Thanks. I will link it Steam later but imagine my surprise when Google Earth was nowhere to be found on Meta lmao

I use google earth on the meta store app

I bought one yesterday! As someone with very minimal exposure to VR, the thing that really got me was the UI! haha. Using my fingers to resize windows and move them around and the first time the floating keyboard popped out literally blew my mind.

Also I'm not scared to admit that I actually started sweating a little after playing beat saber.

Good option for those without a PC and want the Google earth experience

It's been quite some time since I visit this thread and I see it finally has stopped being the "Official Referral Thread".

I'm playing Panzer Dragoon for the first time in the form of Panzer Dragoon Remake with a VR mod, and it's like the game was always meant for VR. You control the dragon with the left stick but you aim with the gun in your hand. You can even aim to the sides and back without having to push the L/R buttons, as if you were really mounting a dragon.

Holy hell that sounds awesome. I was sort of following the VR mod and lost track of it. What do I need to give it whirl?

I think I'm gonna ride it out with the default jock strap. Looks goofy as hell but my neck has adjusted to the front weight and it feels fine now.

I can't believe I'm actually enjoying an Angry Birds game. Its on Quest + and is pretty fun.

Anyone who wants to look into fitness apps, my girl won't stop raving about the Les Mills Bodycombat app. It's pretty straightforward from what I saw, no subscriptions just a one-time purchase. I hear Supernatural VR is good too but we're not based in US or Canada - bloody region locks.

Just download and unzip it into the game's folder. I didn't even mess with the bHaptics stuff as I don't have it. The only minor issue I had was with the water reflections on the first stage not rendering correctly for both eyes, but aside from that, it's seamless.

I have a bobovr strap but I sometimes use the default one while laying down when my back doesn't want to cooperate. I even did a full playthrough of Resident Evil 4 like that, LOL.

I'm thinking about getting back into vr, I have a rift s and quest 1. 4070ti pc. The black level difference on the rift s LCD compared to quest 1 oled is very apparent to me.

Is the quest 3 any better? Will I miss oled?
Maybe a psvr2 might be better. My quest 1 still looks pretty good but higher refresh rate and resolution would be nice.

Quest 3 blacks will disappoint. No way around it. But depending on what you are using VR for, a wireless headset with incredible optics opens a lot of doors. The blacks suck. But there's more to VR than blacks, and I'm as pro-OLED as they come. Just keep that in mind.

I think both headsets are a great deal, and they're both kinda complete opposites too, you could buy both and have completely different experiences from each one, good experiences.

Also, there's a pretty good chance headsets that fix the black issue from the Quest 3 and keep the clarity and freedom release in 1-2 years. Quest 4, Valve's Deckard which could be AMAZING, the LG headset using Meta OS that will run the Quest games, and so forth. A good chance this stuff hits pretty soon, at least info and is out 2026.

You might be better off with psvr2, but every youtuber I watch that owns both uses quest 3 for pcvr.

It's also worth considering quest 3 exclusives without a PC. Pretty underrated. If you own ps5 too though that's a big deal.

This is no way a definitive answer but I mostly use PSVR 2 for games I really want to immerse myself in. The blacks help and it blocks more light for me. I have not tried it with PC.

I mostly use Quest 3 when I want to multi-task while playing AR. I believe the Quest 3 would win on ease of use with PC and it is immersive enough. I just find that I use it more as an AR space. If I did not have a PS5, I doubt I would have gotten a PSVR2.

Thanks for the advice guys. When I played Vader immortal on my rift s it looks pretty washed out and it's a different experience on quest 1.

Probably pick up a psvr2. I sold my ps5 to my friend a few months ago but will probably pick up a pro when gta6 comes out so makes sense for ps5 vr games down the line.

I'd wait to see what Valve have cooked up before spending.

PSVR2 looks dramatically, massively, and significantly superior to Q3 from a visual perspective, but the headstrap and physical design is the worst in the entire contemporary industry by far.

Q3 looks like ass visually, the LCDs are garbage pale sludge that's worse than your grandma's $20 burner phone from Wallgreens, but adding one of the elite style straps make it one of the most comfortable and one of the best physical designs.

They're both pretty bad options honestly. I'd probably wait to see if Valve Deckard is OLED, or if any third parties build a Quest OLED, or possibly a Quest Pro 2. You will absolutely loathe any LCD headset if you're asking this question. LCD panels in VR is like putting square wheels on a car.

Yeah I dont understand the move to lcd screens. I've had oled TVs and phones for a decade now so I see the difference immediately.

Hyperbole the post!! PSVR2 is by far my headset of choice unless I'm playing a game that requires lots of movements cause wires and movement is hot garbage but the quest 3 looks great too
