00:00:00.461 --> 00:00:11.032
Welcome to another episode of Rough Talk VR, a weekly podcast with in-depth game reviews, exclusive developer interviews and the latest metaquest and virtual reality news.
00:00:11.032 --> 00:00:20.932
We join our hosts, the Father-Son team of D Scruffles and Stratus, today as they spend another episode breaking down and discussing the world of virtual reality.
00:00:21.339 --> 00:00:26.382
Hey, welcome to this episode of Rough Talk VR, kicking it off this week with another edition of VR News.
00:00:26.382 --> 00:00:30.051
We're also having a great interview dropping on Wednesday.
00:00:30.051 --> 00:00:33.066
That was so much fun to record, yeah wiki cool dude.
00:00:33.246 --> 00:00:36.462
Yeah, high energy, to say the least, that's a good way to put it.
00:00:36.462 --> 00:00:47.348
We're talking with Joe Halper from Nope Challenge on Wednesday, but today we're talking news all the latest and greatest in the world of vr and the big thing to kick it off this week.
00:00:47.348 --> 00:00:52.143
It's not really any news that you'll find news in vr ever yeah, it's not any news.
00:00:52.143 --> 00:00:55.191
You'll find on upload vr or road to vr.
00:00:55.210 --> 00:00:57.945
I don't think they're blowing up our emails or anything like that.
00:00:57.945 --> 00:01:12.393
But for us personally, thanks to the support of our patreon supporters, anybody that's donated on YouTube, a little bit of ad revenue Spoon coming in with a huge love bomb as well A nuclear bomb.
00:01:12.393 --> 00:01:14.286
You know everybody that's helped support us.
00:01:14.286 --> 00:01:19.405
We have been able now to order two PCVR ready computers.
00:01:20.061 --> 00:01:21.626
They're nice machines too man.
00:01:21.665 --> 00:01:22.528
Well, we don't have them yet.
00:01:22.528 --> 00:01:24.484
We don't have them yet Scheduled to come in this week.
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:26.070
On paper they're nice machines, man Well, we don't have them yet.
00:01:26.070 --> 00:01:26.936
We don't have them yet Scheduled to come in this week On paper.
00:01:26.936 --> 00:01:32.617
They're nice machines, to say the least, coming in well, technically, yours tomorrow and then mine the next day.
00:01:33.239 --> 00:01:35.849
Theoretically should be able to run just about anything.
00:01:35.849 --> 00:01:42.923
I think the only thing that might give us a challenge still is Microsoft Flight Sim at full setting, because I've heard that melt anything in the world.
00:01:42.923 --> 00:01:48.727
But you know, because I've heard that melt anything in the world, but we should be able to have some fun for the coming years, to say the least.
00:01:48.948 --> 00:01:51.891
Every review I've read on a video card is pretty damn good.
00:01:52.391 --> 00:01:55.814
And look, our podcast is going to remain pretty much the same.
00:01:55.814 --> 00:01:57.397
We're quest-focused.
00:01:59.061 --> 00:02:00.123
Yeah, here's how I see it, though.
00:02:00.123 --> 00:02:11.247
So let's just say Ghost of Tabor, right, I probably will play it PC VR more than not right or better fucking Grimm.
00:02:11.247 --> 00:02:11.628
Mm-hmm.
00:02:11.628 --> 00:02:21.073
I have full intentions of I want the absolute best, but I'm still going to, you know play standalone Walkabout Minigolf.
00:02:21.600 --> 00:02:23.347
Is it worth it to set up PC VR just for?
00:02:23.347 --> 00:02:24.509
No, there's no reason to.
00:02:24.900 --> 00:02:26.828
It's just there's certain games that I want in it.
00:02:26.828 --> 00:02:40.032
I personally feel like, depending on how frame rates go versus standalone, it's like you might have a little bit of an advantage on PC VR versus standalone.
00:02:40.171 --> 00:02:40.753
I can't argue.
00:02:40.753 --> 00:02:45.592
To me it's more than the new content being able to be made.
00:02:45.592 --> 00:02:51.288
Like I said, podcasts probably can remain the same 99.9% the same.
00:02:51.288 --> 00:02:53.106
It's now with the community things.
00:02:53.106 --> 00:03:02.750
You know, there are times where in the Discord, people would be meeting up for games and we couldn't partake because it's BCVR only, or just to understand what's going on in that world.
00:03:02.750 --> 00:03:05.048
Those titles, you know, support that side of things.
00:03:05.048 --> 00:03:08.280
I think it's important for us even if we don't cover it for content.
00:03:08.580 --> 00:03:19.373
I also want the ability to win some things cross by that we can say legitimately like hey, to be totally honest, there wasn't that much of a difference between the two.
00:03:19.373 --> 00:03:25.492
Or, and we'll say, like an after the fall type situation, because we already know after the fall looks.
00:03:25.539 --> 00:03:26.585
That's what people keep saying.
00:03:26.585 --> 00:03:28.344
That's the number one to compare.
00:03:28.665 --> 00:03:39.129
That's the word on the street, just to be able to say, when we do discuss something, if we've been able to play it on both, like how the visual compares, because we still want to focus all our attention on standalone.
00:03:39.129 --> 00:03:42.210
So it's a great opportunity and it's something.
00:03:42.210 --> 00:03:47.230
My computer's name is Spoonmelia yeah, that's no joke.
00:03:47.620 --> 00:03:57.772
I was joking because when I gave a shout out to everyone in the Discord who's supported donated part of the Patreon, all that I didn't put Crispy and Shoes right next to each other.
00:03:57.772 --> 00:04:01.028
So Shoes was like oh, it's weird to not see Crispy, shoes Crispy.
00:04:01.068 --> 00:04:01.330
Shoes.
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:10.687
And I was like well, I kind of feel like that's what I gotta name, name the rig, that's what you'll name it.
00:04:10.807 --> 00:04:11.872
I don't know 100, but it would be funny.
00:04:11.891 --> 00:04:12.875
Spoon, spoon melia spoonelia, spoonelia.
00:04:12.895 --> 00:04:13.497
That was it, yeah spoonelia.
00:04:13.497 --> 00:04:21.661
I laughed when you sent that, yeah, I want to get a little happy looking spoon a little sticker to put on it right, something like that it's?
00:04:21.701 --> 00:04:34.180
I think it's dessert no but our two biggest supporters and getting pc vr so you know, no excuses now for not being able to check out a title or explore a certain thing.
00:04:34.180 --> 00:04:44.966
It's going to be great for our personal exploration and knowledge of the world of vr, but also now for community stuff, like I said, meeting up with people and production as well yeah side of it too.
00:04:45.339 --> 00:04:46.766
I mean it's designed for.
00:04:47.620 --> 00:04:51.120
Last week recording on this laptop right, Theoretically, which dude.
00:04:52.543 --> 00:04:57.822
I mean that would have probably been the quickest way to a PC would have just to really show pictures of what we're working with.
00:04:57.843 --> 00:04:58.584
It's falling apart right now.
00:04:58.584 --> 00:04:59.064
I can't shut it.
00:04:59.105 --> 00:04:59.805
It's in tough shape.
00:04:59.985 --> 00:05:00.565
I can't shut it.
00:05:00.565 --> 00:05:01.286
Well, you can.
00:05:01.286 --> 00:05:04.271
It won't open again Correct Ever If I shut it.
00:05:04.271 --> 00:05:09.682
The next time it shuts is the last time yeah it'll never work.
00:05:09.682 --> 00:05:14.112
The next time it shuts is the last time it ever shuts.
00:05:14.112 --> 00:05:14.793
You're going to open it.
00:05:14.793 --> 00:05:16.427
You're going to crack, crack, crack, crack crack.
00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:20.942
Pieces of the frame are going to come popping out everywhere, spitting out plastic everywhere.
00:05:20.942 --> 00:05:23.187
But I'll give the little buddy his chicken.
00:05:23.206 --> 00:05:23.928
He's got a little buddy.
00:05:23.928 --> 00:05:27.310
Functionally, he's doing his thing.
00:05:27.310 --> 00:05:29.915
What we've asked of it is incredible.
00:05:29.915 --> 00:05:31.023
It's so extensive, for what?
00:05:31.103 --> 00:05:31.786
it can offer.
00:05:31.939 --> 00:05:40.903
So what we can plug into now in the studio is going to be like I don't think that'll make any quality difference or anything, but it will speed up editing and stuff like that too.
00:05:40.903 --> 00:05:43.771
Yeah, so it's an overall I'm excited.
00:05:43.771 --> 00:05:44.375
Stuff like that too.
00:05:44.375 --> 00:05:45.100
Yeah, so it's an overall I'm excited.
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:46.519
Thank you to everybody that supported us.
00:05:46.519 --> 00:05:46.711
I'm freaking excited.
00:05:46.711 --> 00:05:47.331
Are you kidding me?
00:05:47.391 --> 00:05:48.452
Yeah, we got some PC VR baby.
00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:50.324
I'm off on Wednesday too.
00:05:50.324 --> 00:05:51.206
Knock on wood.
00:05:51.829 --> 00:05:55.367
Wow, so Mine's theoretically going to come Tuesday, yours Wednesday.
00:05:55.367 --> 00:05:58.507
Yeah, I don't believe it until it's in my hands.
00:05:58.507 --> 00:06:10.452
I'm going to to dive into it until the weekend, next weekend.
00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:13.509
Yeah, man, there's going to be a lot to figure out.
00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:16.509
Maybe I'll play Undisputed Boxing, the flat screen boxing game.
00:06:16.509 --> 00:06:18.660
Figuring out flat screen is going to be no brainer.
00:06:18.660 --> 00:06:21.242
I'm going to plug that shit in download Steam and there we go.
00:06:21.262 --> 00:06:24.826
Yeah, I was like there's nothing in my Steam library.
00:06:24.826 --> 00:06:28.569
That would even cause this thing to take me serious.
00:06:28.569 --> 00:06:36.156
I mean, I have Microsoft Flight, but flat screen it's not going to max out to any stretch.
00:06:36.156 --> 00:06:43.098
But yeah, no, there's a learning curve coming our way.
00:06:43.098 --> 00:06:51.952
I'm sure I'm just excited I just want to get my hands on it and you know I still got locale issues of how exactly this is going to be set up.
00:06:51.952 --> 00:06:57.646
Right now, a router's in a different room Upstairs I'm downstairs playing.
00:06:57.687 --> 00:06:58.209
Experimenting.
00:06:58.209 --> 00:07:02.346
Like I said, I'm not expecting anything until the weekend, but it's going to be a fun week.
00:07:02.346 --> 00:07:04.886
I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas.
00:07:04.886 --> 00:07:06.269
It's like is it Tuesday yet?
00:07:06.269 --> 00:07:06.850
Is it.
00:07:06.870 --> 00:07:10.862
Tuesday, yet it's also a door opener in some cases there's been.
00:07:10.862 --> 00:07:24.814
I mean full disclosure, right, Because we're pretty transparent, but there's been games that developers have wanted us to try, but it's on Steam first, not directly on App Lab.
00:07:24.814 --> 00:07:28.389
Yet it sucks because some of them were pretty freaking good.
00:07:28.540 --> 00:07:31.709
So what you're saying now is this is a benefit to the whole VR community, right?
00:07:31.709 --> 00:07:34.228
I told you it's epic news here, man.
00:07:35.942 --> 00:07:40.050
But no, in all seriousness, it's a game changer.
00:07:40.050 --> 00:07:41.980
No pun intended yeah.
00:07:42.180 --> 00:07:43.324
I'm excited to dive into it.
00:07:43.324 --> 00:07:53.435
Really, it's going to be a challenge between exploring new titles that I couldn't access before and also, yeah, comparing ones that I have played.
00:07:53.435 --> 00:07:56.307
But you know I want to compare the difference in the two.
00:07:56.307 --> 00:07:58.807
So good times ahead for us.
00:07:59.380 --> 00:08:00.586
I'm excited to try that.
00:08:00.586 --> 00:08:05.680
I've heard it's not great, but I don't care to try that.
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:06.865
Yeah, I've heard it's not great, but I don't care.
00:08:06.865 --> 00:08:07.750
You know, I heard it wasn't great.
00:08:07.750 --> 00:08:08.192
We were day one-ers.
00:08:08.192 --> 00:08:09.055
Thanks to you, I bought that fucking game.
00:08:09.055 --> 00:08:09.297
Day one too.
00:08:09.297 --> 00:08:10.420
I was angry at you for a little while.
00:08:10.440 --> 00:08:12.305
Yeah, I got a day one as well too.
00:08:12.305 --> 00:08:16.023
Don't worry, you sold me that game, is what you before they sold me.
00:08:16.023 --> 00:08:16.745
They lied to me.
00:08:16.745 --> 00:08:20.865
I mean look the games come around now, but I'll never buy a game for them at launch.
00:08:20.906 --> 00:08:29.774
Again, fool me once I mean, we should have known it was some pretty remarkable you should hear them hyping up their next game oh no what is it?
00:08:30.437 --> 00:08:31.300
unbelievably ambitious.
00:08:31.300 --> 00:08:36.551
Well, I'm like, fool me, once I'll buy, I'll get it a year they went into hiding.
00:08:36.551 --> 00:08:38.421
That's the thing you know, you?
00:08:38.421 --> 00:08:38.984
You f up.
00:08:38.984 --> 00:08:40.148
At least be straight with me.
00:08:40.148 --> 00:08:42.940
Dude gamers, so they have to go into hiding.
00:08:44.366 --> 00:08:46.658
Now we we know developers have gotten death threats.
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:48.986
Yeah, so who knows what was going into their?
00:08:49.047 --> 00:08:53.489
inbox and the masses that bought that with the expectation of what to.
00:08:53.489 --> 00:08:54.490
But here's the thing.
00:08:54.490 --> 00:08:55.493
I'm not going to lie, dude.
00:08:55.493 --> 00:08:59.246
I always liked it, so, even in the early days.
00:08:59.246 --> 00:08:59.749
I don't.
00:08:59.980 --> 00:09:03.866
I played it maybe like a weekend and was like wow, I think I just did everything.
00:09:04.429 --> 00:09:04.691
Really.
00:09:04.691 --> 00:09:05.898
Oh no man.
00:09:05.898 --> 00:09:12.133
I tried flying to the center of the universe because I heard it could be done.
00:09:12.133 --> 00:09:22.741
And then, obviously and I was naming planets everywhere because I'm like, I'm the only person in the universe that named this planet I loved that aspect of it.
00:09:22.741 --> 00:09:23.683
This planet, I loved that aspect of it.
00:09:23.683 --> 00:09:32.903
So, even though it was probably limited to that and repetitive plant mining, we'll say or planet mining.
00:09:32.923 --> 00:09:34.326
No, I'm excited to check it out in VR, though.
00:09:34.326 --> 00:09:36.610
Same with Star Wars squadrons, all those things.
00:09:36.610 --> 00:09:37.692
I have those on my library.
00:09:37.692 --> 00:09:38.494
Oh, what's the?
00:09:38.533 --> 00:09:39.941
other, the flying one.
00:09:39.941 --> 00:09:41.125
It was put in our discord too.
00:09:41.125 --> 00:09:42.745
It was one of the ones that um.
00:09:42.745 --> 00:09:46.600
I own it.
00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:47.883
Flat screen too.
00:09:47.883 --> 00:09:49.025
It's a great flying game, dude, don't remember.
00:09:49.025 --> 00:09:52.352
Oh, it's gonna drive me crazy but whatever, yeah, so I'm excited for that.
00:09:52.352 --> 00:09:53.782
One squadrons is.
00:09:53.782 --> 00:09:58.753
I have that for xbox, I think don't play as much as I thought I would.
00:09:58.753 --> 00:10:01.806
Well different in vr, though I'm excited to check it out.
00:10:02.287 --> 00:10:12.586
So, besides the news of us getting PC VR, it was kind of cool to see B-Haptics, known for obviously their haptic devices probably the leader in.
00:10:13.354 --> 00:10:14.663
VR haptic devices too.
00:10:14.663 --> 00:10:15.746
It's the name you think of.
00:10:16.081 --> 00:10:17.980
Actually even a sponsor of this episode.
00:10:17.980 --> 00:10:23.547
You'll hear a little ad read for them later in this episode when we take a break midway through.
00:10:23.547 --> 00:10:31.369
But it was announced last week that they are now officially a made-for-meta partner and their Taksu Haptic Vests.
00:10:31.369 --> 00:10:36.292
They're 20% off until April 28th to celebrate this.
00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:38.846
So you got pretty much a week.
00:10:38.846 --> 00:10:41.206
Yeah, you got a week.
00:10:41.206 --> 00:10:44.210
Take advantage of that 20%.
00:10:44.210 --> 00:10:49.727
But they're the name that, when you hear Haptic Fest, that's the one that you're going to go to.
00:10:50.279 --> 00:11:00.587
And I'll give B-Haptics a lot of credit too, because a lot of these, I guess, VR accessory devices are PC VR only kind of back to our dilemma that we were on before being standalone.
00:11:00.587 --> 00:11:14.541
But B-Haptics, it's natively compatible with the Quest and there's so many games on the quest library that are compatible with b haptics I have a feeling it's about to get more, more intense.
00:11:14.541 --> 00:11:18.878
Yeah now that they're officially made for meta, now that their official partner, I think.
00:11:18.898 --> 00:11:19.539
I to me.
00:11:19.539 --> 00:11:21.763
I mean selfishly, because we're quest users.
00:11:21.763 --> 00:11:23.904
Um, I think it's fantastic, dudes.
00:11:23.904 --> 00:11:31.453
Not that you couldn't use it before, but now if there's being specifically made in partnership with meta.
00:11:31.453 --> 00:11:35.245
Come on, man, you got two fantastic companies.
00:11:35.345 --> 00:11:39.888
It's just going to be some cool shit coming yeah, and they have two, two models of the tax suit.
00:11:39.888 --> 00:11:43.561
You know they have a more budget-friendly one and then a more higher end one.
00:11:43.561 --> 00:11:46.571
If you want to go that route, you, you know, much like the Quest, right.
00:11:46.571 --> 00:11:51.764
So it's cool to see, though, a nice sale too 20% off, if you've ever been thinking about getting it.
00:11:52.206 --> 00:11:53.028
That's a good chunk.
00:11:53.519 --> 00:11:54.826
That's probably the time to do it.
00:11:54.826 --> 00:11:55.562
I don't.
00:11:55.562 --> 00:12:03.730
In all of our time of podcasting, man, I feel like I've only seen B haptics go on a good sale a handful of times.
00:12:04.551 --> 00:12:09.009
it's not something they do often no, I've definitely seen them promoted a lot.
00:12:09.009 --> 00:12:12.438
The reviews on them are always freaking.
00:12:12.479 --> 00:12:15.126
Everybody loves their stuff, exactly they sell more than the vest.
00:12:15.126 --> 00:12:16.309
That's just what's on sale.
00:12:16.490 --> 00:12:24.864
I mean that's like discounted that's one of the biggest selfish wishes when we started in vr was haptics and haptics man.
00:12:24.864 --> 00:12:31.374
It just makes sense, just like when they can really really master, you know, thin gloves that have pressure points.
00:12:31.374 --> 00:12:35.029
So when you grab a board or a, pipe or a gun.
00:12:35.740 --> 00:12:36.768
They do have haptic gloves.
00:12:36.889 --> 00:12:38.760
I know, be haptics, I'm just saying Be haptics has.
00:12:38.860 --> 00:12:39.642
so, man what?
00:12:39.642 --> 00:12:50.368
I'll give them crap, though I think the only thing they don't have is head, like I've seen, like they have the arms and that's kind of a beef of mine, man, because you get shot in the head so much you know I'm peek my head around a corner and in ghosts of tabor.
00:12:50.388 --> 00:12:50.788
What do you think?
00:12:50.788 --> 00:12:52.380
I'm getting shot in the chest?
00:12:52.380 --> 00:12:53.543
No, I'm getting shot in the head.
00:12:53.543 --> 00:12:54.846
It'll even say it.
00:12:54.846 --> 00:12:57.440
Or what about when you shoot people in the head.
00:12:57.801 --> 00:12:59.221
You know I love myself a good headshot.
00:12:59.221 --> 00:13:02.664
Just last night we were playing ghosts a little bandana, a little thing.
00:13:03.085 --> 00:13:04.927
Just last night we were playing Ghost of Tabor.
00:13:04.966 --> 00:13:07.708
I shoot an NPC from a good distance and I got him right in the eyeball.
00:13:07.708 --> 00:13:08.570
I was so proud of it.
00:13:08.909 --> 00:13:09.551
Oh yeah, I see you.
00:13:09.551 --> 00:13:13.793
I was covering off to the right and I see you come running over dragging him.
00:13:13.833 --> 00:13:14.674
Behind you I go.
00:13:14.674 --> 00:13:15.254
What are you?
00:13:15.274 --> 00:13:15.596
doing.
00:13:15.596 --> 00:13:17.697
I got to show you, look where I got him.
00:13:25.240 --> 00:13:26.784
I remember that I hung them out the window, yeah, of the building.
00:13:26.784 --> 00:13:28.009
We're using scarecrow decoys just hanging out, arms flapping.
00:13:28.009 --> 00:13:30.054
Oh man, I love, I love to bore dude.
00:13:30.054 --> 00:13:31.077
That was a good raid too.
00:13:31.077 --> 00:13:33.048
Yeah, that's gonna be a good one to use be haptics with.
00:13:33.048 --> 00:13:35.643
But I get exactly what you're saying because I do get shot in the head.
00:13:35.643 --> 00:13:38.976
Contractor showdowns that'll be thrill the fight.
00:13:38.976 --> 00:13:39.720
I'm gonna go into thrill.
00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:41.582
I get a haptic vest.
00:13:41.582 --> 00:13:43.765
I'm gonna go into thrill the fights with my hands up like this.
00:13:43.765 --> 00:13:48.975
It's over my head, but blocking my face and just letting people let the NPC rip the body.
00:13:48.975 --> 00:13:49.195
You know.
00:13:52.623 --> 00:14:00.034
I got to restart playing Thrill of the Fight because we got challenged for when the second one comes out.
00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:02.889
It was for when the second one comes out, not for Creed.
00:14:02.889 --> 00:14:04.533
I don't think it was for Creed.
00:14:04.480 --> 00:14:05.472
I thought it was for when Thrill of the second one comes out, not for creed.
00:14:05.472 --> 00:14:05.833
I don't think it was for creed.
00:14:05.833 --> 00:14:08.934
I thought it was for when throw the fight two comes out okay I'm down for that.
00:14:08.995 --> 00:14:09.735
Give me some train time.
00:14:09.735 --> 00:14:13.629
My shoulder's been acting up a bit, so that gives me some some practice time.
00:14:13.629 --> 00:14:26.625
Man, one time we did creed multiplayer, me and you now granted, yeah, these days creed has an endurance mode on it, because back when we played creed there was like the built-in stamina yeah, so your character could run out of stamina.
