Dume sound like a knockoff of Dune.Bedinsis said:Is it just me or is Yahtzee's pronunciation of "Doom" a bit odd?
It sounds like he's saying "Dume".
In his review of the game, he said he would call it Deum to distinguish it from the classic game of the same name.Bedinsis said:snip

If the VR system your friend had was of the PC variety, you could try playing something like a Source engine game, which I believe all have "VR support" in the sense that if you plug a headset in, they will render in proper 3D but the controls remain the same. That should give you the best idea of whether you can stomach traditional movement controls in VR.Cold Shiny said:I've only used VR one time, at my friend's house, and I am still trying to figure out why they can't do full motion. Like I get that it can make you dizzy, but what if its just played sitting down, and they don't allow you to move too fast? Are there any VR games that give you full range of motion? Do people say they are horrible?
I just feel like the teleporty thing is not using VR to its full extent.
Well, don't I feel old remembering VR rigs in arcades back in the 90's! Those things did have full range of motion, but they were expensive as balls and too impractically big for most gamers' houses, unless they were filthy rich. Like their dad was a dotcom tycoon.Cold Shiny said:I've only used VR one time, at my friend's house, and I am still trying to figure out why they can't do full motion.

You should give it a shot. Full movement games are the ones most responsible for motion sickness, but I think a majority of people do fine, or can get used to it after some shorter play sessions. There are also plenty of cool games where you don?t move around in game unless you move IRL, which should t make anyone sick.Canadamus Prime said:I still don't think I could get past the motion sickness part of VR, but I have yet to try it so I don't know.
Can we make VR to games that actually deserve it? Like Metroid Prime, or the Theif games, or Half-Life?Arnoxthe1 said:Does Yahtzee know Serious Sam VR is a thing?
Well for the most part the short-hop system is itself the workaround. A lot of games have options for smooth turning and regular ol' analog stick movement (including VFR, if you look in the options menu), but the problem is that unless you have spent hours conditioning yourself first or don't have a functioning inner ear it tends to make people nauseous very fast.Johnny Novgorod said:When will VR finally work around the teleporting style of movement?
The current beta version of Half-Life 2 on Steam has VR support, you can find instructions for how to get it working on Reddit. I get really bad juttering when I play it, which brings out the pukes really fast, so I can't anymore, but I've seen a few reports of people getting a smooth experience, so it might still be worth trying.Samtemdo8 said:Can we make VR to games that actually deserve it?

Motion sickness in VR tends to only apply to VR experiences with unsynced motion between the users physical perspective and their visual perspective.Canadamus Prime said:I still don't think I could get past the motion sickness part of VR, but I have yet to try it so I don't know.
There IS (technically) a VR version of Half-Life 2. And, last I'd heard, there's a fan-made VR version of Half-Life 1 on the way. There're also games like The Gallery, which is sort of a blend of Myst and Thief.Samtemdo8 said:Can we make VR to games that actually deserve it?
