- This is the Varjo XR3, legit the best VR and XR headset I have ever used. Some of my experiences in this video could be categorized as a life changing experience, especially in the Virtual World. This was one of the coolest devices I have ever used. I want to thank Foxguard solutions for letting me borrow this headset for a while to make a video. They are a reseller of Varjo products.

guess i was right to hold for vr to get better. if i buy a lynx at the start. iguess by the time i'll want another one maybe this or even better will be available :D
pog
You aint streaming bro. what time?
That was another cool vid. Really didn't expect a sort of uncanny valley effect from the passthrough but it makes so much sense.
Clearly you haven't tried a Hololens. It does mixed reality rather well. Unfortunately, it doesn't do full VR. But the resolution and immersion is similar. In fact, when playing their demo game I was actually creeped out when I saw the dude hanging out behind the couch in my living room. Can't remember the name, fragments maybe? Anyhow that was the H1. Never tried an H2.

For anyone wondering it's not just that there is a sharp screen in the middle, it has full eye tracking and the sharp area moves whenever you look. Also the XR thing is really where it shines. I thought VR for training scenarios was a bit gimmicky, but with these glasses you can slap a green screen in front of you and a tracker to your real tools, then see the tools and your own arms and interact with the virtual environment (tool being tracked and simulated in VR) and it's such a real but weird portal between realities experience.
Duuuuude with the eye tracking you can make scp containment breach vr or Minecraft VR even more realistic that would be so fucking cool.
So how does the pupil swim work if it has eye tracking? Does that mean the tracking isn't always perfect or the screens don't always line up fast enough?
Or does pupil swim happen at the edges of lenses no matter what tracking you do with screens, etc
You need a greenscreen?
@@nascarjake787 Pretty sure your own biological eyes "wobble" when they suddenly come to a stop after darting in whichever direction you just directed them. It's kind of ironic to ask VR to filter this out since VR typically wants to replicate reality as closely as possible.
@@Acenthus I am terrified and excited for the inevitable future when running away from SCP-173 in VR is a thing and you have to actually try not to blink.
I knew VR was amazing even years before I actually tested it, and even then it amazed me. Right now I know it has a lot more to offer, not just better resolutions, refresh rates or a mix with AR, but to take us to a new world leaving us speechless. I wonder where will tech lead us in 10 years.
"Lawn Mower Man", must have got loose. Now he's really causing trouble. Way too much fun. 😉
@@wild-hourthegamecat1266 Wow blast from the past, thanks for this reminder finally have a movie now to watch with the wife tonight ^.^
This dude has been living and breathing VR for years and he still managed to get surprised? That's a good sign, I guess the future of VR is looking pretty bright once this type of hardware is available for mainstream adoption.
Give it 20 years
@@garionprak7961 What was vr looking like 10 years ago? Was Oculus rift and HTC Vive even out then? I, like pretty much everyone else thinks it will come sooner.
@@caenir Oculus Rift launched in 2016, so it's only been 5 years. FIVE! Assuming that technology advances quicker (as it seems to), I guess that a headset of this caliber might be buyable for the general public in 3-5 years.
I would so love to have a headset like this. I imagine you need an AMAZING PC to use it though.
@Robert Sears Why would a company pay him off to say positive things about an industry grade headset not meant for consumer use? This isnt meant for regular people to buy, or enthusiasts. Its like comparing a gaming computer to a room sized super computer. One is obviously way more powerful, but is in no way meant for consumer use. Anyone planning to buy this headset likely works for a corporation, and this form of advertisement is the least effective way of getting their target demographic to bite.
Think of it this way; does it benefit the rich? It would benefit the rich of people bought lots of headsets. But who is buying the headsets? Other rich people, or rich companies. Would some random VR hobbyists testimonial be enough to convince a team to choose this over something else? Likely not. Would other methods of advertisement, like an in person demonstration, in depth video by the company itself, or money backed trial period? Probably more than the testimonial.
It's all about the cost. It's still WAAAY too expensive for it to really break through. The original idea that Oculus had was better. Remember they claimed that the set would be priced as a monitor. But what we got was way more expensive and it's not only the set, you also likely have to upgrade or buy a new rig.
So, you could argue that it's volume and as more people buy it, it will become cheaper. This is true, however in this case it would already have happened so the ball is back with the manufacturers. If they want this to become a real thing, they have to make it affordable and available to a wider audience.
Before that, it's just a novelty.
I have used "XR" headsets like that in industry conventions, we use them for flight training in the military. The passthrough cameras are used in conjunction with a physical sim cockpit to display the cockpit through the passthrough cameras, and renders everything outside the cockpit in VR. It really is the best of both worlds.
Imagine that set-up with Star Wars: Rogue Squadron type of game.
That's my next flight sim setup. Just gotta wait a few more years.
Wow that sounds super fun
XTAL?
I'd done that at an airshow and I'm 13 and It was so realistic.
This doesn’t really have anything to do with the video, but I’d like to thank you, Thrill, for convincing me to get a headset. I got an Oculus quest 2 at the beginning of 2021 after watching your videos, and I can’t imagine not having one. Games like Population 1, Beat Saber, Job Simulator and more have become some of my favorite games and I want to thank you for convincing me to get one. You’re the man, man.
Same here, you took the words right out of my mouth
man,
man.
Same for me but 2019 and for quest 1
same here, but I only play free games I’m broke now lol
@@introvurtl same
but i vomitted instead
Had my first VR experience today I was speechless that’s why I’m watching this now! Amazing but very scary
trying vr for the first time is such an unforgettable experience
@@benjamina6618 it's like the switch from 2D to 3D in a game like Mario 64. I actually had a point of comparison with that playing one of the free psvr games. Forget the name but was a bit like Mario (I think there were little robots) and at one point I found myself ducking down because I was INSIDE the level and thought I would bash my head on the scenery.
Metaquest? I just got one and was speechless too
If you get chance, play Half Life: Alyx all the way through. Even after having VR for years I had legit memories for weeks after that I can only describe as the kind of memories you have from visiting a real place.
I've been looking for a VR headset that takes the "next step" in VR for a long time! Obviously not going to spend $8000 on it but the fact that it exists is good enough for me, it means the future is looking incredible for VR
Pimax is coming out with a standalone for $2300 soon
@@grotthemighty7480 Apple 8k AR headset w/ 12 cams + LIDAR will be ~$3k also and should be quite an immersive experience

The day this kind of stuff is “standard” and available/affordable for consumers will be so friggin glorious.
Many thought the same thing 5-10 years ago about tech now available for 300 bucks.

true...but theres always something better we wish to have,we used to wish we had something like a beytter phone,then phone vr,then rlly old exspensive vr,normal vr,and then the quest 2,and now after getting this all were gona want is full dive vr
@@connormessenger4756 Quest 2 is actually good enough for mainstream VR today. The problem with Quest 2 is on the software side. The market has completely stalled. I'm still playing games that are a year old. Half Life Alex was cutting edge and then......NOTHING! Sure, you can see where improvements in headsets will make things better but what good is it without new software?
@@ENCXBG1 I disagree with the quest 2 being good enough. What'd actually be good enough, is a headset comparable or better without Facebook integration. Ideally a more or less open source one so people could upgrade it themselves. That would be good enough.
But I say that as a pcvr user, wishing I could just upgrade my rift to something more, and as a person who despises Facebook.
This makes me so grateful for being born at such an exciting time in human history, The odds alone of being here are mind boggling. Can't wait to witness the future.
That’s if you live that long
Yeah, the odds are even crazier if you think "the great filter" is awaiting us soon. I am so glad I was born now, on the birth and rise of technology
@@Matyanson the great filter started. It's called climate change
Almost like... It's a simulation 😬
"grateful for being born at such an exciting time in human history" You should read Byong Shu Han.
Future is not that exciting, maybe for some people who wishes to run from reality at all.
Cant wait for in 2-5 years "I put my friend inside a vr headset while he was sleeping and he still hasnt noticed"
“I felt a full phantom sense experience while I touched this mannequin all through out my room, I felt tingles all throughout my fingers” god I love this channel
Yeah I like this channel too
@@arukas2731 you gonna say that to people who lost limbs? they have a phantom sense to where there limb is, they can feel it moving, you think they're high and smoking something?
@@arukas2731 the brain doesn't always get things right. Optical illusions are a prime example of this. Feeling phantom touch in VR is like the next step up from optical illusions. It's tricking the brain into feeling touch. Not everyone feels it, but I assure you, it is a real thing!
@@arukas2731 ur just mad u don't have it lol
@@arukas2731 i don't feel it either and i think it has to do with something. if you grew up with realistic looking videogames so people around 1990 until present day, it is less likely because your brain is already kind of used to it in a sense, just my theory
Seeing this as a Quest 2 user is what I imagine it would have felt like if in 2001 while playing my PS2 you told me the PS5 already existed and I could get one for $7500
lol
Accurate

@@pielovervi accurate
Don't forget to add in the $ for a beast PC on that amount.
I have only had that feeling of true phantom sense once, and it is a memory that I don't think will ever forget it. It happened within the first month or 2 of me having my headset and I felt someone's tail brush against my knee in VRChat. That was all that it was, but that feeling of something virtual touching you is so much better than you can possibly imagine if you haven't experienced it. Since then I have been trying to get that feeling again, but I have yet to even approach a fraction of that feeling, and it has been nearly a year now. If this is where VR tech it at right now, I am ecstatic for the future of VR as a whole, to finally be so immersed that I can finally feel that feeling once again
"Someone's tail" this earth is so gay.
were you looking directly at the tail that brushed against your leg?
@@drakebell6784 same lmao
@@samblack7500 Yeah I was looking directly at it. I wasn't even paying attention to it or trying to feel anything, and then suddenly they turned, it brushed against my leg, and I felt it instantaneously as if it had actually happened
@@adicsbtw I guess it's similar to Phantom Limb Syndrome where someone may expect a feeling to happen if something touches them, when in reality there's nothing there
As a Varjo Aero user for 12 months, Id upgrade to the VR3 or XR3 in an instant if I didnt have to pay the yearly license. I cant wait for this kind of experience for the consumer, at a better price point. We should really congratulate Varjo for really pushing the Vr tech way beyond anyone else on the scene.
27th of November there is an announcement. Wait for it, let’s see what happens.
Damn. Imagine what we'll have when THIS becomes affordable.
I think 5 years from now, we'll be seeing a lot more "ready player one"-like entertainment spaces at not entirely horrendous prices. For me though, this tech specifically seems to be a very real possibility for stand in machines. Things like surgery, or even something like controlling a Boston Dynamic machine. AI isn't quite where we want it yet, so I think the first step is stand in machinery.
@@TalonsRebellion AI is long ways away from successfully interacting with real life casuistries. We are almost there in well paved, pedestrian restricted, acceptably straight roads, which is probably the most controlled real life environment there is.
I think you are spot on.
Full dive is beinged worked on. There's "half dive" out now
lucid dreaming exists you know
for free
Me: Sells a kidney to buy this headset.
Also Me: Freaks out the moment I realize I need to sell a lung to afford the computer necessary to run the headset.
Bro said a lung 😂🤣
Still you have to sell something more for the yearly subscription...
@@viktorianas what
@@jamparke the headset cost a yearly subscription to use.
Good thing we have 2 of each.
They need to make gloves that have pressure inside, resistance and temperature changes. So when you touch that body, you really touch that body.

@@fladave99 good technology isn't stupid... dont project your own insecurities
@@fladave99 ok redditor.
Haptic feedback is a bit harder than realistic visuals for some reason.
There are many haptic devices to do that
I remember my first experience with VR was at an arcade when I was on vacation. I had to stand inside of a pad with this ring around me. Leaning into the ring cause my boxing character to lean left or right. The guy running the arcade told me that punching was just little jabs from me and not to actually go punching the air. This was when I was a kid in the 90s. VR has come a long way.
When plasma tv's originally came out they were like $15k at Sears. Crazy to think what's to come in VR.
And Plasma sucked lol. Had to be weary of the dreaded image burn. Where if the tv was left on a menu or frozen image for too long that image would be burnt into the screens background. Seen it happen a handful of times. Horrible for gaming.
With advancement in technology and loads of R&D the prices of headsets will come down. I can honestly think if I owned a VR company my goal would be to make a headset that costs the same price as a top spec computer as I believe VR headsets will replace computers.
You can't even give away a plasma tv anymore. A pawn shop won't even take a TV more than 4 years old, or close to that. The next step in television is holographic tables like that chess game in Star Wars. I bet it's right around the corner.
@@tycoonhunter an actual computer will always have the advantage of being larger and easier to cool what's more likely is wireless vr tech will get a lot better.
@@batt3ryac1d Easier to cool as in the device not overheating? & I disagree but I am interested in learning as to why you think that. A VR headset is actually much better than a monitor. Anything that we can do on the traditional computer we will be able to do with a VR headset which will have a much better user experience.
Its so nice to hear that, "that feeling" is possible again. There's nothing like losing your VRginity.
this is so true
Imagine someone trying VR for the first time with a headset like this, might be even more of a religious experience. But having used the DK2 and experienced the progress with each generation is a treat as well, it's sort of like getting better glasses and seeing your vision improve.
Wowowowowowowowow
First headset I put on was the Oculus Go so wouldn’t be as amazing as high quality PCVR headsets
Same my first was a go
I love when a finnish company makes one of the most advanced tech gadgets and then proceed to use a basic supermarket as a showcase piece :DD
its meant to collect consumer data, and finding out where customers look first, and help supermarkets and shops with product placement
Supermarkets also contain lots of small text and details, which are a great way to showcase the screen sharpness.
Moomin supermarket
Because finnish are rather depressed and sad, super market is about as cheerful of an experience as you can get
Odd stereotype for statistically one of the happiest populations on Earth.
Fun fact: The Varjo company is from Finland and the word "varjo" means shadow.
"It's just out of reach of everyone that actually wants it."... That was so incredibly depressing because it's so damn true.
Meh, give it a bit, if they are successful on the business side and see hype out there they likely will have a consumer version in the future. With business/industry, you can make a decent profit on each unit but with consumer products generally you are trying to make up your lack of profit margin with shear volume. So if you don't have the infrastructure to produce a ton or you arent sure Joe public wants a few million of your product its hard to justify trying it (at a reasonable price)
The fact that i will probably never get the chance to even test one of the good vrs out there is just sad to me
It’s called saving. You can make it happen if you sacrifice with discipline.
@@Dziaji From reading through the comments it seems like everyone missed the part where he said the company also makes a model without XR for half the price. I personally know very little about XR I'll use ignorance is bliss as an advantage do some saving with the tax return covering the rest.
With so many people unwilling to work this is one of the best times to get a high paying job. My experience and skills is about to make my life A LOT more comfortable when I start next week. People can even aim low and work fast food since many are offering $20.00 an hour and a 1k signing bonus.

If this is something the public can purchase, imagine what’s already in the development labs and not cheap enough for the market… yet🤯
Full body suit
@@johngonzalez3634 For the nut room
exactly, like military grade devices.
@@rodolfomusillo103 Lol “military grade” means it’s the cheapest made while still meeting minimum contract specifications; essentially a mass produced product that has to undergo constant repairs.
Although, I do know what you’re trying to say. It’s just such a common incorrectly used term because it’s used to market products to the average consumer. Whenever a vet sees a product marketed as “military grade” they laugh.
To be fair, a lot of lab stuff is also pretty shit. I mean, very cool on a technical level, but very often the reason something isn't being sold isn't price (if you price it high enough you can find enough high end enthusiast buyers to make up for your production costs), but just that you can't figure out a way to make the thing you're creating comfortable, reliable or useful enough for such high end experiences.
Combine this with full body tracking, omni directional treadmill, and sound cancelling headphones, and haptic gloves and body suits and then you'll be in a whole new world at that point.
Combine all that for a kidney
@@danthovict381 So long as they just need the one. . .
3 words: ready. Player. One
and then you realize that you don't have enough room for the omni directional treadmill and buying more space is 100x-1000x more expensive then even this headset
sound cancelling headphones is the opposite of what you want, get some open backed headphones and soundproof the room so the audio sounds properly natural. good open backs are like VR for your ears.
I absolutely can not wait for anything full dive related if tech keeps on evolving like this. I just hope we get to experience it in our lives.
I need to be honest. This is some of the most mindblowing technology out there, and if what Thrill says is true, and I have no reason to doubt, then VR is gonna go places we can't ever imagine. But something about that scares me. I had an experience playing Vader Immortal on a relative's Quest, and the way the virtual hands were bound to the virtual space, and my mind associating those as _my_ hands, led me to a trippy situation afterwards, where my hands... didn't feel like my hands. It was kind of a realization that made me wonder just how much I want to be immersed in virtual worlds. I know it's a cheesy sci-fi concept about forgetting what's real and what isn't, but it's something I'm kind of worried about. I don't want my perception of physical reality to be completely dependent on technology. I'm not saying no to anything in this video, but I just... idk.
I'd take living in a virtual world than the one we are currently in.
@@udalix LOL THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I'M WORRIED ABOUT???
(But I get you reality is hard)
This is very relatable, but not because I tried VR or AR, but because I dissociate. This feeling is something I live with a lot of the time and it is scary. So I think I'm kind of immune to having reality shifted by good VR lol
When you're new to VR it has that effect, when I got full body tracking and got on VRchat, the next few days I would wake up in the middle of the night and pat my bed and move my arms around and not really be sure if what I was looking at was real, it was an interesting experience. You get used to it.
@@colbyboucher6391 At the same time though I sometimes wonder that a utopia can arise from VR and affect society for the better. People are heavily judged for the way they look. To have a place where you're not prejudged would make a big difference. Though of course its a double edged sword as always where deception can be extra easy.. For the most part I see VR as a positive thing for humanity.
these type of headsets, the overly expensive ones, i just cant emphasize how important they are in my eyes. Showing what CAN be possible for consumers in the future. It’s amazing.
@@Saintedlight yeah so long it will become generalized like what happened around 2010 when conventional phone are being replaced by a smart phones and now look at the price for smartphone right now with good spec u can get already good speckl with low price. So long people want to accept the changes
@@Saintedlight they didn't even exist 20 years ago not sure what your talking about
@@Saintedlight Indeed we won't buy This headset in five years. We will buy the newest consumer grade headset in 5 years. We want the experience like this now, at $800. So, this Varjo headset has caused us to create a demand for the experience, but cheaper. If somebody releases similarly or better performing headset at $800 in five years, they get our money. The $8000 Varjo headset is extremely important today, because it shows what is possible. So in five years we don't want to buy this headset, but the latest generation consumer grade headset that the $8000 headset of today helped create. Now it's just up to the engineers to pursue this kind of performance for cheaper. And they will, because the companies want our money.
@@Saintedlight You also need to realize the R&D isn’t free, they need to recoup their costs and then also make profit so they can continue R&D. I get where you are coming from as a consumer but when you can understand the other side it makes sense why they must price it at where it’s at. It’s high enough on the market vs demand graph.

@@jayphilipps3904 For future reference that type of VR is from Ready Player One. Great book you should totally read it movie was alright.
sure, make a lower-end headset thats consumer focused (less features) and price it at whatever price range seems reasonable. but if theres one thing i never want to see in VR, its a subscription model for anything other than cloud game streaming.
I don't even get what's the subscription for. We already buy the headset, why do I need to pay more?
its a business thing , even most business software is subscription. and this probably also covers in the chance if it breaks they have 24/7 service and maybe replace it right away because in business if something isn't working your not making money.
@@bagusamartya5325 Subscription model tends to be the best for generating maximum revenue per customer. That's why many companies like online games, streaming sites, online retailers, hell even landlords do a subscription model. It gives the consumer a feeling of "oh that's not that much, I can afford that" in the short term and the chance of someone going back and adding all their subscription prices is low so they will likely never even realize that in the long term its more like "oh my god I payed so much for this, I wish I could have just bought it outright."
yeah hate that
Or subscription to rent it for a reasonable price.

You're not joking, I clicked this video just thinking "oh it'll just be some cool specs or something" but thrill is my main source of vr news so I've built a lot of trust with his channel, therefore this made me want this even though I've always been happy with a cheap quest with no computer link (I have a cheap laptop)
So ya, I hope they can make this tech more common and consumer friendly because I want to experience this someday
Wow, I'm not even into VR but watching how genuinely excited you were about this product makes wanna look into it. Haha..that company was wise to trust you with that. Good job.
Everyone is into VR, they just don't all know it ;p
Horror games will never be the same when these VR headsets become the norm.
Some real heart attacks will take place!
I am a huge VR fan as well. I was already hooked when beat saber came out but when I tried Half Life Alyx for the first time, my mind was blown. I didn't know the graphics could be as good as playing on a desktop PC and in some instances it was even better. It's not really about just the graphics alone but it's the experience as a whole. Simple things such as a broken bottle, I would never bother to pick up or interact with when playing on desktop, but in VR, I would get close to everything, try to touch and pick up everything that I could, even holding objects in my hand and spin them around to look at them. Something as simple as reloading became difficult because I have to watch what's coming at me, try to move away, all the while trying to get the magazine in to properly reload. This changes the gameplay for me because I would always reload after a few shots, because there was no penalty for doing so, just click a button and you can't fail to reload. However, in this game, I would lose out on unused bullets (which is also a feature implemented in non-VR games so nothing special here) and if I'm not precise enough, I could fail to reload the first time, which means I'm rushing now. All of this combined really transforms the experience of playing something that's practically a simple FPS.
Even games with not so good graphics such as The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners, became very scary playing on just the Oculus Quest even though the graphics were not anywhere near realistic. It's the environment that you lose yourself in that makes the VR experience unforgettable to me. Playing a horror game on a monitor can be scary and sure you may jump a few times here and there, but you see your surroundings, your desk, your cup of water, you can always "escape" the horror in the game. However, when you have that VR headset on, everywhere you look, you're IN the game environment and even that alone really changes the experience.
I know there are vests and gloves that add to the immersion but my hope is that one day VR not only means a visual sensation but an all-encompassing touch and feel experience as well.
My biggest issue with VR is the lack of peripheral vision, this could solve that
Valve Index changed that for me
@@draxxsklounst6595 yeah the valve index helped a ton with that
@@draxxsklounst6595 Definitely not, the field of view on the index is still horrible for me, I dont get immersed just see the tunnel on the edge :/
It's not clear why you think this would help with that, but it won't. As others have hinted but not quite said outright, the spec that determines your periphery is the "Field of View" or FOV, which is only 115 degrees on this headset. That's lower than several other options. If you're really serious about FOV, maybe check out the Pimax headsets, which have 200 degree FOV.
@@beeopper Did you zoom the lens close to your eyes? You can bring it closer to your actual eyes and I barely even notice I am wearing the headset
It’s this type of advancement in technology that gets me excited to see where we go in the future. I cant wait for headsets of this caliber being shown as the norm in everyday life. Thank you so much Thrill for getting me into VR. Without all your amazing content, I would’ve never been so interested in VR and I probably wouldn’t have my Quest 2 right now either. Keep up the amazing content man ❤️
This makes me feel really good about "lower-end" tech getting a significant enhancement in the near future. Mainly, I would be happy just getting rid of the screen door effect.
Screen door effect? Wat that mean
@@wannydane When in a game it can seem like your looking through a screen door. This is because of the pixels distance from each other, so the farther it is the higher the effect.
The way they do tiny, higher resolution screen for the center of your vision is absolutely genius, especially because that's where you notice the screen door the most

This is so promising, and I invoke the First Law of Papers, that we should look 2 more papers (or headsets) down the line and see what we're headed to. Because by the time I graduate college and get the engineering job that I want, this tech might be affordable enough to get for myself. my first time putting on a Rift CV1 and playing Superhot VR at a VR rental was already so mind-blowing, and 2 more headsets down the line I will get to experience that all again. It seems like such an experience to not be able to tell the difference between physical reality and virtual reality.

Well I was looking at the specs for the VR3 which is 3500, and outside of missing the pass through cameras and hand tracking via them, the VR3 should have the exact same visuals as the XR3, just without all the AR macguffins. Might wanna look into that. Although I am sure in a year or two a consumer products around 1k will feature this type of display.
You also have to have a subscription to use it even after the initial purchase price shock which is also not cheap.
I've been into VR for 3+ years now and I have always said it's going to be the future. There's just way too much potential for ingenuity and artistry and creators will eventually see that. I will never buy an 8000 dollar headset, but knowing this tech is being researched and designed makes me happy. VR is going to just keep getting better and better.

@@Hosenbund1 I only clicked on it to warn people
This just reminds me of my frustration with VR. The second I tried a Google cardboard I knew this would be the future of entertainment. Sadly, companies will not make the investment in VR tech unless it makes them billions right now. VR will not take over until headsets like the Varjo become mainstream and this headset can't get cheap enough to go mainstream until we get the market big enough to support it.
It's actually incredibly short sighted by the tech companies. They test the waters with inferior products and then abandon the tech when it doesn't get huge market share. HELLO!? We are all sitting here waiting for the real good stuff! We can see the flaws that have to be overcome and want the real deal.
The problem is the investment required, the tech for a long time was still too unclear for any comapany to bother, only giants like facebook and google could really afford the sort of R&D needed to get it very far. Companies jumped on the band wagon in the past for a bit because they could just take established tech and mix it around, but once things got complicated there was no way for most companies to afford it. Only now that facebook is starting to get stupid amounts of money is it starting to get worth the cost of investing again, because there is now a baseline for vr tech to climb up from.
Enter Meta
It feels like we’re getting closer to full dive technology, if we can trick the mind into thinking it’s feeling things, and even the fact that it’s hard to distinguish real from virtual is just astonishing. Cant wait to see what the future of vr has for us all.

Yeah we will. We will literally be in the same room, looking at ourselves. I think future tech brings us a new way to reflect on ourselves, just like psychology and philosophy and such, but this will be motivating on a different level. Kids today gets repeatedly 60 secs of facts or fiction and reflects their life in it because of the right amount of "get-entertained-without-effort". Now this.. this really makes me optimistic about human kind. It also worries me that you can replace reality for an agenda that fits a certain view. I might be a bit biased, but I think "tighter" nations could a serious level of thought control. It would be more desirable to convince people of a certain truth than supress them with physical means.

I just bought my first VR set (Oculus Quest 2) about 4 days ago at about 3/2/2022 (3/6 now) after researching for a good year, and not really having the extra to spend on an HTC Vive.
I can still safely say that I was and still blown away, while I know that feeling may leave eventually.... I didn't get the HUGE Hype around it and seeing everyone on twitch stream stuff sure it looked cool but didn't see the hype till I got my very own. First of all, I've been "disabled" (Not full functionality of my lower extremities due to high levels of chronic pain & chronic pain of my lower back) and when I put it on, go into like a boxing game or beat saber. I am blown away at how quickly I can feel that escape and actually have been ducking, moving in beat saber, I can feel just a smidge of weight loss already comparative to almost 4 years of no ability to work out. I tested it, I took it off and just tried a youtube workout, 4 pushups, 2 situps, and like 3-4 minutes of moving with the YT workout and I was done, but yesterday (3/5) I think the quest 2 tagged me at about 40 minutes of "move time" and about 600 calories burned. I was and still BLOWN AWAY at that. Of course the day later I am like owwwwwwwwww I hurtttttt, but it's nuts....
That’s amazing dude. Keep it up :)

Something like this headset shown here is proof that VR is still progressing at an amazing rate, and im so excited to see what VR will have for us in the future.
I’d love to use this to play a horror game designed for it. Imagine walking around your house or outside without fear of tripping over something or getting injured but then the game starts to insert hyper realistic people and you don’t know who is real or who isn’t and every now and then the walls start to bleed but then stop when you do a double take. When you look in a mirror your reflection moves on its own or you start to see silhouettes in windows and stuff. It would be the single greatest horror thrill on earth and it could work in any environment at any time you want it to
VR horror could be a fast track to hurting your soul. Be careful. Playing with demons has consequences that are only truly revealed when you tell them to leave.

It brings to mind “Ready Player One”.
Literally set to be meta's business model; squeeze the remaining and existing time people aren't on their phones into VR so all waking hours are profitable, dodgy territory!
I REALLY hope they produce a consumer version of this with no subscription. It sounds like the holy grail of VR currently and it is a shame that it is out of reach for the majority of VR enthusiasts.
Right now it seems intended for businesses, the subscription is pennies compared to how much most companies that need this stuff actually make. My guess is the subscription is used to continue funding the development of this headset so it can be as cheap as possible when it starts getting sent to average consumers who aren't billion-dollar companies.
I am reminded of a video essay about the origins of VR, y'know, the in-place, sitting down stuff. And there was a big push for VR as the next medium past aracades. And that was cutting edge at the time. So hearing you describe the march of progress from the current, extravagant, prototype-level technology, and knowing that we have come so far and have yet so much to experience is so encouraging.
*"...the origins of VR, y'know, the in-place, sitting down stuff."*
"In-place, sitting down" is not just the _origins_ of Virtual Reality, it's one of many possible ways to experience VR. I can't make this more clear:
_Everyone who believes that VR means "Wii-style motion control" is _*_sorely confused,_*_ and does not understand what VR is._
Furthermore, this Wii motion control mentality is a significant part of the reason why VR has failed to become more popular and _finally_ succeed_ as many people flat-out assumed it would ~8 years ago.
VR is --- and has always been --- defined by sensory _input_ --- by how information is _received_ by an individual. When it comes to _output_ or control, there are many possible alternatives, each one depending upon the desired experience and circumstances. Examples include:
> Keyboard and mouse
> Console-style gamepad
> Steering wheel and pedals, etc. (Driving/Racing sims)
> Flight Yoke, rudder pedals, etc. (Flight sims)
> Specialized inputs for purpose-built installations
> Motion controls
> Matrix-style direct neural link
I think the ultimate experience will be when we can link with some kind of neural interface like in Ghost in the shell. Instead of simulating an experience, we can actually experience it to the closest level of reality.
*"...some kind of neural interface like in Ghost in the shell."*
With respect, I think the reference "like The Matrix" would be understood by at least ten times more people."

I mean a VR experience so real, that your brain can't tell that it's fake and fill in the gaps with fake feelings of touch... It's truly mind-blowing and kinda made me even more hyped about VR !
Once haptic controllers become more popular, that phantom sense would be even more terrifyingly real. Not only would our brain anticipate and simulate phantom touch from interacting with realistic objects. But the haptics would make it seem even more real, seaming together those slight inconsistencies.
