So since we’re all in lock downs these days I thought I’d treat myself to an early xmas gift for the winter period and bought an Oculus Quest 2 VR headset. I always read reviews on tech before I purchase and I think it’s safe to say that for 299, the Quest 2 is the best VR headset we can buy today.
I mainly bought it to play games like Half Life Alyx, Beat Saber, Star Wars, etc, over on Steam VR. The beauty of the Quest 2 is you can use it as a stand alone unit with no wires or PC connection, and play games onthe oculus store or you can connect it to your PC, either with a USB-C cable or wirelessly, and play PC VR games from Steam. It really doesn’t get much better than this for 299 from what I’ve seen.
And it got me thinking, do you guys think Overwatch 2 could somehow work with VR? I can just imagine DPS players probably being drenched in sweat after an intense game, like it was a work out. But just the thought of actually playing in VR, being right there in the game, 360 view, I have a feeling it could be pretty amazing. Albeit I know the pace of the game would probably feel a little slower in VR at first, but I feel like the actual immersion and feeling of being in a VR Overwatch world would make up for it. I personally would love to try it one day, what do youthink?
