Playstation VR Discussion Thread

Yeah the game situation isn’t great at the moment. I’d even settle for 360 videos from YouTube. I thought they were good with the PSVR1 but quality was bad. Then VR2 comes out the feature is removed completely. Even been able to play your own 360 videos would be a good move.

Pity they don’t make more of that feature it was great to be able to view other countries, museums, ancient sights stuff like that.

Ya I have it but sure i'd s**t played out it before came to psvr2😅

Damn. Still no media player at all?

A media player/sideload app called RAD was supposed to be available shortly after launch for a subscription. Wonder why its taking so long to get it sorted...

Edit: From RAD discord apparently:

Ok. Maybe Sony worried about adult content then.

Sony filed 2 trademarks relating to Astrobot for the US and EU markets in late August. Something is happening. They just being very quiet about it. And "insider" called Shpeshall_Nick claims the first Rescue Mission is being ported. I've no doubt we'll get more. But I wants it now.

Picked up the Moss 2 game bundle for €22, downloaded, played and finished the first one last night. Great little game, if a bit short at just over 4 hours. Started the second one tonight, supposed to be about twice the length so looking forward to the rest of it.

Moss is a great example of a VR game, rather than a game in VR. It's unique and lovingly crafted, and looks amazing on VR2. These are the kind of VR games (along with Rescue Mission) I prefer the most, unique experiences that just wouldn't be right on 2D.

But I can only get 45-70 minutes before I have to take it off for a bit, get a pain in my forehead that is immediately relieved when I take off the headset. Maybe its a bit front heavy or I still haven't figured out the best position.

Still don't know why we don't have Point Blank on VR. Game is perfect for it. Oh memories!

Exactly my feeling on vr. I can appreciate the shooters and horrors but they just don't do it for me at all, I can't wait to get stuck into Moss 2 this week and hopefully we get a release date for Ven soon too.

I've seen people on reddit recommending wearing a beanie for anyone who suffers pain with the headset. I'm going to give it a go myself because it definitely gets uncomfortable around the hour mark for me.

@paulie13 got them for his Quest 3

Nice one, will definitely splash out on them. Install is a clip on/off, very smart, was worried how big of a job it would be. Time for a quick checkup and bring the information needed to the optician so I can be right. And at only €70, considering how much I pay Specsavers for a new pair, very affordable. End of the month payday! Anyone know what the Insert Prism (+€70) is?

Played a couple of hours of Moss Book 2, just as good as the first. Won't get back to it for a few days, but looking forward to playing the rest. Again, a great VR game.

IIRC, the prism are adjustments that are required for double vision sufferers, so if you've never been diagnosed with such an eyesight issue, you're very unlikely to need it. Likewise, I wouldn't bother with their exclusive blue-light diffusers and what not.

I do note that most suppliers charge extra beyond a certain prescription, which I'm sure is the normal with normal Opticians anyway.......probably big bug-eyed ones, but it's a reasonable price to not have to faff about with specs. If sharing the headset, it's just a simple matter of unclipping the adapters, and then just popping them back on for yourself. Come with a normal glasses case for safe-keeping.

Sounds obvious, but be sure to double check your entries on the website. Should only have 6 fields to fill in, but if you're like myself, one eye is significantly worse than the other so not a good idea to mix up left and right.

Propagation : Paradise hotel looks great .

Walking Dead has an easy difficulty. Didn't know that. Does it do away with any of the tedious gathering / crafting stuff? I got fed up with that but must give it another look.

Advice needed.

I've 3 teenagers who have asked for a ps vr2 for Christmas. Wondering what games would be good to put with it.

They play a lot of terraria, hollow knight, star wars, and the eldest is into FPS.

Or are there accessories that can go with it?

Apologies for the questions, my gaming knowledge ended with the ps3.

The three teenagers scenario got me thinking. Are there any couch co-op / local multiplayer games on PSVR2?

PSVR had a few good ones to get people involved.

All I can find at the moment is Runner. 1 player wearing the headset drives the motorbike another player shoots.
