It may be the most annoying thing ever, but valve had to enforce it to reduce the risk of being sued by people to stupid to know the floor really is still underneath them.
So enjoy the workaround while you still can.

While this is certainly true, it's not due to a lack of resources, it's just that most people make terrible decisions and squander their opportunities, resigning to be mediocre and dumb when that is the given path of least resistance. And society is built that way, so that it is. It's catered to because it creates a loophole through which atrocities can be committed, and supported through ignorance.

we are not talking about the polar ice caps, no one cares either way if they become part of another ten thousand year ice age or get converted to a tropical summer beach resort.
The blue circle Is called chaperone, and draws a circle around your feet in case you need to know where the floor is.
used to be able to disable it in settings now you have to edit it a little more.

I get you and it's true, some people are just plain stupid but I still find it totally unnecessary that something like this be forced on us with no way to disable it. Make it the default, that's alright, but give me a chance to disable it if I don't want to see it. I'm an Oculus player too and there is no blue circle there, nothing breaking your immersion.

Hopefully there will always be someone coming up with a workaround of some kind but if the time comes when that's not the case that will be the last time I buy any games on Steam, there are other platforms that don't force me to see something I don't want/need to see.

I've noticed that SteamVR Media Player and I Expect You To Die don't show the circle so I'm convinced there's some way to disable it on a per-application basis but I haven't been able to figure it out yet.

Its in the Steam VR settings just unclick to turn off.
I dont have my headset connected, but with headset on, goto settings, turn of chaperone.

Sometimes I like the chaperone, because it reduces any motion sickness, as gives a constant point of reference.

My comments are for a standing only setup in which the blue circle is always shown. There is no option to turn off chaperone in this mode.

Bump cus this blue circle ♥♥♥♥ hurt me more then the furniture so far.
