Welcome to /vrg/ - Virtual Reality General

>What is virtual reality? What is a head-mounted display?
Just read this Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_reality
A head-mounted display (HMD) is the headwear responsible for creating a VR environment
>What VR HMDs are available right now?
This general will focus on the enthusiast-level of VR, and doesn’t cover the widely-available methods of VR (ie. Google Cardboard). For enthusiast-level HMDs, the popular ones are: Oculus Rift and HTC Vive
>Where can I get one? What games are there? Can I ride a dinosaur? If I die in VR do I die in real life?
I’ll just specify what this general is meant for:
Asking/Answering questions people have about VR.
Talking about VR experiences.
Meeting other people with VR in VR.
Now for the nitty-gritty
>Where is the porn?
Check out /t/’s catalog and search for “vr porn”. While you might not like the website, /r/oculusnsfw is a good start for that stuff. This is a blubord, don’t post pictures or think that discussing these types of things is a good idea. Keep it to a minimum.
>Where are the games?
Mostly Steam. Link below
>What else?
I’m thinking about making a steam group thread. Would you be interested in a /vrg/ steam group or do you avoid chan groups?
Hopefully that’s enough information to get the thread going. Here’s some links.
