@JohntheRaptor personally, I loved the combat. The bugs at launch… that’s another story. Luckily I didn’t run into too many, but had a friend that ran into literally every game breaking bug possible. The best one was he’d get launched in the air and fall to his death when attempting alchemy haha.
Would be awesome to launch with a wireless PSVR2. Make an enthusiasts version that could connect to the HMD and either tether to the handheld or stream.
Again… this is wishful thinking and I’m likely a minority with these wishes haha.
@nessisonett maybe I missed it but I’d assume there’s a way/mode to keep leaders true to their cultures etc. like how there were ways to start a game on an earth map with civilizations in relative starting areas
@RubyCarbuncle it definitely needs a patch or two. I’ve got it up and running, but have tried two different Bluetooth set ups and the controllers are not agreeing with much even though one of the Bluetooth links I’m using is a supposedly approved by Sony one.
Super clear and beautiful image, but navigation is a bit wonky.
Managed to play some Subnautica, and Red Dead 2 (w Luke Ross Mod) last night. Red Dead is awesome in VR. It’s an absolute shame we likely would never get an official version.
@jruasap for me Bloodborne taught me how to play these games. I’m not as dexterous as some of these folks so I’d need all the help I can get. The game changer for me was don’t be greedy, not rushing and over leveling a bit before the next area.
Great game. Not too stressful, just don’t get too greedy collecting items when your O2 is low. Good story, fun gameplay, and quirky anime like presentation. Can’t recommend this game enough. I probably have 70hrs across steam and switch.
For most single player games I think there is a purist bunch that wants things initially untouched. No data mined info, no major exploits, no micro transactions.
Then there’s those players that would like to play a game but don’t have the time to grind for things. Though I’m against most mtxs other than cosmetics that don’t effect gameplay, I would be less opposed to mtx saayyyy 3-6 months after a game launched.
I get these devs need to make $$ as the price of a game hasn’t gone up to cover the cost of production and cost of living nowadays.
@Jaz007 I’d prefer most of the PSVR2 games to support regular controller use. Don’t feel like waving my arms around at the end of my day. Mostly care about visual immersion more than anything
Maybe they could just make a 60fps or locked 30fps a microtransaction [sarcasm font]
The frame rate is pretty bad. Still enjoying it however. My only other gripe is some really bad pathing. Spent minutes waiting for some npcs I was following to get around a dead ogre.
Playing on PS5 So far so good MTX wasn’t even noticeable and not in your face. Though I don’t like that it’s an option I think the reaction is overblown.
Biggest gripe is the frame rate which is pretty bad in my opinion. Mess with your eyes bad.
@PerpetualBoredom before digital availability we all thought “oh if it was just digital they won’t have to pay for packaging, shipping, it’ll be better for the environment!, it’ll be so much cheaper!”
@Voltan agreed… though I go through spurts. Where I’ll play it every day for a game… then I just don’t want to be waving my arms around and switch to something else.
Wish devs would always support regular controller input. Sometimes I just want the visual immersion at the end of the day.
That being said I wish there was a bit more in the pipeline as well as a solid media player at this point.
People seem to forget its niche and the pandemic. That and there’s plenty of regular games to play. Never expected VR to replace regular gaming. Just be an addition.
@maybemaybemaybe the first one on pcvr was amazing. Brought the nervousness of the ocean to a whole other level. Hopefully they consider it. I think Below Zero was a little too beefed up to consider for VR at the time, but perhaps they would consider this new one for PSVR2
Really a shame… I’m very happy with PSVR2 thus far, but feel like they shot themselves in the foot having it tethered.
Makes sense why Quest sold better. Everywhere I’d go I’d see stacks of it on the wall, it’s a standalone, cheaper investment for people, and a more thriving ecosystem.
Maybe Sonys next iteration will be portable/untethered and allow for game streaming. I know they had patents for the tech
This is straight up criminal. Blockchain tech is available to correct this and prove digital ownership across mediums. Class action lawsuit against all involved in a few years.
Always figured digital sales should be cheaper and it never really amounted to that.
That being said
Spending $10-20 at an arcade in the 80’s wasn’t a big deal and nowadays you get days upon days of entertainment from a $60 purchase. Plus devs/employees deserve the money.
@Kevw2006 I thought I had read something at some point but couldn’t find it. Seemingly no actual versatile and supported browser. I vaguely remember something opening up when viewing an EULA but couldn’t navigate back to it.
Wonder if anyone’s tried accessing game pass through it?
Id be more for digital media if there was some universal blockchain record of it. So companies wouldn’t be able to just end your access to it. Across the board. Maybe one day

Re: PS5 Fans Think Sony's Accidentally Leaked a Wireless PSVR2 Headset
Sony might be opting to open up PSVR2 to platforms developments.
If they cant support it through their own IPs then perhaps the move to pc was the first indicator of opening it to support from other platforms.
Seems like a decent strategy to not entirely give up on it.
Re: Poll: Would You Buy PS5 Pro If It Was Cheaper?
No physical drive built in is the deal breaker for me.

@Rjak I heard there’s a way. Sorry I have no link or anything for you, but I’ve heard it’s doable.
Would be nice to have an Xbox that has that capability natively however.
Re: Poll: Are You Sold on PS5 Pro?
No disc drive is a major deal breaker for me in addition to price. Was all for it until those tid bits of news
If I knew they had several PSVR2 AAA 40+hr games in the pipeline that were going to somehow benefit then maybe if there was a disc drive in it too

Re: It Took PS5 Longer Than PS4 to Pass 4 Million Units Milestone in the UK, But There's Context
PS4 was my first Sony console so correct me if I’m wrong, but
Games were also made to work on ps4 with ps5s launch versus
PS4 games weren’t made to work on ps3 right?
I could see that leading to a slower adoption as well.
The pandemic still feels like this weird hole in time but it’s ripples haven’t stopped rolling.

Re: Talking Point: How Do You Feel About the PS5 Pro?
I figured a mid gen upgrade is akin to a PC GPU and or storage upgrade
Even PSVR/PSVR2, when they came out, it was simply me investing in a second screen that freed up the tv and could do cool things. At the very least
So $400-$600 or so for either isn’t out of the question. I certainly spend less than upgrading my pc overall. Granted a pc can do a lot more.

Re: Rumour: Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag Remake Is Now In Active Development
