I can’t believe how valve hated vr but now they own one of the most popular vr headsets out there

[@josalt]

Hate is a strong word they just couldnt see past the problems

[@Samevi]

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.

[@CaptainNomae]

@@Samevi I really hope the deckard does the same thing for the standalone market that the Index did for the PCVR market in terms of making high fidelity more accessible. It seems that Meta is in a downwards spiral at the moment too which could easily make my Quest 2 unusable if they stop supporting it.

[@tomclanys]

@@Samevi Valve did a whole lot of their own R&D back with HTC and after, but by letting Oculus go on their own they let the market grow while focusing on building a good headset to sell, even though I feel Valve wouldn't have big problems with promoting VR...

this really makes me have a new found appreciation for how far the tech has come, i remember in middle school my friends and I attempting to pool together a years worth of savings between all 3 of us only for none of our parents wanting to trust kickstarter, in hindsight im kinda glad as the DK1 probably wouldn't have been what we were after, but its insane to see how far its came in like a decade, id argue not even phones have gone through as big improvements (i mean with VR we went from no DOF to 6DOF full body tracking WITH hand tracking, with phones we went from what? touch screen with stylus to touch screen with finger?) its sad that the original oculus founder got thrown out, seems to be mark's kink really, but im also glad we got to have the quest and quest 2

[@firestorm1859]

As someone who had a Rift CV1 when they first came out, you should really play Robo Recall, the graphics were and still are way ahead of it's time, it's basically on par with Alyx's quality but released way back when the only headsets you could play it on had resolutions that couldn't even see all the game's detail. It's a gem, really.

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

[@josalt]

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.

[@josalt]

Yeah it is special haha. Compared to DK1 its a miracle !

[@merrickx]

The DK1 and DK2 days were amazing. Almost entirely in the hands of optimistic enthusiasts, all of the content and experiences being made were extremely creative and experimental. There were so many tech demos that are better than almost everything out there in recent years. There were no controllers back then, but there were all sorts of third-party companies making awesome hand tracking in motion cap type stuff. A lot of it was so much better than what we have now, of course what we have now is very accessible and user friendly. There was nothing more exciting in gaming than Palmer Luckey and Oculus. Midnight releases of new consoles were cool and all, but this was like stepping into a new thing altogether, and it was enthusiasts and small time developers showing what was possible that attracted eventually the venture capital etc. Nothings are a bit more sterile, but it's still great to be able to play practically any game in VR, even if all the experiments are largely gone.

sorry but when you said meta saw the most potential in the quest just wrong, they only saw money in it, the major difirence between the pc and the standalone market is control, and accessebility, you can clearly sell more device if it's not depend from other hardware, also in the quest platform, the control is in meta's hands, with just a quest headset, you can only get games from the quest store or whaterever the name of it, but in a pc vr headset, you most likely get games on steam, and that means no extra money for meta, also they are less likely to get as many data from, which is major reason for the quest platform being relatively cheap for a home user,they can sell your data, and you are only able the purchase games from them, it's a clear win in my eyes. And yes, you can connect to a pc, and play steam games, or even pireted games, but most of the quest users probably doesn't even have a vr capable pc.

Hey! by any chance can you make a video/tell me about how to set up an oculus dk1 with steam? i would be very grateful as i've been searching for entire days pissing blood. -an oculus dk1 user

[@josalt]

Hey! Uninstall ALLL Oculus software from your computer then download this: developer.oculus.com/downloads/package/oculus-runtime-for-windows/

[@littelauto2847]

@@josalt Thank you so much for answering! :D but i already did this and it doesn't work. steam sees my dk1 but it says it's sleeping and it needs to be woken up, i guess my computer is the problem.

I think he returns them after

[@TheWeeklyFrog-]

From an oversized pair of goggles you have to connect hundreds of wires with to work, to an oversized pair of wireless goggles that take no more than 15 minutes to set up

4:36 somebody tell me how the worlds first vr headset has a better fov than the quest 3

[@paullynch1246]

That was fantastic! I'm still using the CV1 so when I am able to upgrade it's going to be quite a jump in visuals. It's very exciting to see how quickly things are evolving

[@josalt]

Thanks mate! Yeah CV1 is honestly still pretty good the designs of the headsets have gotten a lot better but honestly CV1 is goo enough for most things...

[@DiamondDepthYT]

When you upgrade, don't get rid of your CV1! You can use it for full body tracking!

[@Hamachingo]

Also waiting for the Quest 3? Seems to be the one to get.

I love how in the thumb nail there was a controller that oculus didn’t own 😂

Which one?

[@golem_videomaking]

in 2013 i saw an italian youtuber testing dk2 with hydra controller and half life 2 with full motion controller support, it blows my mind at the time. it blows my mind nowadays too so...

[@jazzdirt]

DK1 was my first good VR experience, then CV1, then Rift S (also the first headset that was mine, DK1 and CV1 I used at the local sim racing center, quite often). Now I have a PICO 4, considering the Q3.. I like the PICO but the Oculus (now Meta 🥲) interface is just better...

[@A-playss]

This KZbinr is so underrated

[@depresion5884]

I started off with a cv1 and Rift S almost 4 years ago now and have I'd say 3000hrs+ in vr, it certainly has evolved a lot since then!

[@josalt]

Yeah its insane the evolution! Damn i wish oculus still made PC VR headsets haha

[@inky5168]

Ah, a CV1 fan. Good man. This HMD is far too overlooked. It's very light, comfortable, effective, excellent controllers, 90hz, OLED, on-the-fly IPD adjustment, good straps, dual screens, good sound, good mic and with 3 tracking sensors like you and I have you'll never miss a beat of accuracy. Absolute brilliant for what is now 8 years old. I loved it the day I got mine. I got it on release day via pre order and still love it for its ease of use, in terms of horsepower needs - a simple laptop will have it running most titles. In the UK, a perfect condition (literally like-new) CV1 are available for as little as £40, approximately $50 - other mice/keyboard/headset nothing is that much of a bargain and useful in the world of PC hardware at this moment in time. I'm not kidding. If you can think of a better kit for less or the same then I'd like to hear it. BTW I purchased a Quest 1 for £40 the other day for Kicks even though I've already got one. And I own 2 Quest 2's (initially I owned three but sold one to buy another Quest 3). I've two children who are now age 17 & 24 so this is partly why I keep/buy certain hardware. Plus I'm total tech nerd and lover of VR. When the CV1 arrived it was my dreams coming true. Just for blasting around tracks in Project Cars or Automobilista 2 is worth the price of VR admission alone nevermind the rest of the wonderful doors it opens like Half-Life: Alyx, art, exploration, fitness, psychology, social interaction, design... Like you I own nearly all Oculus HMD's with Rift (CV1) and Quest 3 being the biggest and best leaps within the genre from the company. I too wish modders would incorporate the CV1 tracking cameras to Quest 3 for uber tracking. Of course buying Quest Pro controllers might work as well but it's more money plus controllers are almost as much as a complete used Quest Pro. I feel almost cheated that Meta changed the name to Quest. I thought the name Rift was perfect and cool, even if it was to eventual be called Meta Rift. However, the "Oculus Rift" was properly cool. Remember, as apple will tell you (being the masters of name changing - not game changing), marketing and mindshare is half the battle. However, no matter what people think of Zuck, I'm thrilled he's putting his gotten gains into VR. VR needs the love and the deep pockets to take off. VR/AR is inevitable. We already do most things virtually be it via FB, TV, a phone call, letter or smoke signal - it's all virtual and the goal is all about immersion which will lead to eventual limitless possibilities. And a positive byproduct is efficency, just as a phone call to someone is far quicker and cheaper than driving to see them. As for Palmers political views, in the world of business, when you're not the boss but are a big public figure and almost the face of the VR space, he should have known better. I understand that Zuck, head of one the largest public companies on earth saw this as an expensive issue that wasn't going away anytime soon, so... Oculus wasn't Palmer Luckey. He was the face of VR for a breif time who, on the face it/according to some media, used his position for political gains. Zuckerberg, Gabe Newell, John Carmack and their respective teams, among others in the space - and the public, the fans openly pushing VR like yourself, are the future of VR. Luckey is too deep in politics to be the face of VR. Forget Luckey. He was more the Jobs than Woz of VR at the time. Quest 2 has sold over 20m units and counting. It's still selling well due to the price drop.

I really like the way your videos are formed, And your way of narrating.

[@PoofyisDead]

Phenomenal video! I still use my CV1 from years back when i was in high school, recently been contemplating getting a new quest 2/3 but could never find a review where someone would compare to a CV1, so this weird niche review was extremely helpful for me. Thank you!

[@gabx5624]

You should make more videoessays like this like: The history of VR or (Video essay title about anything you like)

[@cheapcrackers4772]

Awesome video. Can we get a "I bought EVERY Steam VR headset" too? It would probably only cost like $50,000 to get everything on the platform.

[@josalt]

id love to do that! Maybe one day!
