The free Alpha Demo on Oculus QUEST is out ! news - Project Terminus
Terminus is a FPS action / horror / survival with Half-Life vibes. The game will take place in the city of Paris, suddenly submerged in chaos, when an invasion from unknown sources breaks out in the city. Paris will gradually become a large quarantine...www.indiedb.com
Edit: I just tried that Terminus alpha/demo thingie. It's pretty well done all things considered. The fov seems to be a tad off for Rift so there's some distortion, but other than that it looks fairly decent, the interactions with things like doors, drawers and cupboards is actually rather intuitive and natural, but the usable held objects can feel off without the proper animation/hand pose and what not, I guess that stuff is early still, especially the axe. The phone is damn cool though with an AR style interface. I turned the game off after the first enemies I avoided by ducking behind a kiosk thing with a cash register, I didn't want to try and get past them or see if they'd return, lol. Next time. Anyway, this is a project to watch if they get to make it into a full game as their intent is, there's a solid base here already. I didn't even mind there's no artificial turning method included, just your physical movement, though I'd hope they will include stick turning later on too.
New teasier video for this awesome project:

Can’t Git Gud
Since index is rumored to be restocked a little bit, let me ask some questions :
1) what is the focal distance compared to S? Is it short sighted friendly? S is about 1 meter I think and it was the only oculus headset which was sharp to me without glasses (I am short sighted)
2) is index setup a mess of cables?
3)are new lighthouse loud and spinning all the time?
4)which has better god Ray's and optics. S or Index?
Any idea when S will be restocked?

1 - I wear contacts so I can't help you there, but you can move the lenses closer or further away which might help.
2 - There's a single cable running to the headset, which splits near your computer. There's a longer (detachable) cable for the power adapter, how messy you make it is up to you.
3 - They vibrate less than the Vive versions, haven't noticed them at all. (You can have them turn on/off with the headset.)
4 - Don't have an S, won't get an S. It's much improved from a Vive in all respects.

Steam :: Boiling Steel :: “Boiling Steel” VR sci-fi shooter launched via Steam
MiroWin, the developer of the popular Guns’n’Stories: Bulletproof VR, is proud to inform, that their latest VR FPS story-based VR shooter Boiling Steel is released in Steam today.
It looks like this just came out of early access and presumably incorporates all these things I actually quite liked what I played of it before, it was a bit repetitive and slow perhaps but with videos like the above they seem to have taken measures to improve it all.

For those that have the rift s i am having a couple of issues and google hasn't been that helpful.
As far as the device it self goes every time i remove my headset it gets stuck on the 3 dots plus grey expanse loading screen. I need to close the oculus program and restart it so it loads again. That goes for when i am in game too. Is there a way to avoid this? When i am in Lone echo i get a message that the left controller can't be found make sure its paired etc and the screen is stuck on the three dots. When i am out i don't get any messages just the loading screen.
As far as Lone Echo goes i am having performance issues. I get extreme fps drops (like sub 10) and when i turn my head i see a black wall (level hasn't loaded). Didn't happen from the start. I have everything on max so i guess i can try dropping some settings but my pc should be able to run it without any problems.

Opted in but didn't seem to help. I doubt its as tracking issue as well since while its infinite loading out of lone echo i can actually use both controllers fine. I can hear or even see some times the home area load but it switches to the grey area with the dots.
Edited to add i found the issue with lone echo it was the antialiasing in the game. It is off by default. I turned it on that was what was dropping the fps so much (not sure why though). Apart from that its a pretty good game so far (for sci-fi fans especially).

Just got an initial batch Index.
So exciting! It's been so long since I honestly looked forward to trying out new games. Modern gaming is just so similar overall.
So many VR games that I didn't pay attention to because I couldn't play yet. And yes, I know that big games are still rare.
