Re: The VR Conundrum
Have you played the four other The Room incarnations for PC (not VR)? I have this on my Steam wishlist but haven't purchased it yet. (I have the other four regular games via Steam and have played two...

Re: The VR Conundrum
It'll take a bit of doing for me to fight anything in VR. :D
I like Moss and I've played Lucky's Tale, Deisim, and, of course, Butts: The VR Experience. :D :D
I own a bunch more that I...

Re: The VR Conundrum
Another question: One thing I like about my Rift/tethered headset is that, if someone is using the headset, I can still see what they're doing on my computer monitor. (We walked a younger person...

Re: The VR Conundrum
Ohhh, I see! I thought you had to be ON Facebook WHILE you were using the headset, and that just made no sense to me. So, the account is to go purchase games, etc.?

Aren't they the ones that are tethered somehow to your Facebook account? My son has a Quest and said something about it needing Facebook. Or is the Quest 2 something newer and differenter? :D :D

Re: The VR Conundrum
Oh, it also probably matters if you're as picky as others about things like framerates, etc. I'm NOT picky about the subtle stuff. I just don't want hiccupping or stuttering while I'm playing, and I...

ynwtf , you might not need as much "oomph" as you think. I'm running a refurbished business Dell computer right now that handles my Oculus Rift just fine. My specs are these:

Re: The VR Conundrum
So I finally bought Beat Saber, which was originally one of the games that got me into VR when I played it briefly at a friend's house in Houston in April 2019. And I broke down and bought myself a...

Re: The VR Conundrum
I do like Moss, for example, which doesn't give me those issues. But it doesn't help that the headset throws me initially into that "room" with the grid behind it. Then I start out with an unresolved...

Re: The VR Conundrum
I actually do have the regular Garry Mod "thing" (I hesitate to call it a proper "game")... It's just... weird. And filled with weirdos. :D Glad to hear the VR version is more of the same. :D

Of course it's going in this direction....
