> the main appeal and gateway into VR for normies
I tried VR for phones and I did not even know what to do with it, since many things seem to need some kind of device.
>If you already have a half-decent PC (anything above a GTX 970 and any decent CPU from 2015 or later) you can have fun in VR by just buying a headset. The HP Reverb G2 is a good budget option but the $1200 Valve Index is a better headset over the long-term if you want fullbody tracking.
I have a ryzen 5 1600 with a RX570, I don't think I'm going far with it and I thought that I could simply upgrade and just pay an extra 1000 for a valve headset and 2000, just because I wanted my first foray into VR to be perfect without anything that pulls me out of the VR world and also serves for the long run. But since pc components have gone really expensive as of late, it has become a far more difficult desition.
