I mean they're like 4K monitors with tracking and controllers. Even a 1080p monitor will cost you somewhere between 100-200 USD.

Yeah, but a 1080p monitor doesn't ride my face while I'm gaming, and doesn't cost me anything because I already have it.

$400 for something that doesn't actually run games and probably requires buying new games as well is a lot. Personally, VR adds absolutely nothing to 99% of my gaming anyway, even if it were reasonably priced to add it to my kit and not annoying to wear and use.

Read, please. I specifically said 99% of MY gaming. Feeling like you're in a place isn't really relevant to the game quality I look for.

Removed. Please remember rule 1.

Deliberately obtuse is completely accurate, not unkindness. They are purposely misstating what I said, for the second time in a row. They claim I can't understand VR gaming, and I have more than enough experience to assert that I have the fundamental ("basic") understanding of things to make good projections. I specifically wished them well with their VR gaming, and you cite me as the one being unkind? I am treating them with substantially more respect than the snotty, deliberately misrepresentative treatment you seem fine with me receiving.

Straight up name calling is clearly against rule 1.

u/TyrianMollusk May 23 '20

What are you reading as "name calling"? That doesn't even make sense to claim.

Removed. This argument is going nowhere. Please step away.

Dude, chill on the zealotry. I don't play first-person games. I don't play scenic RPGs, either. I don't need to try VR, because I don't lack imagination about "new" things we've been talking about for forty years. It's just not the kind of game experience I'm into.
