Link works ok for me.

 

Shame Oculus dumped high end VR, however I can see their point of view. We buy the Mercedes end of VR, whereas most people will buy Ford.

Not exactly new info but Rubin is at least being honest, so credit for that. As previously said can't fault the business judgment either. Those of us that are pissed Index didn't release at a price a couple hundred higher and go 2k screens, or that are irritated DCS can't utilize 16 threads are not exactly a large ecosystem. If we want content, somebody's got to make a Nintendo 64 for VR. As good as knuckles look, at $300 for controllers, they aren't going to be it.

 

What pisses me off is the money I have in the Oculus store. Again, can't fault the business decision, but I bought into the Oculus that was a pioneer. When Iribe left, Rift 2 was cancelled, and the "race to the bottom" quote came out the writing was on the wall. But before that they were a different company. They were late on touch and room scale but they killed it with tech that wasn't even designed for it. I thought we'd be in Half Dome like Rift 2's by now, not debating whether a HMD built by HP is as good as Vavle's, disappointed by the most recent Rift, built by Lenovo.

 

The virtual desktop thing on Quest, the no rift s exclusives (must support Quest), all proof that Oculus is spending billions to create a Apple store like VR walled garden... Maybe its good for content, but not the experience, and not small devs. I have thoroughly converted to the house of Valve.

 

I really dislike facebook

just a dude who probably doesn't know what he's talking about

they want 100 million "console" owners buying expensive content.

 

and a few PC guys to test it all..

 

and DCS will never be a game they want because it wont port to a console.

 

I think im going to have to jump off this ship :)
