In my opinion, it's about both the databases and the hardware. Specifically if/when always-on cameras become socially acceptable to wear in public, then facial databases can be utilised.
Presently, I don't think it's socially acceptable to always be pointing a phone's camera at someone.
Someone asked what the fov was. Even if the product is vaporware, the specs are still valid for the prototype.
I even mentioned that MRTV can get excited so that people temper their expectations. And I didn't try to refute anyone else's claims.
I think you're being unnecessarily guarded.
Regardless of the specs, I don't think anyone should be slapping money down for pre-order.

Sebastian from MRTV does get excited about new products but he mentions a few comparisons and opinions.
I don't mean to hype but he says:
- Higher fov than Apple vision pro and similar fov to Pico 4 and ultra. Estimates around 100ish horizontally and 100 vertically
- Very comfortable, super light
- Very good picture. Sharpest picture he's seen in VR, period. Sharper than AVP, XR4.
- Better binocular overlap than AVP and Bigscreen Beyond
- Super clear pancake lenses. Don't see any glare but not enough contrast in the scene to test it
- He asked if it could go brighter but the guy said they haven't added that yet. Not as bright as AVP. Some brightness lost at very edges.
He says he's doing a more in depth test "tomorrow" but that video isn't up yet on YouTube afaik. I think he'll reply on discord/patreon if you ask him questions.
As well as Xbox and Switch according to the trailer
You could play Ghost Recon: Wildlands or try some of the older Ghost Recon or Delta force games. Some of the weapons on offer are older in it.
There's a tag on Steam named coop campaign that might help find a few for you. I saw a real time tactics game called War Mongrels that might be of interest though it's obviously not a shooter.
Also, obviously there's "hell let loose" but it's not a campaign experience
I've only finished the demo but this is quite a beautiful and charming puzzle adventure and it's worth checking out if that's your thing.
It's also available with a Netflix subscription on mobile and the controls are pretty decent for mobile/touchscreen due to the way movement works in the game.
If you're unsure about it and don't have Netflix, then check out the demo on steam (I'm assuming it's still available).
I would say that I enjoyed controlling it slightly more with a controller/dpad.
I recently discovered shadow tactics which has similar mechanics but with a samurai theme. Quite a cool game.
There is also the more recently released shadow gambit which has a pirate theme.
This is some impressive knowledge. How do you know all this?
I would love to see their take on Fallout
2 quite different puzzler games:
This one caught my eye because of the art (same artist as Braid) but the everything about this game is charming
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2596420/Arranger_A_RolePuzzling_Adventure/
Arranger: A Role-Puzzling Adventure follows the story of Jemma, a small-town misfit on a journey of self-discovery. Venturing out beyond her stiflingly cozy confines, she finds an inspiring world - but also one ruled by fear, and a strange, immovable ‘static’ force. Can she disrupt a culture of stagnation, and find a place to fit into it?
This one I played because it's by Game Maker's Toolkit from YouTube so was keen to see what he'd built. Also enjoyed this one and it has a cute and polished presentation style.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2685900/Mind_Over_Magnet/
Mind Over Magnet: Escape a dangerous factory using the power of magnetism. You must team up with three different magnet friends and use their unique abilities to solve more than 60 tricky single-screen puzzles.
Ah but I was saying that even this game predates helldivers 2. It's been in early access for quite some time
I must confess that I haven't read the book but I had heard the tone is not quite the same
Not sure if sarcasm/trolling. Forgive me for saying so if it isn't. This game has been available in early access long before helldivers 2. Starship troopers the movie has much the same tone as this trailer.
I've wishlisted for now. Gotta get through Dave the diver and hades 2 first. Life is so hard sometimes haha
Animal Well looks cool too
Oh cool! I hadn't seen Eternal Starlight before. Another one for the wishlist!

I also didn't realise Homeworld vr was coming to stream too.

If you're interested in this style of game on pcvr, you could check out battlegroup vr
I'm not sure exactly how similar they are but they both have you commanding your own fleet. I haven't played either so this isn't an endorsement but they both look cool. Battlegroup seems to have a really cool perspective from the command ship too
