Got myself a spiffy new laptop and an oculus quest 2 for xmas. If you want some truely good DOOM VR then play Doom 2016 with vorpx...it's simply mind-blowing how good it is and it's fast as hell. Also Doom 3 works with vorpx too and it's freaking creeeeeepy heh.

VorpX isn't really VR though. There's an actual fanmade Doom3 VR port that's actually VERY good: https://github.com/KozGit/DOOM-3-BFG-VR

My Samsung Odyssey sits in the closet gathering dust, I should find a reason to use it again :/

After years of dreaming of VR, finally saw a reasonable enough price and bought the Oculus Quest 2, nearly non-existent in my country.

Paid 875 dollars, a *very* good price here, believe it or not, and money isn't a problem at all.

Also got Vorxp, that turns a veritable ton of old games into fine playable VR ones.
Some have full turn head VR or big screen mode.
The Witcher 3 is said to be particularly stunning in cinema mode, 150" curved display with Z-buffering and full stereoscopic depth and 3D effects to the limit.
Not all old games work, but monthly more are added, and the program regularly perfected.

Bought also HelixVision, celebrated big screen implementation.

Link cable to PC works fine, headset recognized.
The headset works beautifully through the VR setup.
BUT, I must certify the headset and pair for games the 1st time.
AND, to do that my only cellphone needs to be Android 6 at least.
It isn't *looks up to the sky in wonder*

So, tomorrow Im gonna buy any cheap one for that, LOL

VR will rule the cosmos for a long time. Until we actually have the Matrix.

STAND BACK! Be silent! Be still!... That's it... and look upon this moment. Savor it! Rejoice with great gladness! Great gladness! Remember it always, for you are joined by it. You are One, under the stars. Remember it well, then... this night, this great victory. So that in the years ahead, you can say, 'I was there that night, with Arthur, the King!' For it is the doom of men that they forget.
