I got my Oculus Go and I’ve come to realise VR sucks without motion controls. Even something as simple as the Move controllers vastly improve it. I don’t need roomscale, but I do need the ability to use both hands freely.
The controller sent with the headset is so bad, it’s limiting the headset and I’m thinking of returning the unit it’s so bad. I did think it would at least be as good as the WiiMote.... it cannot even do that, so basic games like ping pong are impossible.
Oculus really need a proper motion controller solution for the headset, without it I think it’s just going to die. I doubt it would take much to just have a battery powered IR blaster and simple tracking like the Wii.

GO was a GearVR replacement and probably about 12 months too late. Launching GO and Santa Cruz so close together is a mistake imo.

The Go is an attempt at VR for the masses, the problem is it’s impressing no one. I’ve give it to people at work to try this morning and they all say it sucks. It all comes down to the controller being so limiting.

I know this this myself because I own a Rift and it’s the motion controls that make it. I own a PSVR as well and even those move controllers are enough to make you feel immersed.
Without motion controls, it’s not VR IMO. Tbh it’s possible for GO to get them released separately, there is no limiting factor there other than them wanting to get initial cost down.
I also wish’d It was USB C and not Micro frigging USB.
That feeling of being able to have two hands in the game is amazing. It’s what sold me on VR with the Rift Touch controls, it is 100 percent necessary as the screen and lenses are...

Just wait for Santa Cruz and pretend GO never happened.
