good call, i am extremely disappointed with VR this gen. My brother in law is taking my Rift this weekend to mess around with it, he cancelled his Vive order too. I'm not even sure I'll take it back, when I had a few hours to kill last night I played Hitman on just regular gSync than boot up a VR game, not a single VR game has given me that "man... I really wanna keep playing this!" feeling that games like Hitman, Uncharted, GTA, etc give.
porn on VR is also abysmally bad. Like seeing Melisande's true form in GoT would be a serious upgrade in the boner bank.

Yeah, there's no AAA games yet. I'm excited to get my Vive, but I'm also very tempered in my expectation of the current software.

Your problem with VR porn was you seem to have been viewing regular porn translated into VR space.

Go there and learn the ways of true VR porn. They seem to likeWhirligigfor 2D videos (Haven't tried it so no input from me). Also, for fucks sake, go to a real VR porn (1or2) site instead of that 2D crap. Yes, they're all paid sites for now that I know of.

hmm tried whirligig and still same problem, everything is a massive dick or vagina except if I do home theater mode where its a tiny screen inside a virtual cinema room. i just don't see the "make a screen thats the entire screen in front of my face" option, its either gigantic 180/360 drive in theater sized experience or shitty postage stamp sized theater for ants
i've never paid for porn in my life and I am certainly not starting for virtual reality!! even the idea of going to a strip club repulses me, not for any moral reason I just don't wanna give some random stripper my money. i'll check out that sub reddit though, but my rift is with my brother in law this week
There are a couple of massive Virtual reality porn packs on IPT, like 100 gigs, but they are 6 months old so dunno how good they would be with CV1
also CV1 will be available in stores at best buy for both demo and purchase starting this week, not sure the exact time details but seems kinda fucked up if you can buy in store before people who ordered online get theirs. Current online orders have an estimated ship date of August.

Watching a movie was neat, watched a chunk of Deadpool. Couldn't play world of Warcraft on a 100"+ screen though, text too small and an occasional flicker depending on how much was going on on the screen.
Audioshield my favorite thing so far. Will do some room scale stuff tomorrow after my cables come. Office is next to living room, have a large play area there and a big screen to mirror to for everyone else. Should be a good time this weekend.
Really need a VR version of Tabletop Simulator. Edit: it's planned:VR Support. :: Tabletop Simulator General Discussions

I'm a cheap bastard so it pained me to do it but I paid the $49.99 for The Climb last night. I only did the first training and the easy level of the first mountain but that shit is pretty intense. I was sweating and it wasn't from physical exertion, it was from your body thinking it hanging off a cliff. You know you aren't but some part of your subconscious is telling you that you are a fucking moron and have no business hanging 200' off the ground by your fingertips.
This is the kind of thing that is just going to get better as we get higher res displays.

I can't speak for every profession but if I told my boss I had a VR setup being delivered he'd be rushing me out the door handing me my jacket

Yeah, I would say you don't speak for pretty much every profession that isn't a bunch of geeks(ie: computer-related). Unfortunately, I don't work in a geeky field!
