    I’m in the other camp. The first time I squeezed my 155m spaceship through the tiny mouth of a rotating space station in VR, I wept like a baby. (An Anaconda in Elite: Dangerous)

      First time I logged into the corvette and looked down the ship, it completely changed the game.

      Just wish headsets weren’t so heavy.

        I put a counterweight on the backstrap of mine, now it feels much less lopsided on my head

          Yeah getting a new headset for the Oculus with a battery in the back is a comfort game changer. It’s not the weight of the headset that’s a problem, it’s that it’s all front loaded.

          I have this counterweight style on my fpv drone, it is nicer… but that headset is also much lighter overall
