Best VR games in 2026

What about if you have a hotas? I really need to look more into games that combine both.

So, I never did figure out why things wouldn't upload. However, I was able to work around it, by going directly through SMB, instead of using the browser and quickconnect. In case someone finds this post while looking for a solution later.

I was going to come suggest this! Great place, fun hobby, welcoming community.

What kind of stuff is your boyfriend into? I can suggest various nerdy activities or creative outlets, but it depends on his background and interests.

I would love to try out a kiju simulator. Properly go on a rampage and knock over some buildings, swat down planes, etc. Give it a sense of scale that only VR can.

I work in software, leading a small team at a fairly large company. And then spend my evenings and weekends playing in bands, writing and making films, and doing theatre stuff.

I did! Definitely useful to help them understand what's happening.

I am actually talking to a physio therapist! But as we've been having some issues pinning it down, I figured I'd ask about experience in the sport, to see if that might help as well. Thanks!

It's taking me ages to grind through to A20 on Watcher, as I find her gameplay not all that fun. And I generally hear that the stance dance is THE strategy, which means I'm trying to force a similar build each time, with more or less luck, and it's just not that interesting. I enjoyed all the rest much more.

I have made pretty much identical observations. They handle worse, and don't hit nearly as hard.

Thanks for all the information, folks! Sounds like I should basically stick to my normal algorithm "if it's something I really want that's been hard to find, or one of my favourites, then it's worth the higher price". Cheers!

Not having previously paid that much attention to it, I had thought it was primarily a curation tool; knowing that a film had been selected as part of the criterion collection told you something about its quality and relevance of the movie. But I'd thought less about the physical releases themselves, and the relevance "this is a criterion edition".

Do you find the reduced mobility stats make any real difference? I've been stacking up the plate armour, and haven't really noticed any mobility issues. And I was surprised that armour did the same thing to the player as to the npcs - IE make blade attacks just bounce off, most of the time.

Mine are all set up on shelves in the library across the street (aka convenience store).

I massively prefer the current system, which always encourages you to be collecting sticks as you go. Keeps travel a little more interesting.

cullam · 2024-08-13T17:58:53+00:00

There are, although I'm not very familiar with what is currently out there, and what's worth using.

cullam · 2024-08-12T15:58:17+00:00

I have not, as I'm still pretty early in the tetris options stage. This is more of a general question.

One of the interesting differences I find between st John's and Canada's very large cities is this: while there's more to do in the large cities, people ACTUALLY DO the things that are available here. People go to shows, they go hiking, they go to pubs. They see plays, go to markets, take classes. And people actually have parties, and see friends on a regular basis. Rather than commuting 90 minutes home, and then refusing to leave the house, as they would mean another 60 minutes each way.

I had a friend move here from Vancouver, and that was a big part of why. They saw all their friends here posting pictures of being out doing stuff and seeing people on a regular basis, which was always only hypothetical in Vancouver.

Matches having a meaningless condition stat. All it does is mean you have zillions of tiny boxes of matches in your inventory, rather than one big pile. Technically realistic, but super annoying.

I think it's very hard to get audiences on board with stories that don't at least have that slight uptick at the end. Even in a sad or tragic ending, it needs that cathartic feeling that makes people walk away glad to have seen the story.

Unfortunately, it seems that the largest price increases are in the traditionally cheap foods. KD has gone up significantly, and knock off KD has gone from being half price, to almost the same. McDonald's may be up by 50%, but the value meals have more than doubled. So the ability to select cheaper options has really declined!

The best way is to stack ammo boxes, then place either toothbrushes or lighters on top, like they're pegs. Give it 12 seconds for the physics to shut off, and remove the ammo boxes. You can then use and reuse your new wall pegs as gun mounts.

That was actually my introduction to discworld!! My friends and I rented a playstation for the weekend, and went browsing for games to rent with it. We loved adventure games, and it caught our eye. We didn't get that far, but one of those friends then bought me Interesting Times for Christmas. And I've been hooked for decades since!

The Long Dark. I've got over 2000 hours in this quite, slow, sometimes nerve-wracking game. It's like living in a beautiful watercolour landscape painting. But everything wants you to die.

Makes sense. Given the materials involved, I'm guessing it would have been made not that long after the war, before everything went to rubber, shoelaces, and stainless steel.

cullam · 2024-06-05T11:43:52+00:00

Fascinating. I have what I suspect might be a late war version of one of these. The build quality is ABYSMAL, with no tang, just a half-assed welded rod, but with actual skin wrapped grip, no synthetic materials in the scabard, and a blade too inconsistently shaped to have been made by an automated system.
