VR is literally just 2 images to give you a better sense of perspective, how did VR game shit even come to be? It's like making a surround sound game or something.

>DOOM 2

Nigger, that is clearly (((Wolfenstein 3D)))

>Clearly Wolfenstein 3d

>Calls it Doom 2

Holy shit

>>16125171

Beautiful doom and Smooth doom, one of them has a option for Doom 64 weapons but changes the balance also, the other one has a optional rifle modo.

There's also Dolphin VR, so you can play Gamecube and Wii games with even more wagglan. It's not exactly perfect though and I don't think it's being worked on anymore.

>>16125128

>>16125205

It's Doom 2 with the Brutal Wolfenstein 3D mod you tards.

>>16125134

So SWAT 4/3 VR?

That does sound very fun

>>16125171

almost every non gameplay wad? most map wads dont change anything

I used Roomscale VR exactly one time, so I'm a 32nd level expert on the subject compared to most of the mouthbreathers in this room.

VR is fucking awesome. I played Gorn, Hot Dogs, Horseshoes and Hand Grenades and Superhot VR, which was the killer app as far as I'm concerned. I would never, ever want to play it with a headset strapped on and conventional controls. As a huge FPS fan things like proper gun reloading and simply being able to move my head and the gun independently of each other feels like a huge step forward. Obviously not everyone wants to play standing up all the time, but I spend enough time sat on my ass as it is. Bonus shoutout to Google Earth.

The only application I can see for a headset-only option is for racing and flight/space sims, for which it would be absolutely awesome. If I was a bigger simfag I might have already taken the plunge.

Most VR "games" were made as tech demos to test hardware limitations that lazy developers turned into easy youtube e-celeb bait.

>>16128654

That's because those games were made to be games, not VR games. The addition of VR wasn't a key part in what made them what they are, whereas all games made for VR feel like lifeless clickbait. I was kind of excited for the fan made Duel Monsters VR, but it looks subpar. I believe it's been out for about a month now but it looks like it still needs to be worked on.

>>16125095

I don't know OP, Pavlov, Onward, Bullets and More, Stand Out, Gorn, Sairento, Raw Data, Drunken Bar Fight, Contractors, H3 and War Dust are fucking awesome.

Some ports that are good are LA Noire, Serious Sam, Payday 2, Elite Dangerous, SuperHot, American Truck Sim, Project Cars, Asseto Corsa and The Forest. Skyrim and Fallout 4 are ok

has anyone tried VR with games that aren't first person or would that be pointless? thinking third person games, platformers, stuff like that. hell even some RPGs would be interesting.

>>16128688

No, they were specifically made to be VR. They are a completely seperate, honest to god 60 dollar purchases of games everyone on the planet owns twice at this point just converted to VR.

>>16128697

Pavlov is some of the most fun I've had with a computer

>>16125095

Mostly because of that motion sickness, even if the people who suffer from it the worst are the same people who wouldn't be that into it it's still something that anyone with real investment into VR shies away from.

>>16128537

literally everyone on this board lives in a favela, parent's basement, subsidized housing, or off mommy daddy money

>>16131795

>everyone owns fagout 4 at least twice

I don't own it even once, I can see why people would have made the mistake of buying Skyrim at least once but if you hadn't wised up to Todd's lies by F4's time there's something wrong with your brain.

>>16132110

hey I still check in on you guys every once in a while :)

>>16132095

>motion sickness

that's why you don't play sairento as your first game. it's also not an argument when people can become motion sick from low fps and narrow fow on a normal screen. the real issue is there is no clear-cut "fix" that works for everybody, simply because everybody reacts differently and overcomes it differently (or none at all).

in general vr is more accessible than mouse or gamepad. you get someone into a game, tell them to pick sth up and they'll literally do it, there's no disconnect or abstraction. if it's a game you don't have to move like sim etc you don't even have to deal with motion sickness much.

>>16131631

sony does. see moss/astro bot rescue etc. (former has a pc version now too). dreams apparently will get a VR version too, expect lot of crazy shit (and even more literal shit).

>Talking about VR

>When most spics on this board own a PSVR

What's the point?

They'll start talking about their newest shilled walled garden shit game that's even more limited due to shit hardware.

>>16135414

>walk-o-motion

No. There is absolutely nothing wrong with using the thumbstick to move, fuck you.

>>16128604

Roomscale is a meme. VR already takes enough effort to run as is, and now you want to add having to stand up and wiggle shit around just to play? It's definitely interesting to play games like that, but it's also definitely not something most people would do on a daily basis, or even a weekly basis, especially not with the games currently out. The only returning players that use roomscale are VRChatfags, and even they often skip out on it for convenience.

>>16132095

>motion sickness

I've never ever had motion sickness from anything in VR, and I've done everything that should cause it and more. I've never heard about anyone I know that tried/has VR getting it, either, which is about 15-20 people. I think its a very exaggerated issue.

>>16125134

Pavlov VR?

Wait, Oculus only offers 90 FOV? Pathetic. Wake me up when they release 200 FOV headset without any fish eye effect to simulate real human field of view.

>>16141726

Motion sickness is caused by low FOV. I can't play anything below 90, but it never actually got me sick because I just ALT+F4 if the FOV is that bad. I usually raise it to 100 or 110, depending on the game and distortion. I imagine there are plenty of people that can't or don't want to play at 90 FOV.

>games that are designed from the ground up to be """VR GAMES""" are rancid ass

Are you retarded, or do you not have VR?

Roomscale VR games is how VR should be played, desktop to VR ports fucking suck and when they don't use the motion controls they're 99/100 utter garbage.

The only reason why you would think otherwise is either you have no idea how VR actually works in practice, or you are so fucking fat you can't stand up straight for more than a minute.

There are decent VR games already, such as Robo Recall, VTOL VR, Vox Machinae, Iron Wolf VR, Pavlov and Sairento VR.

There is not even one worthwhile VR game to play that uses a headset and a controller is worthwhile, or wouldn't be straight up better with tracked controls.

>>16143887

VR is still rancid ass, and will be until it's actually fully immersive or holodeck level of advanced. I've tried it, and the naysayers are more or less correct. Just because you invested thousands of dollars in what at the moment amounts to a mediocre gimmick doesn't give you an excuse your shit opinion down the throat of everyone you meet. Find a better way of dealing with your buyer's remorse than shilling on an anonymous board of jaded for a dead and buried technology.

Current-gen HMDs would do a lot better if they were actually marketed as a simple HMD, by calling it "VR" you get retards like >>16143982 who reject the tech just because it doesn't match their impossible Hollywood fantasies.

>>16144108

>impossible Hollywood fantasies

8k res headsets with 200 FOV are being developed, once they get to 16k it should be pretty immersive.

I don't think VR could do any better at the moment, all they offer is shitty games viewed through a an equivalent of tank driver's vision port.

>>16144108

Again, find a better way to deal with your buyer's remorse than shilling and back pedaling on broken promises for free. It may not be as bad as the virtual boy, but the tech still isn't really there- even for the ridiculously high end and expensive headsets.

Being a corporate shill who calls the customers entitled and close-minded for criticizing a product is incredibly pathetic, and doing it for free doubly so. It's not matching some strawman of "Hollywood fantasies" that you pulled out of your ass, it's that as it stands- Virtual Reality technology is still incredibly primitive, lacking in worthwhile content, and is mainly an expensive gimmick that mostly gathers dust on a shelf until the next company markets it as "actually ready this time we swear". Also not helping is that instead of going for a glove controller/kinect combo, they just bundled more expensive wiimotes. Even 4K displays are still really only useful for UHD bluray and higher end gaming PCs do to even the 8.5/9th gen consoles still having tremendous limitations due their unbalanced and underpowered hardware, and most internet in the world still being dial-up tier.
