After just having spent an hour in the game and deciding to call it there, I can fully agree. This is some of the best VR I’ve played. And I make VR games for a living! The decision to not use artificial locomotion is a bit of a let down, but an understandable one (I did like the little jab at it in game) since it’s

What on earth are you even buying??? I rarely buy anything other than weapons

I can’t believe that, with the technology that’s out today (I’m talking Vive and Rift, not the other ones), people still think VR is going to be a gimmick...

Funny you mention that. I haven’t played any flight/space/racing/driving games in VR. It works much, much better for other games.

Have you watched a Dota 2 match in VR? It’s pretty damn cool. I could see it being even better for FPS tournaments..

No.

Could have killed the guy. Attempted murder or at the very least manslaughter. Jail time.

The issue isn’t VR. The issue is these developers that clearly haven’t got a f**king clue how to make a good VR experience. I watched footage of people playing the new Resident Evil in VR and saw a lot of things they are doing extremely wrong.. Sigh.

Sounds like you had a fundamental issue with SteamVR. It shouldn’t do that, ever. You should have sought help before returning it!

Or!.. Or.. you could avoid the problem altogether and play GOOD VR..? If a VR game consistently makes you sick, it’s badly designed. There are easy ways to get around this for the developer of the game. “VR legs” is a myth, if the game is badly designed it’ll never get easier for you to play.

100% agree with you on this one

Without the rose tinted nostalgia glasses of Zelda, it looks extraordinarily mediocre to me. I can’t see the hype and I definitely won’t bother touching it (doesn’t help that I don’t want a Switch in the slightest).

Epic is great at designing interesting heroes! All of the others looks awesome.. (Not this one though)

I was a huge, huge fan of the character design that Paragon has been putting out. I don’t play the game these days but I’ve been keeping track of the new heroes they’ve been putting out and they’ve consistently looked pretty cool.

Do you know what refugees are?

At what point will we have too many satellites up there?

Hillary got more votes. That’s how the “popular vote” works.

The problem is you’re on a rift without any form of roomscale.

As an owner of a Rift without the controllers, to put it simply - you have half of a VR system. The motion controls and use of them are what stops you from being sick. Poorly implemented artificial locomotion is the leading cause of VR Sickness.. But you’d know all about that wouldn’t you.
