More of this, Ive never actually seen decent pokemon play and this is awesome. Ive played a bunch of the games but only ever single player and you never really need to engage too much with the higher levels of play due to the low difficulty

@miceman64: Of course, I have no issues with taking a break at all. I'm just pointing out that A: there was no confirmation that they will, in fact, finish DBZ when it returns and B: taking a DBZ break at this point feels weird. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with it but it does feel undeniable odd to take a break at 90% through the series rather than, say, the half way point. Just an observation, not complaining or saying they should do things differently.

Stopping on the second to last saga of the series is absolutely killing me. It feels almost like the guys dont realize that the next episode literally picked up the next week, it wasnt some long break that they came back to. It's just the stupid way they released Kai that makes it seem that way

The real heart of it here for me is that, in many ways much Like when the first iPhone came out without a subsidy option, the decision to get this or not is going to be extremely personal. In @austin_walker 's storify there is that bit at the very end, about how once you get to a price this high people will start questioning what alternative they could get with the same money and that is exactly why I am getting an oculus.

In that comment it is mentioned how "all I know is I could get a new monitor and a gpu upgrade for that and i ~know~ I will get games that take advantage of those" and this is totally correct, if a $600 upgrade to your setup will make a big enough impact on your experience as the rift will. Personally, being someone fortunate enough to already have a tower capable of running the rift, a $600 upgrade would actually be marginal at best (going from a 970 to a 980ti is essentially all that $600 means, which would be great if I wanted to move up to 4k but that also adds another extremely high expense via a new monitor. As long as I stay 1080 that upgrade would be meaningless) whereas if I spend said $600 on an Oculus, I now have an entire new world of experiences to explore.

Also a fair note, as someone who had borrowed a DK2 for months I have the luxury of knowing for a fact that VR is more then worth that price (to me obviously, subjective opinions and all) so there is really no risk of it being a poor investment to me.

The Oculus Rift is a great example of how value is such a subjective concept.

While that "Dawkin's esque elitism" line felt like a really cheap blow that was below you, this was otherwise a fantastic write up. Solid work from @austin_walker
