I can say this...

The world allowed furries to get their hands on these devices as a general household item first. I can guarantee you some of them are getting pretty... uhm... creative when it comes to developing haptic IO devices for these platforms.
oooh the furries yes, now they can shag each other virtually, and even shag the family dog while at it.
I wonder what the animal rights groups have to say about that little gem.

Ja, now My Little Pony- Friendship is Magic, you can shag them too, considering that many furries love horsie cockie and fanny

You sound too familiarly unhinged. Artyloop?

When last shopping for a VR headset I just found that it seemed double the price in South Africa, and we don't seem to have many vendors selling it. It's like we just haven't caught up to the rest of the world as far as VR is concerned. And people locally seem to have F all idea about it. So I never ended up getting one.

Probably logistics mostly to blame. Can't exactly return defective headsets to manufacturer and our market isn't big enough to run any viable business out of it.

Ordering directly from Amazon seems the cheapest way for us (At least for a Quest 2), but for the wait time and the risk :/
Wait time? I ordered some stuff from Amazon a few months ago. 8 days later it was here.
 
One of your furry shag-mates I presume?
Let's do some research... Oh I see, the forum search reveals you and he sorta knew each other. I presume then that the friendship was a little more than just online. He probably dressed up like a gaming character and you like a dog and you two went for it like rabbits... how your anus held up to that is anyone's guess

Eish... and your profile was created 11 days after Artyloop was last seen.

Listen bro, I know the inside of those offices care for me to describe them to you? My spouse worked there I told her to quit because they wouldn’t even allow her to take one rotten day off to be with us on Christmas Day.
Amazon and Google, two of the companies I will never work for, ever.
My experience is specific to SA, it was my wife who worked there, and she didn't last long.
1- They expect you, like any other Yank company, to work to the exact amount they're paying you
2- The shift work sucks balls and disrupts family life
3- Leave policies suck (expected her to work on Christmas day- was told either do it or there's the door)
4- Long, long hours
5- Arsehole bosses
6- No progression path, no real hope of going further, its a dead-end street.

I am too lazy to look now but there was an article on this forum where two chaps told everyone what it was like working there. They were telling the truth.

I've been interviewed etc by Amazon but I have declined both times, because of how the company treats its employees.

That's a really detailed fan fiction you've got going there Sonic.
 
I'm assuming it's a relatively straightforward process to stream the output of a video camera to a headset? Everything connected to the same pc / in the same room. Like if I wanted to watch myself from a 3rd-person perspective.

You should be able to see any camera feed just like a desktop app with most default headset's menu mode or just SteamVR's menu. There are additional desktop applications such as OVR toolkit which allows independent app menus and such and the placement of multiple desktop monitors in virtual space.

Not sure why you want to view yourself in 3rd person but most modern headsets also have built in cameras which steam uses passthrough mode.

Some more VR flying.

It's not VTOL, DCS or Flight Simulator but what I like about this world is the social experience fuelled with comedy and fun things. You can take a player up for a spin (Great for making VR newbies throw up. :ROFL: ) Or shoot each other down in ground to air combat or air to air dog fights.


And yes I added that music because of Top Gun. :love:
 
With some heavy modding, Skyrim VR is still brilliant... I have the music turned off, mild survival mod, rune casting, redone lighting, redone LOD, redone flora,.......

So walking through the forest at night with the grass up to your stomach... when one of those stupid spiders jump out at you. Barely missing the real life wall; I'm waving my hands in the air like an idiot trying to draw the runes to cast healing with my left hand and a firebolt with my right... and obviously drawing the rune for a fireball instead, killing us both... aaah, fun.

Bad motion sickness on this one though.
