Can't use it for games. Can't use it for porn. What is it for?

[-] Vast_Emptiness@programming.dev 8 points 9 months ago

For showing off. Of course.

It runs Steam Link very well and has a number of built in games too. And it runs porn great, just not the stereoscopic videos by default, but you can sideload an app for that too.

Yeah, but surely you'd want actual VR games, rather than just Steam Link to a big virtual screen.

Half Life Alyx is a great game, but there's no way it would ever come to this headset just because of the lack of VR controllers.

I played Alyx already twice through and have no desire to play it again. I have a valve index and a gaming PC for those experiences. The AVR most definitely won't replace those games, but they are few and far in between right now.
