Yeah I was watching a video that was an early look of the the Valve Index and they sort of describe it as 1.5, not 2.0. 2.0 adds things and gets rid of what doesn't work in favor of stuff that does.

1.5 imo means we have simply improved what was already there. If Vive is 1.0, and Vive Pro is idunno 1.3, then Valve Index might be 1.5 or even 1.8 lol. But I don't think it's 2.0 yet. I mean, recall the jump from Playstation 1 to 2, and 3 to 4. Pretty huge jumps, and VR has a lot more going on (as in, a lot more areas to improve) than a console.

I don't think that diminishes the advancements in any way, shape, or form because getting rid of the screen-door effect is a pretty big deal imo, but 2.0 will need a bit more than that.

Just my $0.02 but I feel that VR "2.0" will need headset-mounted sensors, and to completely do away with having placed tracking sensors of any kind. Controllers will also need to be better. Screen-door effect needs to be gone completely. Larger play area for games that require movement would be nice as well.

VR 3.0 will hopefully be within 10 years and that when we will get wireless headsets

@darthbuzzard: Most people would disagree. Jrpgs are niche games, that dont interest the vast majority of gamers. Not only does the genre mot interest me, but I genuinely cant handle the stereotypical jrpg hero; spikey haired Male figures with no noses, and doe eyed females with mostly giggle inducing enemies. Add to that the laughable dialogue and translation from Japanese.

Same goes for 90 percent of anime cartoons. Awful.

Not saying you have bad taste in gaming because you like them, but saying I do because I cant stand them is kinda silly....because everyone has different tastes.

Come on OP. Like you really even care about VR? Even when Oculus Rift was revealed I was like "Yeah this is not going to catch on." VR like the motion controls sound cool but no one really liked them enough to stay. The most common complaint about both tech is there is no tactile feedback which I guess people gave a crap about. Then on top of that motion controls and VR tech when it came to gaming was just abit too all over the place when it came to accuracy. So yeah VR is cool for the gaming enthusiasts but when it comes to staying around it was never going to have a true mainstream appeal imo.

@darthbuzzard: Personally, I'd rather have my fingernails ripped out, whilst being forced to listen to Celine Dion, but as always theres some people who would like that too.

VR is about as unimportant to me as jrpgs. A vr jrpg would be my ultimate nightmare.

I'm more interested into seeing what next gen VR headset will look like especially on PC VR has spoiled me. Yeah I'm looking forward to see next gen graphics but being in VR takes it to a whole new level of being mind blown by tech looking at a tv or monitor can't replicate being fully immersed into a game.
