They are not saying rift quality, they are repeatedly saying - "A Rift like an experience" meaning 6doF and Touch controllers, not quality of games



Yep, and they also openly stated more than once that the Rift is the platform that lets us push the boundaries beyond the limitations of Quest and GO. Neither Quest nor GO will hold back Rift progress whatsoever.

Although they did give us insight in to what has been "taking so long." First, they wanted to finalize their 3 categories of First Gen products. That is accomplish with Rift, GO, and Quest.

Second, they were rebuilding the entire Rift Platform "from scratch, from the ground up." That is complete today with the new Oculus Home platform coming out of Beta and going live for everyone.

Christ i thought he was going to announce Rift 2 then.  Jesus.



Mark Z already confirmed that a Rift 2 will be released. Hopefully we'll get more info on that of course.

I am betting that is all that will be said about it. Their focus is elsewhere currently I think.

Zero has tickled my fancy yet 



Yep.  Superhot looks good.  You never know, might feel "different" in a Quest.

Probably not though.

Why is this man saying "cool", and "sick"?

I'm inclined to agree. The current goal is to push Oculus Quest. Too much glorifying of the CV2 would harm Quest potential sales. This is all long-term strategy.

They also openly stated that current Rift projects are being worked on with releases through 2020.
