Oculus was supposed to be a virtirual 3d that had no gimicks, bullshit, and what is supposed to
be whats the top of what we can achieve. Most importantly, its supposed to be transparent, and no

No, but it means that a small indie company founded on a risky idea has been bought up by a
massive conglomerate which would never take risks with anything, which will undoubtedly lead to
the oculus experience suffering.

Been waiting on Ray-guns for 50 years with all the "Sci-fi shows"? Automobiles weren't a fad,
they were an obvious change made possible by new and popular technology (the combustible engine).
The Oculus doesn't utilize anything new and doesn't appeal to anyone other than a niche audience
that wants to fap to 2-D.
You were never getting real VR from the Oculus and it's not the next step in gaming, it's a

Pretty sure that one of the main points of video games besides entertainment is immersion. What
some of you idiots don't get is that the reason the occulus rift probably won't be around in 10
years is that its a fucking stepping stone. Everything in the gaming industry (and all aspects of
life) are generally stepping stones for the next improvement. The occulus rift could Segway into
more advanced developments that lead to even better immersion. At some point we may even be able
to replicate reality through a computer and people will have difficulty telling the difference.
Pretty much every innovation is beneficial to society, whether its good or bad. they show us what
works or doesn't and open paths that we didn't see before.

I dont even know what to say to this. How can someone be this uneducated? What country are you
from, why is their educational system failing you? Why did you never learn history?
For a start you dont even know the history of the internal combustion engine. You dont know that
the first cars were widely laughed at, weren't popular at all, were basically toys for rich
people and had massive amounts of people dismissing them as fads and refusing to invest.
Historically very few people looked at tech changes and says 'ah yes, this is an obvious
evolution!" They acted like you, saying "This is a stupid idea! Its a fad! I Dont like change!"
Right up until the moment everyone had one.
As for laser guns, they exist. Though power continues to be an issue. More efficient batteries
mean yes, laser weapons.
As an idea that sci-fi has given us though, try doors that open for you. People made those
because they thought they looked cool on star trek.
WHAT A FAD!

Yes. I am sad that's it's future creativity will be stunted by facebook ownership. Yes, I am sad
that the very vibrant Oculus developer community will wither. But, damn. If you ever had the
chance to put one on you could see the future. Even if the future was nothing more than a
fireplace in an empty villa in Tuscany. I walked up the stairs, I went out on the balcony. It was
fucking awesome at 720 dpi. And that was nothing compared to standing in airlock 2 of the
international space station. Yeah, it rocked.
But despite that, I will be selling both my Oculus headsets on ebay tomorrow. What could have
been is finished. Someone else will pick up the slack. Once you play a game in VR, there is no
going back... But no one is stupid enough to buy a facebook phone, so they killed it. But they
might be stupid enough to buy a facebook rift.

That was before Iceland, and that was before EVE VR (now known as EVE Valkrie)
I played that game for 6 minutes, and it was the most amazing gameplay experience of my life.
for people who dont realize this, it isnt just about being able to look around, its about being

in that game, missiles were targeted completely by visual control, not by a controller.

Of course facebook may do gimmicks like "Make ur own content! Hyuck hyuck" but really that's just
