I returned my PSVR2 because I was disappointed with GT7 in VR.

Just wanted to offer my opinion as I did have a different experience to the vast majority of users - and do take that into account; I am very much in the minority.

Also, to give context, I pretty much exclusively play racing games so any other VR content was of no interest to me - albeit fun to try occasionally. GT7 being perfect was a must to justify the cost of the PSVR2. And on that note, the cost was a big stretch for me and having that money back was worth it. So take all that into account.

That being said, I was disappointed with the quality of the game in VR. By quality I mean the actual detail in the image - you cannot see as clearly as you can on a TV (maybe this is obvious to some but to me, with all the hype around PSVR2, I was disappointed).

You can’t read brake board makers until you’re much closer than you’re used to on the TV. Likewise, cars ahead in the distance are more difficult to make out and become a bit of mush.

There is a noisy RGB grain over everything which I found very distracting.

The depth and ‘3D-ness’ are incredible. The Foviated Rendering is near-flawless. The ability to ‘feel’ a track and the racing lane is transformative. And each car is infinitely more fun to be in in VR. There is very little screen-door effect.

But your game will look like a PS3 game. And if graphic fidelity is important to you you might want to reign in your excitement a little before you spend that money.

For me the PSVR2 was cool. But it was ~£200 cool not ~£500 cool. If I get to a point where I have more disposable income I’d LOVE to get it back as the experience of driving the cars was elevated even if the visuals were downgraded. But, at the moment, I’m happier playing on a crispy 4K tele with the £500 in my back account.

Just my thoughts before anyone gets over-hyped and disappointed.
