FPSVR at least serves an everyday purpose and is probably worth the two coins to keep it maintained. OVR costs over twice as much and doesn't really serve a purpose for me. I think I only ever used it as a shortcut to audio devices, which can be done through the OS or SteamVR without OVR.

It is so useful that I drop to my knees each time to thank God for such a thing.

Don't waist your time buying this, what used to be, FREE, product. You can literally download the release for free right off the GITHUB page, where the code and product and code itself is and freely openly viewable................and apparently uses python scripts lol. Just search OVR download and find the Github link. Click releases on the right and download the installer.

Seems a bit harsh. If someone wants to support him by buying it from steam, and have the convenience of having it in their library, then they should definitely do that.

It's honorable that he is still providing it for free on Github, it being paid on steam is like a convenience fee, and it is completely understandable he would want to have support for his work.

$7.99 does seems a bit steep though, if I needed it I would buy it on steam for $4 maybe, but chained together is $5 and is a whole-ass game. 🤣

Couldn't have made a paid upgrade instead of suddenly switching the business model? If the Lychee slicer software suddenly went paid-only then people would find something else. Seems like you're lucky with a monopoly

There are currently no plans to change how we develop, Essentially Steam is just another distribution outlet.

Talk about money hungry like EA. Have you forgotten that you have three donation types in the OVR's DLC section, or you made it paid because people aren't purchasing them due to a fact that it does nothing as stated in the description of those DLCs? Also, the post you made 5 years ago, the one above saying that "It will be free", sounds hypocritical now.

If I get banned on this discussion page over the fact that I'm complaining about OVR becoming paid now, so be it then. I already know that I'm being way too immature, so go ahead and do your thing. All I can say is, you can't just make a tool locked behind paywall when you have at least 3 donation buttons in its DLC section! That's just me though, because I'm not one of those "simps" who gives money to strangers, only to receive nothing in return. That's called scamming. Spending money on food to survive is more important than paying strangers for doing absolutely nothing.

Looking at your announcement made a year ago and seeing the second part of it after you swapped the price.
What's Going to Change?
Ultimately this change is designed to help alleviate several issues, including better support through more documentation/tutorials, possibly translations for some other languages, and more time just spent fixing issues that crop up.

As far as I know, this VR tool is working perfectly fine the way it is, so it doesn't necessarily need more changes, and changing the price does "ultimately" nothing. Your recent announcement was made on May 30, 2024, and recent patch update was made on March 29, 2024. How is making a VR tool locked behind paywall gonna include better support through more documentation/tutorials and give your more time when it can be done without swapping the price? Either way, I'm done complaining, and don't bother replying because there are better things to do than reading comments that are humiliating, as if being banned from this discussion page isn't already humiliating enough. I don't even care anymore, just do it if it makes you happy!

I got OVR way before the price was swapped and I have the legal right to pirate it if you end up deleting your post containing the free download of that VR tool on GitHub eventually. If buying isn't owning, then pirating isn't stealing. :steamsalty::steamthumbsdown:
