The important thing here is that they are now locking Oculus software from the Oculus store to their hardware. Software that previously allowed Oculus software to run on other headsets like the vive (ReVive) no longer works. They previously said that they would never do this. Wonder what changed.

I'm still hoping for a greater VR open standard, but OSVR isn't really going anywhere at the moment. Maybe in another couple years.

Carmack's doing fine. The GearVR is his baby, and getting Minecraft on it was probably one of his proudest moments.

Now that Daydream's launching, though, I wonder what they're thinking. Unless the IMUs end up being incredibly subpar in comparison to the Gear, I think they're fucked.

As a Gear user myself, I'm kind of fucked. The already low amount of software support we're getting is only going to get worse.

I'm not surprised, most of the developers that have their stuff on the Oculus Store accepted financial and technical assistance from Facebook in exchange for keeping their stuff Oclulus exclusive, so I can't really blame them for wanting to keep that exclusivity.
>>
>They previously said that they would never do this
Their license agreement clearly says this since day 1 and long before the Facebook takeover. Oculus was always intended as a closed platform despite what the kickstarter's talk of openness suggested.

Fanboys didn't want to hear it back then. Now they finally wake up

I mean, just wait until apple rolls out their mobile VR solution. normies will eat that shit up.

So glad I got a Vive. This just speeds up people cracking their DRM altogether for every game on Home. Dumbshits.

Oh no, so now I, an Oculus Rift owner, experience no change, but HTC Vive users can no longer use Oculus software? I sure am upset about this, forsooth, woe is me.
>>
>>54659614
No need to thank me. The porn has been worth the price alone and I already made $2,000 reselling these things. More than paid for itself.
>>
>>54659659
Now everyone is going to think you are even more of a cuck than you already were.
>>
>>54659659
It means you paid for games on a dead platform. Oculus Home will be a failure because of stupid practices like this.
>>
>>54659659
Next step is blocking games that weren't purchased from the Oculus store. Don't think that Cuckerberg won't do this.

Also, Valve comes out of this looking like the "good guys" as long as they don't do something equally retarded.

> Software that previously allowed Oculus software to run on other headsets like the vive (ReVive) no longer works.

But if it worked before, then it still does since it's the other headsets running the software to begin with?

You'd just have to crack them to continue to do it.
>>
>>54662753
It's the Oculus Home software that now detects if a Oculus headset is connected to it and through some form of protection. This wasn't the case before.

Also the ReVive dev doesn't want to circumvent any game DRM that could lead to piracy. Otherwise you legitimize Oculus' attempts to block it.
>>
>>54662814
Eh, somebody will make a workaround eventually.
>>
>>54662843
obviously
but this decision just shows the path they are taking with the oculus, which was previously obvious to everyone who wasn't a FB shill, but now even the shills can't deny it

>Bad business practices breed success

Except here it's just bad no matter how you look at it. Oculus doesn't know their market. They're going for a walled garden approach because they think this headset will appeal to normies, why they included a worthless remote and xbox controller, when it's a niche product. Daydream will kill Oculus Home before they can figure out that mobile is the only place this will work and SteamVR will live on as the monopoly on PC.

You live in a 50% black shithole which worships nigger culture and homosexual degeneracy and also blackwashes it's own """history""". It's hilarious how you are blind to this because you wish it wasn't true. 50% is over a 100million niggers btw.
