Requesting to be made a mod (lemmy.world)
 

I’d like to request to be made a moderator of the !metaquest@lemmy.world community. The mod, @Semi@lemmy.world, hasn’t had any activity in the last 3 months. I tried contacting them, and haven’t received a response.

Looks like quest 3 may have some competition. Eye tracking+dp connection are nice.

I'll give the demo a shot. Hopefully it's more like too the top and less gorilla tag.

Early hands on, guess we'll have to see how much content there is. Dungeons of eternity and hell sweeper VR also have co-op modes, so they've got some competition.

Are Sponsored Reviews Okay? in c/virtualreality@lemmy.world
[–] miketunes_@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm not a fan, I guess it could be okay if the the reviewer is up front about it. If these start popping up on lemmy I'd be annoyed, maybe we can make a rule for the community that no sponsored videos should be posted? I tend to not like video reviews, I'd rather read a 1 page review in 3 minutes vs watching a 15 minute video.

The long awaited follow-up to 2016's Sairento is finally out. I've been looking forward to this, but may wait for the graphical upgrades they are working on. Quest/PSVR2/Steam are all supported.

Anyone try it yet? I'll probably wait until it's farther along. I've also found chewing gum helps immensely with motion sickness.

Ask HN: How to do literal web searches after Google destroyed the “ ” feature? in c/hackernews@derp.foo
[–] miketunes_@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Basically search engines all cost money, but you paying with your personal data with Google vs dollars with Kagi. I've only been testing it a few weeks but I think it's worthwhile. Here's what they say about it: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/why-kagi/why-pay-for-search.html

Grapple Tournament goes free to play (www.meta.com)
 

This is one of my favorite VR games - a great FPS blend of Unreal Tournament and spider-man style swinging. The player base just wasn't big enough for a paid title and pretty much dried up. However they have now launched free to play and servers are filling back up. Highly recommend, also available on steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1384320/Grapple_Tournament/

Combining with Meta Quest Vr Community? (lemmy.world)
 

The vr community on lemmy is still pretty small and we have quite a bit of overlap between this and lemmy.world/c/metaquest. I posted about consolidating VR content to here and wanted input from you guys.

More like music video than a live concert but absolutely amazing 8k stereo quality. It has two songs for free and you can buy more. Looking forward to upsahl's show when releases. Same studio that did Megan the stallion experience.

I ordered as they'll have a quest 3 adapter and it has the grip to putt feature. There are other options on Etsy too if you want something cheaper. Makes the have much more realistic.

I have a facebook group of VR gamers around Baltimore, but looking for some new people to join us. You don't have to be in Baltimore - just friendly and looking to make some new VR friends.

Most of us are around 40, have kids, and are pretty liberal. We usually pick one group game a week and make a private match. We're pretty average players. We usually mix up the game type each week, typically we play:

Walkabout Mini Golf - we play every new course that gets released

FPS Shooters - After the Fall, Breachers, Contractors

Social Party Games - Cook Out!, Loco Dojo, Among Us ect.

Videos - BigscreenVR - movie or concert, and shared 360 video experiences

App Lab/Horizons/Rec Room Worlds - We try out various apps worlds, often doing escape room types
