[deleted] Quest 3 just got a major downgrade in production. Apparently there will be a reduction in resolution
Are you sure about the downgrade? Reduction compared to what? Last rumour I saw: expected resolution for the Quest 3 is 4,128 by 2,208 pixels or 2,064 by 2,208 pixels per eye. Quest Pro has what, 1800x1920 per eye?
dango789 you’re not wrong if that’s what you enjoy. I just think that a VR performance is more involved than a standard porn scene. If you’ve not really done porn before, it’s going to be challenging enough to be in a standard porn scene without all the additional stuff needed in VR like keeping eye contact with a camera lens rather than the person you’re having sex with, also having to carry the whole scene narratively as the guy is completely silent. I feel someone more experienced in porn, who can do the sex part in their sleep, will be better able to concentrate on, and perform the extra stuff that’s unique to VR.
Some of these new girls they use just can’t carry a scene with enough personality to make it entertaining to me.
I suppose if you like to see a girl who’s a little nervous and shy on camera as that’s more real to you than a “porn performance” with experienced girls deepthroating dicks and talking dirty, then the newbie girls are great. My personal preference is for the more slutty pornstar performance as that’s more entertaining and sexy to me.
Yes.
According to the latest rumor posted by SadlyItsBradly, Quest 3 will feature a display of 4,128 x 2,208, as you say...
HOWEVER, the resolution will be the same if not slightly less than Quest Pro, rather than a 30% increase over Quest Pro, as initially speculated...
Mr. Smelly adds "They seem to be using a single display for Quest 3 these days. "
If this is so, the screen measurements would ignore the loss of pixels from IPD adjustment...
Nevertheless, in one respect there may be improvement: many users of Quest Pro reported a jitter effect caused by the slight rotation of the two panels.
Possibly the design change from two panels back to one panel was to address that problem -- but more likely it was a matter of production costs, given unexpected rates of inflation, and the need for Meta to be price-competitive against Pico 4.
ByteDance, the owners of Pico -- and TikTok -- have been able to take a major financial hit for each headset they sell. The new strategy is partly due to the success to TikTok, against lack of adequate government oversight and regulation. It may also be due to dark money funneled by the Chinese government to encourage a larger user-base for Pico's store and services (for reasons of data-mining of younger users...).

dango789 I for one would much rather see a video with a fresh new pornstar
Check indexxx.com. Many of the models on here have an extensive resume of previous work. In one respect that's good: we know they aren't trafficked victims of a GDP-type scam. In another respect it's not-so-good: the performances can look mechanical.
The bigger concern would be using new models appropriately for the format of SLR. Newer models lack experience with the kinds of performances required for VR (watch the SLR Originals video with Angel Gostosa, for example)... But some newer models are better (e.g., Adrianna Jade).
For SLR to focus on "new" models they would have to consider more casting-like scenarios. And want to do that sort of thing... I gave them a tip off on Myra Glasford, who appeared earlier today on NetVideoGirls. She would have been ideal for a follow-up to the Blake Blossom Fifty Shades as a VR porn debut. No one listened. Now they'd have to pay much more for agent fees, etc.
[deleted] man i gotta disagree about pro's looking mechanical, the real pros look anything but that. I.E. Blake Blossom has been around for a while now and yet she put out one of the craziest performances on Wankzvr when she came back. It's really on direction and chemistry and all that. Or the Xxlayna scene with Apryl, that video is insanely good even though xxlayna had been shooting a ton of porn including a few vr scenes.
I'm super excited to see the site delay further this has been the most worthwhile porn subscription service I've been happy to pay for keep up the good work !
[deleted] Ew. I just don't understand what appeals to you most in this... That there are a whole bunch of naked dudes or that the women are wearing masks...
The furniture. That table looks really classy. And the couch seems to be comfortable. And the white plushy carpet makes me especially horny.
Mutiny
That's why you never do orgies at your own place, dude... 
And that clothes? Just burn them afterwards. 
Mutiny All that white fabric
Now there's a man with actual experience in these things. In my youth I went to a few of those mask parties, with extremely wealthy friends. I never understood the appeal of them, and I always felt sad for the performers. It's not like burlesque, where many of the "dancers" really enjoy what they do and money a secondary goal...
argyle43 are you that “pussy reveal” guy
No, I just appreciate hetrosexual porn, JAV, and effective cinema. In fact I would have never started subbing to SLR had I not previewed a few of their early films that were exceptionally well-made. I recommend Breakfast for Tiffany, Witcher Parody, Dick Runner 2049 ver. 2, Palm Springs Romantique, The Shop, 50 Shades of Blossom... There are no hard and fast rules for good porn (hope that pun is appreciated)... But those guidelines may be helpful for the current production schedule...
bobbytables I.E. Blake Blossom
Great performer, but you must admit that she's in quite a few films...
Melody Marks (51 films)
Blake Blossom (38 films)
Leana Lovings (33 films)
Laney Grey (32 films)
It would be great to see Myra Glasford, or Amber Moore, or Adrianna Jade, or Stella Sedona, -- or even more Ginger Grey, Freya Parker, and so on.

You must be really fun at parties... 
LordCrash You must be really fun at parties...
Have you been to an orgy and did you enjoy yourself with anyone but the women you arrived with?
You know the saying @LordCrash...
There are three types of men who watch porn: the young men, who are inexperienced; the old men, who want to re-live their youth; and the gay men, who've yet to come to terms with their sexual needs...
There's nothing wrong with being gay or bi. But if you like these scenes with lots of young naked dudes in them, and focus on the guys in porn, you should be honest to the group about why you like this stuff.

Dude, this is porn and not real life. Everything is better in porn. Nobody is interested in your personal sex stories and your personal sex life has no impact on other people's fantasies around here. And nobody asked you for any advice either.

Agreed. That's the point I was trying to make. While seasoned pros might be able to put on a more assertive performance, they're already in 30+ other videos which you can rewatch at any time. Chances are that Melody Marks would put on a great performance for her 52nd video, but it would be very similar to her other videos. At some point, there are diminishing returns of releasing another video of the same performer.
On the other hand, being the first to cast Agatha Vega and Eve Sweet in a hardcore video? Now THAT was exciting to watch. Or being one of the only studios to shoot Kitty Cam, Veronica Church or Gaby Ortega? People get pornstars they can't see anywhere else, great incentive for people to subscribe.
In summary, both seasoned pros and keeping a regular stream of new talent have their pros and cons. Since SLRO is scaling up its production, why not do both and keep everyone satisfied?
I agree. They could definitely bring back Adrianna Jade, Stella Sedona, and Myra Glasford (whose scene hasn't appeared yet).
They could also bring back Amber Moore, Leanna Lovings, and Melody Marks. But challenge them with something new, perhaps... love give them some BDSM, etc. Leanna Lovings and Melody Marks have done just about everything in porn, but have only done one BDSM scene each.
in my opinion SLR should focus on these 2 things:
things I dont need:
