@trashyfins@chomp.life yeah to actually play it as intended you seem to need finger tracking and all the fancy shit only the Index has, and that's a lot of money

@noiob @trashyfins i'm kinda peeved off that I put student loans towards a vive pre-order before it came out and didn't get a flagship game for it, just a bunch of repetitive tech demos instead. now index is out and valve just pushes a full-on game for it

@Violet @trashyfins@chomp.life I hope the stuff will get cheaper soon, especially the entry level stuff is getting kinda good now? I just wanna play Beat Saber tbh

@noiob @trashyfins beat saber is a pretty accessible vr game, runs quite nicely on even low end hardware

@noiob @trashyfins i'll be interested to see how long the game actually is, if it's longer than a couple of hours then we have finally broken out of the cycle of tech demo territory

@Violet @trashyfins@chomp.life RE7 is a full-length VR game if you wanna play it as one

it even did the "your life bar is on your hands" (okay, on your wrist) first :D

@noiob @trashyfins I should probably mention I hate horror games, a lot.

@Violet @trashyfins@chomp.life just wanted to mention it because it really did the whole "entire game in VR" thing really well, horror works well with a narrow field of view

I'll never play it in VR because it's already too scary on a screen lol

@noiob @trashyfins I mean I even found half-life 2 pretty scary to an extent when I originally played it, I really hope valve doesn't put any jumpscares into it because that is _the worst_

@noiob @trashyfins I'd rather not be sweating with anxiety while i'm wearing my already sweaty vr headset lol
