Yet every vr place only using vive and none using Oculus, this includes all the theme park with vr and pretty much outside Malaysia.

Talking bout themed parks... Has anyone tried the Limited edition Final Fantasy rollercoaster in Universal Studios Osaka?

It's is pretty darn amazing.

It's limited (temporary) and it isn't marked on your themed park maps - It's called XR-something.........


edit- forgot to mention the ride is like the harry potter ride (or singapore's transformers ride) but using VR goggles instead of 3D glasses

Do you mean this 1?



It looks like its using a Samsung S6 with GearVR innovator. looks nice but i wonder would there be significant motion sickness seeing there is no positional tracking and 60Hz only.

No motion sickness whatsoever... The environment was quite bright and the ride was like 5 min or so...

Oddly, what I experienced wasn't like that sword-battle clip in that video... I watched some robot/monster battle instead, similar to pacific rim where I was in a small ship like those in star wars

Can't elaborate further since I have zero knowledge bout Final Fantasy lol

Not yet, probably next year I will. Visiting VR Zone Shinjuku as well. Can't wait

You know guys, I just wish VR HMD would be cheaper. Kinda still expensive. When a newer one comes out it will probably be more expensive.

Also why I only stick with PSVR for now. And waiting for a new Vive or Oculus version of hmd if I want to jump on PC VR. Felt like getting a normal Vive or Oculus is a bit late, later might regret if a new one comes out soonish

yeah the VR Hmd makers are aware of this and are actually not making much money from selling these atm. Alot of cash are spend in encouraging VR app developers and trying to provide low cost VR hmd as well to increase the VR population. Its probably the reason why oculus and vive has not upgraded their HMD since 2016. htc did make the vive pro but says its prices for business used?

I suppose u could try the Windows mixed reality headsets. their not too expensive now. the cheapest with hand controller cost about RM1.2k. U gotta have a minimum PC with GTX 1050TI for gaming though

edit: its GTX 1050TI not gtx 1080ti. damn autocorrect...

1.2k might as well just grab the Oculus, but Oculus is a no for me, since I need my glasses for VR stuff. 1080ti shouldn't be a problem, my current card atm. Tempted to get a Vive actually, but rather just wait for a while till a new one comes out. I probably won't play as much as I want still for VR content, I find it kinda troublesome.

Yeah Vive Pro is targeted for businesses. Like theme parks and all that. They probably trying to get all the current one's to upgrade. Most of the VR cafe I go in Japan also using Vive, so some might upgrade to the Pro I guess. For me definitely not an option

Maybe the newer Samsung Odyssey will be good, heard Samsung is going to release a newer version soon. WMR so far I think Odyssey is the best out of the rest, I tested it a bit and it's pretty nice compared to other WMR. You have any WMR?

If eye >100 power would need to wear glasses in vr.
Highly suggest to add lens protector too.
I have the Lenovo explorer. Similar fov as vive/rift with 110Deg. Its really sharp at the center but blurry at the periphery (in contrast to vive). Also ipd fix at 6.3cm.
Samsung odyssey plus is released but... Early review suggest some are not satisfied with the lens blur technique to reduce SDE.
Oculus is a stable choice for now. The company is doing well unlike htc (which is hemorrhaging cash now), compatible with steamvr, and accurate tracking. Lack of glass adjustability and lots of usb needed is probably its biggest weakness.
Btw i spoke to someone in rec room saying only certain region account can play rec room. Is that true?

Yeah HTC not looking well. My issues with Oculus is just that it's not friendly for those with glasses and I really need one if not blurry gila haha. If not I am Oculus already.

Rec room no issue for our region. Steam has it, and there is no issue. I tried both on PC and PSVR.

i dont used VR only for games ..here is my quick drawing(not that quick la..almost total 3 hours) of K/DA Akali from the super awesome music video using Oculus Quill

have u considered contact lens? just a thought?

Nope, prefer using glasses, but I could consider
I'll just wait for a newer HMD for now. There is already a new Valve VR on the works it seems. https://www.roadtovr.com/report-new-valve-v...-leaked-images/

hey which app did u use?

Heard of it. But no estimate date yet.
Its gonna be a while.
But if realy launched, htc vive can bungkus ady. No way Viveport (vive official store) can maintain them. Its a malware and most user uninstall it. Thankfully htc vive isnt an ars3 about forcing ppl to install it, unlike wmr and rift that forces it their users to keep theirs running in background.

I used the free Oculus Quill..bought Tilt Brush and MasterpieceVR but didn't like tht much 🤔

Actually before the Oculus Home 2.0 update, you can start games from Steam VR without running them automatically by set 'run as admin' on the Oculus shortcut. But new feature in home 2.0 let you manually put any third party .exe apps in the menu including import own cover album

Anybody here tried bionik for oculus? Looks good with the orange lining.

Magic Leap in the house

Good? Or still early tech kinda thing. I'm doing master's on AR. Would be nice to know.
