  • Hey – do you have a case recommendation for the kiwi elite strap? Thanks!

  • Within 2 weeks, I have gone from thinking the Q2 isn't a very good headset to planning to buy one as soon as I get a new job. It's also nice to pair with my new PC. I'm trying to get as much info as humanly possible on this thing as well as how to take Zuccy Boi's grubby little mitts off of my data.

  • Hi, i just wanted to know that if you were to plug your quest 2 into your gaming pc, what is the reqiurements (specs) for most games?

  • Is is best to buy from Currys or Argos only I'm concerned about the Amazon 30 day policy where as with the other retailers you have a clear 12 month warranty and you can easily take back to them? Also, it's now Jan, should I wait see the details of Quest 3 around October ish before spending my hard earned cash? Many thanks.

  • Hi I would really like more info on the Non Facebook user accounts. From what I read it seems you can add additional accounts on the Quest but it also leads me to believe they also have to have a FB account? Wouldn't happen to have a video would you? My daughter bought my grandson a Quest 2, they really do not want him having a Facebook account yet and really would like other options. Thanks for the info

  • I watched 100 videos before I bought my Quest. Totally worth the purchase. The games are so broad and being able to plug it in to a PC and use Steam is fantastic.

    As long you know you'll put the effort in, you definitely should get one 👍

  • I love the English pronunciation of battery as “bat-chree”.

  • Wish I would have known before I ordered from Kiwi they were in Hong Kong…..

  • Something that isn't mentioned. Something I have researched heavily and found no solution. THERE ARE NO PARENTAL CONTROLS FOR THE BROWSER!. Oculus knows there isn't, there's a bottomless pit of parents asking for it. Facebook just doesn't seem to care. Now it is Christmas and free open access exploration of Hardcore VR porn (and whatever else) is out there with no safety lock, no controls. You can't even DELETE the browser (people have tried). It's truly disgusting how little oculus cares about people's children. (ya, they say to nix it at the router, but that's so easy to get around. A basic password system to deactivate "safe search" would make a world of differnce)

  • 12:45
    totally didn't expect to see the farm (and base) i made in a vrcauldron video you made lol

  • I appreciate how serious and straight to the point your videos are. I'm new to the Quest and almost all VR content creators I see are hipster dude bros that act like clowns and beat around the useful information. Subscribed.

  • The thing I love about the class is if you have like family members like your mom and your dad you can have them on a hand tracking game and there like 🤩

  • I'm just binge-watching these videos until Christmas comes so I can get mine, I can't wait! Just 5 more days to go!!

  • Thank you for this excellent video! Honest, clearly explained and just the right content covered in a reasonable length video.
    You covered many important issues ignored in all the other good videos I've watched. Liked and Subscribed.

    I purchased a Quest 2 a few weeks ago and was impressed yet disappointed at the same time. The 'WOW' factor was there but I guess I was expecting 4K resolution approaching the 65" LG OLED C1 4K TV I recently bought to replace my old 2K plasma that died. I'm glad you pointed that out and agree with what you said. (Of course I realize it's not fair in 2021 to compare $300 VR technology against a $2000 top tier TV.) Also you pointed out how to set up optimal fit plus options for eyeglass wearers like me.

    And I haven't seen anyone else explain the best way to add a second headset. I just got another for my wife and fortunately did set it up also with my administrative account from the first headset then created her secondary profile. App sharing works very well that way.

    Thanks again, I will search out your other videos!

  • This is so nice. You've summarized everything I would like to convey to prospective buyers, and took me days to find out.

  • Excellent video. I purchased my Quest 2 a few days ago. I find myself saying "wow" a lot every time I use it. At $299 it's a pretty amazing piece of technology.

  • Am I not a noobie yet? I mean I've got over 2700 games on echo vr

  • Nice video, thank you!! I would like to know if we can we have 2 quest 2 headset on the same Facebook account?

  • I have a war pc but its already 3.5 years old so this sounds intersting but can i play steam games or only stuff that is on the oculus store?

    And if i play non vr games. Is there a bonus to it or does that make no sense. If it makes sense how do i connect it that way?

  • Do you need lens bumpers if you use the spacer that comes with the headset for glasses wearers?

  • Does anyone get motion sickness with this I used to get it with the ps vr

  • So well timed as a good friend of mine is seriously thinking about buying a QUEST, this will suffice his hunger for info very nicely..

  • I wasn't exactly sure why I was buying my Quest lol. But I'm glad I made the impulse purchase. It's been a ton of fun and has turned working out into a game for me (Audio Trip…and especially Supernatural kicks my a&&!!)

  • I can thank this channel for helping me pimp the hell out of every part of my quest. I even have a 256 gb quest 2 on order now.😆and experimenting with a TV mounted kinect when it arrives for full-body tracking.

    And the upgraded kiwi elite is going to be great when that finally arrives.$50 Usa credit too with my quest 2 purchase!

  • In terms of graphics, it's really hard to get people excited by showing them a video of Quest footage – even HL:A on PC looks a bit dated by flat-screen gaming standards. I love giving people their first VR experience and see them finally "get it". 😁👍

  • Ahh yes, a list of things I know I already want, but will still watch anyways just in case there's something I missed.

  • Hey i am about to mod and modify the quest 2 to get the best of skyrim vr and i tough maybe you should do a video for that . Its kinda the best vr game we have if modded correctly and with quest 2 optimised for it . At vanilla its pretty ugly but i am about to modify texture and stuff to enhance the quality .

  • 45.99 $ CAD for the higest price , it tells a lot how my country is getting poorer .

  • You should have release that video after christmas, now it's going to get lost in time and uploads by bigger VR channels
