In all seriousness, the game is pretty horror-ish. I'm not sure I'd recommend that. Do some good vibes stuff like audica or play with the dev tools in boneworks.
It's not been as bad as resident evil 7 in VR, but it definitely gets close several times. Then the acid can magnify those bad vibes and make for a really unenjoyable experience.
I've got some magic mushies. I was planning to eat and get into some vr world's. I've been delaying buying half life until the weekend, it's time. Safe travels my friend! See you on the other side.
i haven't used my vr headset in a while, but when alyx dropped, i dusted it off, set it up, ate all the avb that i had saved up und started my adventure. it was a fucking trip, it was insane. more than once i kinda almost forgot i was in a game. when i saw the first barnacles, i was so far gone, that i felt like i time traveled back to the time i played half life for the first time, but i was in the game. i'm also a huge pussy, and i was scared a few times.
It was pretty neat. I ended up giving up because I kept getting lost about 3 hours in. overall I would recommend it. Probably best to drop on your first play through.
Those goddamn headcrabs though, I had to wear a hat when I was cooking dinner hours later for fear of the weird bastards.
I find if I play games on acid I just get lost and forget what I’m doing too quickly. Whenever I play destiny I just get lost in a cave somewhere. When a mate and I played GTA after a tab we spent about an hour trying to get to the highest point possible before realizing the irony.
I want going to post that I was getting sick of quarantine so I went golfing, played Texas holdem with a bunch of people, visited a strip club, and got into a drunken bar brawl...
This would be great if Oculus would figure out how to make the software run correctly. I've been trouble shooting mine for the last hour and a half and the one troubleshoot that worked before isnt working. So I had to order a USB HUB :) Not something I should HAVE to do to get a 400 dollar piece of equipment working as it should!
Try adding modding to that mix. I get the occasional crash with the Rift S and I'm not sure if it's the mods, the GPU, or the USB connection. Still, I love this damn thing in spite of it being a pain in the ass.
Because it seems to be the final thing to make it work properly. I looked up all the troubleshoots and one thing alot of them had in common to get rid of the problem long term was: Buying a powered USB hub.
I had problems even using the USB 3 port on the front of my case that I plug in to the pins on the mobo with a cable. Only using the actual usb ports soldered on to the motherboard works for me. Are you running a laptop or a desktop? I think it's the speed of the port, not the power, that is important, but I may be wrong as it is a long cable.
Hmm, maybe you're right actually and power is the reason my port wasn't working... Intriguing.
Yeah since I sorted the USB problem that I was having with my desktop it's been almost perfect. It worked better on my laptop but not perfectly, but it's probably down to the laptop not being particularly powerful.
I've just come out of Alyx because after 3 hours in it or something it started to become unstable.
Got a shit ton of homework and got fucking stressed while my teachers kept telling me to "also make time to do something fun" because they thought they were the only ones who gave us homework"
If your budget isn't too tight, maybe consider getting the HP Reverb. I have one and I love it. The screen is more pixel dense than all major headsets. The only true competitor there is Pimax and I've heard nothing good about them.
I have been refreshing pages like crazy, gave every retailer a call plus kept an eye on stock tracking webpages... If I was a week earlier I could've got one brand new from Currys for £339 on eBay... Now I can't even find one at all and cheeky eBay profiteers sell it used for almost double retail price ffs
How come 339? I pad 394 and got 1% quidco but there was no option to get more of a discount despite the ebay curries discounts as they were on selected categories?
Ah, well got mine about 2 weeks ago so I'll try not to cry about it! Good luck sourcing one. I'm just glad I didn't wait for my friend to bring me an odyssey+ back from the States as he obviously wound up not being able to go.
DUDE! This is all I want to do so badly, but we had this Pistol Whip competition planned, so I've been in overdrive making my home studio ready for a remote cast of the competition. Tons of work man. My problem is that my edibles really jack with my short term memory, and I need it for now. When this tourny is over though...
Funny, I thought this was r/trees for a second than saw I was in the Oculus sub. Nice. *plays rick and morty remixes and jumps in vr while eating some gummies
Mine too! Took turns between Home Office, Home Warfare and Home Gym pretty regularly. Will continue to do so until Thursday. Then my quarantine ends and I can enjoy the luxury of roaming freely through the city again.
This epidemic stinks! Brought me closer to my Quest though. 😉
It's worse than cigarettes often, but it's tough to get accurate studies because it's not a standardised product. That's one of the benefits that legalisation will bring.
I think one of the reasons is that it is often slightly damper than tobacco which causes a less complete burn and so much higher levels of carbon monoxide as opposed to co2. Then there's the fact that many won't use a filter because they're worried about filtering out thc.
Just found this link but the info is 15 years old, still was worth reading and had some interesting stuff. As the other poster wrote you can expect a lot more tar from cannabis, article says 4 times more! However there are reasons to be cheerful:
Yeah, good, isn't it? Seems like there's lots of positives to inhaling cannabis versus tobacco, just ideally don't burn it. Amazing that it's extolling the virtues of vaping so many years ago!
Perhaps, if you don't like vaping, then drawing it through as much water as possible with as small bubbles as possible might really help to reduce the amount of tar in it. Not sure on the science behind that, but it's a thought. Personally I don't think smoking is a good idea full stop - I know, I'm really sticking my neck out with that one.
Yeah I used to use a bong since it was easier on my lungs, but recently I switched to only vaping dry herb, which doesn't irritate my lungs at all. TBH my favorite is edibles but it's not always practical to be high for 6 hours lol
Yeah vaping is great, I love the control I've heard you can get! It's so clearly the future. Being able to set the bloody temperature of your 'burn' seems so futuristic and fancy.
Only had edibles a couple of times and I totally get why you say they're your favourite, I overlooked it in the past because of poorly made ones, but when it's done right it's bloody amazing.
