VR Beginners Guide – VR Jargon Explained

This page is made for my big VR comparison video as a lot of these terms are used in that video or in any VR review video for that matter. It’s helpful to know these terms if you’re looking to buy your first VR headset in 2022. Scroll down for the terms!

PC VR
PC VR is where you’ll find the highest quality visuals and the most ambitious VR games like Asgard’s Wrath or Half-Life: Alyx. This does mean you’ll need a pretty powerful gaming PC to plug your headset into. So that’s gonna add to the price.

Standalone VR

A standalone VR headset is an all-in-one headset. It comes with all the hardware built-in like the processor and RAM to run content without the need of a PC.

Inside-Out Tracking & Outside-In (SteamVR)

Inside-out tracking is a method of positional tracking specifically for tracking the position of VR headsets and motion controllers. This is usually done with sensors or cameras built-in the headset. Headsets that use inside-out tracking are for example Meta Quest 2, Vive Cosmos, and HP Reverb G2.

YouTube Video VVVOMEZHcVV0N2U3OXhLb1BBWlE4dHd3LlFxTlJSdERneXRF Red Matter 2 is the sequel, and again, the devs claim that they will deliver the best graphics on mobile VR to date. I got early access to the game, so today, I wanted to show you if they kept their promise with a Quest 2 vs PC VR side-by-side comparison.

The first game released on Quest in 2019 and was praised for its incredible game visuals. It was amazing because the game looked so beautiful on a mobile VR headset with very limited processing power, especially when compared to an expensive gaming PC. Yet, the developer Vertical Robot did it and made the most beautiful game on Quest.

Red Matter 2 is a puzzle adventure game releasing on August 18th for $30 on Quest 2, Rift, and Steam. The sequel continues the sci-fi story of the first game. Again, you’re an astronaut trying to uncover what happened in this Dystopian Cold War, except this time, you’ll explore the far reaches of the solar system where you’ll face the Red Matter more unleashed than ever.

You need to do these 3 things to successfully mod Blade & Sorcery on Quest 2!
► This is one of the BEST-rated VR games for a reason: Moss: Book II is now available on META Quest 2! https://ocul.us/3Opc8GW

So I wanted to dive into mods for Blade and Sorcery because it looks so friggin’ fun. I mean, come on. BUT then I noticed I wasn’t on the right game version, so none of the mods I installed worked. It turns out you need to manually enable the massive update 11, which is still in beta for Quest 2, even though it has been out for a few weeks already.

Since I had to figure this out, I thought, why not share it with you if you run into the same problem? Plus, I’ll share how to mod Blade and Sorcery on Quest 2 in just two easy steps. I’ll tell you right now, it’s gonna be worth it.

Thanks to Polyarc for sponsoring today's video!

The Pico Neo 3 Link is almost coming to the US market which makes it a direct competitor to the Meta Quest 2 but is it good enough? ► Check out Ridge Wallet here: https://ridge.com/casandchary Use Code “CASANDCHARY” for 10% off your order

Pico sent me the Neo 3 Link to check out and it’s interesting! It's very similar to Meta Quest 2 in design, specs and now even in standalone games. There's also one feature not available on Quest, which by itself could be a reason to buy this headset. However, Pico is missing something huge. Let's talk about it today.

I know I'm a bit later on this but I was on vacation! Still want to share my thoughts, I mean more reviews can't be bad right?

This video is brought to you buy Ridge Wallet. Thanks to them for sponsoring today's video.

Interpupillary distance (IPD)

This is the distance between the centers of the pupils of your eyes in millimeters. This is important to know because most headsets can be adjusted to your exact or close IPD value. This is needed for if you want the best visual clarity (and no headache).

Difference between 3DoF & 6DoF

Or this Reddit post.

Foveated Rendering

This is a rendering technique that helps a headset (or PC) render fewer pixels in the peripheral areas while maintaining the highest resolution in the center of your vision.

Field of View (FOV)

FOV refers to how much you can see with your eyes in the VR headset. Lower FOV will usually give you more of a ski-goggles look as you’ll see black edges around the screens. Human field is somewhere around 210°×150°, which is not yet achieved on a VR headset.

HMD

Sort for Head-mounted Display, a.k.a. VR headset 🙂
