Comment on Getting PSVR2 working on PC isn't as easy as it should be

TLDR; the reviewer is upset because the PSVR2-PC adapter doesn’t come with a Display Port cable, and his Bluetooth adapter is not compatible. So he can’t review the unit on time until he receive both items. 🤷
And that’s perfectly valid…if Sony is selling something to make their device work on oc, include the things to make it work or don’t claim it’ll make it work without needing a bunch of other crap.
The average person won’t do prior digging to find out how the company is lying to them, they just trust…sadly.
At the same time, unfortunately it is pretty standard among electronics in general. Photography, synthesizers, music equipment in general, PC parts… When you buy a pc case, you expect the bare minimum to include screws, but they don’t always include things like SATA cables.
However for VR, a simple adapter should definitely be included. I just can see why it wasn’t given the history of electronics.

Wait. Is it not normal to have a box full of extra cables and adapters just laying around?

Hello, fellow IT person. One day we will need the VGA cables we have saved.

I had to drop everything and move halfway across the country on somewhat short notice (long story) and could only take what fit in my car. One of those things was my random cables/adapters box and it came in handy almost immediately. No one will ever convince me to throw that shit away.
