After numerous posts in 2016 and 2017, developments on the virtual reality Porn front have been slow here at ErosBlog in 2018. I still don’t have a quality high-tech VR headset, although I have finally had the chance to tinker with a few of the worst of the cheap ones that you basically just wrap around your phone. These are now starting to show up at local garage sales for next to nothing. But a real headset, like a Rift or a Vive? I keep thinking someone will send me one to review, but it hasn’t happened yet. Oh well. The day will come!
Meanwhile I remain interested in developments in VR porn, and in the sites that aggregate it for surfers and consumers. So I always welcome the opportunity to look in depth at another VR porn resource site like the one at Ultimate VR Porn. This is a slick-looking portal that combines trailers and teaser clips from all of the currently top-rated Virtual Reality Porn movies, a ranked list of the best VR porn sites complete with the reviews that support that assertion that they are the best, and a detailed series of tech guides explaining how to set up all the leading VR porn devices. (Given that these are somewhat complicated devices, guides explaining how to get them plugged in and loaded with porn seem likely to be useful, especially given the way the #pornocalypse tends to keep porn hard to reach from official content and app stores.)
Any fool can throw together a list of VR porn sites, but I am always more interested in a good ranking that’s justified with reviews and user ratings. This catalog of the best vr porn sites appears to be at least somewhat data-driven:
One more new-to-me thing I noticed at the Ultimate VR Porn site is that the display of VR porn clips and trailers and teasers to people (like me) who are checking things out without a VR headset has been enormously standardized and improved, at least in an up-to-date Chrome browser. In 2016 when I first started looking at VR clips in a standard browser, they would often (but, confusingly, not always) appear as two side-by-side clips like some sort of 1890s stereogram you would hold up to a candle on a wooden stick. Talk about retro!
It’s different — by which I mean better — these days, though. Today they present themselves to our vision on the screen looking at first like a standard video clip, such as you would encounter at any tubesite or clipstore, only with the slight fuzziness that hints of three-dimensionality on a 3D television. But you-the-viewer can interact with the clip using your mouse; you can grab and pan the scene left, right, up, and down (somewhat similar to how you would look with head movements while wearing a headset) and zoom in or out using the scroll wheel. It’s not having a headset, but it does give you a fair way to interrogate the VR porn clip or trailer to see how it was shot and what you would get if you indeed were to buy the whole scene and were viewing it with a proper headset. This is an enormous improvement over the way sample clips worked just a year or two ago!
