If you actually want a viable discussion on this game, you’re better off posting this into a virtual reality community as the comments there won’t devolve into salty sour grapes that they couldn’t / wouldn’t play it since “vR iS uh GImAuCk”

Yeah, that would be wise, but by the same token since Lemmy is a bit smaller the amount of people with things to say in those communities would be smaller overall too.

And, lets review where we are: Valve is supposedly making a new Half-Life that will reportedly be both flat and VR.

One thing that could be interesting to discuss is character creators and general restrictions on what a player avatar can and can’t do.

For example:

  • Require all player + npc relationships to be hetero.
  • Have most relationships be hetero, but sprinkle one or two bi characters for spice.
  • Lock certain clothing options or body styles to specific genders.
  • Tie the player’s pronouns and voice to their gender.
  • Tie the player’s gender to what’s in their pants.
  • Restrict genetal options to a boolean “male” or “female” (intersex people exist).
  • Force the player to only be in a monogamous relationship.
  • Allow the player to be polyamous but inexplicably punish them for being too poly (Looking at you, Stardew).

I’ve been playing Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel recently on PC and despite being relatively action heavy it’s 99% left hand (WASD + Q + space)

Most my time with Crypt of the Necrodancer was during a hand injury. It’s of course a pretty intense game though, so it’s not for everyone.

I played it last year. It was certainly interesting, though it showed me the challenges of VR games. Before, I always hated the idea of using the teleport feature because it seems cheesy. However, after several tries without it, I can say it’s necessary. You end up feeling very nauseous otherwise. But, as a player you’re just way less capable than non-VR games. You can’t move around as easily and so you can’t take on as many enemies or maneuver as easily around the map. In most encounters with enemies, you can only fight a max of maybe 3, before you start to feel overwhelmed. Even 1 is usually enough to feel stressed and when those saw drones fly at you, you’ll panic and possibly yank a cable or get disoriented and bump into something in the real world. Crouching behind cover and shooting is pretty cool though — possibly the most immersive part.

Sabata11792,

I had the opposite problem where teleporting makes me dizzy. I only used it as a last resort and can’t survive games that don’t give you the option to not use it.

MolecularCactus1324,

You’re able to tolerate moving around without teleport? I have a pretty strong stomach and never get sick on boats or planes, but that just completely fucks me up. I can tolerate it for about 20 minutes, but after that I’m ready to hurl. With teleport I could play for an hour or more.

Lv_InSaNe_vL,

I’m not the person who originally replied but locomotion is significantly more comfortable than teleports. The teleporting makes me dizzy and messes with my sense of balance and orientation.

I also don’t get motion sick in any non-vr setting either.

ultranaut,

The trick is to stop as soon as you start to feel nausea. If you keep doing that your body starts to adapt to VR and eventually you won’t get nausea except in really extreme experiences.

Sabata11792,

I think I’m just use to the movement style and teleporting is a bit jarring and makes me stumble. It takes a good dozen hours to stop getting motion sick in general. Now I can do it drunk.

Blackmist,

It took me a long time to get used to VR locomotion.

I still really can’t handle smooth turning at all, but using VRChat a lot (where the teleport movement is terrible) made me get used to the left stick movement at least which is really all you need.

Does the PS3 version include the secret Michael Jackson easter egg for your bed?

Not as far as i’m aware. The bed does put me inside blocks though (or at least the oldest version on my disk does)

One Finger Death Punch and One Finger Death Punch 2

What more is there to say? The reason why that works perfectly is already in the title of the game.

Caution: this game is addictive

JackRider, do games w One-handed games?

For the cozy-game friend, I’d say A Short Hike might be a solid pick. It’s super chill, no stress, and you can get away with playing it mostly with just the left stick and a button or two — easy to remap if needed. Spiritfarer could also work, though it might take a little tweaking depending on how much movement they can handle.

Ben Heck made a couple of one handed controllers a few years ago. One of these controllers might open up more games than remapping buttons.
