2. what vr did you use?

3. Just played Box VR I like the concept of working out in VR lifiting a bar running is just boring with VR we can kill bad guys in super hot and beat people up 😀

4. I play Creed for at least an hour a week when I get the chance and you can really feel your heart racing and I am legit exhausted after about 10 fights. I usually play the weak irish guy and fight the medium lads who cant knock you out but it takes a lot to know them out too so you really have to work hard at punches. I am drenched after a while. Beat Saber is also amazing for warming up your arms.

5. beat saber is much more of a workout on expert plus just saying, almost definately more intense than boxing

6. yeah it's great and all but my wifes face thing is wet af even if i do normal stuff.. google says a lot of headsets died because of sweat..

7. Just tried BOXVR i definitely worked up a sweat, similar to beatsaber i suppose as you hit flying orbs, and dodge bars. Not sure if beat saber has this but in BOXVR faster punches give more points. (It looked that way at least)

8. IM SO HYPE IM BUYING HTC VIVE THIS MONTH I WORK OUT ALOT AT THE GYM I DON'T REALLY NEED IT FOR WORK OUTS CAUSE I GO RUNNING WITH MY DOG AND WALKING 4 WALKS A DAY WITH MY DOG AND GYM FROM MONDAY TO FRIDAY I JUST WANA EXPERIENCE VR KNOWING IS 480 FOR HTC I CANE I SAY I COULD OFFERED IT NOW

9. This guy is so dramatic lol

10. I started playing Beat Saber… Oh, a couple months ago? It's basically the only VR game we have. I can see a noticeable difference in arm strength since I started playing. I've progressed from Hard, to Expert, and now I'm getting A's (I even get S's on Be There For You) on Expert+ levels. I would like you to keep in mind that the harder levels, which you would get to if you had spent more time with it, burn many more calories than the easier ones. Also, as you play more Beat Saber, you learn to hit the blocks in the right way- with lots of wrist and arm movement, doing as full of a swing as possible for each note. Most "newbies" I've seen hit the blocks much softer, and I have no idea why.
    (as long as I'm commenting, I may as well add that I really like your videos. They give me interesting things to think about whenever I watch them. Thank you:)

11. its the vr vSauce

12. ppl still have to stand up

13. The only thing that still scares me about vr is the blue light, can you make an objective video about that topic?

14. Sadly beatsaber always reks my ankles

15. Imagine having a VR horror game and you use a treadmill to run around. That’s what I thought of when talking about VR fitness

16. 5:51 did I just see a discord light theme????????????

17. I heard they developed a gaming thingy that has lasers underneath it so it can detect your movements and will put that onto the character on the videogame. For example if you were playing a UFC video game you could literally punch the air and the video game character would punch. Unfortunately they cancelled it in the 90’s.

18. My experiences with VR are extremely limited, yet everything I've seen from this channel captivated me and made me contemplate how we interact with technology. You've opened my eyes to the true potential this holds. For that, thank you.

19. "Skyrim 6"

    Even though the series is called Elder Scrolls I'm pretty sure we'll have a 6th version of Skyrim be out before TES VI.

20. MY GOD I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS MAN! PLEASE NEVER STOPPPPPPP

21. Interesting… Usually people talk about skyrim 2 but you said 6, you messed up here.
    I love your videos, they're so well edited and so interesting.

22. 1:09 they might need to update it, because of mods :/

23. How do you guys think weight lifting could be achieved in VR? As in a way to gain muscle because I can foresee a way in which cardio can be made easier but I don't see any way you could gain muscle by using increasingly heavy weights in VR. What are your guys thoughts on this?

24. BeatSaber can be much more of a workout if you play custom songs. Many songs requires fast (almost too fast) movements and in order to hit blovks in time you need to exert more force to move your arm. This repetitive motion can build be a much harder workout than many other exercise VR games. That is why I recommend many VR players to try BeatSaber. Since thr maps are all custom made and new each time then the gameplay will never get old and too repetitive. The game is like Osu! as that you will try to clear harder and harder maps as you get better at the game.

25. Did he say skyrim 6?

26. Vr is going to get us to move around until we can do everything with our mind. When that happens (and it well) people are going to a suit and a nutritional fluids injected into us or something to keep us alive…
