Weren't they supposed to be the good guys? How the fuck did they become the problem?

What happened this time?

Nothing, I'm just late to the party finding out about this "exclusives" bullshit.

I bought a Vive instead because Oculus turned out to be a bunch of faggots.
>>
>>342172618
I think Palmer explained that Oculus gives funding in return for a timed exclusive. The devs don't have to take the money, and are free to develop for both platforms.
>>
>>342172618
Should of expected it though, right?

Well, if VR does get big we can all look forward to another console war over which VR headset is the best.
>>
>>342174335
It doesn't seem like they would be permanent exclusives though.
>>
>Facebook

More specifically though, very shitty anti-consumer practices like offering developers shitloads of cash to make games exclusive to their DISPLAY PERIPHERAL. I believe the Serious Sam developers came forward and said that.
>>
>>342174019
Woah, woah, woah.
Let's not be reasonable here.
>>
>>342174938
Yeah, it's a shame that's what usually happens in these threads. But I'm not saying Oculus doesn't do its share of stupid shit.

>Vive
>Built in Steam compatibility
>No exclusives bullshit
>VR wand Controllers packaged, unlike the Xbone controller that comes bundled with Rift that most $1500 PC owners probably already have anyway
>No Rift "wandlike" controllers available at all
>Vive makes use of the entire room, Rift is just a headset

Literally the only thing Rift has going for it is price, and that's only because they sacrifice so much functionality in the process. It's also clear Facebook is making Oculus compete like it's the top dog in the market when it's not. Their business strategy will fail inevitably.

Enjoy buying a new house with an extra bedroom so you can play shitty "full scale" VR "experiences" anon.
>>
>>342174458
Not yet, but only because VR is still young and new. I wouldn't be surprised if eventually each headset got exclusives though, how else would you convince people to buy yours? Hell, Oculus is making their own room scale VR add on to compete with the Vive.

VR is just another gimmick cancer unless you can dive in real virtual reality connected directly to you brain.
>>
>>342175424
Wait, so you are implying that if you buy a Vive, you then need to buy a new house to use it in?

Kid, you went full retard.
Look I know it sucks to be a kid with no money for things you want, I remember those days many yrs ago. But don't let your butthurt make you be a shithead too.

>>342175710
The VR sensor has always been capable of roomscale though.
>>342176367
I pity you, that you haven't had the chance to experience VR porn.
>>
>>342176367
So you speak from experience I take it huh? I mean, direct connect to the brain has been around for a while now right? I mean how else could you speak like you know what the fuck you are talking about...oh wait a sec

You don't actually know what the fuck you are talking about.

Well that clears that up now doesn't it?

>Launch dev kits
>Multiple companies get a couple and create their own vr devices based on the advancements people like John "Tesla" Carmack implemented on VR which is what turned VR headsets from screens attacked to your head to an actual device.
>While OR team was occupied with facebook and lawsuits from JEWnimax capable companies like HTC were already implementing advancements and improvements on their own headsets, others like Sony were trying to make them more affordable.
>By the time OR "launched" Vive was already the leading headset

Basically American innovation was brought to a screeching halt by kikes, while Asian corporations not run by greedy jews built upon them. They were never gonna be able to compete, there was no way an underdog run by kikes was ever gonna to succeed. When OR is finally ready Facebook will shit on the OR team, and rub them off, this will happen.

Do yourself a favor an just support anyone else.

I feel bad for the OR team, they got cucked out of the market.

>Vive was already the leading headset
Because it released its motion controls sooner? From what I heard from E3 the Touch is way better than Vive's controllers.

Companies do more for the common good than individuals, while community run organizations are inherently corrupt.

Literally kill yourself Marx.

It's a company run by a jew, what the hell were you expecting?

Companies do what's good for the shareholders which is increase profits, and what is good for the shareholders isn't always good for the public.

Literally kill yourself Friedman.
