    Basically what Truscape said. Their hardware, specifically the Quest headsets, is easy for newcomers to get into. They’re relatively cheap compared to other headsets and can be used standalone without a PC, with the caveat of not being as powerful and unable to play many titles or having to play downgraded versions unless connected to a VR capable PC. The Quest also has standalone tracking, meaning it can be used anywhere without the requirement of mounted external sensors. You could pack up the headset and controllers and take it to your friend’s place to have them try it out, with no setup required.

    When connected to a VR capable PC, either by USB-C or wireless AirLink, it functions like any other headset with the PC running the game and streaming it to the headset. This allows you to play PCVR games using the Quest.

    tl;dr The hardware is largely more affordable and accessible, but nobody wants to use their software.

    Nah, the issue is they made a far inferior product to the already existing and well-established VRChat, which not only has a large pre-existing playerbase, but also allows exponentially more user freedom and expression than the slop they put out.

    Datura is fucking wild, glad you still got your psyche intact.

    I did a lot of counter flipping in the day and it’s a miracle I’m not a vegetable or impaired at the least. Apparently I was one of the few who “enjoyed” (really stretching that term) DPH and the DXM made it more bearable.

    Glad to have that part of my life well behind me. Absolute devil substance.

    LSDex was easily the most intense trip I ever had, but definitely started to dip into delusional territory. 10/10 won’t do it again.

    At the height of my stupidity, I once took a combo of LSD, DXM, and DPH - one I called “the trifecta” due to containing every class of hallucinogen (psych, dissociative, and deliriant). Unsurprisingly I remember very little from the night, and what I do recall is unpleasant however I was so out of it that no discomfort actually registered. 0/10 surprised I lived to regret it.

    Don’t do drugs, but if you are going to do drugs then don’t be a fucking idiot like I was
