For those who think they can buy Google Cardboard etc instead of Oculus Rift to play PC games.

Today I wanted to try Alien: Isolation with my Gear VR. Used 3rd party app and everything went perfect. After 10-15 minutes I had a terrible headache and eye pain for two hours.

Some people compare VRs like Google Cardboard or Gear VR to Oculus Rift and they think they can play PC games with Google Cardboard perfectly.

Just wanted to tell, never try it.

Tried TrinusVR, it was so hard for me. Then I found a app called IntugameVR. It was looking "nice"

I am planning something similar. I tried Trinus without the cardboard clone I am planning to get and it worked fine with skyrim. I might just try it out for the sake of it, the headset I am looking at really cheap ($35). If it doesn't work I am sure I will find some other use for it.

Even with the proper VR headsets like the Rift, lots of people get headaches and other stuff, especially if they do it for any extended period.

Yeah, but I am using it for one month and never had a headache except this.

Still deciding where to get my datajack implant. A fake fingertip is so cliche, but still looks badass.

Humans are using their eyes to stare at screens longer than ever before it seems and screen technology is progressing; will there be more humans wearing eyeglasses than compared to the past? An "eyeglasses epidemic" if you will.

Question: did you use VR before?

Everybody reports headaches after first VR try. And second. And sometimes even third...
