perfect!
Wow, thanks!
This video is so well built and is fantastic. I'm honestly surprised you don't have at least a few hundred thousand subscribers
Thanks mate!
theres something abt him thats so comforting he reminds me of lain from serial experiments
I got to try the dk1 back when it came out, I've been a huge fan of vr ever since.
I own and still daily use the CV1 just based on the fact that it's still running after 5 years of use, and nothing is broken on it. Plus, I think the CV1 controllers are the best ever controllers on a VR headset. I have a Quest 2 for about a year, but after having the CV1 for so long, the Quest 2 just feels front-heavy. Additionally, with the CV1, you can take off the headphones since they are magnetically attached, making it easy to use your PC headphones, which I do. It feels a lot better. I do hope they bring the controllers back like the CV1 😢
Wow, it was very entertaining and every minute was very informative! Thanks for putting your efforts!
Thanks for the kind words legend!
@@josalt the legend is you we are just viewers! 👍🏻🫡
38:51 I feel like for all of the quest’s, they should have had an option of black or white, I feel like a black quest 2 and quest 3 would look really good!
I remember my Absolute awe when i first unboxed my CV1 6 years ago. It was the single most Impressive piece of hardware id ever owned.
Yep! Step INTO the game!!!!
I really like the way your videos are formed, And your way of narrating.
Samsung Conference Gear VR guy... using an IPad on stage?? Haha what. Anyways, incredible video and very fascinating. Just recently go the Quest Pro and it is so much more easy to just throw it on and play versus the Oculus Rift CV1 I had back in 2017.
The oculus go menu is so nostalgic.
Watching while cleaning up my quest 2 too sell, hurts me letting go of this man.
Dude this is such a good quality video, I love it!
Thanks mate means a lot
I still used my oculus quest 1 for pc vr it looks like it’s been though WW2 and back but it does the job!
I had the quest 2 from release up until the Pico 4 release. Pancake lens are the future for now. You could do a history on Pico headsets next, as they are metas biggest competition.
Yeah i think ill do pico next time to start hording the headsets haha. Yeah greed the pancake lenses look soooo much better!!!
Hey brotha first time seeing your videos, nice energy and editing style!! Nicely done! 👏
Thanks mate!
I've just ordered the quest 3, so this video was super interesting, my last vr was the gear vr but they did a phone update on the Samsung that totally disabled the use of the software so the who gear vr became a paperweight and I only got to use it a few times.
Palmer luckey boosted the vr thoughts and now he has created a headset that explodes when you die in game
i remeber going to my friends house in 2016-2017 and playing his rift and it was the coolest thing ever
Gear vr was my first vr headset, now 8 years later Im going into vr again with quest 3
Yoooo whats that headstrap that you're using on the quest 2?? Please respond. I need exactly that.
This is just the beginning for VR
