The Quest 3 is awesome and you should get one

[@stephenholmgren405]

VR is like the Matrix; You can't tell someone what it is, they have to see it for themselves. The problem is, you can't force a headset on someone. Everyone I have showed the Quest 3 to has been blown away, and said they had no idea how good it looked (Red Matter 2, Bonelab, etc) compared to the cartoony junk Meta advertises. Personally, its very comfortable for me, I wear it for hours and forget I'm wearing it

[@TheIzzyNobreShow]

That's exactly it. It's a tough sell considering these videos amount to basically... PS2-like graphics at best. Being IN THERE, taking it all in, it's a completely different experience -- and unlike what most gamers have ever experienced!

[@rhylpancakesph]

ikr... I want to buy quest3 by searching by it. no one influence me to buy it. kinda feels weird too 😅

[@ComplexAutist]

​@TheIzzyNobreShow having owned a psvr2, and returned a second and about to buy a third, the quest 3 comes no where close to 4k hdr 120hz, absolute joke of a comment. Where's the lighting and shading on quest? Where's the textures? The anti aliasing? Where's the graphical capability you see that you say it's like a psvr2??? 😂😂😂

[@blastofo]

If anyone has the money and tech savvy to do PCVR, its incredible. Playing the Subnautica games in VR makes flatscreen gaming seem like Atari. MSFS2020 and flying all around the world in VR is incredible. But there are some great looking native games like Red Matter 2. And you have the quest games optimizer which can boost the graphics on native games.

You might benefit from waiting a few months for the Quest 3S. It is expected to be revealed at Meta Connect this year. It will be a lite version of the Quest 3 with no mixed reality/color passthrough but will have the same processing power as the Quest 3 and be capable of running the same graphics just probably a little lower resolution displays.

I love my quest 2/3, but i think most people really need that fidelity offered by the few pcvr and psvr2 exclusives to pay attention. I mean there are a bunch of other factors holding it back but if every game was gt7 or res evil 8/4 i think a lot more people would invest. Exited to see what they can pull off with the quest 3 exclusives for sure tho. Im trying to push vr to anyone and everyone that will put up with my ramblings. 😎

[@geneanthony3421]

I have that headstrap and it's awesome. Plus you can take out the face mask while wearing it, getting you closer to the lenses while it also gives your eyes a bit of breathing room. It's great when you want to watch a movie or something.

[@newezreal3241]

The downside of the Quest 3 is that the only interfaces it uses to connect to a PC are either Wifi or USB. Both introduce significant latency due to encoding + decoding times for the video stream. Not to mention that you get artifacts because of the compression. If you want to minimize artifacts the latency increases. Dedicated PCVR headsets interface directly with the GPU which eliminates latency since the stream doesn't need to be encoded and decoded. You always get an instant and clear image. Also the tracking doesn't work as well as a proper PCVR setup with base stations. The Quest 3 uses infrared sensors combined with hand tracking and AI to fill in the gaps. It works pretty well but if your hands are behing your headset the tracking will not work properly. But it is very cheap in comparison. For Beatsaber I just play on the Quest 3 Standalone since it runs at 120hz with good visuals and doesn't add any latency. It is an awesome headset for most people. That being said, for proper PCVR you need a PCVR headset.

I see big potential for MR, but in current state there is hard to optimise the code for it I guess, since most rooms look different to each other. So it will be a safe level of graphics that does not wow anyone.

[@NuzlockerEric2024]

I just want full dive vr but I seem to have been born in the wrong century.

[@oppa1319]

I believe VR/MR will start taking off more than ever with the quest 4 and beyond due to the collapse of the AAA gaming industry. Gamers are hungry for a new experience but ironically reject VR the thing that will give them what they are looking for. Due to increased power and foveated rendering quest 4 will have good enough visuals (360/PS3) to attract potential buyers through 2D videos. Because people don’t understand how immersive VR truly is the poor visuals right now is the only thing they can judge a game on right now. I hope we have more developers and teams turn to VR by quest 4 generation to have consistency everyone can look forward to.

Q2 supply in the USA was cut short just shy of completing full 4 years in the market. It probably still has full 2 years of support ahead but won't be getting many major new games, plus performance will begin to suffer (even more) Only after I got Q3 recently I was shocked to learn how much more cloudy are Q2 lenses and also how shockingly lower resolution are games running on it. Q3 chip is much faster and about to truly show what it really can do with games targeted for it. AC Nexus and Asgard's Wrath 2 were the pinnacle of Q2 and yet run so much better already...

[@euteo]

Yeah, no headsets with similar to Quest 3 performance or features on the horizon in the next 12 months. The Quest 3S will be basically a Quest 2 with the Quest 3 processor and color cameras. The most important feature of the Quest 3 are it's pancake lenses which make the experience way more comfortable and clear compared to the Quest's 2 fresnel lenses. Q3S will still have fresnel lenses. Just so you understand how important pancake lenses are - the use with glasses is much more easy, clarity is perfect across the whole lens - no weird artifacts. If you don't wear glasses, you can get them closer to your eyes, improving the viewing angles.

[@AndrewTSq]

I have bought one, but some things are worse than Quest 2 in my opinion. The battery covers on the controllers on quest 3, that was one of the worst designs ever. The Quest 2 is simple and fast to change batterys. Otherwise, the screen is a little bit more clear in use, the fov is a bit bigger. The changeable IDP.. I am not sure if its my eyes or something, but I do not see any real difference going from lowest to highest setting :D but if it works for some, I guess that is a good thing. The device seems to eat a lot more battery than my quest 2 also. Have not really played a game that take advantage of the extra cpu yet, but can not wait to.

For someone who uses his Quest 2 exclusively for PCVR and some... Videos through Skybox, is the upgrade to Q3 worth it?

[@Theguywith2thumbs]

For lenses and comfortability I guess 🤷‍♂️ lenses are actually so much better and it has a wider FOV and gets rid of screen door affect! The headset it’s self is a lot lighter than the quest2 so it should fit more comfortably on your face as well

[@SjaakSchulteis]

@@Theguywith2thumbs Nope, the Quest3 is not lighter, but is in fact heavier than the Quest2. But it is more comfortable, the lenses are superior and PCVR is (if you have a 3080 and higher GPU) superb. The loudspeakers are very good, better than the Quest2 or 1. And since it came out towards now it got such good updates that it always feels like a new headset.

[@Theguywith2thumbs]

@@SjaakSchulteis didn’t mean it’s actually lighter but it definitely feels that way because it doesn’t protrude as far out off of your face as much since it is a lot slimmer. I’ve been using the q3 for a while now and yeah the updates have been great.

I do have more time to get back into it now, but i feel like it'll only be worth upgrading once there are price drops. Hopefully the learning curve, efficiency, scale and other cost savings start accumulating. No point paying full price for a product that's already a 3rd of the way through it's life cycle.
