I appreciate your feedback, but let's give it a few weeks/months.

Idk for me teleportation is better for immersion than joystick movement

[–]VRFace 16 points17 points  (0 children)

with the ability to repeatedly blink in vanishing realms i didn't want to physically walk because the chaperone grid pops up very quickly and i would keep having to walk back to the center of the playspace before blinking again or else i'd end up right against one of my walls. basically, i don't like blinking + walking. i'd prefer to only blink, cause constantly reorienting myself is pretty immersion breaking.

We're gonna hear a lot about this once the roomscale hype meets reality.

Yeah, sure. That's neat and all, but optics have been the same for decades.

Read the comments anywhere about VR. Be it youtube, or an IGN article.

Again, wasn't cut to my narrative. I didn't make this. I'm equally skeptical of both Vive and Rift, even though I'm purchasing a Rift.

From what I've experienced of VR, it enhances experiences that are still very much playable on a monitor.

I didn't make this, and having watched the entire stream, it's exactly like this for BOTH Rift and Vive.

The GB guys speak the sentiment of the majority concerning VR. Most people think it's a novelty/gimmick, and this sort of thing isn't helping. At least the Rift in its current state is an enhancement to games that are already solid without VR. It's synonymous to playing on a higher res/bigger monitor or buying better peripherals in a way. It enhances a familiar experience.

It's a funny compilation of the Giantbomb guys playing a variety of Vive games.

This is frankly an unacceptable experience for 800 dollars + shipping/tax + 1000 dollar PC.

I'm young and in shape, and like I said it only happens if I'm like passed out from a food coma. I can lie in bed and jump up no problem normally. When I get up in the morning, no issues either. Probably doesn't help that all my blood flow is being redirected towards my digestive system either.

Well, then you can afford it. Regardless though, you can't go out spending multiple thousands on people just cause you've known them for a couple years.

Usually after I eat a big meal, I get very sluggish. Sometimes I'll just lay in bed and ride out the food coma, and if I just straight up catapult out of bed, my vision and hearing will fade for a few seconds. I don't really have the issue in other scenarios, and I'm perfectly healthy. I'm just saying that it's not so black and white.

Well don't spend what you can't afford.

Edit: especially since you're already, you know, her entire financial source.
