Virtual Reality Domains (VR)

Spaceship Spaceship
Watch
Im betting big bucks on VR domains have a great future and with the big boys buying up VR companies, mainstream is a stones throw away.....

Lots of VR+keyword.com taken years ago and I noticed this sale a week or so back -

VRTechnology.com $3688

This was a steel and I can soon see everything from VRPoker / VRCasinos / VRShopping / VRBrowsing / VRTours / VRWorlds / etc etc....having a high price tag even now at the start of VR hitting mainstream...

I have just paid $x,xxx for a name but will not be showcasing as the domain is in escrow at present....

Feel free to showcase your VR domains If you like...

Cheers

It's funny how a lot of sites compare the Oculus Rift pricing to the Vive. What they often fail to mention is that the Vive is a complete package. Anyone who orders the Oculus will have to spend more money on controllers at a later unknown date.

I understand how people are disappointed that the Oculus or Vive aren't under $300 as we once hoped they would be. I would however be extremely disappointed in both Oculus and HTC/Valve if they chose to release lower quality hardware for the sake of offering lower prices. I don't know about anyone else, but I want awesome technology now. Life is too short to wait years for hardware to progressively get better at a slower rate. Mind you, it's still like that to some agree. We will see improvements, but I think we're off to a good start.

Negative article, but some fair points, some good comments below too:-

http://www.geek.com/news/the-dream-of-virtual-reality-is-dead-for-now-1647884/

Pretty retarded text if you ask me:

"The entire reason VR saw a resurgence was Oculus creating the idea of a $300 VR headset."

I wasn't excited about VR because I thought it would cost $300. I was excited by it because it appeals to the human spirit on so many fundamental levels and it's been something we've been waiting for since the 60s.

Like many of the commentors said, a high initial cost didn't stop the smartphone (or the regular phone for that matter), the microwave, the TV, the car, the radio, the list goes on. Some of these tech writers are a little too aspie sometimes, focusing strictly on numbers, leading to strange conclusions that gives a distorted and faulty picture of the phenomenon they are trying to describe.

I read this earlier and thought it was a pretty weak article. His only point is that the Oculus and Vive are more expensive then anticipated. It was already widely accepted that the Gear VR and other mobile headsets would drive the first wave of vr anyway. It seems a ridiculous argument. The Oculus and Vive are $200 or so more expensive than we thought they would be and that will kill the vr industry?? For a new technology, vr is priced lower than the first generation of smartphones, hd tvs, and more recently, 4K tvs. It looks like we're going to have headsets covering three price ranges - the Gear VR for cheap but decent quality, the Playstation VR for the mid-range buyers, and the Oculus and Vive for the committed looking for high quality. This seems ideal to me. It also ignores the fact that the pre-orders for the Oculus sold out much quicker than expected (apparently).

My feeling is that haptics are going to only get bigger and bigger in the VR world

I think a lot of people are excited by it, including the person who wrote it.

I think the whole point of the article is not everyone has got $800 + more money for a powerful computer to run it, average Joe sees that price tag in a shop, they'll walk straight past along with a swear word in disapproval.

If it was $300, it's still high but doable. People will pay that kind of money for a smartphone because people need phones and a phone is the most important object in a lot of peoples life (socialising/computer/music/games/camera/Netflix/Wattsapp/Skype/Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/YouTube etc).

People don't need VR in their lifes right now to make people pay that kind of money in the way 'some' people did upgrading TV's to 3D as an example (people need TV's in their life). I think that's the whole point of it - No one is dismissing the potential of VR but the price tag could put a spoke in the wheel and no killer app yet = lack of need.

What VR does have going for it though is mobile VR - Samsung giving away free headsets for S7 pre-orders and Facebook owning Oculus, 1.6 billion Facebook users seeing advertisements and apps for 360 Videos - I'm reading things about Vive being better than Oculus, but for me the future of VR relies a lot on Oculus owned Facebook and how they promote it and deals they make (like with Samsung and the GearVR).

HTC seems to do little promoting and i don't believe have any plans for mobile Vive.

The equivalent of virtualreality in an established ccTLD with a solid aftermarket :)

It's still early, so don't delete your top tier VR names just yet. This is a pretty tame article, and for the most part, media naysayers have been relatively quiet in this niche, which is unusual for an emerging tech. Especially one with such a consistent history of failure.

IMO, we need far more articles like this, and from far more major sources. It is quite natural, and healthy, to have the views from the other side of things. They help keep things grounded and in perspective, while pointing out areas of opportunity that most may overlook. This helps push makers toward more realistic pricing, and vast proactive improvements, moving forward with the industry, and the products supporting it.

for every article that puts vr down is another one that praises it.. and in this case, probably more than a 1:1 ratio too.

its the web.. its human nature.. let's get used to it.
