Saw an ad for the new Quest game in Germany, and it got me thinking… What’s everyone’s take on these Meta advertisements in Europe? Seems like they’re pushing VR games hard, but I was surprised to see this kind of promotion over there. Did anyone else notice?
“Now you TOO can become a rich orphan…”
It really makes you FEEL like you have PTSD.
Has a little something for everyone, lol, 7/10.
Yeah, I saw that horror movie. Malignant?
Thinking of switching to a Quest soon. Got a WMR headset that’s otherwise great, but I’m starting to feel the exclusives on Quest are hard to ignore. Anyone made the switch? Worth it?
I went from a Reverb G2 to a Quest 3 and I really enjoyed it. I use Virtual Desktop and it’s been rock solid for me.
What do you mainly use it for?
Mostly gaming, both standing VR games and sit-down sim games. The flexibility is great.
How’s the visual quality compared to the G2? I’m thinking of upgrading but not sure it’s worth it if it’s not a big jump.
It’s close. With settings maxed, the G2 is a bit sharper in the middle, but the Quest 3 has a bigger sweet spot. You don’t have to adjust it as much to get a clear view, and the wireless option is a game-changer.
Yeah, it sucks that it’s exclusive, but with the Q3, Batman is included. You don’t need to pay extra for the game if you get the headset, which is a decent deal.
Just gave you even more temptation to upgrade, haha.
I switched from a WMR headset to a Quest, and I never looked back. The wireless freedom alone is worth it, especially with the Quest 3’s solid visuals. Sucks no other companies are really trying to compete with Meta right now though.
The new Vive looks great but at $1k, it’s not really competition for the Quest.
Yeah, and it’s weaker than the Quest 3 for 3x the price. Not worth it IMO.
I saw one of these ads at the tram station in Karlsplatz!
Why is the ad in English?
Probably because the tagline doesn’t work as well in German. Plus, game titles often stay untranslated.
They did the same for the Quest 3 launch in Germany.
