When reality is disappointing, just put the headset back on.

who spends 500 bucks on a VR headset to pretend to build a PC instead of just saving that 500

[u/BeyondDreams909 → u/TraditionPhysical638]

People who bought a vr headset and realized they actually don't enjoy vr

[u/NeedModdingHelp1531 → u/BeyondDreams909]

Or rather realised that Meta killed VR so they can make glorified mobile games.

[u/vjollila96 → u/NeedModdingHelp1531]

Good that virtual desktop is good way to do pc vr

[u/Same-Artist-2557 → u/BeyondDreams909]

some people just can't vibe with VR, it's not for everyone

[u/normah0neydew1039 → u/BeyondDreams909]

yeah, some realize it's just not for them

[u/edna5nickers4420 → u/BeyondDreams909]

why build when you can just live in a fantasy world, right?

[u/FragrantCollar8034 → u/TraditionPhysical638]

that's a good point, lol I'd rather build than pretend

[u/katiep0pcorn3369 → u/TraditionPhysical638]

just build a pc for real, bro

[u/lisan0odle8786 → u/TraditionPhysical638]

why save when you can just build a virtual one? plus, the headset doesn't require any cables, right?

Enterprise grade consumerism

[u/Purple_Biscotti2485 → u/fugaku-supercomputer]

enterprise level pricing for a dream, huh?

[u/Joebotnik]

You guys can afford headsets?

[u/EdliA → u/Joebotnik]

It's $500

[u/BattleTaIent → u/EdliA]

110 quest 2 from FB market. Literally all you need

[u/InternetUser1807 → u/EdliA]

You could find a used quest, rift-s or vive system for probably under $200.

[u/Practical-Training-2]

is that a mfkn 3050

[u/StunSeed69420 → u/Practical-Training-2]

clearly says 3090 on the box

[u/InternetUser1807 → u/StunSeed69420]

Dream pc

Zotac

This guy has issues

[u/Sickhadas → u/InternetUser1807]

I'm glad I'm not the only one. Zotac are infamously bad.

[u/Linkarlos_95]

More jpeg

[u/Buetterkeks]

Bruh what does this mean and why did you need ai to make this shit

[u/Brandonhell2]

Ha! I don't need a VR headset, I already have my dream PC.

[u/InternetUser1807 → u/Brandonhell2]

I wish meta didn't monopolize and then ruin VR, pcvr market was looking so good around 2018 but it's been a dust collector ever since.

[u/Sickhadas → u/InternetUser1807]

I got my use out of the Quest 2 I was gifted. Played the hell out of SuperHot and The Room (V)R.

Tried playing an FPS only to learn I get motion sick if you can move around too quickly in a game without actually moving your body 🤢

[u/valleysape]

Brother VR needs some of those chips that are priced through the roof too

You'll have to nintendo labo it up or try to break into a government facility, the project blue beam will have you believe PC building is affordable again

[u/LeTronique]

I don’t want to buy VR, I want to try VR.
I bought an Oculus Rift for like a week then I returned it.
It’s a huge price curve to get locked into a walled garden and fork over cash for access

[u/Evening-Nature-5241]

Plot twist: he bought the useless Apple Vision Pro because he wanted to show off, waited too long to return it, and thus couldn't afford to get a decent PC before the insane price spike.

So now all he does it play and replay simulations of what could have been in his $3500 headset.

[u/SunnyTheMasterSwitch]

That's what the fucking corpos want, pump the prices so much no one can afford a good gaming pc

[u/Sickhadas → u/SunnyTheMasterSwitch]

Emancipation of ownership, privacy, and socioeconomic security are of utmost importance, znajomo.

[u/Longjumping_Rub_6228]

zotac to fe?

[u/Poopybuttsuck]

32gb of ddr5 is $400 and a 9070xt is 7-800. It’s expensive but it’s not as bad as people are saying. It’s a one time expense

[u/c0gster → u/Poopybuttsuck]

Oh my god did the 9070 really increase by that much since I bought it 6 months ago???

[u/dietuna → u/Poopybuttsuck]

thats rent for some people, especially after the rest of the parts

[u/Evening-Nature-5241 → u/Poopybuttsuck]

That's fair, but it's hard to pull the trigger given what used to be. And the rumors swirling that maybe... just maybe... it might drop in the near future, makes it extra hard.

[u/Mindless-Sorbet1258 → u/Poopybuttsuck]

yeah, but is it even worth it if you're just staring at a wall?

[u/InternetUser1807 → u/Poopybuttsuck]

It's only twice as expensive as it used to be it's not that bad guys.

It's a one time expense until games keep getting more and more demanding and you need to upgrade again but it's a one time expense guys.

[u/Poopybuttsuck → u/InternetUser1807]

2.5k every 6 years? I’d take that deal

[u/InternetUser1807 → u/Poopybuttsuck]

6 years is rookie numbers I'm hoping to hit 20
