I've never used that ISS thing, but isn't starting someone on a VR app with locomotion a bad idea for the sake of VR sickness? I've been paranoid about it since I gave it to myself first messing with VR. I've since gained "VR legs", but that experience is burned into my memory. > Google Earth is surprisingly enjoyable too You can still use that? I loved it back when I had such poor internet that it didn't work right (the beta option to change perspective (scale/zoom) was mindblowing), but heard google were shutting it down. Closest I got to an alternative is "wander" which is just street view, no 3d models.

I've been paranoid about it since I gave it to myself first messing with VR. I've since gained "VR legs", but that experience is burned into my memory. Good question. VR sickness isn't so much of an issue because: + they only spend max 5 minutes on it (it's more a demo than a long term gaming session + the motion is controlled by the player. So they can go as intensive or chilled as they like > You can still use that? I loved it back when I had such poor internet that it didn't work right (the beta option to change perspective (scale/zoom) was mindblowing), but heard google were shutting it down. Closest I got to an alternative is "wander" which is just street view, no 3d models. This was a Steam VR application rather than via the web browser. That said, I haven't been on it in recent months so Google might have shutdown whatever APIs the desktop application hit.
