    Thanks @reggietchang for letting me borrow his camera after mine broke.
    Thanks. @monoham1 for lending me his DK2 and Quest.
    This video was a passion project that I had been putting off for some time. For the past two months, I kept telling myself that I just needed one more week to complete it. Although the video is not perfect, I finally had to let it go and share it with the world. There were so many things I wanted to add and change, but at some point, you have to release your creation into the world. Even if I worked on this video for another year, I still wouldn't be satisfied with it.
    Originally, the video was five hours long, but I managed to cut it down to two hours and then one hour. The project was enormous, and my head was full of VR stuff. I had 506GB of raw footage, and my Davinci Resolve project was so massive that it kept crashing. To manage it, I had to divide it into nine separate projects, but even then, they would still crash. During the shooting, my camera broke halfway through, and I had to use a replacement camera with a buzzing microphone, so I had to dub over the footage. The audio mixing was a nightmare, with more than 10 different audio inputs and mics and nine projects to mix, but I finally got there. I had a blast learning about VR and the history of oculus. This video was so much fun and challenging to make.

      It's more like, Valve and more specifically Gabe Newell could see the potential that VR had, and how far Oculus would have to go from what they were shown. They weren't entirely interested in hopping into the market right off the bat. And personally, I think that was a smart move. They struck at the perfect time with the Valve Index and made one of the most popular PCVR headsets out there nowadays.

      *this is off topic and not related to the first part of my comment* there are similar videos/ time line that focus on another section of tech such as smartphones, I personally knew many things were happening in parallel to the oculus timeline. I would like to see a total timeline of the growth of all consumer tech from CPUs, to Phones, to Headsets to see how things evolved over time in coorellation to other tech

  • @KawaiiRazorBlade
    @KawaiiRazorBlade Před rokem +5

    To add some more history, the inter period between the launch of the quest 1 to quest 2 was crazy, alot of people wanted the quest 1 but FB stopped production to get ready to sell the quest 2, so resellers were selling quest 1s for almost triple the rrp. I feel like those who only got into vr during the quest 2 really missed the early vr community and the fun and theories that were going on at the time, it feels like there was more innovation. Still happy to see more people in the community and enjoying the thing that many people have dedicated their life to

      Yeah definitely i remember the time but for me i was unsure if i should get a rift s or wait for quest 2. There are lots i had to leave out of the vid because it would go forever. The hardest thing to cut was what happened between the DK2 and CV1. They built tonnes of controller prototypes and headset prototypes. Im sure there is lots more innovation in VR to come we will see if Apples headset lives up to the hype but unsure if the huge leaps will come from META.

    Looks like the Quest Pro finally made inside-out tracking work and the Quest 3 is similar, just without face tracking. Hope the latency and compression artifacts are okay when using it as PCVR. I really wish I could just plug it straight in.

I’m now a vr enthusiast I really believe in the technology. Even though stand-alone is what got me into vr I do wish meta didn’t ditch the whole pcvr community I want more AAA titles but I understand why they did this. Thank you for the history in the beginning too I’m sure this video will make people appreciate vr and not see it as a silly metaverse that may never happen.

      Hey there, thanks for sharing your story about how you fell in love with VR! It was similar for me once i tried a rift s i was just hooked! It's awesome to see how much you've grown as a VR enthusiast, from your first Quest 1 to now owning an Index, Quest 2, and even a Kat Walk C i have always wondered if they are worth it ive never tried one! .
      Thanks for the nice words about the video providing some historical context and helping people to appreciate VR more. I thought it was important to understand where VR came from in order to better appreciate where it's going.
      And while it's true that Meta's focus on standalone VR may have left some PCVR enthusiasts feeling left out, it's important to remember that the goal is to make VR more accessible to everyone. With continued innovation and development, I'm sure we'll see amazing experiences and games on all platforms. I wish they would make a headset powerful enough to play VR games with a full operating systems like there holocake 2 prototype.
      Anyway, keep on enjoying VR and exploring all the incredible possibilities it has to offer!

    I own and still daily use the CV1 just based on the fact that it's still running after 5 years of use, and nothing is broken on it. Plus, I think the CV1 controllers are the best ever controllers on a VR headset. I have a Quest 2 for about a year, but after having the CV1 for so long, the Quest 2 just feels front-heavy. Additionally, with the CV1, you can take off the headphones since they are magnetically attached, making it easy to use your PC headphones, which I do. It feels a lot better. I do hope they bring the controllers back like the CV1 😢
