After the mess at the end of last month, we figured we might as well use some of the money we've saved for the canceled trip and get ourselves a VR headset. So that's what we did.
It wasn't the easiest thing to get used to, what with the weight of the headset and the motion sickness and how much it heats up on your forehead, but we can play semi-comfortably now.
I mostly play Beat Saber. It's a rhythm game, so of course I went into it with a rhythm-game mindset, so I got angry at it real fast. I didn't read the manual, which was unlike me, so I thought the timing of the blocks was off. I only noticed it later on that the timing wasn't graded, the quality of the cuts were. So I'm happier with it now, after I found out about it. It also has tons of custom fan-made song maps, which are... hit or miss, but they are fun to explore nonetheless. And since we're locked into the house, it makes for a pretty good workout, too.
We have some ideas about how to utilize VR controls in a game project, so who knows, once we have some more time for our own projects, maybe we'll create something in, VR too.
Also, we got our hands on a Gameboy Printer.
That thing is a blast. I mean, it's totally obsolete and really unnecessary, but that's what makes it so awesome.
Oh, and we're playing a lot of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, too. It's a really good game, so good in fact that Lussy bought a new Switch just so we could both play at the same time - as full fledged players, not just glorified NPCs.
But the console is in postal-limbo at the moment... hope we'll get it soon.
