To be fair I do try my hardest to get into things like this and end up being my own worst enemy for itGood luck for later in the game. That's nothing.
I've been told by the mrs to add that I squealed like a little girl when I first encountered the cockroaches in the kitchen, and I stubbed my toe on a table pretty badly giving Mia a victory kick on the stomach after the first encounter
Oh and she may now have a blackmail video of me jogging on the spot whenever I run in the game, complete with nearly falling over the first time I went down the attic stairs doing that.
This sucks actually.
Has she had a go yet?Didn't you read? He's been busy playing the game, she probably just took care of herself.
Same as me
VR is going to give people heart attacks! I really wanted to get Alien Isolation too (still do want to play it tbh) but I know I wouldn't be able to play more than 5 minutes at a time.Same as me
I would stuggle just normally, in VR no chance
I couldn't even get past 10 mins of that game outlast. There is a jump scare early on involving a wheelchair. I just turned it off and never played it again
Yeah Alien Isolation would be awesome.
Yeah Alien was a no go too. A 10 hour game with constant dread would give me a stroke.
Yea they need to patch that game, perfect for it. Heard good things from those that managed to play it all the way through on Oculus. My first VR experience was Alien Isolation at EGX, it sold me on the tech.
Yeah, but she got much further into the game before we got VR so she hasn't had any genuine scares yet. Bitch
I hope she sees this postYeah, but she got much further into the game before we got VR so she hasn't had any genuine scares yet. Bitch
Also she sits on the settee playing which is the wrong way to do it!
Bigger scares for you on the way.She's at work right now, and I took the day off to get some paperwork done...I hope she sees this post
:lol; Sounds like a good day! I've seen you can buy a RE7 candle on amazon too, gives you the smells. Do it!!!She's at work right now, and I took the day off to get some paperwork done...
...and I've already looked over at the poxy headset. Dare I play it in a completely empty house though? And who tells me when I've wandered too close to something? She'll come home to me curled up and crying like a little girl whilst the house is on fire
For Re7 alone, if you have the cash, yeah
It is RE7 which is tempting me most tbh, I don't want to play it normally and want to wait to VR it, as I want all the suspense and surprises. However like you I am not sure how much Sony are going to push this, infact, I'm not sure any of the guys doing VR are going to keep it going, could be another 3d, everyone promises the world then just abandons it. Could just be another gimmick, people didn't like 3d due to the glasses/headaches, and this basically has the same prolem, giving people headaches and sickness (wusses) and having a thing stuck on your face.For Re7 alone, if you have the cash, yeah
However I do remain skeptical about just how much Sony are going to support this and if we get many more games like RE7 to fully justify it. On the plus side it's already proven that unlike the eye and Kinect systems, it can have full on AAA games work well, but it's worrying Sony haven't really pushed any future titles as of yet and the lack of units/move controllers out there at the moment shows they haven't really pushed into manufacturing as much as they could have. So in all honesty I struggle to recommend a purchase now, unless you can spare the cash, then RE7 really is worth experiencing full on
Neither myself or my missus (and she wears glasses) experienced any kind of sickness tbh. I get it does happen, but I can't see it lasting. In fact I was convinced she'd feel it as she doesn't like the 3D in the 3DS, but she played VR for a good couple of hours straight with no issues. It is comfortable and you do quickly forget you are wearing it tbh, apart from the poxy heavy cable that is, plus unlike the PC versions, you can play from the settee which is cool. But yeah, it needs games.
It's made really for VR. Feels a lot more RE in that, it has to be said. But yeah the story and lack of RE touches like more descriptions, and of course the voice at the start, kind of make it seem more in the universe rather than a direct game.
The Evil Within was shite, this isn't. Though in terms of game type, it depends what about TEW you didn't like specifically.
I thought that TEW was really dull and the combat was irritating. There was a mission in a village where a massive zombie thing with a chainsaw followed you about and killing it was not fun and frustrated me to no end, when I got to the mission where it wanted me to defend some ally I gave up as defending other characters from dying is a pet hate of mine.
It is dull and frustrating, you are right there!
I don't have any experience with VR so I'm just guessing, but isn't that a bit dangerous? Don't you lose your balance or run into things? I'm on the fence, I absolutely love horror games and playing it in VR sounds like a great experience, but I can't see myself playing this standing around my living room blind, it just seems risky. On the other hand, I saw a video of someone playing it sitting down and then you need that awkward right stick movement, which doesn't seem ideal at all. Perhaps sitting in in a rotating office chair would work, but then turning around would take ages. A bit like those good old tank controls of the original games.
I don't mind slow and methodical. I've beat games like MGS5 and am doing well at Dishonored 2 which are somewhat slower games. I prefer solving puzzles in games as opposed to full on combat as I mostly suck at fighting anyway.
No, you don't physically move around, you just stand up on the spot which lets you move around 360 and does away with the need for that jerky right stick. It works so much better, because you can lean through windows, peer through doorways (there's a reason you can slightly open doors in RE7 that doesn't make much sense until you play the VR version) and basically check much more out. It really is great fun.
Well RE7 doesn't have a huge amount of puzzle solving, but then again it's not rammed with combat either.
I know you don't physically walk around, but this being a horror game I can imagine you instinctively jerk away from jump scares. Are you playing VR on a normal PS4 or a pro by the way? I think if I'd go VR I'd also buy the pro. The combination would set me back 800 EUR (fortunately already got the old ps4 camera), which is a lot of money but not necessarily a stumbling block if it's really worth it.
The only time I actually moved is when I kicked a table for real whilst kicking a corpse of the first guy you kill in the game! Oh and I tend to jog on the spot like an idiot when I run in the game, but believe me it really does add to the motion sense. It's hard to explain, but you have to play it to understand. My gf plays it sitting down though and it still works great, I just like to get the maximum I can out of stuff like this. But no, you don't need to wander anywhere, it doesn't work like that, you just lean and turn around a lot It does help we have an L-shaped big settee that I use as my guide (as sometimes landing pad) though 
I folded, ordered the Pro and VR, along with Resi Evil and Driveclub VR. Even got myself the licenced PS VR headset and a couple of move controllers just for the sake of it.
We have the pro btw, I've not played it with a standard PS4. It's hard to recommend the VR by itself right now as anything other than a fancy purchase if you have spare cash, as the future is unclear. However, that being said, it does work brilliantly, even to the point my otherwise tight with money GF is letting me look seriously at getting an Occulus Rift or Vive this year.
I'm an absolute disaster at impulse buying. I doubt I'll regret it though.I haven't tried Drive club yet, and don't get my move controllers until tonight. But in terms of the pro, Resi 7 and VR, you shouldn't regret itI folded, ordered the Pro and VR, along with Resi Evil and Driveclub VR.

It's actually pretty intuitive, but precision aiming requires a steadiness that I don't quite possess yet.Seriously, try jogging on the spot when you click the run button, especially down stairs
Yeah the physical reset is pretty much what I do, that's the worst bit about the design that poxy cable hangs and adds to the weight. I might find a way to clip it to my jeans or something.@Redlambs Do you never have an issue with the headset cable twisting around your feet when playing it standing up? I'm still trying to figure out what's the best way too handle this. I usually try to untwist myself and then correct the direction using the right stick from time to time, a sort of physical reset. It's not ideal but less risky than trying to step over the cable in hectics scenes. Also, aiming a gun with my head will take some time.
The only truly annoying thing with VR in this game is the jarring switch in viewpoint during certain scenes. One moment you're staring at a door where an enemy is about to burst through and after a short cutscene you're suddenly staring in a completely different direction. Extremely disorienting.
It's a whole new level in VR. You'll likely do what I do, after playing Alien Isolation, and double your playing time by peering round every corner and through every crack in wooden beams
Totally. I'll be looking at every asset from every angle.It's a whole new level in VR. You'll likely do what I do, after playing Alien Isolation, and double your playing time by peering round every corner and through every crack in wooden beams
It's really well done, they have gone the extra mile to model and texture everything. I keep trying to catch them out.Totally. I'll be looking at every asset from every angle.
