VR Stuff advice.

I havent even installed it yet. I took it out of the box, had a little look. I set a few downloads going and am watching Inside no 9 with the wife. Ill probably have a little look in half hour or so :)

Oh yea I put some batteries in the controllers as well :)

Steam says im ready but im still downloading the rift software at the moment:

I even tried it for a bit! Wont lie felt sick as a dog after about 20 mins, I felt all disorientated so had to put it down but it was late and I was tired so i'm going to try again a little later today. I did have a look at a few different things and watching movies on a massive screen in VR could be fun so will give that a try.

I did the oculus intro with the little robot dude etc and that was pretty damn cool tbh. Plays super smooth and I didn't see any issues with tracking etc so yea so far im impressed with what im seeing, it's just my body isn't impressed.

Some titles are very vomit inducing, what was you trying that made you feel sick, it can take a while to get your VR legs :D

Some dodgey demo on the oculus store. Had zombie in the name but was shockingly poor. I'll have to post it on here bit it was one to avoid for sure.

The little robot intro though was pretty awesome and I didnt feel sick at all during that.
 
Right I'm downloading a few games, I have bought Onward and also Elven Assasin to have a little play with. I spent some time getting steam vr set up and also messing around in the little robot dudes room again just to see how I feel, about 40 mins of messing about jumping around like an idiot and I started feeling a little odd not sick just a bit disorientated, so have put it down until I have some proper games to play.

I guess it's not just me that gets this given some of the replies in here but in general how long a session can you really do in a vr game?

Right this is good to know, @SupraWez is spot on its the standing still while moving in some of the demos that's doing me in. My brain is clearly not advanced enough to know what is going on :D
 
Done, that one is downloading as well. Moss, Onwards and Elven Assasin then are the games to get me going.
 
Ok so just played that elven assisin for about an hour or more. Didnt make me feel sick, Didnt cause me any issues and is actually a lot of fun. Seriously the first time you shoot one of the dudes that turns around and throws an axe at your face :cool::D:D

Grabbed a Rift S the other day, such a fantastic piece of kit I remember playing on a vive a few years back and being blown away, now its happening all over again.

Been watching a lot on Pavlov VR, so I jumped straight into it and woah after about 30 minutes my head was gone definitely don't recommend it as a first experience the movement throws you right off. Read a few things online and seems you basically have to start with the basics and move up from there so been doing Superhot VR so much fun! Feel like Neo!

I played a bit more elven assasin today. Trying to beat the first level still :) Played for half hour or so no problems at all. The wife even had a go and enjoyed it. I'm going to try moss, the lab and onward today and see what they are like.

Somebody challenged me to a 1v1 dual in that eleven game. Easy way to work up a sweat. It's like a workout and playing a game at the same time.
