Well frick, turns out I have inferior genes. Got this for Christmas, played RE4 for like an hour and almost threw up. At I don't get motion sick from regular FPS games like japs do.

for me it's ms flight sim in tiny planes
I know it's vr, but my stomach still insists on countering the g forces. I don't get sick, but it feels a bit funny when my body prepares for something that will never come.
>I know it's vr, but my stomach still insists on countering the g forces. I don't get sick, but it feels a bit funny when my body prepares for something that will never come.
this still happens to me every time I jump from the zeppelin towers in world of warcraft, not even VR
Try a game that uses teleport instead of locomotion. Frick the devs that don't include teleport options.
>Frick the devs that don't include teleport options.
RE4 has a teleport option but I chose full motion and also changed the camera movement to be smooth instead of snapping. probably not helping the motion sickness but I felt like the gameplay would be better that way.
Yeah, that's about as hard as you can make it for yourself.
One thing that helps a lot is you could try just turning your body in real life instead of using the stick, it's more immersive too if you don't have to play seated.
You'll have to deal with teleport till you get more used to VR though, the good thing is that it probably shouldn't take too long.
>if you don't have to play seated
I played seated this time but def gonna stand from now on, knifing ganados and grabbing certain stuff and using the typewriter is annoying when seated
Seated is always an option, but standing tends to feel more immersive.
I still play a lot of things seated just because it's easier if you're feeling lazy or want to relax.
I don't know if it's still a pack in title for the Quest but Vader Immortal's teleportation was a good stepping stone. Teleportation in RE4 sounds like it would ruin the experience.
vader immortal is neat but I don't like how you get restricted to a spot
tales from galaxy's edge is much more natural has both full movement and teleportation
it should be standard to have both
>RE4 has a teleport option but I chose full motion and also changed the camera movement to be smooth instead of snapping. probably not helping the motion sickness but I felt like the gameplay would be better that way.
That's not inferior genes then that just sounds to me like something you went to hard at without getting used to it. Take it easy.
I mean it's RE4 and I was excited. I've played this game tons of times I love it I didn't want to compromise.
>I mean it's RE4 and I was excited. I've played this game tons of times I love it I didn't want to compromise.
That's alright I just meant don't count yourself out of playing it when you overdid it first night, if it keeps happening then you'll know.
did you enjoy your first hour?
really becomes a fresh experience in vr
I was impressed how they handled the QTEs
the menus are a bit clunky, but it's ok
if only there's a way to somehow replace the textures with the re4hd mod ones
You chose ultra hard mod on your first day, I'm surprised you didn't die on the spot. Give it a rest and try again when your head clears. After a couple sessions you should adapt to it.
I've been using vr for years (not literal years of playtime) and I still can't do smooth camera. However I think everyone can get used to locomotion, it just takes a little time. Also frick that other guy for suggesting vr games NEED teleporting, that training wheels shit is holding back vr gameplay especially when the tech has been around for a while now.
Yeah, I've been playing for years and only started using smooth turning for most things this year.
This, love me snap turn. I'll happily backflip in Sairento, get thrown around in Boneworks etc, but smooth turning still feels weird.
>smooth camera
>snap turn
What's the point if you can turn in real-life? Isn't immersion the main selling point of VR?
Well, that's exactly what I usually do unless I'm sitting.
But I don't always play VR standing.
wires
>What's the point if you can turn in real-life?
it's a must if you sit down, also more convenient
>and also changed the camera movement to be smooth instead of snapping.
This is your problem. You have good genes if you made it an hour with smooth turning your first time with VR. Turning has always felt weird to me since it just feels completely unnatural compared to actually turning your head. I think it is something about how it is too smooth, clear, and doesn't let you lead with your eyes. However, I've also never really attempted to get over it since physical turning makes games feel a lot better and I generally don't bother with any in game turning.
You will probably be good to go within a few sessions if you switch back to snap turning, but you should still take it a little slow if you do ever feel off. Never go to the point of getting sick and wanting to throw up since that will train your brain to associate VR with being sick and the anticipation will make you more likely to get sick. If you start to feel bad or unreasonably hot, just take a break and go back to it later. That should be better for building tolerance and it probably won't take long before you have no limit.
dumb dumb, you have everything set at the worst possible settings for a new user, you need to get your vr legs, even after having mine for a month or so using smooth turning still felt like my eyes are attached to my head via slinkeys, try it again, use joystick locomotion and snap turning if you want to go in hard
There's really no benefit to smooth turning. Just turn with your body and use snap turning to spin quickly if you need to or to reorient yourself.
Get used to full motion first, and then use smooth camera movement once you're used to it. Do it for an hour or so at a time and stop when you feel sick. You can't "push through" motion sickness, but you absolutely can condition your brain to associate VR with nausea, and that's really hard to undo. Take it easy at first.
I played RE4 with teleport, and it was awesome. Don't quit, just wait till your mind settles and have another go
you will get used to it after a week or so. Some people call it "VR legs". Try playing some less active games or take some non drowsy Dramamine.
>Try playing some less active games
like what?
All I got so far is RE4 and the only other games I can think of getting are Beat Saber and Eleven Table Tennis which seem pretty active (though you're standing in one place in those games which might be better)
Beatsaber would be a good choice for you, not that anon but I'd also suggest trying out superhot vr while you're getting your VR legs.
Superhot is a good choice, but it should be pirated for obvious reasons. Frick those devs.
True, though I doubt he knows how to if he just got a quest.
>pirated
oh yeah another question can I sideload shit on this thing easily or should I just set up pcvr
my computer's not in the same room as my vr space and also it's on ethernet not wifi so idk if it could even connect, it all seems like it'd be complicated to set up
obviously if i'm gonna get beat saber though it's gonna need modded songs, is that possible on the native quest version or is it gonna have to be pc
Sideloading is piss easy unless Cuckerberg messed things up with the Quest 3. There's lots of tutorials on how to get set up with Sidequest. Will give you access to some neat ports like Jedi Outcast and Quake, too.
>unless Cuckerberg messed things up with the Quest 3
I got a Quest 2 anyway
Oh, I'm a moron who didn't look at the OP image. Yeah, you'll be fine.
I have a 2 and 3 and side loading is the same on both
My PC isn't in the same room either, but your router should be.
It's best to have your PC connected to your router via Ethernet and connect to the WiFi on your headset.
I'm not the best one to give advice on pirating, but I hear it's fairly easy actually.
>It's best to have your PC connected to your router via Ethernet and connect to the WiFi on your headset.
oh ok there should be no problems then
Will there be fricked up input lag for Beat Saber or is it fine? It's a rhythm game so that'd be a problem
Yeah, I'd suggest standalone beatsaber.
It's probably the only game I notice any significant lag in when connected to PC.
>Yeah, I'd suggest standalone beatsaber.
Is it possible to add modded songs on the Quest version? If not on the current version maybe if I pirate an old version?
There was some app that helps you do it.
It's been a while since I've used it since mods break every single tiny update they do, but it's fun to play custom songs.
Best to watch a video on that ... the process isn't extremely tough but more than most can remember who haven't done it in awhile... like me
Also maybe try a wave shooter game where you don't move. Like fruity shooty or something
PCVR is obviously better and once you get a taste for it you wouldn't be able to go to native resolutions and framerate. So it might be a good idea to take it easy and stick to native shit for now.
Use rookie sideloader to pirate, you can put custom songs in native Beat Saber, although personally I find it to be a hassle and would rather deal with the PC version.
Also, get quest game optimizer (there's a cracked version if you don't wish to pay for it), it improves some of the older releases (like RE4) immensely.
I found I went from your perspective towards wanting to use standalone more and more often.
Almost nothing on PCVR was wowing me with graphics (other than the obvious) and I prefer the simplicity and slightly lower lag of standalone when I can play a game that way, I still play a mix of both but when I can I'll tend to favor standalone.
I was one of those people who thought they'd only use the thing as a PCVR headset too.
I just can't stand the native res and framerate anymore.
I've noticed people can have really varied preferences for VR, assuming most people are being honest about theirs.
I'm sure that's how it is for you, I just found I ended up being the opposite.
>I've noticed people can have really varied preferences
wow, what an insight
>quest game optimizer
what does this actually do?
allows to increase resolution/framerate and tweak some things to get better performance (not that relevant anymore since if your Quest firmware is up to date it should always run at its limit)
>not that relevant anymore since if your Quest firmware is up to date it should always run at its limit
It's useful if you have a Quest 3 since a lot of older titles like Iron Man VR aren't gonna get Q3 updates
I meant that the performance tweaks are not that relevant, the ability to increase resolution is even more useful on Quest 3 since you can go even higher.
Download VR Animation Player and just check out everyone's stuff on there. You eye to mind just probably needs strenghening.
>like what?
games where you don't move around
moss is perfect for VR beginners while also having some unique VR gameplay, especially the sequel
Games where you move around spinning the analog are the motion sickness gut punches.
Some games allow you to move around by walking around your room or teleporting and that's 100% comfortable (Budget Cuts, Until You Fall, Half Life Alyx). Some games allow you to move around with motion controls and that's usually better to varying degrees (Stride, Lone Echo, To the Top)
Depends on the game. Personally I believe analog movement in VR kinda just sucks but many people disagree with me here.
Small steps, the dizzyness will get less and less
Next time get some ginger, it helps against that
Seconding what anon says, ginger really helped me.
Take baby steps.
Meanwhile, I recommend getting Dungeons of Eternity is a great d&d type game to play with other people online- it's in the sale atm
Some gameplay I recorded to show my pal:
>>VR Training powerlist
>Beginner tier
Beat saber, superhot, pistol whip; simple colors with no movement of self.
>Moderate tier
>Blade and sorcery, half-life alyx, breachers; simple movement through a 3d space with many things moving at once.
>Advanced tier
Stride, zenith, altair breaker; very fast, inhuman 3d movement
>Finish line
Vader immortal, sairento, hellsweeper; complex acrobatics, somersaults
If you progress through this list in sequence you will develop your VR legs at a comfortable pace.
He means roomscale but that is hardly a thing anymore.
You can get over it, just make sure to respect motion sickness every time you get it and your body will learn fast.
For me it took less than a week.
over time your body will adjust. on my first vr gear i only lasted 10 minutes, half a year later i could do as long as i wanted to.
The first day I tried VR I felt like I was going to barf after 5 minutes of Rec Room. I pressed on and now I can do continuous backflips in Hellsweeper no problem.
You'll be fine, enjoy the headset OP.
try walking in place while moving for a bit it should help you get used to it
Wtf is Meta?
Most Efficient Tactical Assfricking
cuckbook
just play mixed reality games instead of VR
>quest 2
send it back, get a quest 3.
There aren't any good ones yet.
The only one that even looks remotely good is that drop dead cabin one.
Feel free to prove me wrong, what would you suggest?
espire 2 MR, the cabin, pianovision, spatial ops
Espire's MR is a complete gimmick, I tried it a few times.
okay, you won. why am I even shilling
lego bricktales, pianovision
How is bricktales anyways?
I tried 10mins and enjoyed it, to get pass things, you have to build with lego pieces, will play again when I have more time
Same happened to me with the PS VR. My girlfriend bought it for me as a gift and she was so enthusiastic, but no matter what I tried, ginger, chewing gum, being far away from the tv, etc... I always felt terribly sick after 30-40 minutes of playing
Did you ever try actual motion sickness medication?
I imagine psvr2 can be a bit worse for motion sickness because so many games rely on reprojection to meet frame rate targets, it's unfortunate that you've had that much of an issue.
they do a weird thing with the refresh rate and it makes people ill
sony almost had a good headset
>resistant to the simulation
>inferior genes
Take mints before playing.
You are not used to it yet. Let a fan blow air on you while you play. It'll fix it.
Got my 60yo non-gamer uncle to try Arizona sunshine 2 with teleport locomotion and he didn't get sick at all. Struggled more with finding the buttons on the controllers than anything. He was really impressed with vr overall and how intuitive controls are.
As for motion sickness, personally it made me queasy the first time and after 10hrs of hl2vr I was cured.
Anyone ordered Q3 through the meta store and got it faster than the estimated date?
Looks like they already processed my payment.
I've got 200 gigs of porn waiting bros...
I bought a Q3 and they sent me two.
What did you do with the other one?
Gave it to nephew on christmas
>200GB od VR porn
That's like, 10 to 15 videos, if you got them at the appropriate quality.
its normal - most people cant handle vr movement for more than ~30 min because you have a conflict of senses between what you see and what you feel, and this is why it never took off and never will
try playing more static shit and it should feel better
Yeah, except most people quickly get over this when using VR more than once.
MOST people dont, hence the need for immersion breaking crutches like teleporting and limiting your playtime
Why do you feel the need to spread misinformation?
what game? is it porn?
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1032670/FOCUS_on_YOU/
I dunno if there's an R18 patch or anything like that, or if it's just dating & cute photography.
>this is why it never took off and never will
the main reason was always cost and software library
also some people get motion sickness from 3d flat games, did that stop games?
I just dont uderstand why there are no good MR games yet. It's super easy to create your own MR game in Unreal Engine 5/4. All you gotta do is create an oculus dev account and organization, download unreal engine (alternatively build from source, oculus branch), install android studio and setup correct NDK in UE project settings, download the MetaXR plugin, watch 5 GDXR youtube videos that explain how to add passthrough and use roomscandata (super easy), and that's it. you can also use his VR template with comes with many functions already, basically all you'd ever need for an FPS. I guess it's just the Meta store wienerblocking everyone with all the regulations and best practices that need to be met in order to get the game approved
>I just dont uderstand why there are no good MR games yet
do you know how long it takes to make a game?
the Quest 3 has only been out for like 2 months, all the current MR games had a one year headstart being semi developed with the quest pro, and thats only if the dev was willing to spend over a thousand dollars for one
>It's super easy to create your own MR game in Unreal Engine 5/4
make one and publish it, lets see how long it takes you
>I just dont uderstand why there are no good MR games yet
There's several now (Vermillion, PianoVision, Lego Bricktales, Synth Riders, Demeo, Cubism, Puzzling Places, Drop Dead: The Cabin, Little Cities, Broken Edge)
I have a PC with i7 9700k and RTX 2070 Super, is it good enough for VR?
What would be the best looking game I can play?
I have a 2070 Super and am i7 from a few years ago and do just fine, granted I want an upgrade but it's certainly good enough to use VR.
>what is the best looking game
Alyx, or perhaps a modded flat game if you crank visuals (you can't)
These are my exact specs and it's fine. Sometimes I get some fps drops in Blade and Sorcery but that's mainly because I have a gorillion mods installed.
Takes a bit to get used to it.
I played all of Alyx with teleportation, and now i can play locomotion fine, unless it's some moronic platforming like Blade and Sorcery's tutorial with climbing and jumping and shit.
Set the move direction to head based and turn on the fov vignette and you'll be fine.
RE4 VR is one of the more motion sickness inducing VR games I played. Half Life Alyx is unironically more comfortable. This is the problem with VR ports vs games made for VR.
Try blowing a fan on your legs at an angle. If you're standing, do it barefoot with bath mat on the floor that you can feel.
These are tricks that tell your brain you're not actually moving.
Just got done playing HL2 episode 1. God, I need to get sleep. Game is super hard to stop playing. It was made for VR!
This
You're getting motion sickness because your brain thinks it's moving when it isn't. You could also use a fan in your face to simulate the air pressure in your ear when you move. Regardless, you'll get used to it.
Play it a few more days and it goes away.
Just get a fan, homosexuals. Do you even VR?
I wonder how much erp you've seen with that many hours in VRC, if you say none I won't believe you.
>seen
You mean have had.
Actually not that much. Headset keeps breaking and it's fricking annoying. But VR titfricking with lovense is amazing.
That's what I meant, surprised it's not much. What else do you do in VRC?
So far the main thing I've enjoyed is watching anime or movies with friends, occasionally looking at vket or checking out worlds.
Used to be part of a big group that would often host events. Gaming nights, world hopping, movie nights or just hanging out. A lot of it was spent watching anime and movies with friends, shame that's not doable anymore.
Huge fan of Vket and similar events. I go to them all so that's at least a hundred hours more.
Personally I always liked checking out random worlds and exploring too.
Sounds like the same things I do but just with more people and 10x the playtime.
Fair enough.
It's funny to think people already missed out on the golden age of VRChat. All the contrarianism only led to people missing out on the best thing that happened online since the early 2000s.
Movie worlds being kill, devs reserving the right to monitor your ERP sessions. The sanitisation for corpos is beginning. I wouldn't be surprised if toxmod was introduced in a year or two.
I would have recommended the HP Reverb G2 V2 (on sale for $200-$300) as the best bang for the buck you could get, but Microsoft is deprecating WMR so it's likely gonna be bricked in a year or two, if there aren't any workarounds.
Really pisses me off because the G2 has good visuals and the same audio as the Valve Index, which is best in class and I don't want to downgrade to a Quest 3 or pay out the ass for an Index or Deckard.
Take some ginger tablets when you're about to use it to get use to it, the ginger will help you keep your lunch down. You'll be good in about a week or so.
You'll get used to it, I was the same when I first got my Rift years ago.
I always get erections when I play VR, what does that mean for me?
and not from playing porn games, stuff like Superhot or Blade & Sorcery
I'm the total opposite. I bought a Quest 2 this time last year and it had zero effect on me. It was to the point where I didn't even feel emersed at all. I felt like I had a monitor on my face, and I felt fricking ridiculous. VR does nothing for me. I ended up selling the Quest less than 3 months later.
motion sickess is your body noticing a discrepancy from your vision and your inner ear. Thinks your are poisoned and reaction is to vomit. it's a defense mechanism, opposite of inferior genes.
People that don't get motion sickess would be MUCH more likely to die in a natural setting.
ive always wondered how well sailors handle vr, since they're fine with sea sickness
Don't be discouraged anon!
1. Not all games have motion, most BIG vr games offer teleport moving, which helps drastically with motion sickness. I think RE4 does too.
2. If you cannot handle games, you can still use it as an AMAZING video player. Once you play videos in VR, watching them in a normal monitor just feels inferior.
I feel like the people who get motion sick in VR probably can't visualize the full apple
>an hour
you did too much
should stick to 10-15min sessions for a week
you will eventually get used to it and do hours of vr with no issue unless the game does something stupid like rotate the camera slowly which makes your brain think you are drunk
I'm thinking of buying a Quest 3 but need to know if there are gun games realistic enough to warrant it.
so post a webm or link to a video to convince me.
do your job shills
Pavlov VR
Basically counterstrike but in VR, nice graphics too. Also has stuff like scopes and canted sights
What do you mean by realistic enough, and what would warrant it for you?
The gun game I like most in VR isn't realistic at all.
>too stupid to look up "realistic vr gun game" in google
Nah you are too dumb for VR.
onward is pretty neat, the devs are doing a sequel and it'll target quest 3
crisis vrgade2 is lots of fun
?t=16
Contractors VR
It has the realism along with a lot of conversion mods.
You can play TF2, CoD, Nazi Zombies, Halo, CS, etc.
pavlov vs onward vs contractors
and there's also gun club and hotdogs handgrenades which are even more realistic, but they aren't multiplayer shooters
this looks pretty neat
in a few years we'll see a proper COD or battlefield designed for VR
there is pavlov as mentioned above by other anons but it looks like a ps2 game.
VR needs real development and bad hardware is holding it back (i am talking about the quest 2 since I looked into dev for it and you have to limit textures below ps3 tier for it to run period)
vr sickness is not motion sickness, you're not moving, only in your mind like lammy, its the reverse of motion sickness thats why its specifically called VR sickness.
and everyone gets it, trust me flight sims including spinning at 5000rpm in a space ship do nothing to me but vr does (takes longer than most but still does, mostly due to the shitty resolution of exactly OP pic rel, if I wasn't fricking squinting at everything so the frensel lense worked right (friends headset btw i'd never buy this shit) i'd be fine)
Do you also turn around with the analog stick? When i played Alyx going back and forth was ok but turning around with the stick made me sick as well.
im not OP for clarity
the snap turning on the camera and some games not having smooth turn is cancer to me, and if the headset wasnt so physically heavy you could just turn irl.
the room itself can interfere with this too unless you're playing in a giant hanger. cant tell you how many times both of us hit the ceiling light while climbing in game, or the couch blocks you from proning, or fricking launch the pad at the tv because grenades and no one uses the dumb strap when you pass the headset and controls between multiple people.
Is there a good VR community anywhere here on Ganker?
I only know there some on /aco/, but they are worthless coomers that can only think of futa wiener and then /vrg/ on /vg/, which is somehow fricking worse, full of ERP'ing trannies and generally unpleasant people.
>porn board is full of coomers
yes?
there is probably something on /vg/ or /vm/ for vr. /vr/ is ironically vidya retro not VR.
I was just pointing out that I knew of their existence.
And that I am not interested in hanging out with them.
Considering you don't sound very fun to hang out with, no there are none, go hang out in public lobbies like you deserve.
Is there a good... community anywhere here on Ganker?
lol no
There was a short lived attempt to separate /vrg/ into two generals, but it didn't work out. VR Chat players probably construct a good percentage of active VR users. Not a lot of games coming out right now. Notice how dedicated VR games typically can't create generals on /vg/? Yeah...
Is the quest 3 worth upgrading if I already have a quest 2 and only play vr a few times a year?
I really enjoy vr every time I use it.
Do you use it hooked up to a PC? Then no.
Do you use it by itself? Yes.
The lenses are a pretty nice upgrade, but depends on how much the previous ones bother him.
I do both but I have a wifi6 router so I use air link.
>air link
Does it work fine for you?
It was kinda dogshit in my usage, I would recommend trying steam link (just released) or virtual desktop. There is also ALVR but I never used it and might be more complicated to set up properly.
I haven't had any issues with it but my pc and router are in the same 8x10 room. If I try to stream anywhere else in the house, I get major lag problems.
not yet, wait til there's some games that really use quest3's power
walking dead gets a Q3 update in january
the new optics are much better though, and it feels lighter
Only if upgrading let's you give your q2 to somebody else and play with them.
Q3 is good and I like the passthrough but if you just want it for normal gaming, it's only about 20 to 25% better imho.
I gave my q2 to my wife so we can play coop together to it's been worth it, but no real killer app yet.
Passthrough is great on games that support it, but I imagine this tech will only get better in time, so I get it if anyone wants to hold out another year or two.
What's the best vr headset?
What's the cheapest that's not complete shit?
not the quest 2
not the quest 2
Play more games.
Download mech world, eleven table tenis, beat saber, superhot, etc. Then after a couple of hours, go back to RE4.
I got slightly woozy the first time I used normal locomotion, then I played a bunch of superhot and that fixed it forever.
I was playing the ultrakill vr mod using steamlink the other day and holy shit that's fun.
I second this.
Superhot is a perfect game for getting used to vr.
This is most likely the most supportive thread in /v right now.. consider yourself lucky no one called you a dumb gay/ Black person etc etc
So take the good comments and encouragement and get back to vr and dont give up. it gets better the more sessions you play.
You get used to it with time, I would get motion sickness after 30 minutes at first but after a while I could play Assetto Corsa for 6-7 hours in VR.
Don't worry about it anon, everybody gets sick before they get their sea legs.
I used to have to lie down after only 20 mins of VR a few years ago, now I can do anything, you just need to train your brain a little, will take a couple of months.
Use teleporting and any other comfort modes offered until then.
you need to spend a lot of time in cars to get immune to getting sick i think thats the same mechanism so it prolly overlaps
I got a shitty quest 1, what can I play with it?
You can probably play beat saber fine-ish in standalone?
I'd look into air link, or rather, steam link, and playing shit from your pc.
vader immortal, moss, tales from galaxy's edge, tetris effect, rez infinite, jurassic world aftermath, lucky's tale, fisherman's tale, i expect you to die
secret of retropolis
Blade & Sorcery bros please help me
Do you guys have the bug where sometimes your weapon "Blips" away but your hand is still gripping it?
Then it "pops" back but it's scaled up or down ever so slightly?
It's been so long since I've last played blade and sorcery.
Is it a full game yet?
Recommending Quest 3 anons get Thrill of the Fight for the AR mode alone.
I took mine on holiday to the mountains and have been using a courtyard as a boxing ring for some early morning cardio, webm related.
(Not pictured: stray catbros who stay to watch me after I feed them)
Really hope this is the future.
I'd love to make a game where i augment IRL comfy forest walks with periodic goblin attacks to fend off.
Isn't it really bad for the lenses/screen to be using the headset out in the sun?
Hope you are at least being cautious of that.
NTA but no. Letting the sun hit the lenses directly is what causes issues. Not a problem when you are wearing the thing.
Well yeah I know that, but if you are using it outside, chances are you might take it off there from time to time.
I heard the same but it's been OK so far I think- I have noticed the tracking is a bit shitty the last 2 days though, gloves fly off- maybe the sunshine fricks with the inside out tracking, maybe I am actually doing long term damage kek
Time will tell
I dunno, if I were a neighbor and saw you boxing with a magical technological visor on your head and not tripping all over the place I'd think we are living in the future already
Kek, I have been spotted by the local old ladies and I'm choosing to believe they are mirin' my cyborg combat skillz
The only thing it does to me is it makes me tighten my butthole if i fall from something lol.
Try google Earth with that globe mode to 3d thing.
It feels like taking off from 3D street view to space in an instant and my knees get weak af
give me VR smut recommendations. Is virtamate a piece of shit to setup like people say
Yes, it is. VR Porn, Illusion games, ERPing in VRC and VAM are your options. And B&S as there's nothing quite like it to excite - although I am surprised there aren't any sex mods for it (or perhaps I'm just unaware).
I want to get a hand to hand fighting game, but there are so many and I have heard good/bad about all of them:
>blade & sorcery
Liked the original but it seems jank and the ai sucks
>swordsman
HEMAgays online all tell me this is great, but it looks primitive and also jank, canned animations
>dark sword
Might be good but more of a dark souls attempt and I really just want an arena fighter

Apparently was really good but a recent update removed a bunch of environments you could readily spawn into, in order to make them levels in a narrative mode?
I'm probably ignorant here, so any help would be appreciated;
Are any of them actually good?
What exactly do you want from a hand to hand fighting game? Also what do you mean about the 'original' in the case of B&S? Nomad is just a Quest port - it hasn't deprecated the original on PC.
If you want to hit things with swords B&S remains the gold standard really. If you want to box Thrill of the Fight is the way to go. If you want to PvP play that Earthbender game instead as it's remarkably deep and the closest you get to a fighting game in VR. Not sure if you want to brawl, perhaps there are some good boneworks mods. Nothing has good AI though.
Really appreciate the effort post brother, thank you!
I'm mostly looking for a swordfighting kind of experience, I have thrill of the fight and its great, but would like something with satisfying physics and weapons.
I will maybe get B&S after all, (by original, i meant I enjoyed it on vive years ago, but i understand in the lead up to nomad they gimped the physics a little and dont know if it recovered from that)
Oh I see what you mean for B&S. Yes, they did change the physics somewhat and try to optimise. At the time of the update it made quite a few things weird but it didn't seem like it was a lot worse. Probably worth returning to, I haven't played it in a while. Unfortunately, I don't know of anything better than it currently.
Boneworks and/or bonelabs also have good physics, but they don't have any meaningful combat/enemies so aren't particularly satisfying.
Yes, quite a lot of people honestly, and standalone game are improving. I've brought my Q2 with me a fair bit when travelling and it runs reasonably well - although it's a significant downgrade compared to PCVR.
I don't have a Quest 3 but suspect the extra rendering power will be enough to get many games up to consistently 90/120Hz, and will gradually drag up fidelity in general. There are good full titles on standalone now. Not only Asgard's Wrath 2, but also things like Into the Radius or Red Matter, Walking Dead S&S etc.
So they're not bad standalone, but PCVR is the best experience.
PCVR chads, we eatin good!
good
now you can do the only thing VR headsets are good for: pornography
It looks extremely stupid but I found that jogging on the spot while moving using the controller helps a lot
Please shill me a PCVR game to buy and play

E:D is a weird one since the in-ship stuff is excellent for VR. But if you enjoy the on-foot mission/combat it'll flip to a floating 2D screen any time you aren't in your ship. And since they didn't optimize the on-foot UI for VR you really need a high-res headset like a Reverb G2 or a Quest 3 to have a passable experience.
However, you don't have to do the on-foot shit and can simply ignore it if you want to.
What kind of game you looking for?
For shooters, this year I bought Crossfire Sierra Squad and Tactical Assault VR. Both are good.
JET ISLAND. Although the dev trooned unfortunately, but it hasn't affected the game. As shit as it looks, it's brilliant.

It's actually the exact opposite. You just have a sensitive inner ear.
The supposed comfort options in VR games to do smooth and snap turning usually make me feel sick. I can move around in the games with an analog stick just fine and opt to handle all turning physically with my body.
You can get over it, just power through it. I was dizzy for a about week before it suddenly went away. Keep playing until you feel like puking and play a little bit more each session. There are things you can do to help like pointing a fan so the breeze can tell you where you're looking or take that nausea medication people take before flying.
It takes some getting used to. Make sure that you have measured your PID (there is an app for it) and that you adjust the Quest's PID setting appropriately. The Quest 2's PID adjustment is kind of jank, but you need to get it as close as possible to avoid eye strain.
For motion sickness, as others have said: Try turning with your body primarily, not the right-stick. There are usually settings to add kind of a black fog around the borders of your vision while turning with the stick, which can help with motion sickness. To some extent you just have to get used to it, kind of like being on a boat on the ocean.
VR legs time. Take ginger. Get used to it. Seek out some mild experiences first. wienerpit sims with violent motion will probably be the worst. You'll be good in a few weeks.
As someone who bruteforced the "vr legs" meme for 2 months straight, not really. Yeah I don't get dizzy or break into cold sweat in VR anymore but I still don't feel comfortable, there's a sense of unease and discomfort that never goes away. If your game is great I'll push through that sense of discomfort and probably enjoy the game but it's enough to stop me from playing your generic blade and sorcery clones which is about the only things we get these days.
Any decent VR mecha games? I tried Strike Suit Zero, but apparently the VR mode was discontinued for lack of support.
iron rebellion
vox machinae is supposedly good
world of mechs was quite interesting, I didn't get any motion sickness, also the controls are quite good
Vox Machinae has good mechanics and plays well but the campaign is a bit meh. Not that there's a lot of good campaigns in VR so
The joy of VM is multiplayer but I assume it's dead? Before /vrg/ was a troony social club they used to do some VM rounds every Monday, which were a good time.
Vox has quest crossplay so I assume there's at least a small public playerbase on weekends.
Even before crossplay it was one of those games where you see no populated lobbies but it gradually fills up with real people if you start one.
>brain recognizing inconsistencies in your senses is... bad!
Is it though
I never get motionsickness. I don't even fear heights. But when I tried on a Quest plugged into my PC to play the Forest, the smooth walking gave me dizziness. Even I was amazed that I would succumb to it
It takes literally a week to get used to it... I used to not be able to move and now I just beat Asgard's Wrath 2 playing 5+ hours at a time and never got sick once. If you're turning with an analog stick turn the sensitivity up high, though. When you turn slow it makes you feel worse since turning takes longer. Teleporting is moronic, don't use it. When you start feeling sick don't keep playing just take a break until its over.
Different for everyone, some people never had it in the first place, for some it never goes away. And I don't know why you're assuming that the changes in your brain are now permanent. That's a pretty profound effect from a few hours of playing a video game. For me if I don't play VR for a while, the sense of unease comes back a bit.
I can't even ride in the backseat of a car, if someone is prone to motion sickness more than me I'm not sure why they bought vr in the first place
Just gotta keep at it, you're conditioning your brain a new perspective. I got over it pretty quick funny enough the first time I played in VR for maybe a 2 hour session I didn't feel any motion sickness but the 2nd day I did in like 20 minutes, then the third day I could handle an hour.
I'll never understand the motion sickness thing. Never had it, even the first time I used a VR set. The only "weird" feeling I get is after I play for a bit, I expect to not feel the things I touch for a few minutes.
It's mostly when the camera moves out of accordance with body, so full scale doesn't trigger it, but moving by joystick input does, people feel like they are gonna fall over and they get motion sick.
I got it bad to begin with but now I can play hours without a hint, just needs training, same as driving and sailing.
Do "people" actually use these headsets without PCVR?
Only the first week. Inferior genes gets sick longer than that. I imagine it's a bugger problem for quest 2 than quest 3
What are some good PCVR shootin games?
haha I can play FPS games for 14 hours straight, no problem. But Gameboy in the backseat of a car as a kid? sick within 5 minutes. VR does the same unless it's high frame rate like PSVR.
Maybe there is an option to move the camera further back? In some VR games, the issue is that the camera is too far forward.
