Valve spokesperson told Road to VR that they’re not promising to support stereoscopic 3D for flat games but they are looking into it.
The company further said it’s considering a system-level implementation that could display any stereoscopic 3D content, whether it’s stereoscopically rendered games, videos, or photos. Should the stereoscopic 3D feature be built, Valve told me it would “be our goal” to be able to display such content when streamed from a PC or rendered directly on the headset itself.



VR is also flat…
Have you not experienced stereoscopic 3D before? Every VR game I’ve played is using stereoscopic 3D, which is why we differentiate regular games as being “flat”.
I’m well aware. My reply was meant to be a joke, because VR is displayed on flat displays (ok maybe curved a bit).
Maybe use a tone-tag next time. These kinds of jokes can be hard to identify in text form.
You have a point. I also fell sometimes for jokes, because I think they were meant seriously. BTelling people its a joke is kind of not funny. But I get your point and will try to make sure its clear next time.
FWIW, I didn’t get it at first but found it funny after reading the comment where you explained it.
