I’d love to get into VR but not when a headset costs as much as a whole PC. Where is my no onboard processing hardware, tethered only budget headset? (That doesn’t record everything I do and send it to Zuck)
In terms of budget options you can still buy new, it’s probably pretty much just the PSVR2. Just at this moment you can get it for $300 direct from Sony (it’s listed at $399 but it’s on sale), though you’ll need to buy an adapter to use it on the PC, which is an extra $60. Still, it’s got a pretty decent resolution display, and it’s even got eye tracking, though I think you need a third-party driver to get that working.
It is tethered, though. I dunno.
PCVR is in a slump right now, though, and at this price, I don’t know that Frame is gonna fix that. It might not be the best time to buy new.
I’m still loving my HTC Vive that I bought second hand a few years ago for €300. The Vive is probably too low-res for most (it does have terrible “screen door” effect), but you can get the Valve Index for about that price now, based on a very quick scan of ebay listings.
