Vorpx worth getting or an alternative?

Never tried VorpX, though I briefly tried Vireio Perception back in the DK days. I'd rather just use native games though - I can't be arsed with messing about with hacks* in order to try and get something vaguely working. Guess I'm just getting more impatient the older I get :p

*upcoming Alien Isolation hack not included, though that's based on partial VR support that's already there, so my grumpiness about general VR hacks still stands :D
 
My experience of VorpX is terrible.

Wrinkly, have you felt nauseous playing any VR games so far? If you have then I would avoid VorpX, it's the worst.

VorpX has improved a lot since last year. It's now very easy to configure and get into. Some people have high praise it for it, and it's why I bought it, but, it was never as good for me as I thought it would be. FlukeRogi's phrase sums it up "Vaguely working" because that's the best I could get it to work. It never looked quite right. To me it looked more like I was walking through a 360 video than I was actually there. Aiming was off, some objects don't look right and motion was vomit inducing.

Skyrim is universally claimed to the best game in VorpX. That's what I bought it for. It looks amazing when you launch the game and you look around, but after a few minutes of moving around and trying to play, you begin to notice that things aren't quite right. This was annoying for me.

YMMV of course :) that's just my experience with it. I try it every so often to see if anything has improved. As I said, the interface etc has come on a lot, but, how it works and looks in games hasn't changed a bit.
