Oculus Quest Finally Came; Worth the Patience =w=
6 years ago
General
So today, my Oculus Quest came in the mail. I ordered it just after Christmas when I finally said "okay, I gotta have this" after reading reviews, and just seeing how it was flying off the shelves left and right.
At the time I ordered it, it was scheduled to ship by February 21st (literally 2 days before, it was January 21st). Now as I have looked occasionally on the Oculus website, I see it is unavailable in many regions (including North America). This is mainly over issues with the Corona Virus outbreak (I'm guessing a main manufacturing plant is in China).
That aside, the wait was worth it; even though my living room is quite confined, I had enough room to work with the roomscale option, and I absolutely love it. Can't wait to dive even further into this VR world =w=
If you're curious about it, once it becomes available, the 64GB is $399, for if you don't find yourself playing it VERY often or just want a taste of it. For those (like me) that say "Give me the full package", $499 is the price of the 128GB unit. I have to say, for an extra $100 to get double the hardware memory, it's worth the investment.
Now I look forward to Half-Life Alyx coming out next month; I do hope it's Valve's test run with VR and the showcasing of possible graphics and gameplay mechanics for a possible Half-Life 3.
Until then, we have to continue to live with the fact that Valve STILL can't count to 3 =w=;;;
