ICYMI: Besthesda has just announced that they're developing VR
versions of both Doom and Fallour 4. SteamVR and Vive will see them
first, which probably means they're motion controlled. I do hope that
they give discounts (or even give them for free) for the owners of the
non-VR versions of the games, but I'd still buy them either way. VR and
Fallout 4, especially with the modding community (if there is one), is a
match made in heaven. Same goes for Doom, only that its a match made in
hell. Lol.
With the RX480 coming up, VR gaming just got a whole lot better for PC gamers as a whole.

Then to think they are asking 600 bucks for just the headset is laughable,so to achieve true full VR and WHEN it happens will be like 3k by that time.Not only achieving the technology,but the games themselves need to be well done to utilize it.
Then take it one step further,everyone has been complaining for a long time that we need game play over graphics,so does anyone actually think devs are going to give us both and spend more time in both areas of their games,no way in hell,not unless you think they will spend 400 million and 7-8 years to develop a game.So looking at it in realistic terms,it is NOT going to happen for a very long time.
This whole ra of VR is nothing more than cell phone gimmicks,every manufacturer has a supposed new and better one and everyone flocks to spend their money foolishly.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
Who knows? They might just announce that soon enough. Lol. Dragons and VR sure would make a fine mix.
Its also likely why they are not going the Oculus compatibility route

Whilst I'm like this:
And it is possible if so, that many of us aren't real, and there are fake humans which we would know as AI pretending to be human, to really sell us on this being reality.
Hey I did quote a matrix post, so this is perfectly on topic :P

If this were to come true, we'd all be as fat as those humans in Wall-e. As much as I prefer sitting down to play VR, I'd think it'd be benefit us more if we could actually move around. It's just going to look weird, though. Lol.

The CEO of Tesla Motors / SpaceX agrees with you. You've heard of the simulation argument, of course? I find it to be a technocratic reiteration of a much older concept, that of Maya found in the Hindu faith.
It's an interesting philosophy, though, because it has the propensity to explain a few current mysteries in science, such as the Fermi Paradox, or possibly even quantum gravity. Personally, though, I find it a bit lazy to resort to 'well, it's a simulation, duh! Of course the standard model doesn't account for Einstein's theory of general relativity' (I have a little more faith in science). sld:pleased: sdfs:pleased:
More interesting are implications like how the simulation argument syncs up with the Doomsday argument (we aren't living in a simulated reality because humans go extinct before ever developing the technology necessary to run great numbers of ancestor simulations).
It's fascinating stuff.
Personally, I find it best to realize, as Hammock put it: "All is dream and everything is real".

Do you generally have motion sickness? Or only in VR? My wife can't play FPS games at all. With VR and 3D, I feel nauseous more when there are lower framerates or just bad sync.

Seems like they are spiting themselves in a bad case of sour grapes tbh, given Zenimax's history with OR, which also cost them a certain amount of credibility at the time too, crazy really, because in business, you can't afford to hold grudges like that. O.o
Most of these games may never even be released (outside of the crappy ports)
Current tech promotes eye strain, headaches and lacks any other form of immersion than simply covering your eyes. A circus trick, no more really.
Is it really? In my mind having steam on your side gives the HTC a huge edge over it's competitors long term. At the end of the day it's going to be the content catalog that determines who comes out on top here not which one is the most technical advanced and it's hard to believe at least in the PC world that steam isn't going to be a big part of that factor.
