>>737822519Are VR horror games any good? Would it be worth to get a VR set to play them?
>>737823394Is it worth sinking hundreds and hundreds of dollars into a niche medium with very little utility just to play horror games? No. That said Dreadhalls has been a staple horror game for me for over 12 years now and it still scares the fuck out of me when I play it alone at night.
Kill yourself jaknigger.
>>737823394Built from the ground up VR horror games are pretty shitty. But the VR mods for stuff like Alien: Isolation and RE7 are pretty good

>>737823176I really don't like that they've seemingly abandoned finger tracking, it was super immersive. I know this one is supposed to TECHNICALLY track it but without the little knuckle strap theres no way to extend all of your fingers without dropping the controller
>>737822519>your POV
>>737822519>forced hood vignette and quick-turn>hands disappear when you grab things and clip through the environmentShame, Little Nightmares VR is pretty cool otherwise, despite being short even by the series' standards
>>737823394I wouldn't know, too scary.
>>737828501It has capacitive finger tracking
>>737825385He doesn't know because he's never used either one but still has strong opinions he needs to share on the subject
wen fully immersive vr
>>737828501>but without the little knuckle strap theres no way to extend all of your fingers without dropping the controllerValve are selling an accessory box that includes straps that attach to dedicated anchors on the controllers, along with the missing top strap. It's retarded that's not just included by default, but it's still something technically.https://www.roadtovr.com/steam-frame-ergonomic-kit-and-modular-design-enables-a-wide-range-of-comfort-options/

>>737831627Passthrough is a gimmick.
Is it worth getting a VR headset for PS5?My PC can't do it and the PS5 is just collecting dust otherwise.>>737822519
>>737832270Sony has already given up on the psvr2. So look at what games it currently has and see if that's enough. Don't expect any other big hitters to hit the platform. I would go so far as to say a quest 3 is still a better value even if you only use it for the onboard processing. But even that's almost getting no games these days.
>>737832178nah a wireless headset should have good pass throughim willing to bet their dongle wont solve wifi lag in congested areas like apartments too i have to use an ethernet adapter for quest 3 to get a decent bit rate
>>737831627i kind of prefer monochrome desu
>>737828501Finger tracking was whatever, it was cool for a bit but that's about it. You're gonna want to get a knuckle strap regardless of fingertracking or not.
>>737831627Like the other anon said, it's a gimmick.Are you so fucking lazy you can't take the thing off if you need to shit with more fidelity in reality? And mixed reality is even more of a pointless meme than just pure passthrough. Unless you enjoy 10 min tech demo gimmicks that can't have any genuine depth without turning it into proper VR anyway.
>>737833825*Gameplay and mechanical depth, not 3D depth.
>>737833825>>737833414>>737832178only valve can get away with nerfing features and their apple tier cult will eat it up
Why is there no good camera based / wi-fi based body tracking yet? I'm pretty sure the tech is there already.
>>737833976i also prefer quest 2 passthrough to quest 3, its not a valve dickrider thing
I pretty much only use my Quest3 for porn and iRacing
>>737833976Nah, I own a couple of (older, because I'm not dumping money into this shit) VR headsets, one of which has a cam but getting it to work is a pain in the ass, the other doesn't have one at all.At no point the entire time I've owned them did I ever feel like I was missing out on anything with the lack of passthrough, colour or otherwise. Because if I need to do shit out of VR, I can just take the fucking headset off.>>737834036>no good camera basedLatency will be shit and compute will eat your computer's performance, if we're talking about "Just point some RGB cameras at you around the room and make the computer figure it out".>(no good) wi-fi basedBecause the resulting tracking quality's gonna be kinda shit compared to strapping hardware to you and figuring out from there.The best body tracking solution that's come along is magnet tracking via FluxPose. Remains to be seen if there's any gotcha's as it hasn't been real-world outside-of-dickriders-and-devs testing yet, but it's the type that shows the most promise.
>>737834036we tried that already, magnets are the future
>>737834036>wi-fi based body trackingoy vey

>>737836020>fluxposeVery cool, thanks anon
>>737822684suffering from success
>>737834607>>737836020wonder if this is worth pre ordering before getting a Steam Frame.I've got an old HTC vive, but haven't used it in forever because the screendoor effect on it started really bugging my eyes.
I just want Frame
>>737822519>fell for the VR meme>it's fiddly to get games to work correctly>some games require openXR, some games openVR>you have to install this patch>you have to install this software>you have to install this mod>you have to bypass steam>you have to bypass this other thing>you need to upgrade your hardware>finally get the game to launch properly and run at acceptable performance>novelty wears off after 30 minutes>if you play a simulator, it's a game changer, but the headache and eye strain is insane>beat all of my fastest times in Dirt Rally 2.0 and EA WRC>but a single stage is enough to have me exhausted>this means that if I want to play, I have to set up the wheel, pedals, shifter and VR headset for what will be, tops, a 2 hour gaming session>headset ends up in a drawer and I play with it every three or four weeks for a Saturday afternoon and that's itI fell for it.Elite Dangerous, DR2.0, EA WRC, DCS, Project Wingman, House of the Dying Sun and Assetto Corsa is all I play semi-regularly. Every other "VR focused" game is a fucking gimmick meme, Wii tier.
>>737825385I think the PSVR2 is the only one that's OLED. But on PC it doesn't have HDR and eye-tracking like it does on the PS5.Still the best headset under $500, tho. You can get eye tracking foveated rendering working with a patch.
>>737822519how many hours of "good" gameplay would a VR title need for it to be a must buy?
>>737837282FluxPose?Normal "Don't preorder" rules apply, but if you want a body tracking solution that doesn't have the problem all optical tracking solutions do (read: require line-of-sight), then there isn't a real option that exists or is coming along.It's not a HMD, that has to be something else.
is this good if i just want to shoot people in solo?
>>737838213>Normal "Don't preorder" rules apply, but if you want a body tracking solution that doesn't have the problem all optical tracking solutions doI guess thats fairI'm just worried that the price will go up enough after they're available for sale that I won't be interested anymore.
>>737830184Hot Dog Horseshoes, don't think it ever goes on sale thoughProject Wingman if you like flyingBeat Saber if you don't mind re-installing the song mod every updateWalking Dead if you want to kill some zombiesHard Night VR is a shittier version but for some reason I found the mindless zombie killing fun, has jank driving too.
>>737822519
>>737822519When I play Skyrim I always make myself a little bit taller than those Altmer women in Solitude. How DARE those whores look down on me.
>>737838591I need it
>>737838153Even if talking just currently commercially available headsets, no there's also the Bigscreen Beyond 2(e), MeganeX SuperLight 8K, some potions from Pimax, and all the meme Apple Vision Pro / The Chinese one / The Samsung/Android ones.Then going back in time, OG Vive + Vive Pro (Eye), Oculus Rift, PSVR the original, Pimax XR, the original Bigscreen Beyond, StarVR One, a myriad of obscure chinese ones, some of the Windows Mixed Reality headsets, Oculus Quest the original, and a couple I'm probably forgetting.>But on PC it doesn't have HDR and eye-tracking like it does on the PS5.Some VRChat players went and made a homebrew driver to fix those issues. Don't recall what the state of HDR is (which is kind of a meme without the software support anyway), but the eye tracking has been blown wide open for some time now. Been able to run homebrew shit on the headset itself even.
>>737838329Yeah, playing solo is fine.
>>737838885>Options from Pimax, fuck.
>>737838885has pimax finished any headset yet or do they still sell half-baked extremely expensive headsets, promise to implement the rest of the feature and then never do?
>remember I have a VR headset>think of what VR game to play>remember all the wires I'd have to set up again>play a regular game insteadevery time
>>737838083i have hundreds of hours across many games and 95% of the time i just launch something through virtual desktop and it just werkssorry your technologically illiterate
How much irl space do I need for VR headset?
>>737824072This is why I'm still using the original Vive all these years later
>>737839283i play on a 5x5 circular fuzzy mat so i can play without a guardian displayworks well for me i never touch the edges of it
>>737839283Lots if you plan on standing, you WILL move around more than you think and bump into shit/punch walls.I use a swivel stool when I've got limited space
>>737839283If you have enough space to throw down a small rug with a bit of clearance around you then you're good. You shouldn't be moving anywhere. Just turning on the spot. The rug tells you where you are so you can stay centered. I live in a 1-bedroom apartment and my "living room" space between my couch and TV is plenty.
>>737839241>you have to buy virtual desktop
>>737839594>you WILL move around more than you think and bump into shit/punch wallsIf you're punching walls then you're doing something wrong.
>>737840027you dont HAVE to but its more feature rich than air link or steam linkim willing to pay like 15 dollars for a better experience
>>737839148Yep.Or worse, if you have wireless controllers>they're always out of battery when you want to use them>even if you are not going to use them, you need them to operate SteamVR (because using a controller doesn't work 70% of the time for some retarded reason).None of this shit is plug and play. Every single game I've tried in VR at least something didn't work out of the box or I needed to search on forums for a response, patch or mod to fix shit.
>>737839425A 3x3 is good enough for me.
>>737840395as with any other controller just get a fucking charge stand for it
>>737840504Or depending on the controllers, some AA batteries.
>>737823394They're immersive as fuck, which makes the horror much more effective. You can dip your toes in with a used Q2 for like 150 bucks, no reason not to go for it since you can resell for pretty much no loss except your time.
i bought a quest 3 a month ago to play all the resident evil games with the vr mod.yesterday i gave up trying to get it to work and bought a used index.
>>737828438>6'6 irlI'm trying to get a height of consent law passed so women aren't allowed to molest manlets under 6'10".
>>737822519>vr porn where they position the camera like 3ft above the girls headis this wish fulfillment?
>>737842709Why would you want to get rid of /ss/?
Come play VRChat, we have mahjong
>>737843612This looks very gay
am i going to need a good rig to play some good porn games, or is the Quest 3 good enough?
Been holding off buying this for years. I really enjoyed the Boneworks story mode, but from what I've read this is more sandbox focused which is something that doesn't appeal to me at all, is it worth buying just for the single player campaign?
>>737844579not really, maybe if its on a decent sale
>>737844549You'll need a VR capable PC to play anything not from the Meta store. There's no way to use the Quest 3's inbuilt specs while also streaming from your PC afaik
>>737830184Which contractors. The good one is the old one (contractor$) for the mods. Breachers is still better than forefront. I go into breachers 5x more times than I go into forefront
>>737846313Exfil Zone is pretty fun, especially now they added a PvE mode so it's SPTarkov-lite
>>737844579i have tried boneworks like 4 times since it launched and i always do the tutorial and get boredhow long do you need to play to have more than just a brick and maybe a hammer?
>>737846448So its like the game I tried to refund
>>737846645You get a pistol after fighting through some zombies and turrets, there might be a hidden one in that first area but I don't remember
>>737844579Bonelab's campaign is ass, and I say this as a Boneworks defender.
>>737839283I live in a one room apartment that's 28 square meters.I bought a fluffy mat that is round and the diameter is 160cm or 5.2 feet.The distance from the edge of the mat to something I could hit like a wall or smth is 80cm or 2.6 feet, this is due to my arm length, yours may vary.So basically you need an empty space of 3.2 meters times 3.2 meters or 10.5 feet times 10,5 feet.
Here's the trvkePeople don't like VR because you have to stand and/or walk.
>>737848656I play VR sitting on my fat ass
I had a cv1 on release but sold it because it had the ps5 disease and i cant just play sims all day.
