Skyrim VR |OT| Take a Coffee Table to the Knee
- Thread starter CKOHLER
- Start date
I jumped off the greybeards mountain and fell unobscured to my death. I have no fov filters on so maybe that's why
Aaaaand bought.
Is it a little weird that my interest in most VR games peaks when I find out you can do things like jump off of high surfaces or kill yourself with your in-game weapons (ala Farpoint)?
Fascination with death is very common in humans. That's why a lot of us like true crime stories about serial killers and stuff.
But no harm done in VR, it's all make pretend. :P
How does VR work? Does it display what you see on a screen? Want to see if t would be fun to do as a group.
I'm not really feeling this game. It simply feels like I'm playing Skyrim with a screen attached to my face. Is it that much better with move controller's?
Yeah, ps4 VR breakout box also sends a signal to the Tele so others can see what you are seeing.
Played a couple of hours with this now and it's great. My only complaint is why do Sony still refuse to launch Move controllers without joysticks on them it's an absolute no brainier at this point and would solve so many problems with movement if they added them.
What have you made me do.
Welcome good chap! Hope you enjoy it as much as i do.
Please don't tell me you spent more than $349...What have you made me do.
As others have said, it would be fantastic if the move controllers had analog sticks, but the work around here is amazing.
After a while it feels like second nature. If the game didn't have this movement and only had teleportation, I definitely would not have bought it.

So what exact settings are you guys using on the move controllers?
I have free movement on so that I press the left move button to move, and the other controller to move right or left, and the FOV filters are off.
I'm still struggling with the menu and picking up stuff. I guess I just gotta get used to it?

You'll get used to the menu thing, it took me a while too.
Also I'm using free movement and my turning radius is at about 15% since that seems to be the best way to always get a good facing position where I want.
One of the reasons I like Superhot VR. Want to go back to the menu… shoot yourself in the head. The reaction people give me when they ask how to do so is priceless.
Ah I haven't really messed with those sliders yet. Gonna be the first thing I play around with when I get back on. Thanks for the info!
Nah, I got it with the Black Friday offers here in the UK.
£249 for the Headset and Skyrim. The Move controllers I got separately.
Near-instant motion sickness for me. God dammit.
Played with DS4 with all settings left at default. Didn't even manage to
before I had to stop playing. I'm not new to VR at all. :( I haven't played an FPS since the RE7 demo, which I did finish but felt quite bad by the end.
I'll try Moves later and experiment with the settings a bit.

This is a know bug/feature. Basically, if you have a shield equipped and then put it away and then later raise your shield hand, it brings it out because it thinks you want to quickly defend.
I did feel a bit dodgy at first but after a few hours I'm fine. I still cant handle the sensation of falling though. Makes for a wierd feeling when walking down a cliff, almost like Im trying to be careful as fuck so I dont fall and feel like I want to puke.
Really want to at least finish Frozen Wild before diving into this, but y'all are making it really hard.
how exactly do you set it up so the opposite hand turns. only seen using the buttons to change in increments.
No I only played with DS4. I know the opening section is a bit hectic and I didn't want to be learning the controls until I got past it. I'll try Move-ing later. Or maybe tomorrow, since I feel like total shit now.
I had snap turning on but I was strafing a lot.
Where are you from? The new bundles are a bit pricey (basically back to original price) but you can find them used for $20-30 USD.
When they first came out for PS3 they were $60 each.
This was your mistake, then. The DS4's controls will whip you around compared to the Move controllers. They actually work well for the intro since it walks you through turning, moving, jumping, crouching, etc. though I'll admit I almost did what you did and went with DS4 first.
This is my concern, I don't want to drop a couple of hundred on something that may or may not induce me to chunder.
Really undecided...
What have you made me do.
LMAO! And once you start playing you'll be back on here convincing others to do the same thing!
I hope you're right. Moves do look more fun anyway, from what I've seen.
I've been playing VR happily for months and don't regret buying it at all. I'm really surprised how suddenly Skyrim fucked me up. If MultiverseMob is correct, switching to Moves will fix it. Otherwise it's teleportation misery for me.
Played this a little. Its cool.
But I am bummed it isn't just a mode in Skyrim SE or is at least cross save with it.
Seems like the ideal solution would be being able to easily jump between VR and standard skyrim for when VR is too much but I guess Bethesda need another $60 version of Skyrim on shelves.
Also for me I can do almost anything in VR and feel fine but looking over the edge of a cliff or tall building sets my vertigo off.
I can fly around in VR games fine but something about being on the edge gets to me. That still happened to me Skyrim.

Just finished the first dungeon - Bleak Falls Barrow - and I am completely in love. I'm playing with moves while standing (with occasional sitting sessions) and can't believe how incredible this experience is. My hats off to Bethesda for really putting the effort into this port and it's movement mechanics for the PSVR. I'm so glad that I decided to triple dip.
[edit - I was honestly a bit more lukewarm on it yesterday than I expected to be but that all disappeared once I started questing. Sooooooooo good!]

Really interesting post. What do you mean by decoupling exactly? I think I understand on a basic level.
Just "retailers" is all I've heard. So Best Buy, Walmart, amazon, Target, Gamestop, etc.
Awesome! You're making the wait harder. I played through that section in normal Skyrim a couple days ago. Can't wait to replay it in VR.
Haha yeah I'm scared of heights so I'm sure I'll feel the same. One of my most vivid memories of VR is slowly shuffling off the edge of the rooftop in Arkham VR and standing on thin air.
I was just about to ask how everyone is feeling while playing. I tend to get sick fairly quickly. RE7 allowed me to play in VR for about an hour at a time, which is a lifetime compared to other VR games I've tried. I really want to try this, but plopping down $60 for something that I might never touch again doesn't sound like a good idea. I did this with Farpoint. Played it 3 times, and couldn't go back, due to how sick it made me. I would love to have a demo, Bethesda. Hook me up.
Huh, their websites don't list those prices. Guess I'll have to check in store.
Well the deal doesn't start until tomorrow. So maybe the listings will change then.
I don't know which store will carry it, or whether there will be limited stock. I'm ordering through amazon if they carry it.
