This is directed more at those who recently jumped into the VR world and got a Quest 2.

I've resisted picking one up as those I know who've tried VR in the past have eventually felt it was gimmicky and stopped playing it or sold their stuff.

More meatier games are out/coming out. Saints and sinner, alyx would be in my radar.

I'm considering the Quest 2 but wary the excitement may be short lived.

What's the experience after a week?
 
I really don’t understand why they didn’t go for a true hybrid approach on the Quest 2 given the success of link... would it really have been that hard from a technical standpoint to build in a jack for a custom HDMI/DisplayPort and USB cable as per “normal” wired headsets?

Tbh this is what I thought the link cable did. Though I appreciate USB-c wont carry as much data the impression I got was that quest link/pcvr visuals were not that far behind index etc but that was because of resolution. Are you saying that even with the link the visuals/performance is a serious step down?
 
Quest 2 is a fantastic headset, and I was almost hoping it'd make my Index redundant, but unfortunately it doesn't quite get there. It's pretty close though considering it costs a third of the price. If I didn't have an Index I would be perfectly happy to use the Quest 2 as both a portable and PC headset. After using the Quest 2 for a while it makes me wish my Index had higher resolution like the Quest 2 and G2.

That's useful thanks.
 
Well I've ordered one. Purely as I've got nothing else to play at the moment :p

Hope the novelty lasts. Plan to start with Alyx and maybe Population one.

Any recommendations for easy 4yr kid experiences or games? Think theres a jurassic park thing.
