Im interested in the occolus for the VR porn

Based

Planning on getting the Quest 3 in a year or two, solely for porn
Bought a 2TB hard drive which I'm slowly filling up with material, both JAV and American porn
Hope it lives up to what I've heard

 

[dungeondragon]

Does jav have VR porn?

Yeah, basically every major studio and a couple minor/niche studios have their VR subcategory
Reviewers remark on the lower resolution compared to Western stuff (JAVR is mainly 4k, as opposed to Western 6/7/8k)
Of course, the Quest 2 and Pico headsets have 4k lens resolution (2k each eye), but higher res videos look much better on them

 

[dungeondragon]

have you tried the quest 2?

sadly not, no
all information I know is sourced from porn forums, YouTube, Reddit, Oculus forums, etcetera
Was going to pick one up from Ebay as they're cheap now (~£200), but would probably regret not spending more for the Quest 3

My phone is 4k and I tried one of those vr phone holders but I could see each pixel and it was really blurry. I wonder how the oculus compares, if it has that problem or not.

Phone vr is the worst vr experience from what I understand. Easiest to access, but poor quality.

Depending on which headset you get, you won't have that experience. The original Quest 1 had something called the screen-door effect, which is where you can see the individual pixels akin to looking through an opaque curtain. The Quest 2 doesn't have that issue. You have to actively go out of your way to search for pixels to be irked by it.

Standalone headsets, ones that don't require a pc to run, are all I'm interested in. There are a couple companies, one being Pico, but Meta is where it's at for the general market.

It's pretty cool, I've used it for some games and it's a very interesting experience; although the novelty is where lots of the fun comes from, and it probably would get boring quickly if I owned a VR device and used it regularly.

So you have to hook the oculus to a computer? Im only interested in watching 4k porn, not playing games although id like to play a few games.

Not for the Quest 1, 2 or 3. The Rift models are wireless, but need cables if you want to play pc games. The $1500 Quest Pro can be used standalone or tethered.
Battery life for those who play games is a little over 2 hours. For videos solely, not sure.
The Quest 3 is the same weight roughly as the 2, but 40% slimmer (better weight balance to ease fatigue).

 

[dungeondragon]

holy shit those things are $1500?

Quest Pro is top of the line.
For us normal consumers, the Quest 2 and 3 is more relevant. The Quest 2 used is around 200-250. The Quest 3 is releasing in October at around 500 for the 128GB model - the models with more storage will cost more, no doubt.

Going to wait a year or two for the Quest 3 to fall in price on the used market. Gives plenty of time to read reviews and see if it's worthy of purchasing.

Vrchat is a good place to start if you like socializing. It’s on the oculus quest and PC. I’ve had mine for almost a year till my parents sold it and it was actually really good. You can talk to people without being judged (for the most part)
