It is... although it varies greatly from person to person.
Teleporting: impossible to get sick.
Continuos movement (translation only): nauseating but rather easy to get used to.
Continuous movement (translation + rotation): horrible... even more so if there's acceleration.
The less your brain receives incongruous data (between your eyes and your innear ears), the less likely it is you're going to feel nauseous.
Been putting some more time in Arkham Knight and I'm really getting into it now.
I feel that the silent protagonist approach doesn't work very well here though, maybe because it's a car. Fortunately the supporting cast is decent, especially Batman.
The game's art direction is a bit too dark, I think visually the game can get a bit monotonous.

It's even worse today. Thanks to your help I could see that fps are mostly 60 but I have latency spikes up the wazoo. 400ms at times.
I wonder if it's my internet or the servers. Shit is not really playable at the moment.
What suprises me about all this VR talk is that when I wished for and got the PSVR for christmas 2 years ago I did not know about motion sickness and that you could get dizzy/pukey in VR, never heard about that side of VR. So I started playing a bunch of games and never got sick, I was also very dissapointed a lot of games only had teleportation as I wanted to play as I regularly do.
The only thing that has ever gotten me dizzy, not even sick, is snap smooting or whatever it's called, the opposite of snap turning.
Continous locomotion never got me any sort of sick or dizzy and not until long after getting my Rift did I hear about VR sickness.

Regarding Half-Life, are you guys going to move and shoot simultenously? Like, fire a monster to your right with your right-hand, without looking at it, while you side-step diagonally to the left in a cover, and look at the ceiling in case there is a trap? Moving in 3 different directions: head direction up, hand direction right, and body direction forward and left.
Or is it more likely that most people are going to play it as a PnC shooter, which means being static while aiming? I think that is why I have reminiscences of The House of the Dead while watching the videos, as I do not get to see the simultaneous possibilities. Maybe that is possible, but that would not render well for the spectator of the videos.

Nice for Ori 2, but also that LotR card game which I wanted to try.

Yep. Like, I love John Wicking myself through Boneworks.
Anything else than what you describes n the quoted paragraph is stale and boring. VR gives me freedom to do things I can't do in flatscreen gaming so I will try out everything.
Im 95% sure that the way that was played in the IGN and Valve videos was inherently to showcase VR slowly. Actually having people to play the game will look different when you watch them on YT. But I could be wrong.
Yep. :fearrat:
We would need some third-person view for the spectators, as in Beat Saber.
The latest video got me worried about the spectating by the way, because of fast movements of the head when the player is scanning the environment.
Well, so, I think I'm done with Half-Life:Alyx content prior release, I have already seeing everything I needed to be hyped as heck, Game looks STUNNING and yes, it's going to be big for VR and big for the industry.
And let's say I'm a bit down in mood for different reasons, first one, I don't know if I was right about Division 2's theory coming to Steam the week from 16th to 22th, here's hope but IDK.
Also, days really go slow without news, I mean, we are getting tons of amazing pieces of news but still feels like a really slow year, right? anyway, we will see how things go.

I always thought those character models were nightmare fuel.
Not sure what they were thinking. Mixing elongated cartoon style with realistic textures just doesn't work. It's like those photo-realistic Mario shots.
Sure it's stylized, but man is it off-putting.
Seems like Hare Brained Schemes is done with Battletech now.
I'm excited to see what they do next. I really enjoyed their Shadowrun games. Since they are owned by Paradox now, maybe they could make something in the World of Darkness.
i quite enjoyed this one. Id recommend to anyone who may have been interested in this one. was a cool mystery trying to figure out who or what is going onThe episode 1 is free.

Alright OT title stolen right from EdwardTivrusky !:D So let's get started, talk about food you love, ask about food you want to make! So let me start, the easiest food to cook HAS TO BE Couscous right? Boil water in a kettle and pour it over the Couscous and wait awhile and its done.:D

Aah yeah, Division 2 patched and thankfully it is the regular size after patch so I can continue to play.
Ditto, I really quite enjoyed it. That said it starts off stronger than it finishes.
This is a weird implementation considering you can't buy EPs 2-5 separately (so now I'll have to look for a key on third party stores unless Focus Home fixes it one way or the other).The episode 1 is free.

Started playing Sekiro after finishing Code Vein. I really, really like the combat vs. humans, it's very satisfying, but so far every fight with non-standard-humans has been mostly unfun (ogre, chicken things, etc.). Maybe that'll change as I get more options to fight with.
Also been playing a ton of Trials of Fire and it's fantastic. It as a wonderfully unique take on deck builders and tactical RPGs in one, and really offers a ton of variety so far with how you can build out your party and such. Only complain I have so far is the food tends to be feast or famine really quick, it's a bit too random when you see more and that makes it feel really iffy to explore as much as you could.
It's still in Early Access but if anyone was on the fence or waiting for it to be complete, there's already 7 out of 8 characters in the game and 3 quests you can do (I don't know how many more are coming, but with difficulty settings and different party formations / builds you have tons of replay there). Also there's daily runs.

I really like Assassin's Creed too, and I don't wanna miss this upcoming one especially if they stick with the RPG path like Odyssey and Origins, but...
You all really seem too sure about the idea of Ubisoft staying out of Steam, we will have to wait and see 
You're lucky! When I first tried full locomotion in Skyrim VR, it was indeed nauseating me. Boneworks however did it much better.
But I can't help but long for a more immersive way of playing. Walking a few steps within a VR game is really cool - until you hit the chaperone/guardian borders, taking you out of the immersion. Maybe some day VR treadmills will be a thing
The other thing I never quite liked about VR is the controls. If oculus brings their hand tracking to the Rift S, I'd be very interested in that.
But anyway, VR is still an amazing way to play games, even with its natural limitations.
Just a question of "when", not "if", surelyYou all really seem too sure about the idea of Ubisoft staying out of Steam, we will have to wait and see
I yeah, sort of love Assassins Creed and want them on steam even though I own some of them on Uplay simply because they give cards and have steam achievements
Im sure ubi will be back for assassin's creed this year
I cannot download it - a window pops up ("You have to buy first: PS Plus"). It also says unavailable on the store page itself.
Edit: same problem on the web version of the PS Store:

That's really weird, maybe it depends on store country? Im in Norway and it works here without Plus.
German PSN seems to be the only store with the Plus requirement. Well that's 30 minutes of my evening wasted trying to figure this out, does not help that navigating the store on the console is so slow...
that is VERY odd indeed. I tried to add the demo to my account (and I dont even have a PS4), and it worked without any problem. Strange that Germany would have such a restriction.
I read a bit of Master Magistrate* and the localization seems to be quite good:
The English felt natural and I didn't spot any typos.
* Not a lot, mind you, since I didn't want to actually start on yet another VN before finishing the ones I am currently reading.
It was the same with PT and Resident Evil, i think it's got to do with age ratings

In Japan it is the same, though not a PS+ requirement, but rather you need a credit-card on file for any CERO Z titles.
So it wouldn't surprise me. FFVII doesn't really seem like something that would get a high rating though?
