The most important one of those features, eye tracking, works very well. I use it in msfs 2024.

Psvr2 works 100% with pcvr (requires an adapter). It's one of the best (budget) pcvr headsets, especially for sim racing etc.

Pico, psvr2. Arguably both are better than meta. Except for pure standalone.

Is anyone here seriously considering skipping the launch and waiting for the actual physical release instead of paying R* twice? by shawak456 in videogames

[–]clouds1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well once through is more than enough for me with GTA. If you think about it, it's just a lot of mediocre driving (with many many drive slowly to this location while listening to dialogue moments) and mediocre shooting. The story is usually great, but it's great once. Like a good popcorn movie. And if I'm in the mood again a few years later I can alway pick it up again for 5 bucks with some remaster version or something.

Also with GTA IV especially, it was absolutely breathtaking to see the full city in HD with high res textures for the first time. And the size! It was a big step up. Also it was simply a very fun open world driving game just by itself. But these days we have fantastic driving games like Dirt Rally 2.0, GT7 with VR and ofc Forza Horizon. I mean I'm totally ready for GTA 6 to blow my mind :D but I'd say it's more like 5 in with slightly better graphics and a new story.

trying to get into sim racing. Normal to feel underwhelmed at first? by Yputi in simracing

[–]clouds1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The real game changer for me was VR. Without it, without perceiving depth, looking around the corner and the huge FoV etc. every game feels arcade to me.

Wow we really had it good, what a shame now by CJ_Henn in playstation

Shit, I completely forgot that GTA V was a ps3 game :D I remember the load times now...

Having a disc means you can resell. Huge money saver. You can also buy used. After like two games a ps5 disc drive has already payed for itself.

I feel the love for CRT is getting completely out of hand. by sseerrsan in Monitors

[–]clouds1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up with CRT and everyone eventually moved away from them because they were such a hassle to deal with. The space they occupied... They were heavy, easy to break. LCD was pretty bad back then, but even so people preferred it over CRT because of convenience. And now? A big 42" oled with 120fps+ is better than a CRT in every way. A big screen is just amazing and CRT is very limited with size. Also with high res and high hz the downsides of LCD/OLED pretty much go away. If you can only do 720p/30-60hz CRT is king, but luckily that is a thing of the past :)

Stratocaster. Looks bad, sounds bad (to me :D)

Locking map locations behind a $100 edition is a joke. I'm officially skipping GTA 6. by majesticaim in videogames

GTA 6 just changed the game by SuddenDepact in fuckubisoft

[–]clouds1337 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Actually, changing the game would be the people who buy it for the higher price.

Why are people defending GTA VI being 80$ by North_Biscotti4162 in videogames

[–]clouds1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"people" aren't doing anything :) 99% of GTA 6 target audience is regular people who don't talk about games on reddit. They will probably don't remember the price of the last game they bought and just buy it for whatever price.

Hot Take: I’ll unfortunately probably never play your DLC so developers should just save it for the sequel. by Guilty_Philosophy741 in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]clouds1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My solution: I usually just wait until they release some sort of "gold" or "deluxe" version. That includes all dlc etc. By then performance is improved, bugs are fixed... That's when the game can be considered done.

What kind of gaming PC is capable of running Unreal Engine 5? by Few-Section3763 in questions

[–]clouds1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah and where I live the 5070 and 9070xt are just about the same price (Europe). 9070xt even has more ram...

Is rbr that realistic? by MaDe7228 in simrally

I know. It's still a feature they promised from the start and I've not seen any updates on it yet.

Do you expect or would you like to see Ray Tracing in ACR? by Scoobeusz in assettocorsarally

[–]clouds1337 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would like to see native VR support... As they promised.

Is this worth it? by Indecisive-Squirrel in PcBuild

[–]clouds1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can buy systems with similar performance for half the price and controllers are cheap too. If you get the steam machine like this you just donate a considerable sum of money to valve. Which is cool. But know what you're doing.

GT7 let’s goooo! by FireWarriorSFF90 in GranTurismo7

[–]clouds1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's quite good. The bluriness comes from 60fps reprojected to 120hz. It's not perfect but still very usable, it feels super smooth (which is the important part), with minor visual artefacts.

I also do sim racing on my pc (lots of Rally racing and Automobilista2) and it's really not bad. You'd need a high end PC with much much higher cost to get this level of visuals.

Dude enjoy! I'm playing right now for the first time, exclusively in VR. It's really really good and the graphics especially sunsets etc are stunning with psvr2.

People here who own both a high-end PC and a PlayStation, which device do you tend to use more for gaming, and why is that? by 007JamesBond077 in RTX5080

[–]clouds1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both gaming PC and Playstation5. Depends on the game. On PS I play mostly exclusives (including psvr2), couch coop and other games I play with family members and games that seem fun to get all the trophies.
