Have you tried flight/driving sims in VR? You might change your tune once you realize how much closer to reality it feels compared to having a bunch of monitors in front of your face.
You also get that close to reality visual experience for a few hundred bucks, compared to professional sims that would be totally out of reach to anyone but actual flight training companies (and hobbyists with large amounts of time and money).
- Rebelgecko 7y agoI tried once and I felt like I was going to throw up. Hopefully the software and hardware is better now
- p1necone 7y agoI believe for most people the following applies: Camera movement independent of what your body is feeling = vomit Camera movement consistent with player movement = no vom For the most part inside the cockpit of a plane or car it's not so bad (for me at least) as you're largely experiencing the same forces as your eyes make you think you should be experiencing. But as soon as I play something with a third person camera that follows something I get immediately sick (Lucky's Tale was the specific game I remember doing this to me). YMMV of course, but you should try playing something where the only continuous movement is controlled directly by your head movement. The way VR action games usually get around this limitation is by letting you point to a spot and instantaneously teleport there.
- Rebelgecko 7y agoFor the VR driving game I played, it was most problematic when I hit a rail or another car. I think my physical sensations not matching what I saw was what made it uncomfortable
- p1necone 7y agoI really want to play a flight sim and do loop de loops until I feel sick now...
