VR Gaming - Oculus Rift, Playstation VR, HTC Vive

Hitching your success on the minority cross section of "never touched a woman plus large disposable income". >_> Start running ads to the twitch simps.

The hardware will catch up with this unit, but what's the point with utter lack of consumer dev adoption even with the popularized home usage this decade and overall growth since the late 80s.

I'll visit outer space before I get notable vr gaming at this pace.

This could be decent if done well enough. I can't imagine not getting sick while driving though which is like 75% of GTA.

Bleh wanted to do a little vrchatting, but it looks like they've completely abandoned earlier windows.

I gave up and installed win10 to get my rift and farm sim working. I spent maybe 2 or 3 hours in VR about 3 days ago and I'm still feeling ill. I didn't realize it until I got out but eyes were really messed up.

Experienced something new though. Was sitting on a couch with a friend and I could feel body heat. I actually pulled my helm up to see if something was next to me hot, like I had moved by the furnace, but there was nothing. That was super weird.

I got a PS4 VR for RE7. I get around 5 minutes in and I get immediate nausea, I can actually feel my body growing hot and sweaty and moving my head is like being on a spinning roller coaster where I "feel" like it is being pushed backwards, but it really isn't. I don't know if this is something that I can push through or not, but any sort of game that I would like to try in VR, I can't play. Did like Tetris though. Would like to try Alex, but not spending money on something that makes me ill like the PS4. I haven't used it for years.

Have you tried that motion sickness stuff? I looked for it at the pharmacy and grocery and couldn't find it, but I saw Nyanners was using it.

Talked to a friend ingame and apparently it is in by the sleeping pills, called Dramamine.

I did 2 or 3 hours tonight and feel fair. One thing that unexpectedly nearly made me hurl is watching movies on a big screen. Certain scenes would

Big open areas in games seemed to fuck me up the most, why I couldn't play Boneworks. That game was nothing but huge open areas.

For me its turning and looking while moving on a linear path. Its the very bane of VR and the reason movement controls are tailored toward teleport/point movement. You can only look around effectively while stationary.

So a game has to be very clever in the way enemy encounters and presentation is handled and work through the game with this in mind.

Big open spaces dont bother me. I played a lot of Skyrim VR looking into open sky at a dragon trying to shoot a bow.

But everyone is different. The look-movement problem is basically universal though. There really is no way to ",fix" it.

I guess you could just kind of do a psuedo qte type mechanic where the camera is controlled by the game during moments where you need to look while moving, allowing you to momentarily be seperated from that period of nausea inducing content.

You'll get used to it if you keep at it. RE7 was bad on me at first too. Best advice beyond a fan/ginger/dramamine is to stop as soon as you start to feel even a bit queasy and just pick it up another time, but keep at it.
