Get a job faggot

I'm just waiting 2-3 years before it becomes cheaper and they have a new model released with all the kinks worked out. Alternatively when the Vive becomes more affordable, I'd be willing to pay maybe $400 bucks for it and by then, it would have more games.
>>
>>333493840
$100 I can understand to waste if you were feeling pretty dumb, but $800? That's just stupid. You can use that money for almost anything else.

But blurnsball is visually entertaining. MOBA shit is just a bunch of dudes clicking and occasionally everyone is shocked at the concept of basic teamwork like moving somewhere at the same time.

Hearthstone doesn't require any skill either, but at least it's funny to watch someone get fucked by RNG.

I can spend $800 on drugs and have a way better time

Spending your money poorly because you are a single man with a job and no friends is really pathetic

Statistically speaking, have $800 to dispose of usually means you're in a relationship and have an active social life

What does watching dota 2 in virtual reality add?

Can you rephrase that in English? I have no idea what you are trying to say here

>>333494613
What does VR add to any possible genre that exists either today or in future?

Nothing. It's a party gimmick you pull out for 5 minutes until people get annoyed at having to set it up.

There are 2 things your money should be going on. Real estate, and keeping a buffer of a few thousand bucks for sudden issues popping up. If you're willing to throw away a few thousand bucks on some dumb gimmick headset and a PC to power it, you're a fucking moron, and you'll be working into your 80s.

I didn't buy into VR expecting it to be the next big thing. However, I do think there will be a nice scene for it after the hype.
>>
>>333496769
>spending money on entertainment is bad
It kind of is, at least when you have nothing to show for it at the end.

Building or buying a controller, I understand. It'll last forever, you can always resell it, and it won't really become meaningless.

But gadgets? They have a shelf life. In 5 years, they'll be totally obsolete, and you'll have to buy the latest version all over again. And when you're spending thousands of dollars per generation, you have a problem.

There's nothing to even justify upgrading your PC yet, aside from if you really want to switch to a 4k display or something.

Because you're a mentally stunted child who actually enjoys the god-awful "blame everyone but me" gameplay.

Honestly, my mom wasting her day playing fucking Candy Crush in front of the TV is less depressing than knowing that people enjoy MOBAs. At least MMOs have social interaction to go with the dumb retard gameplay, MOBAs don't even have that.

VR is just an expensive gimmick right now. That's especially apparent when you look at games made specifically for VR. There's more shovelware and general shit than on the Wii and the Kinect added together.

I hope it's just a growing pain and that eventually VR becomes a thing, but as things stand right now it is just another pointless gimmick
>>
>>333498353
>blame everyone but me mentality
Arguing with you would be senseless. This is true to a certain degree. but in /v/ there is not gray zone , just black and white.
>>
>>333498530
That's literally the appeal of the game, though.

Other online games require more individual skill to be enjoyable. MOBAs are for people who are lacking skill, but still want the thrill of winning and pretending they contributed. When you lose, you blame your teammates. When you win, you pretend it was entirely your input that won the game. Even if you're not at the top of the board, you can use excuses like "if I hadn't been getting raped over here, then my team couldn't have pushed for the win".

>>333490974
For a proper experience? FuryX/980ti and Core i5/7.
For an "eh" experience? 390/970 and Core i5/7.

>>333497978
God you're fucking retarded. You act like entertainment isn't a fucking requirement to being a normal human being. There are plenty more expensive and just as stupid hobbies. But even if it's fun in the short term, and YOU believe you got value from it, then there's absolutely nothing wrong with it

Sure, but we live in a post-internet world.

There's more entertainment available for free right now than you'd be able to experience in 20 lifetimes.

If you seriously find pleasure in wasting money, I feel bad for you.

Entertainment is isnt a top priority. Basic survival and a spuse aandkids shoilkld be much higher.

>>333499421
This is how we know you're actually a lying underage, if notbiologically but mentally, entertainment and video games are a goddamn commodity, they aren't something you need to even work as a human being but since you never really matured you genuinely believe you NEED games or you are not whole, you really should seek help before you permanently destroy your life

Is it just me, or is VALVe the company that tries the hardest to push the gaming industry/tech forward?

Steambox when?
>>
>>333490865
what's based about this? they're not making new games
>>
I felt like someone made a tech demo of archery and dual-gun shooting, and every other person used it as a base for their "games". Everything I've seen looks below Early-Access in unfinished tier of garbage, the only two games that look passable are Valve's The Lab and Budget Cuts.

I feel like the VR bubble already failed when most games are cockpit or teleport shit. Until a game designs AI around the player being able to teleport, it will never be fun
>>
>>333500834
So nobody should ever own a Vive ever? Not even when they have a lot of disposable income? You're fucking retarded.
>destroy life by owning a Vive
Fucking maximum retardation here. You just come off as a bitter child because others can afford more toys than you.
>>
so you can watch a bunch of autists do some completely boring shit for like 45 minutes, even though the matches are decided in the first 5? who the fuck makes a game like that anyway. make the match only take 10 minutes if there's no hope of turnaround after that point anyway or you're just wasting everybody's time. if i played dota i'd probably just go AFK at that point and ignore all the assfaggots screaming at me if the match is clearly a LOSE anyway
>>
>>333501405
Yeah, its really fucking smart to put money on a experimental piece of hardware that will become obsolete in as few as 2 years, even buying a fucking console is smarter than that, but please keep rationalizing your wasted money, just don't come bitch on /v/ when it doesn't deliver its promises
>>
>>333500903
dont have to if they can make every other game much better, its way better than adding one new good game
>>
>>333501668

What about this don't you understand? I have enough for a house, I already have a car, I already have a decent computer.

As someone that already owns two VR headsets, I'd like to remind everyone not to rush into a new platform with high expectations.

Yes, VR games still suck, all 3 of them. But yes, VR will still be huge. It will just take time.
