VR Isn’t Dying Or Dead - It Is Uncomfortable Though
Maybe it was the aggressive amount of work I did that day, but I just could not get the Meta Quest 3 headset to sit comfortably on my head. This is despite upgrading from the default headstrap to the Elite Strap. Honestly, the headset feels almost unusable for more than thirty minutes without the elite strap and I think that it should come with one by default, but that’s only part of the problem.
What bothered me more was the weight of it, despite the Meta Quest 3 being slimmer than the Quest 2, it is still about as heavy. Sure the weight sits closer to your face so it feels lighter, but the weight of the device is apparent despite it being packaged more comfortably.
Regardless of the improvements made in Virtual Reality head mounted display technology, it’s still a big hunk of stuff strapped to your face, and the fact that you need to strap it in place, even if those straps are well-designed and comfortable, means that there’s going to be pressure on your head from the weight of the device.
The Thrill Of The Fight Quest 3 Update Looks Great And Adds Mixed Reality
It’s no secret that The Thrill Of The Fight is one of, if not the, best VR fitness and fighting games out there. Of course, this depends on who you ask, but here at Reality Remake I’ve gushed many times about how fantastic this game is for fun workouts and just fun in general.
If you want a fantastic VR boxing experience then there really is no substitute for The Thrill Of The Fight.
While The Thrill Of The Fight 2 still seems so tantalizingly close yet far away as it remains in development, for the time being, the original The Thrill Of The Fight has received a fantastic update for Meta Quest 3 headsets.

So Meta Announced the Quest 3. If you haven't seen the trailer then you'll want to know that it costs 500 dollars, and the Quest 2 will now cost 300 dollars. Also, the Quest 3 looks pretty awesome. Whether or not it'll run great, feel great, and look great kind of remains to be seen for sure when people get to use it, but it's looking like it will be fantastic.
