All things extended reality

I've been hyper obsessive about this area lately (particularly augmented reality) and think it could use it's own thread

There are a couple devices on the market currently and a well supported platform for developers

oculus.com/quest-2

microsoft.com/en-us/hololens

store.steampowered.com/valveindex

vive.com/us

used to think vr was a gimmick until i actually tried it. it's still a little clunky though but i'll cape for it

ar is gonna be an actual game changer though

yeah you can never really understand the hype until you try it for yourself

there are still major issues with price point, size/usability, and motion sickness, but these can be ironed out

I think AR is where the real potential lies though currently

Half Life Alyx is the game changer

Too bad it costs like $5,000 to run well lol so no one has played it

Half life alyx the best thing on VR

after playing however every other game feels like s*** and a gimmick compared to half life

lol i got rid of my rift s before this was released. i've played boneworks and the walking dead game, and flying around in google maps was cool but i could only play 30 minutes at a time before it gave me a headache.

we won

OP played the long game

we saw the vision, no pun intended

Nintendo labo

TF is MR?

Mixed reality
