"Your brain can’t accept that you’re moving in the game while in real life you’re staying still. It made it impossible to play for more than 30 minutes without feeling like I was about to die." he says. But otherwise, he liked it.

I.E. Standard VR struggles, would happen in every other locomotive type VR games

Am I missing something? How is it a freshwater eel if they're in the sea?

oh damn they migrate to the sea before reproduction

Confusing when you think of freshwater fish that can't survive in saltwater. So then i'm guessing the baby eels just spread back out to freshwater sources

Hell yea hope the purchase ends up being legit 🤞
Bought mine not far from that price this winter off an independent seller.

Great handheld for enjoying all of what 2d emulation has to offer, so many titles so little time

Keeps reminding me of this South Park scene:

"Hey, hey, hey,
'member the Cold War?"
"Ooh, I love the Cold War, that was fantastic!"

olicvb , 25 days ago to Technology in ZOTAC ZONE: ASUS ROG Ally and Steam Deck challenger to launch September 2024 for €799

As i wrote on another Zotac Zone post, I’ve been looking at all the other handhelds from Asus, MSI, Lenovo, and was really disapointed in the lack of touchpads.

Shouldn’t it be a no brainer for a desktop-os-sporting handheld, especially a windows one? At least the lenovo has that interesting mouse sensor on the bottom of one of their joycon-like controller, but that’s not gonna help much when you’re holding the device.

olicvb , 1 month ago to PC Master Race in Okay fam, I'm done with lag. What GPUs will give me buttery smooth VR performance?

just checked, i've got the 120hz toggled on in the oculus headset settings. Doesn't mean it's running at that, guess it would then depend on wether the steam link supports it and forth

olicvb , 1 month ago to United Kingdom in The “Require videogame publishers to keep games they have sold in a working state” petition just got a response.

awe shit i see a future where games start having expiring dates built in : (

I guess it's nice to know it should stay up t'ill then, but if this gets popular devs would have to protect themselves by setting a deadline instead of letting it free. Right?

Like instead of giving people tools to self host servers or some kind of long term support, they'd think it easier to just say the game dies then and publishers would just use that as default

olicvb , 2 months ago to PC Master Race in Okay fam, I'm done with lag. What GPUs will give me buttery smooth VR performance?

I'd have to check but i believe it's at 90hz

I'm running steam link on my quest 2 to my 5800x + 3080-12gb Windows pc and I rarely get drops (HL:Alyx, Google Earth VR, VRChat). When it happens it's because something is loading or the trackers lose tracking

olicvb , 3 months ago to Today I Learned in TIL that black panthers aren’t a distinct species - they are jaguars or leopards with “melanism”, the opposite of albinism

Can a panther be born from two black panthers and not be black? I don't know about their habits, do they have prides and would that pride end up with mixed black panthers, Leopards, Jaguars in it? or do these get kicked out?
