      Was thinking about getting one, and still am actually, but I might have to do something I don't want to do, and start looking at the used or eBay type of market. I'd rather get a new one though, as I'm thinking I'd rather be more assured of it's working state... Not really sure what I will end up doing though. One plus is that you get BeatSaber with it on their current promotion, if you buy a new one, and I have a 30$ referral from a friend, although I'd rather just have the money, to buy 3rd party accessories with, like a battery head strap like a boboVR m2 Halo strap

    Worth mentioning that buying a VR cover faceplate and a decent strap like those from boboVR increase the comfort by an order of magnitude. Also there are lots of really great killer apps both paid and free on the Quest. Pavlov, VRchat, Contractors, Demeo, Resident Evil 4 and even more. The pace of releases is really good recently with several good titles almost every month. It’s also a really open platform, I’ve installed Vr mods of games not on the store, like Doom 3, return to Wolfenstein, Quake 3 and Half-life which is a nice change from most “consoles”. Social VR in a lot of games is also a killer feature in my opinion, all just in stand alone.

  • @Ucceah
    @Ucceah Před rokem +277

    if you find the ~2h battery life insufficient, just get a 10-15Ah power bank, and fix it to the back of the strap with velcro cable ties.
    this gives you 6-7h play time, and it acts as a counter weight, making the headset really comfortable to wear for longer periods of time

  • @northwiebesick7136
    @northwiebesick7136 Před rokem +7

    One thing that might help with the wearability and comfort of the quest 2, I haven't used a standard quest 2 so I don't know what that feels like, but I tried one my friend has with a 3rd party elite strap and a magnetic battery that goes behind your head, and seeing the product page for that it says it's supposed to balance the weight out a little bit better because of the extra hot swappable battery pack at the back of the head... Might try something like that for weight distribution. He also has a 3rd party anti-fog fan on his too, just in case, and a hard shell fabric case for on the go
    (Battery will also double your play time)
    **EDIT**
    I finally pulled the plug on buying one, and bought a HALO style headstrap to go with it, specifically the "BOBOVR M2 Pro" and love it compared to the original strap... To be perfectly honest, the original strap wasn't that bad, but since I had just shaved my head a week or two prior,(to save money on a haircut mainly) I found that the original strap felt like a tight rubber band around the crown of my head, that was constricting blood flow in the head area, and also felt, like even if I had hair, it would probably still feel like it was digging into my head, which the 3rd party strap just feels so much better all around at doing... Please, if you listened to my thoughts on the headstrap, also listen to this, which is, "everyone has different preferences, and the way things feel to one person doesn't mean that everyone else will have the same experience, so, please, while you get education from comments and reviews, use your own judgement on what's right for you"...

    I'd like to point out the Oculus Link feature. For $300, it's the best pcvr headset when you hook it up to your computer. Having 120hz on a $300 headset is insane, especially because it works wirelessly. Perfect starter pcvr headset if you don't want to drop 1k on the index.

    In my experience, motion sickness goes away with time. I only had it for like the first week and after that i have never had issues with it since. 1 fun thing people should try on the quest is to watch a moving youtube video and try to balance yourself on 1 leg and see if you can balance yourself or will your moving image throw you off.

      Motion sickness depends on the game, ive never had any issues in any flight sims, hl alyx,beat saber, Arizona sunshine or space pirate trainer with my htc Vive but damn i jumped into the HL2 vr mod released the other day and i got sick, really sick... I think its because of the walking vs teleport movement (im nts but i hope it supports the teleport like HL Alyx, havent had a chance to check) but it was really bad! I made the mistake of pushing it until it was too much then when i took of the headset it fully hit me like a truck and i had to go to bed and lie down! This is from someone who has a high tolerance with a good 15-20 hrs in vr a week of late.

    One thing I do recommend is getting the Elite Strap. For someone like me who has a big head, the original strap did not keep the quest steady when I had to move around a lot. This wasnt an issue with the original Quest as it had an amazing head strap that was easy to use. Also eye space adjustment was a downgrade, since on the Quest you can customize how far the space between the screens are, as opposed to the Quest 2 where you can only adjust it to 3 positions and its a pain to adjust it. Otherwise, get a Quest Link and youll have one of the best VR devices.

    Great video as always. One omission is that you didn't discuss the Q2's usage for PCVR (unless I missed it). Given that you have a powerful PC this is definitely something you should try - the Quest 2 makes up close to 50% of PCVR headsets right now, and its a good part of the reason I picked one up.
    I think all the growth is in standalone, with PCVR pretty stagnant right now (with a much smaller user base) but you're missing out if you don't try some of the great games available, such as Half-Life: Alyx.

    excellent video, you obviously worked hard on it. Really informative for someone like me who is just thinking about buying a headset unfortunately at a time when the Quest is $100 more than it used to be. So i need to be extra careful with my purchase this time.

    There are only a few channels that I take their opinion at face value you're one of them I like how you give honest and actual information and it's not just you screaming for 16 minutes go by this if I wanted that I would have watched the commercial for it I bought an Oculus quest 2 an alarm to my friend said that the novelty wears off pretty quick but they also said that you can do a lot more than just play games and they said by novelty wears off they basically mean it's still good they still glad they buy it but after a while it's like okay this is cool but it could be cooler

    I really suggest you get the more expensive elite head strap. Comfort wise it is night and day and they all should of shipped with the elite head strap. I can comfortably have the headset on for a entire movie with the better strap.

    Got one as a Christmas gift. I was unsure on the whole VR experience, but 3D-encoded movies (transferred over) look spectacular, almost like the viewing experience at a theater with those plastic glasses. The files are huge though, most running between 14-25GB. I opted for the 256GB model and am glad I did. I don't know what my long-term usage will look like, but as far as games go, Beat Saber is obviously a nice fluid rhythm game. Didn't care much for RE4's control and layout. I played it on the PS2 and Wii.
    I do have the BoboVR M2 Plus kit coming tomorrow. The default strap is horrendous if you have long(er) hair and glasses.

  • @DerekFolan
    @DerekFolan Před rokem

    The Rocky boxing game I played at Christmas was Fun. You see the potential. I would say that meta verse is worth getting involved with. Ideas for games that could work are Acting a Movie game since you can record your voice and arm movements, Anything swords or sabers, tamagotchi VR, Gunner on a vehicle or space ship, Quiz shows, Parachute, Joisting, Horse Race, Concert management sim, Management SIM, Avatar rentals, Dating & Meet-ups apps, Drive, Lego VR, Dance off or TikTok app, They should link up with 'making a choice game makers' such as super massive games who made 'Until Dawn' which is where the gamer makes a choice or reacts to quick time events for an interactive movie game.

    a great device. The battery life could be bette but overall this is a good device. Better than all other VRs. I use it less and less 6 months later but its still family fun when we do use it. And cast each other’s games and scores. The charging can be better also but to me this is the beginning of Vr and the quest 2 is ahead of its time.

  • @FlytheBIGones
    @FlytheBIGones Před rokem

    just wondering, does the eye-glass guard, or whatever its called, push the oculus visuals slightly away from your face, and could this be a good thing for comfort? Have you found that some things are blury and the headset needs constant adjustment? Or is that me?

    • @6MonthsLater
      @6MonthsLater  Před rokem

      It does, but you’ll get more light leakage from the nose gap. If things look blurry typically what I do is first, get a microfiber cloth and clean the lenses themselves, sometimes that alone will fix it and I just didn’t notice a small buildup on the lens. When I first put the headset on I need to adjust it to get it as clear as possible. If you’re finding you constantly need to make adjustments, I’d look at the strap and make sure it’s tight in a way that the headset isn’t able to make slight shifts during play. Also, the lenses themselves can move (horizontally), so make sure they’re alignment is correct for your eyes and didn’t accidentally get knocked into a different setting. Hope those steps help - Josh

    • @Dazza2292
      @Dazza2292 Před rokem +1

      The larger the model, the more you can store on the device before running out of space. If your solely playing via pc vr it won't matter but I guarantee you'll end up with quest standalone games. I have the 64gb and ran out of space installing almost 30 games so it's not massively bad

    Meta quest should come with a ring that can isolate your body from your environment, where you can freely walk and bounce around
    This endless ring so you don’t harm yourself. I saw this in the early 2000 in VR games in a mall and I don’t get why this isn’t happening atm.

    so the High School where I work at has 10 of these oculus quest 2 devices. Where do I start, I wanna teach a VR class in the summer. The school told me that I can get any game I want to use for the kids. All the devices are apple in the school. Sorry for all the questions but where do I go to download games, do I need the app in the iPads and Mac computers for the kids to use oculus? How do I connect them to a big screen so I can see what they are doing? Can 10 kids join the same lesson or they all need to do it individually? What are some good learning games or educational games to buy or rent for the kids to use? Trying to create lesson plans for the kids do in the Sumer. the summer program is only 4 weeks.

    I'd love to know if 128gb is fine for a casual player. My thinking for usage on this device would be Beat Saber, a couple of other games, and perhaps Supernatural. Should I stretch the budget to go 256gb? How big are the games usually?

    • @6MonthsLater
      @6MonthsLater  Před rokem +4
