>mfw finally bought a VR headset after years of falling for Flatcel propaganda
did you throw up
>>722143001No I legitimately think you'd have to be an extremely sheltered individual to feel nauseated from VR, like if you ever went to a theme park as a kid you should be inoculated from it
>>722142956i like playing beatsaber and then jerking off to some japanese hentai vr games
>>722143160play sairento and get back to me
>>722143160I can handle it, but sometimes I get that weird balance problem (like your brain feels like you're going to topple for a second) if playing something with smooth movement for too long.P.S. Play Ghost Town.
>>722143160games with bad framerates are the only thing that does it for me
I’m very short sighted. Does VR even work for “people” like me?
>>722144436https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WaBQvvubQ-ULooks... pretty tame? It's doing the thing where you teleport around instead of moving fluidly which is kind of lame, also it seems like you're in slow motion any time you're moving through the air. I didn't have a problem going full boar and flipping all around the place in the HL2 vehicle missions so I don't think I'll have any nausea problems with this. If you vouch for the the game being good, I'll try it out though
>>722144786You can wear glasses or contacts inside, or get prescription lenses.
>>722144786You can use it with glasses. Just make sure to use protective glass so you don't scratch the display. Or just use contact lenses.
>>722143160>99.9% of the population do not suffer from motion sickness in any form>The absolute grand majority of people who try free locomotion in VR get motion sick for a bitYou aren't special, you aren't cool. Motion Sickness in VR happens because unlike "A roller coaster" your body is expecting movement but isn't going anywhere, so the signals your brain is sending get mixed up.Fuck, even the vast majority of Air Force pilots who use VR for simulations suffer from Motion Sickness the first few times they use it.I don't understand why you faggots lie so boldly on an ANONYMOUS image board.
>>722144834>>722144879I still have never tried contact lenses because they scare me
>>722144935https://www.bbc.com/news/health-40630852Don't fall for the contact lens meme, bro. Hold firm.
>>722145012Forgot to attach pic. My bad.
>>722145053Lol what
>>722144879I just use the spacer that comes packed with the Quest, haven't had any scratches yet after a year of moderate use. I make sure to clean both my glasses and the VR display with a microfiber cloth every time I put them on so there aren't any hard dust particles caught between the two, I imagine that's the primary mechanism by which scratches happen since the two lenses are literally touching. Still, the advantage of having a $300 device is that you don't have to lose that much sleep over maintaining it
>>722142956I bought one with my Christmas bonus, so that if I hated it, at least I didn't waste earned money on it. I bought it to go with my ps5 pro and Gran Turismo 7. I also have a wheel and pedal setup which brings me to >>722143001I didn't throw up but FUUUUCK ME is it a wild sensation as you go over a hill or dive into a bend and your brain tries to figure out who's bullshitting it, the eyes or the inner ear lol. Laguna Seca corkscrew in particular... Even having my hands on the wheel in the same position as the hands on the screen was weirding me out but I loved it.No man's sky was pretty cool, too. Everything seems ten times bigger, but I actually DID find myself suffering after a space battle against pirates when my brain finally told my eyes and inner ear to fuck off lol.
>>722142956>hitman 3 finally got the shitty PCVR mode updated>they somehow botched it for people using quest 3 headsetsfucking IO
>>722145053>person is retarded>that's the contacts' fault
>>722145421>your brain tries to figure out who's bullshitting it, the eyes or the inner earKek, that's the best way of putting it. NMS pushes my shit in royally, I can't play it in VR at all.
>>722144904>99.9% of the population do not suffer from motion sickness in any formI do :(
>>722145706Start riding a bike, go to an amusement park on an empty stomach, go karting
I gooned to those 8k dancing asian sluts in DaoVR player with passthrough
can we PLEASE have one VR thread where we don't bring up porn
Cool, enjoy standing around in an empty room with a screen taped to your face while waving two dildos around like a dumbass. Enjoy looking for games that are not glorified tech demos too.
>>722145781Huh? I'm very physically active. I just get it in cars + boats + rollercoasterscars is a coin flip every time. sometimes I get it sometimes I dont. It sucks because it's a problem that genuinely ruins hours of your day, but no one gives a shit or wants to hear about it
>>722145857okay dude I didn't ask for your life story
>>722145907It was a guided meditation so you could understand that what you said was retarded
>>722145980What schizobabble is this.
>>722144935I got lasik but that's just for nearsightedness iirc, wore contacts for years before that and they are not scary (just make sure to keep your hands and your cups clean), they are just a huge hassle especially when travelling
>>722144834>get prescription lenses.This. Glasses were uncomfortable, contacts got dry fast, I was constantly annoyed... Then I got prescription lenses for my VR headset and holy hell, game changer i can use it more than 30 minutes now.
>>722142956>FlatcelA VR headset is a supplement to continuing use of normal flat displays, it's not a replacement for it. After a few months/years you'll probably find yourself mainly using the headset for porn, because that's where the abundant VR content production is, and not doing much gaming on it or not bothering to keep a big enough space cleared in front of your PC for standing stuff
>>722146115I wear dailies, so I just toss them in the toilet when I take them out.
>>722144834>>722146130Prescription lenses as opposed to... what exactly? Like lenses you'd buy at a convenience store?
>>722146162>After a few months/years you'll probably find yourself mainly using the headset for pornHey, I resemble that remark.But after spending several hours finding out how to set up a fucking VaM scene, I better get some fucking value out of it.
>>722144436Nigger, I play quake 3 in VR and feel fine.
>>722146658I played through Quake 1 and 2 in VR, no problem. HL2 made me want to puke my fucking guts out.And I used to play TF2 with the OG Oculus DK1 for hours without problem.
>>722143743I like to jerk off to beatsaber videos. Dancing girl avatars are just the best.
>>722146860cont:I think some games are just fucking wrong for VR. Must be how it renders or something. I had no problems with HL: Alyx
>>722146521Prescription lenses for the headset, as opposed to just looking at the normal lenses blind, or with contacts or glasses.
>>722142956putting on the headset for the first time was fucking magical
I have never actually put on a VR headset to this day. I am still tempted to experience it, but I'd rather just borrow one or use it in a store/demo. I feel like the VR market is dead. I ask anons on here from time to time what they use their VR headset for and most tell me they use it for porn and internet surfacing, also video watching. I guess the games for it are fun? I don't really understand how much better it is to watch stuff on it? I understand you can like sit or lay in bed with it, but I have a 55'' TV like 8 feet away from my bed, and I can watch stuff on it and play games on it....from my bed. If I really wanted to I could even watch porn on it, granted I don't. If I was going to buy a VR headset for porn, videos, and internet, then it just doesn't seem worth it. A tablet or laptop could do the same thing, but you're not wearing it on your head? So I just don't see the appeal? Does it really make it more...immersive? You're watching a porn video in VR and how does that feel more pleasurable than just looking at porn on a tablet/computer and jerking off? I'm just struggling to understand what exactly anons are getting out of it. I'd hate to buy one and have buyer's regret, like I use it for a few days and then it sits and collects dust on the floor.
>>722147560Scale feels different with VR, and when you get stuff with decent motion controls, it actually feels neat manipulating objects in the game.But yeah, porn is all that really lasts.
>>722147560Never watched VR porn, but the games are more immersive, yeah. Just try one at a store or something, you'll see. Everything is "correct" size, it's better than even a large flat screen. I was playing HL2 VR mod recently, and there's a small scripted sequence where you drive through canals and a Combine troop carrier flies over your head. In VR you really SEE how huge it this motherfucker is.
>>722145834I know you might not want to accept it, but a lot of men are probably using it for porn. You might personally be one of them, but sadly the market is what the market is.
>>722147560i like taking pictures in vr and hanging out with buddies i can't meet irl
>>722145156Same but on Pico 4. It just werks, glasses never touch the glass if the spacer is there.>but muh low FOVMy FOV is always low, I wear glasses. That's just my life
I'm waiting for the steam frame
>>722147660soon...... two more weeks at most!!
>>722147560Close one eye. That's the difference between VR and non-VR, nothing else to explain
>>722147718Not really, your brain still "knows" the size of objects in real life even if you close one eye.
>>722142956VR is cool but I get motion sick too easily for me to use it for long periods of time. had fun playing RE4VR, Skyrim VR and No Man's Sky VR though.
>>722147621>I know you might not want to accept it, but a lot of men are probably using it for pornI have no problem with that, but that shouldn't be the point in the video game board when there's like 128 dedicated porn boards on this site
>>722144904that's just inferior genetics son, cope and seethe muttoid
>>722147718Anon... have you ever put on a vr headset?
>>722144786I like how 4chan has hammered into your brain that you would be a lesser human being because you are short sightened.You need to go outside and meet some real people.
>>722147606I work at the tech department for a store, and we sell Meta Quest VR headsets. We actually see them quite regularly still, granted I don't keep track of who is buying them, like categorical wise. I've sold some that were obviously parents buying them for a child, or maybe the family would share it? The 3S sells WAY better than the 3, but that makes sense considering it's much cheaper. The resolution is much better on a 3, but looking at them spec-wise, it seems the 3S has everything the 3 does aside from lower resolution. I don't really keep up with VR technology, but my store only sells the Meta Quest ones. >>722147637I'm aware that VR Chat is probably the most used thing for VR. I don't know how it really works, kind of looks like some IMVU shit where you make an avatar and just talk to random people. I know you can spend a lot of money to get motion body tracking and voice functions to make it even more immersive.
>>722144436>can play flippy action games like sairento just fine>try a racing sim>nausea out the fucking assWhat the FUCK?
>>722146521There are vr opticians that will make lenses for the headset. As in, lenses you put on the screen inside the headset instead of on your eyes.I was using those before i had eye surgery and they work perfectly.
>>722145834I only use it for porn now, it just blows regular out of the water
>>722147861VRChat is whatever you make it really. There's tons of games and activity worlds as well as different sort of "chatting" games like one of those speed dating shows where you get a few minutes with one person before you get switched with someone else. Or if you're a degenerate, you can go all in on coomer tech and spend your days masturbating with other men in anime girl avatars.
>>722147560Depends how much time you have to burn, if you have time it’s fine but for me I don’t and I’m constantly being interrupted so the gagging about is a hassle and then you need a pc and the be to connect so like more things to go wrong
I would LOVE an Apple Vision Pro. It obviously wasn't marketed to the average consumer, but the quality of the visuals looks amazing to me. You can blow up screens to IMAX size, and the clarity of the films looks just as good as watching it in the theater. Even if I had $3,500 to blow, I obviously wouldn't blow it on this. It's still neat though.
>>722148403They're availble for half MSRP at this point, obviously still monstrously expensive but maybe not totally overpriced considering the quality of the display. I'd look into getting a used one if it had PCVR capabilities, but as far as I know it's just AR and a couple applications with a throwaway "immersive" mode
>>722149870ALVR can connect apple headset to pc
>>722148403There are android knock-offs in the range of $2000 if price is the only thing keeping you from buying one.Personally I'm waiting for the deckard/steam frames, and if it proves disappointing I'll just buy the refreshed Vision Pro that should be announced in october.I've been waiting for so long for pixel density to get acceptable for reading text, I can't wait for the next few months to be other so that I can finally jump in.
>>722144904ironically i have motion sickens irl but not in vr
>>722151578It's diifferent things. Motion sickness in VR is psychosomatic. You have cillia in your ear that detect orientation and motion. Some people's brains can't handle that they see motion but can't feel it.Your case is that the cillia freak the fuck out at certain motions they detect.
>>722143160i don't get motion sick but i do sometimes feel a slight cramp in my stomach not nauseating just wierd
>>722142956play alien isolation vr mod (mother vr)
>>722144904>vast majority of Air Force pilotsfirst of all i am a gamer second of all i am not americanyou're comparing me to people with that are inferior to me
>>722148059after im done i always feel that why are we still here just to suffer feeling
>>722144904>99.9% of the population do not suffer from motion sickness in any form>Fuck, even the vast majority of Air Force pilots who use VR for simulations suffer from Motion Sickness the first few times they use itSo you're suggesting that the airforce puts an extremely strong selection pressure on individuals prone to some form of motion sickness, such that the vast majority of pilots come from the 0.1% cohort that are subject to it?
>>722151883>I'm superior to Americans>what's air conditioning? it's 30 kilocentigrades here in liters>>722152068Washout rates are high, but I think he's saying everyone feels it a little, but 0.1% can never get past it. It's always weird at first.
>>722147856>I like how 4chan has hammered into your brain that you would be a lesser human being because you are short sightened.but he ist. hyperopic cripple
>>722152138>but I think he's saying everyone feels it a little, but 0.1% can never get past itNo, that would be a more believable assertion, his literal statement was that "99.9% of the population do not suffer from motion sickness in <<any>> form". I think he just made up data on the spot
>>722152068That is not at all what he's suggesting. Do you have 2nd grader reading comprehension? Motion sickness from IRL motion and from VR are completely different and are not comparable is his point, such that even AF pilots, which, from frequent flying get used to IRL motion impacted nausea still can't deal with VR nausea for the first few times, because it's a completely different sensation for your brain to see motion visually but not perceive it at all in your inner ear.
>>722145053ive heard of people getting contact lenses stuck in their eye. good god it makes me shiver
I have intense motion sickness, sea sickness and heights absolutely fuck me.Sorry VR bros.. go on without me..
>>722152571they make comfort settings for people like you
>>722143001>>722143160First time I tried locomotion with Boneworks I got pretty nauseous but I got used to it and it stopped happening after about 3-4 hours of playtime. You just have to push through. It's gonna happen again if you take a long pause from VR though (months to a year).
>>722152483>That is not at all what he's suggestingThere is no suggestion, he made two completely objective statements citing literal number figures and two of those statements are absurdly incongruent with one another, with the only possible way to reconcile them being the conclusion that the occupation of flying aircrafts at speeds of up to 2,000mphm mostly employs a vanishingly small minority of people who are subject to suffering from motion sickness. Like I said, he just made up some bullshit numbers on the spot and didn't have the mental acuity think about how one thing he said related to another
Imagine, gentlemen, if you will, what could have been, if the tech was available back then.https://youtu.be/wig-XT8Rbiw?si=UZny6EdGvUlYKrzb
>>722152759>citing literal number figures and two of those statements are absurdly incongruent with one anotherthey're not cause he's talking about actual motion sickness, you know, when you're IN MOTION. You're not in any kind of motion when using VR, which is why it causes nausea even to those who do not get motion sickness irl.
>>722152805imagine if this was vri heard it was actually solid outside of the fact that it was unplayable garbage
>>722152805oh my science is that 240p per eye i can almost make out what im seeing
>>722143001>>722143160Flight games like Project Wingman are the only games to fuck me up in VR. When you're looking over your shoulder constantly and tracking targets while the plane spins around, that shit sent my guts heaving.
>>722144786Are you retarded?
>>722143160the resolution and framerates were much worse a few years backI couldn't play even slow FPS, now I have no problems in any game
>>722143160the only time i ever got nauseous from a videogame is by playing too much bhop and kz maps in counterstrike, looks like thishttps://youtu.be/C3xMh8GnrKI?si=dnzHJnnk6QRLm5Ti&t=11
>>722153040I feel like it's a combination of FOV, framerate and screendoor effect that contributes to nausea. I feel like higher FOV will increase nausea cause it gives even less of a reference frame for your brain to anchor to to interpret the movement on the display - add to that low framerate and display incongruencies like the screendoor effect and it's a recipe to make your brain short circuit a little bit.
>>722153058>playing bhop in VR
>>722142956Does playing VR make anyone else need to poop? I swear I didn't have this problem when I initially bought my headset, but I've been wanting to get back into VR and every time, consistently, within MINUTES I will get the urge to shit badly. It's got to the point where if I need to shit before going somewhere (so I don't gotta later) I will use the headset intentionally to trigger the process.Is this normal anons??
>>722153568No but I feel the need to shit before going on VR. I think it's partly because I don't wanna be in the middle of talking to someone and then having to leave to take a shit. And if I shit, then I shower because I don't have a bidet and feel dirty otherwise. I'd be gone too long and be known as the long shit taker in game.
>>722153412never got to try thiscan you even do it?>>722153568i experience this when my grindr date is about to arrive

>>722154709>That's the reason why I've been working on thisBy this do you mean the standalone image or do you have a google document or something
>>722155028Don't get cocky
>>722147758>>722147829What are you guys arguing about? That VR headset doesn't have two screens instead of 1 for your traditional games? Yes your depth perception is slightly different in VR but the point is, you now have it whereas in flat you don't.
>>722154228Have you thought of using wet wipes? Showering every time you shit sounds exhausting, and I'd argue it gets things cleaner than a bidee since you've got both moisture and friction, while also full control of where you're cleaning. A final tissue wipe when done and you could eat off it that anus.
>>722154709>the new PCVR update in Hitmanbeen considering buying into VR for mainly this but anons recommended >>722147660 witch will also give ioi time to hammer out any patches they plan on doing
>>722154979Are these Pavlov or Contractors mods?
>>722154979nice, got any clips of rocket jumping in VR?
>>722153568Kinda? It's like as soon as you put the headset on you get thirsty, hungry, need to piss/poo.Brain telling you to go touch grass or something
>>722155163Don't be cock-eyed.
>>722152737>You just have to push throughthat is literally the ONE thing you can't do and the reason why so many get filteredwhen you start feeling sick from vr you STOPnext time you wont be nearly as sick
>>722155405I don't have RJ footage for TF2 but I've got some for quakeIt's really intuitive unlike kbm you you don't need to 180 flick turn. Literally just aim at your feet at an angle and jump
>>722155686That's kinda what I meant. You just have to keep doing sessions and it'll go away.
>>722155825fair enough. thought you meant push through the session when you're already sick
>>722155694How viable is it to find a match though? Or are you just playing bots
still waiting for an affordable stationary anchor for your VR space kinda like pic related. 5 grand for that seems excessive but not surprising for a novel product in an emerging market.
>>722143001>>722143160VR gives me the shits, which is good because I'm often constipated :)
>>722155120The image. I know this sounds ridiculous, but it's one less step people will have to go through to actually see the thing. Easy for others to share the image if they'd like. Maybe one day I'll make it a google doc.>>722155307I think Hitman would absolutely work as a VR title, but the fact that this is ultimately just WoA with VR slapped on top means it's kind of limited. I'll probably play a mission in full soon, so that I can speak with more confidence about it. Currently playing through Sushi Ben
>>722156097>VR gives me the shitsI thought it was just me. I have no idea why this happens.
>>722154709Think you gotta be a bit more descriptive on the VR aspects. Example, I recently bought Dungeons of Eternity and here are my first hour or so impressions. >Hack and Slash dungeon crawler where dungeons have randomized layouts and loot.>You can equip up to 3 weapons which are holstered on your hips and one on the back.>Weapons are throwable and you can recall them back sort of like telekenisis, but if they're on the ground too long then they teleport back to your holster.>Throwing weapons feels good and is a viable strategy against enemies. There is some autoaim with these so you'll end up hitting more than you think but it still feels as if you're in charge of the throw. Of course, you also need to put some force behind the throw.>Combat is more about force of swing rather than just waggling. Basic skeleton enemies have a few different attack animations that you can parry if you deflect their weapon with proper timing. Some enemies (particularly the first boss) have places you can only attack, he's too armored in other places to do damage so aiming your hits is required at times.>Healing is done via potions. You have to uncork the top of the potion which can be done with your hands, your weapon popping the top, or just pressing the trigger to pop it off. Drink or just empty the potion on yourself. You can throw the potion with enough force to break on the floor causing a healing explosion with a little pool that does continual healing until it expires in a bit. You can also hold the potion in one hand and slam your weapon against it to break it on top of you and do the healing pool.There's more I can talk about but basically say more than "just VR" as VR is implemented differently in each game.
>>722156141Probably for the same reason you'd get nausea. Inner ear/brain feels something is wrong, thinks it's been poisoned, gets the gut working to expel whatever might be in there.
Did any of you tried the new Daytona USA VRChat map? It's really cool, it works pretty well on desktop toohttps://xcancel.com/Z0NE/status/1972735874766172509https://xcancel.com/S_For_Sprinkles/status/1972748043540955368

Bowel regulation is the only reason I still have the game installed after all these years, when I say guaranteed I do mean actually, literally, 0% margin of error
>>722153568not in vr, but almost every time after i started my workout lmao
Is No Mans Sky worth it yet for VR?
>>722156056I hope they’ll have made a really good one by a decades time.
>>722156320>Bowel regulation is the only reason I still have the game installed after all these years
>>722152530I used to wear them. The optometrists tell you a retarded method of taking them out that doesnt work. They recommend that instead of pinching them out (and potentially pinching your eye or something I guess) they recommend you 'slide' them out but pressing your finger against the centre of the contact lens and pushing it to the corner of your eye where it's supposed to scrunch up a little, breaking the vacuum seal.against your eye and so popping out stuck to your finger. In reality when you try this, it doesn't scrunch up or doesn't let air in to break the vacuum and instead just slide right on past the skin and gets stuck behind your eye where you can't reach it. It is very uncomfortable and alarming when it happens and the only way to deal with it is to close your eyes and gently rub your eyelid in a circular motion hoping the corner of the contact lens will squeeze back out for you to grab and being back to the front of your eye where you can pinch it out like you should have done in the first place
>>722155957We just spin a server and play with the fags at vrg from time to timeWhat sucks is that there's no real working mods for the game so none of the advanced stuff like CPMA, clan arena or freezetag
>>722156597>We just spin a server and play with the fags at vrg from time to timeyeah I'm from the (((global south))) so that's probably not a great option for me. well normal quake is surprisingly totally playable at 150ms, but I imagine it would be worse in VR
>>722154709>skyrim vr (vanilla)
>>722143160Shit, I went to Six Flags a few a times as a kid, and I get motion sickness from playing Doom, Wolfenstein 3D, or Minecraft. It's something about the way the textures scroll in first-person.
>>722155694you cant strafe jump right?

>>722156149>There's more I can talk about but basically say more than "just VR" as VR is implemented differently in each game.I really appreciate the detailed response. I should definitely expand each entry more, but I think it's best to keep it short and to the point for the most part. I plan on adding a legend later on that indicates which entry has a video essay and which has a Let's Play. I think maybe making a supplementary google doc with significantly expanded entries, like the example you provided, would be a good idea.>>722156320>I think it's on the cusp of becoming too big to navigate in image formatI'm pretty surprised the file size is relatively low. I tried to keep the entries in alphabetical order. I definitely need to make the titles stand out a bit more. As mentioned in the other response, maybe having a supplementary google doc with expanded entries would be a good idea and would maybe help with the navigation issue.
