:dunno

I bet thisismyusername can modify that post to make an argument for penis instead of pegging

Quote from: LewieP modified
A real shame. There is a warm feeling you get when pegged by a real dick that you can't really replicate with non-flesh based appendages.

:ohhh You know, you're right.

prostate orgasms feel amazing
id recommend getting over stupid thoughts like "does doing 'x' make me gay"

At the end of the day, I think we can all agree with this (except A_I_A who's masculinity would be challenged by it  :doge ). But I'll never get the "get fucked by your woman" pegging. Because at that point your might as well get a pre-op male to female transexual for that. :doge (:donot in before Himu offense) Or get an actual guy that knows to bang your prostate like it's going out of style for the best orgasm. :yeshrug

But what if you just want to feel something in your butt... But a naked man is just a turn off?

Then get a sex toy that isn't a strap-on. :doge There's plenty of those to do the same where you don't have the be the submissive if that's what stops you from being with another guy. I'm trying to find that T-shaped prostate stimulator that I'm forgetting the name of.

I dunno. I'm just thinking if you wanna get slammed in the ass I don't find it that weird that you might want something physically attractive to you to do it. It makes sense to me. You want to be pounded, but dudes aren't hot to you. Chicks are. Oh hey! I can have my woman do it? Cool I guess. Doesn't seem like that big of a jump in logic.

I mean, sure. But at the same time the logic to me is "well I want to be pounded in the ass" to where "by a woman" doesn't factor in. Being pounded is being pounded to me. It's just (to me) one-degree from having another dude plow you. So you might as well go that route and get it over with. :yeshrug

It's amazing seeing how bitch made democrats/liberals are. Trump is losing, badly. It's not really close. Yet I can't look at my timeline without seeing liberals hand wringing and crying that the media isn't stomping Trump as much now that he's smart enough to stop saying racist/bigoted/etc shit openly. They're scared of a loss and acting like the media is helping Trump.

Can you imagine what this race would look like if republicans were smart and nominated Kasich? The desperation and anger would be so high. Granted I'd be angry/depressed too but jeez. I wouldn't be blaming the media for the failures of my candidate.

Can you imagine if Trump was running against an actually good candidate/politician like Obama? Or even Biden with his flaws...no one can say he's not honest. Imagine that type of honesty and realness running against Trump's bullshit.

I'm not equating Hillary being meh to Trump being a racist/bigot/etc etc. Obviously she is the better choice. But I'm watching this like wow, you're literally going to win because the other party was dumb enough to nominate a con man. If not for that you'd probably be fucked.

Which is incorrect. The male G-spot is in the anus. This is indisputable. You can desire that to be stimulated without being attracted to men or penises.

No one in that thread is mentiong Elite which is unanimously considered a great implementation of VR on PC. Tells you how much of a non factor a title like Driveclub VR, with a slighty larger user base, will be.

I think that PSVR offers a couple of interesting / exclusive VR experiences, some of them tailored for specific markets like Japan.

You're speaking of Summer Lessons and DoAX3, aren't you ?
 :uguu :jared

Yeah I get that PSVR is more accessible, slighty less expensive and may have a more constant flux of games (though Sony don't exactly have an history of trying too hard with peripherals) but colour me skeptical. Gaming being a locomotive for VR is not something I am convinced of.

EDIT :

Might do sort of OKish on PS4. Not expecting big numbers at all.

But yeah, it was bound to be more or less DOA on PC. It's mostly shitty "experiences", price of entry is ridiculous, and it's pretty much just order online. So it was never going to sell a decent amount.

Until VR has a "killer-app" moment that makes you think "damn, I should pay $400-500+ for this experience!" instead of "that's a neat tech-demo" VR will not "take-off." Even the PS4 version (which will probably look slightly worse than PC stuff a year or two ago? Not sure if newer GPU's have came out to improve the quality/resolutions for them) isn't going to light the world on fire.

:neogaf at the quoted poster making it into Gamergate for VR failing. But anyway, the linked poster is semi-correct: Nobody wants it. Waggle was the "VR" moment, and that flatlined when new experiences weren't that compelling. Once bitten... and all that.

A few months ago I was pretty hyped for VR but as said above there is no killer app.

Still would be great to play things like Firewatch and other walking simulators, especially if they didn't use Unity and had stable framerates on consoles.

Honestly, GT would be the only title capable of making a small difference. Natural fit into the game, lots of visibility and fan audiences willing and able to indulge. Could sell several dozen thousand PSVR on its own. But that's literally the biggest thing they could throw at it and it's not happening anytime soon...

Except most people that want VR driving sims are already on PC with Occulus/Vive. So I mean... why would they buy a PSVR and GT when that experience on PC is already there for them?

And the folks that don't care about VR certainly aren't going to buy GT for it or vice-versa. It just seems extremely misguided to pin your hopes on a series that has been mismanaged since the end of the PS2 era for new tech adoption.

The PSVR is cheaper than the Oculus/Vive and there are plenty of people who only play games on consoles. I'm not expecting it to sell well, but there is certainly a niche market for it.

And my point is, that market is already on PC. I can't see see PSVR attracting a majority of folks that don't already have an Occulus or Vive or a PC. Outside of hardcore NeoGAF Sony stans, I don't know anyone that is enthused by Sony's offering to the game.

And that's where I'm coming from: GT won't "save" VR for Sony because anyone that wanted GT isn't getting it for VR and anyone that wanted VR already has it on PC (or is waiting for Sony's offering if they're insane and hoping things like GT will come out for it eventually). There's no market for it, IMO.

I always find the "b-b-but it cost x$ to make!" argument dumb. It's as if things like R&D, labor, manufacturing setup and process, research into said manufacturing setup and process if it's new tech, cost to staff the company, utilities, logistics, rent etc... don't fucking exist.

Just like those distinguished mentally-challenged looking controller mock-ups. Seems like they're going thru some sort of "Touchscreen everything!!11!" kick.
-Embedding physical buttons in the middle of LCD screen... lolwut?
-Hepatic touch to make up the loss of buttons? So make it like mobile gaming platform that they were all nonplussed about. B-b-b-but it's Nintendo! It'll just werk!
-Shape and size that's just not human centric. Especially that bigger one that's like almost like a double decker version of the duke controller.

Also seems like the whole NMS thing have died down. Kinda unfortunate because I enjoyed the mental acrobat the Sean Murray alts were using to defend that hot mess. Seems like the whole "Stay quiet and it'll go away" tactic worked out for them after all.


As far as VR goes, I still think Vive is the only one thus far that's closer to the ideal of VR tech. As long as VR is treating you like a ball pivoting on a stick, you're not gonna get immersed. Also another problem I feel is that they need to find a way to not have the screen shooting light straight into your eyes but reflected via a mirror or something to avoid fatigues and strain.

This was so predictable. It's hilarious that the insular, cult like dedication to high end tech on GAF purposely blinded people to this. The mantra there has been "VR is the future, if you disagree you're trolling and banned."

You can't sell casual tech like this without some type of hook or killer app. So far all the games I've seen look repetitive and like little more than tech demos. As if the tech alone is going to make people spend $400 on this instead of a new phone or laptop or whatever other stuff people actually use daily.

Oculus could sell it for a $50 loss for $150. Imagine how fast it'd sell then.

Yes, the Oculus costs $200 to make

Loss leading is apparently a foolproof 100% strategy to some Gaffers.

I always find the "b-b-but it cost x$ to make!" argument dumb. It's as if things like R&D, labor, manufacturing setup and process, research into said manufacturing setup and process if it's new tech, cost to staff the company, utilities, logistics, rent etc... don't fucking exist

Does Oculus even have another solid revenue stream ? Doubt that digital app shop is bottled fire. The most hilarious thing about the argument is that it seems to be rooted in myopic consumer greed and convenience or at best (!) in insane fanboy economic logic about the importance of market dominance.

VR will succeed eventually but only as an add-on to another product like a PC or a phone or a console. The general consumer will not pay for just a VR set for many years to come.

It just blows my mind, how people downplay VR (as well as the impact of the Wii). VR has the possibility of sending people in infinity universes of infinity possibilities and experience it with our major senses. Seeing those worlds, interact with other people or simply interactiving with objects is extremely exciting. And this is just the beginning. How anybody can see this as niche is just very strange to me ... true VR is one of humanity endgames and we see the first steps into this direction.

VR will succeed eventually but only as an add-on to another product like a PC or a phone or a console. The general consumer will not pay for just a VR set for many years to come.

The minute Apple announces their VR set that works with an iPhone is when the public will at least be interested. A $150 accessory to a contract phone is a way easier sell than a $400 console and a $499 VR starter kit. I recently got a Huawei P9 and the image quality is beautiful on it. There's going to be a VR headset out by the end of the year so for the €80 or so they want like the Gear VR. That's an easy impulse buy. Especially if it doesn't have a risk of literally exploding in their face like Samsung's :doge

But then a lot of the problem with VR is no one wants to admit the games are absolute gash and not worth buying an expensive dohickey for. Wii, that was both good games with a well implemented gimmick that had something for everyone for the most part. And a cheap as fuck console to boot. Piss easy impulse purchase buy. PSVR's biggest "Buy this" titles are a cut down version of Driveclub with most of the elements of Driveclub GAF wanked off to stripped out like the Weather Effects and Battlezone. The rest are mini-games, gimmicks, meme games and the same Waggle everyone was sick of when the Wii was mercifully put down. Talk about the games and GAF can't give you an answer just that "VR is revolutionary" and "It doesn't matter if the games are good. The tech is revolutionary". And it's not a situation in 2013 where Nintendo and Microsoft took turns unloading bullets in their feet since they are first in console space to do this. They have to prove the case for VR now. And it doesn't look good. Especially since it lacks the mobile VR advantage of your very own seedy back alley porn theater.

We're gonna eat just fine though  :delicious
