In this video I look at how the future of PC VR looks now Facebook/Oculus are probably no longer going to fund big, single-player, narrative focused games exclusively for the PC platform. Just three years ago, Facebook was aggresively funding studios to make PC VR content. But with the rise of the Quest, and Facebook's focus on 'standalone', what does that mean for the future of PC VR?

![PC or PSVR2? - Which is the best platform to play No Mans Sky in VR?
I decided to revisit No Mans Sky on my PC with the Quest 3 and see how it runs these days via Virtual Desktop. Ive previously mentioned how the PSVR2 is (on balance) the best way to play NMS currently, but perhaps I was too hasty in that assessment?
Note: This wasnt originally intended to pit the PC version of NMS against the PSVR2 version, but as my ramblings progressed it sort of turned into that.
[0:00] Introduction
[1:26] Going back into NMS on my PC via Virtual Desktop
[2:32] The PSVR2 version is great, all things considered
[3:41] The PC version has improved with performance
[4:23] Consistency is king
[5:12] Reprojection implementation differences between platforms
[6:30] Quest 3/VD improvements of compression artifacts
[7:19] Consistency IS king
[8:10] Closing thoughts

![Is this the Reverb G2 replacement? // DPVR E4 Review
Ive been sent a DPVR E4 - a budget ($549) PC VR headset - in order to give a few impressions. It has comparisons to both the Quest 2 and Reverb G2 for PC VR, but things arent quite as simple as that...
Please keep in mind that the answer to most questions posed in YouTube video titles is No.
