I can't wait for #VRheadsets to become so light it's like wearing glasses. #simracing is literally next level in #VR. Especially with the new #buttkicker But I can only wear the #oculusquest2 for so long before I'm fatigued. (I know some can wear them all day and you're lucky!)
Been running #VIR all weekend with the #porsche #gt4 in #iRacing on triples. Hopped into VR and after a few laps I was already negative delta by nearly a second. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I waited for a good headset for streaming from pc, battery in my pocket. Do I have to buy apple? (I will not)

edit: the battery is only 1/6 of the weight maybe not worth doing this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qV6R1_5HE-4

@BuddyTheBeefalo I don't even think the new apple VR is going to be capable of any kind of PC gaming. Unless I missed something last I heard there wasn't going to be any interfacing with desktops. Eventually. Probably still a few years out for what I'm really looking for. Even further for something affordable probably

Probably not, I just cant believe they are the only company that has an external battery. I'd never buy apple.

@BuddyTheBeefalo except most people who use non-pc native headsets almost always also have an external battery added on except strapped to their head so they have like 3lbs on their head

A headset where the battery and the computing unit could be stored in my pocket, on my head only screen and lenses would be great.
