Slight dizziness after long sessions in which I'm using "slide" based in game movement. That's about it.

Motion sickness isn't a meme it's real and you can't push through it , the moment you feel it you have to stop unless you want to feel that way for the rest of the day.

Yes I'm dying
from having too much money

I'm mostly immune to the negative side effects now after having it so long but when I first got VR I would get some dizziness from racing games.

I play 3-6 hours from time to time since 2016. No dizzy or motion sickness cause I wasn't born with shit genes

>Phone based VR Box which has no way of detecting body motion or even head motion beyond turning

This is very clearly staged

It is, but this is Yea Forums so out-of-context shitposting is required

I never got the motion sickness (had HTC VIVE) but after using it for a couple of hours and then taking it off there is a genuine slight disconnect from the world around you. Maybe I'm just mental but that's how I felt.

Think this will be a bigger problem once VR gets better, more immersive and people are spending more time in it.

Pretty much everyone who has VR goes through this it comes up in most threads

The Alien Isolation mod gives some people motion sickness.

I still think its impossible to judge VR without trying it for hours. It's a complete difference when watching it on youtube versus experiencing it yourself

Just pressure on my face because of my glasses pressing down on my nose too hard.

Who the fuck made this I don't want more desktopper plebs around

I sometimes wonder how the VRChat devs feel about their game becoming Second Life for weebs.

Is it just me or does that look like a face? Like the controlers look like eyes and the headgear is a mouth or big nose

An adverse side effect was feeling like a creepy cunt after realising 90% of the people who I was played rec room with were like 8.

one of the best/ most polished VR games and I could never play again because I felt wierd playing with mostly kids (which is a thing with VR that's much stronger than a normal game)

Unrelated question, but does the Vive Pro work with Windows 7? I've heard conflicted reports. I know the original Vive works just fine with it.

Genes can't make you immune to vertigo. All pilots can, and likely experience some vertigo during instrument conditions at some point in their career. Pilots generally have to be healthier individuals as well.

How the hell does anyone get used to analog movement in VR? Makes me feel motion sick right away.

Just do it until you adjust, faggot

I cant use it for more than 6h a day without a 14-16h brake until next usage or my eyes will hurt, even blinking regularly doesnt help.

>purchased Odyssey+ because of last shill thread and the 300 dollar deal
>have to import it from some online dealer because non murrican and Samsung won't accept non us credit card
>ETA 23th April
Fuckkkk
It better be worth it

Some things that I have heard, but can not verify since I never got sick.
>Fan blowing on you
>Vibrator behind your ear
>Practice balancing with your eyes closed
>Take it slow and don't try to force your way through it

>not lighthouse tracking
yikes
still, screen looks good at least

Walk in place so your head moves around. The fluid in your ears that acts as your sense of balance needs to move the same way you perceive yourself moving.

>mfw considering purchasing PSVR and Skyrim VR next month
How is it bros? Do I back out before I fall for the VR meme?

ayy I just got the acer one for $200 and it's arriving on monday
It's the cheapest "real" vr I could buy

everytime I die in VR I die in real life

its actually real life for pedophiles desu

prob will hear about the vr sex ring busts next year

Is the tracking that bad?
Most review I saw said it is serviceable.

My room isn't nearly big enough for all the tracking stuff anyway.
I'm more concern about screen quality which Odyssey+ seems to deliver the best beside pimax 5k 8k

The real world looks strange when you take it off, especially your hands. Nothing too bad, though it can be a bit rough when you're new to it.

I almost crashed my bike after using the Vive for a couple hours straight because I had this weird vertigo, like I was desyncing from reality. I can see longterm use taking a toll on your spatial cognitive functions.

Ive lost an untold number of hours to lewd overwatch sfm. I don't even play that game.

I dunno, I assume it's good but lighthouse is like fucking 1:1
Having that break or drift even rarely would be a big negative
O+ is probably still your best buy right now until Gen2 because of the good screen

Not really. For like the first week with VR I sometimes got very slight dizziness when playing fast-paced games like Serious Sam, but that's pretty much it. It went away quickly.

My company develops VR software. A while back, when Unity's VR support was in its infancy, a coworker was trying to take control of cameras that render to the headset, feeding in the tracking data himself. I was testing while he screwed around.

It was completely fucked- I had, at various times, transposed eyes, and eyes on my forehead and chin. About 5 minutes of that malarkey gave me powerful nausea and malaise for a couple hours.

so i spent a few minutes looking upw hat this is from. is it any good?

I suppose that's subjective. I like it.

Nausea on anything not optimized for VR free movement. I can play Pavlov for hours, but freemove in HHH is instavomit.

But let's not pretend this isn't happening in VRChat right now on a large scale

got a bit dizzy/sick when driving the ED rover on planets, but got used to it in like a week

you realize that more than half of the userbase don't use vr right?

Slight derealization coming out of it, things just felt weird. But it went away after 5 mins or so

Skyrim VR requires mods to be good so I wouldn't buy PSVR for that. It does have other really good games though, like RE7 and Astrobot

Is given me a headache spending more time than a couple hours but that doesn't happen as much anymore

Do you think this refutes my sentence in some way?

Having fun in a community that has kids (TF2 had a lot of squeakers) is not a big deal. Befriending them is the issue.

PSVR is big yikes but you're a wojakposter so you should get it

>and then taking it off there is a genuine slight disconnect from the world around you
It's actually due to your eyes. You get them stuck at a fixed focal point, and if you spend a couple hours in VR they get relaxed at that point. Taking the headset off afterwards your eyes will keep trying to stay at that point despite being able to focus anywhere. It's something your brain gets used to outside of the initial week of VR use and becomes a non-issue.

is it a VN? what's the balance of h-content to wordswordswords?

This, and also since I live alone I only wear t-shirt around the house.
I stand around kids with my dick out and sometimes I get uncomfortable. Then have to remind myself that they can't see me

The only one I'd consider mandatory really, is the 3d audio sound one. I don't know how the fuck they shipped Skyrim VR with such god awful audio positioning.

Motion sickness and dizziness. Really made me want to throw up.

Me too. I've owned a Rift for at least 1.5 years and I still get it. It's gotten slightly better but not much. I wanna play Onward so bad but I can't handle it at all.

However, any game with walk-in-place locomotion is 1000% better. I still feel sick after a long time but I can handle moving around in Hotdogs Horsheshoes and Hand Grenades with armswinger mode.

What is it like being a pukelet? Cripple.

The only time I've gotten motion sickness is when I walk across the room irl while using slide movement. I'd say VR is fun, but not worth it if the price is a huge concern for you. I probably play like an hour or two a week.

So can we agree on a verdict that the side effects are only minor and only happen to some people?

Of course I did.

Stop using a legacy OS

Well yeah that's why the VR community now hates "teleport only" where before they considered it a necessity

I get seasick every time I use one of those hellmachines.

one time while using vr i nutted irl but when i took the headset off the nut wasn't there

When Windows 10 allows me to pick and choose updates and doesn't force drivers down my throat, I'll move to it. Until then, no.

that's nuts

Name ONE VR game

>Onward
>Pavlov
>Beat Saber
>Superhot
are the games I play most of the time. I've recently been trying Zero Caliber. It's the first VR shooter I've played that has a single player campaign, but it's early access, so it's a little janky.

>No Elite:Dangerous or Dead Effect 2
ffs, forgetting actual full length VR games in favor of that casual shit

>he doesn't play pavlov
yikes!

Once after playing rec room laser tag and constantly crouching behind cover, I got super sore thighs the next day.
I also got motion sickness bad once from playing a game where you had to use the stick to turn your character.

one thing I've never seen anyone mention is that in some climates it'll get really uncomfortable and stuffy

Aside from paying a shitload of money for a few hours of novelty?

Said the poorfag.

Are you sure you really took the goggles off?
You’re still in the game.
WAKE UP.

WAKE UP!

I've been using mine for over a year now, so no.

After 7 hours of nonstop playing, yes. My hands didn't feel real at all to me afterwards.

that sounds cool

yeah but it's funny

Webms of this game never fail to entertain me greatly

My only experience with VR is PSVR with RE7 at my friend's place

Not sure if his configuration is right or not but it was so burry and left me unimpressed.
