Regardless of where it falls, it did get mention in the SJW thread. The salt from Twitter users was rather glorious since you had some say they aren't supporting the Oculus Rift just because the Oculus Rift founder is supporting Trump.

It's no surprise to me that the inventor of this piece of shit would also support the piece of shit Donald Trump.

Considering that Oculus allegedly stole trade secrets from both Valve and id software, yes.

Was that ever actually proven?

VR is a joke, but still lol if it's true.

I haven't heard anything on either, so it is still alleged.

VR might have more potential than those technologies. Key word is might.

The only way VR would have any potential is if it didn't have a face mask you had to wear to make it work. It blocks you from the outside world and people will not go for that for hours at a time.

Magic Leap might, just might, be an AR/VR solution that works.
But it's all just proof of concept at the moment.

Keep in mind that some devices, like the Vive, have a camera on the headset. You aren't totally disconnected from the outside world.

So Phil Fish cancelled his game nobody gave a fuck about over this.

I don't understand the logic of not enjoying something because of views/actions of the creator that are unrelated to the product.
