    I don't want VR in the first place. 
    At least not until it's done with implants and a sensory deprivation tank. 

    "Hold my calls!" 

    Once upon a time....

    Hard pass by me on VR.  Not until the headset is so minimalistic I don't even know it is there. 

    EQ1, EQ2, SWG, SWTOR, GW, GW2 CoH, CoV, FFXI, WoW, CO, War,TSW and a slew of free trials and beta tests

    Are we talking about fantasy VR where immersion is perfect, you control the game with your mind, and you don't even notice the tech?

    Or are we talking about the crappy, clunky, unimmersive, and limited VR we actually have?

    When we get to the point of .hack //sign VR then I'd say Lineage II, the world alone would be an experience.

    I think room projection would be great. A spherical room that rotated with your movement.

    currently as it is, VR sucks.  The games suck for VR as well.  So none.

    City of Heroes - I think that Super Strength & Super Jump would be mind boggling experiences in VR.

    Come on, people.  You're not thinking hard enough about this.  Which old MMO would you like to re-launch?  If it comes back as a VR title, then it comes back.  So you could use this as an excuse to request whichever MMO that has shut down you want back.

    VR currently isn't really that good.  MMOs require me to spend hours and hours in the game, I can't stand wearing VR headsets for more than 20 minutes, eye strain, neck cramps, headaches, etc.  Just not worth it.

    honestly none, VR makes me want to vomit for any play session beyond a hour. I couldn't imagine a WOW raid or a night of farming in Azeroth without a vertigo induced nightmare

    Pretty much none.  VR has too far to go for me to be comfortable with it.  Far too many people won't even use in-game voice chat for me to believe that they would use a VR device.



    Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.

    Most of you seem to not like VR. I tried out VR not too long ago and was completely blown away. What an amazing experience. I'm wondering if some of you have really got to experience the good VR and not one of those cheap / silly phone helmet kits.

    Yeah! Flying around or even that jump would be insane. Heck. Even flying around on a dragon via WoW would be sweet.

    It's not that we don't like it, it's that we don't want to do all of our gaming that way...A few minutes here and there fine.

    We are currently at .hack// level.  .Hack// is HMD head mounted display and that's what VR are right now.

    As for the game , i want to see fantasy star online 2 go VR .

    There's so many flaws with VR still, sadly.
    The way the game is developed can, by itself, make a person sick.  It doesn't even have to be a flaw of VR.  It can just as easily be game design flaws that don't mesh with VR.

    There's just so many moving parts.  I love VR.  I don't get motion sickness, typically, but some (poorly designed) games have made me woozy.

    On topic:
    It'd be really hard to pick one, since most MMOs aren't first-person titles.  It's kind of hard to picture what some of those worlds would look like in first-person immersion.

    Even though, the level design isn't my favorite, I'm going to say FF14 would be a good VR title.  They have so many little details and beautiful environments.  I love the attention to detail in that game.

    I don't think very many old MMOs would make very good VR titles, though.  You kind of need a game designed specifically for that perspective.

    ESO VR would be interesting. But maybe Darkfall. Something open world. But I hate FFA. So perhaps,,, idk. Nvm

    VR has so far to go that the "old mmo worthy of being re-launched" hasn't been re-leased yet!

    We aren't, you lay down you go unconscious and your mind is the control.  Did you even watch it?
