Not really sure why you're a fan of FB messenger. Whatsapp is quite superior.

It's just a group chat between some of the people in this thread. Majority of which are Bronies. Some days it's pretty active, others it can be dead, but personally, I'm quite happy with it considering it allowed me to get to know people from the thread better, and I'm glad I did.

Agree with everything [emoji106]

It's understandable to not like fb but kinda stupid to not use anything fb owns just because it owns it
[Off-topic] Alucai Vivorvel:
I don't think either of you understand just how big of a betrayal this really is.

The issue is not that Facebook in particular bought them (although some have problems with that too). What everyone should be focusing on is that the Rift was only possible because of the Kickstarter backers. The deal was that people give Oculus money to start building their project, and using that funding, and funding from pre-orders of the first and second development kits, they would build the final product (with some donations and deals with game developers on the side).

What ended up happening instead was that the Kickstarter backers basically helped Oculus get enough recognition to be bought out. It doesn't even matter in the end who bought them (although I can easily see Facebook ruining this, because they do NOT have a good track record of dealing with game developers). It's the fact that they allowed themselves to be bought out in the first place.

Here are some quotes from The Verge. You'll find that most major news articles will have similar quotes, but this one in particular I thought you should note:

And in the end, that's honestly what has me, personally, the most upset. I sincerely doubt that the "indie essence" or spirit will be maintained. Many developers, not just Notch, are pulling out, because Facebook has an awful history of treating its games developers like crap.

Oh, there's also this:

Yeah, I have a feeling that's NOT what people signed up for... Pretty much everybody who backed the Oculus Rift, whether via Kickstarter or developing software for it or just expressing verbal support, was looking forward to the gaming aspect of it.

And you're kidding yourself if you think Facebook is going to focus on the gaming market.

Also, this. I just thought it was funny, and emphasizes a point I saw elsewhere: "I refuse to wear something with a Facebook logo on the front of it."

Name one gaming company Facebook ruined by buying them or mistreating them or whatever
[Off-topic] Alucai Vivorvel:
Heck if I know a particular company or developer, I hate Facebook gaming. I'm going off of what Markus Persson/Notch said, among other comments by people who claim to be developers.

Speaking of Notch, here's the full quote of what he said, from Forbes:
[Off-topic] :
I totally agree.

Do people really think Facebook will have the same focus on games as Oculus?

It'll just be another stupid thing to try and integrate social media to everything and force people to use Facebook.

This deal wasn't to build a better, more immersive gaming platform.

This deal was solely to line the pockets of Facebook.
[Off-topic] ext109:
Ok I get that the investors are mad. But what about all the other hate? Half of the world saying they're gonna stop using whatsapp? The hate towards Facebook itself..? Facebook provides a good social website. In fact, they provide the best social website at the moment. Then it got sold to the public and everyone suddenly got upset because of weird reasons..

Sent from my royal Nexus 5 using Equestria Daily app
[Off-topic] :
I'm fine with Facebook being a social network.

But when they try and force Facebook upon everyone by buying other businesses with the sole intention of getting more users, that is bad.

This doesn't just apply to Facebook.

I was also mad when Google integrated G+ to YouTube. It was an uncompetitive move not to make YouTube better, but instead to try and force Google+ upon people.

If I want to avoid a company, or a product/service from that company, I should be able to. I should be able to have an Oculus Rift without a Facebook account in the same way that I should be able to use YouTube without having a Google+ account.
[Off-topic] ext109:
The problem is you can't. I don't agree with it either, but I roll with it because I want to use the services. There will be plenty of oculus rift competitors in the future. Imagine Microsoft, Sony or Nintendo entering this market!

But anyway.. Not using their products at all won't solve anything. The companies can't care less about a few less users and you are there not using things you'd otherwise happily use. In the end you're just a victim of your own actions

Sony is making a VR headset, it's called 'Morpheus'. And from what I've seen, its got got better specs than the Rift, and is less bulky.

However, it's probably going to be a PS4 exclusive, so I won't be getting it.

It's also not unlikely that Nintendo will try, they did try in the past (VirtualBoy).

And if Sony is doing it, Microsoft is probably considering it, they always try to one-up each other in the gaming market.

I just hope that they also make them available for use with PCs, not just their own consoles.

I'm too poor to get any of them. I'm on a smaller carrier that has some decent non-Samsung phones - and the S4 and Note 3, but I'll never get those so they're just kinda there - but none of the newer ones. Well, except the Nexus 5. So that means that I'd have to buy outright (which honestly I should have been doing all along, but at least my carrier pays off the remaining balance on your tab after two years). I just can't afford a $300-600 phone right now.

I think I'll wait until the first Ubuntu Phones come to market. Then I can compare all the available options, and go from there.
