Elite Dangerous is amazing for sense of scale. But you really need a flight stick to enjoy it.

Lone Echo is also a great space game. The space ones give you the expansive experience that you can’t experience anywhere else.

Google Earth is pretty fun too.

Oohh this is good I was hoping for some recommendations guys...thank you smilies :) And google earth?? I didn't see that...lol

My son and I were trying to find very scary games and we decided on dreadhalls...meh it's okay...

He started telling me something about steam games having the scariest games...but I guess you need to do some thing special ie set up I don't know.

Which ones do you guys recommend?

If its an oculus quest you can use program called sidequest to change the hardware settings, resolution, capture rate, etc to get better framerates and load homebrew games/apps.

Re: Who here has an Oculus?
Hey guys...I got an Oculus for Christmas and while it is very cool...(I've played Beat Saber, rollercoasters, and Everest VR) and a few others namely Dash Dash and Dreadhalls...

Those two make me sick after only playing for like 5 minutes...Does the motion sickness ever go away? I've played like 5 times now and it seems like I can go a little longer than before but then it kicks in...

But it doesn't' when I'm on the roller coaster or Beat Saber...well perhaps a tiny bit...but I can get through it.

Overall though a very interesting experience and life like. I really enjoyed the Everest VR and plan to buy the Egypt one later today :)
 Quoting: Angelseverywhere


I got one for Christmas as well. I am a martial artist and train every day , I too experienced some vertigo afterwards . I have the saints and sinners game and have put in a few 2 hour sessions followed by some saber swinging in Vader Immortal. For the first day or two I felt some noticeable discomfort directly after playing . It wasnt long , maybe a couple minutes . I don’t get uneasy anymore directly after , but I have noticed a floating feeling while walking every once in a while . There can be some neck issues over time too ! The headsets are heavy and can cause some soreness near the top of your spine and base of your skull.
What an amazing system though ! I LOVE the swordplay in Vader immortal and am looking forward to purchasing some HEMA style games . Swords , shields and spears , sounds fun to me !
 Quoting: Hazmat420


Oh wait! I missed this...yes...I have noticed that floating feeling as well. Or the sense of like your still in VR even like a half an hour after. blink Perhaps that just newbies though lol Yeah that headset is not the lightest. Definitely can be improved in a few areas...which over times I am sure they will work it out. However, I am very happy with it. Thanks for your post Hazmat!

Outside of games, what is it like watching movies?

Can you get that "giant screen" experience, is it too pixelated, can you only watch 3d movies or does it work for 2d Movies too...

And now hearing there is a program where you choose the song and the music notes come at you in space - in beautiful color - and you swat them away. It's a dance workout!

Re: Who here has an Oculus?
I am not sure if this has been said or not .... but sometimes it is as simple as placing a fan in front of you, blowing air over your body.

It allows you to start tricking the biology to accepting VR.

a little at a time until you develop a tolerance ... just like everything is in life

Re: Who here has an Oculus?
I recently bought the Occulus Rift S. I can play both Occulus games and Steam VR games.

Half Life Alyx is absolutely amazing game.

Microsoft Flight Sim 2020 in VR is pretty cool too. Being able to fly over your own neighborhood and look out the window to see your house is fun.

Skyrim VR is a must.

For the Occulus store:

Real Tennis is fun, but hard. Be careful. I ran into a table trying to return a serve, stupid...

Golf Club VR is also hard but feels like real golfing.

You can play the Medal of Honor game too if you have a decent gaming system. The requirements listed are too high. I have a i7 9700 cpu and a GTX1660ti vedo card, 16GB of RAM: game runs just fine.

I've honestly never experienced any motion sickness while using mine, oddly enough. My whole life I've suffered from migraines, motion sickness, car sickness, vertigo, etc. I felt a little woozy once when I tried a roller coaster, but mostly it's fine. They suggest just closing your eyes for a bit or just taking it off for a while.

I was pretty blown away at how good it was the first time I used it, as I thought it would be gimmicky.
