Holy poo poo Blaston is no joke. I played for like a half an hour tonight and I am blown the gently caress up. Also I got to gold ranking in that 30 minutes so if that free copy when you hit platinum thing is on the table that seems incredibly obtainable.

More people should play it, it’s only $10.

So someone earlier linked to the Skyrim VR modding guide here. It's been fantastic and despite buying Skyrim a fifth time (literally) just to experience this, it has made me want to try Fallout 4 VR. Is there a similar guide for modding Fallout4 in VR at all?

My VR setup (index) is in a different room from my PC, and it’d be cool if someone at the PC could talk to the person in VR without shouting around a couple corners. Any thoughts on how I could set the thing up so that audio from a PC headset mic gets played on the HMD and audio from the HMD mic gets played on the PC headset? Like, I can almost do it with something like Voicemod where I can set the headset as the source and the HMD as the output and then turn on Hear Myself, but that’s only one way. Obviously this would need to work over top of whatever else is being run, but that doesn’t seem to bother Voicemod normally, so surely there’s a way?

Ive had my Oculus 2 for about a week now and my favorite thing so far is Echo VR arena. The zero g movement is really neat and as for the game itself, its just lots of fun. Ive played about 10-15 pub games and while im not good I am having a blast. Its so close to being "Battle School" from Enders Game Pavlovs Shack is fun but the two handed guns seem hard to use but ive only spent about 20 minutes playing Im tempted to get Climb next.

I'm continuing to play the old games i had pending. Now it's Edge of Nowhere. The first thing I notice is that it looks pretty bad? Clearly low resolution. I had to use the oculusDebugTool to increase the pixel density to 1.4, as there was no graphical options nor .ini files. It seems it was designed around CV1 and no thought was spent of future headsets. Once that's fixed, the third person perspective is interesting. All the other 3rd person VR games I had played until now had you with a slightly farther away camera, where the character looks more like a toy to the player. This one the camera is much closer, and the scale of things is such that you play from the perspective or a invisible companion to the main character, he looks like having a correct human scale. For now I will say the game suffers for being rushed, you don't know who you are nor what you were doing traveling in Antartica when you are suddenly thrown into the action. No setup.

I don't see the appeal to Demeos, but also ive never gotten a chance to play Dnd either Isn't the whole point of DnD to use your imagination? why make it look like a board game? And you dont do any of the fighting? you just stand there and punk down cards and stuff?

A lot of D&D is tactical combat. It was originally a wargame that added RP to explain why all these scenarios were occurring. A lot of modern criticism of D&D is that it holds too much on to those roots and doesn't do enough with the storytelling aspects that have since evolved in the rpg space. So this game kind of feels like a refinement of that style of D&D. Get together with friends to have fun smashing skeletons.

Basically the new game they launched, isn't going to take the focus from the blasty boizzz

The advantage of something like Demeo in VR I think is having a tier above video chat in terms of the social experience. So it's not that it's better than D&D or whatever, but it'll probably be closer to a D&D like experience you could get without VR. The feeling that you're across the table from someone is extremely good, and you can only really get that in real life or to a lesser degree VR.

I thought I saw Demeo was by the same group, they definitely seem like a great bunch. Super responsive and always tweaking and adding to Blaston in smart ways. I appreciate the vague hyping of what’s to come, though they’ve won me over enough already that I didn’t even assume they would abandon Blaston. Glad Demeo is off to a great start, they deserve it!

.Ataraxia. posted:I have not tried this, but it was the best I could find when I was doing some light searching the other day. FO4VR modding seems to be nowhere near as advanced as SkyrimVR unfortunately. Yeah that’s the current “best” FO4VR mod list. I put best in quotes because on the one hand it’s literally the best mod pack for getting a stable roll up of the best performance/visuals/immersion stuff. It also has a couple unique author created mods that address game mechanics that worked fine in pancake but are annoying as hell in VR. On the other hand, the author is highly opinionated about how she likes to play Fallout in VR and refuses to release a vanilla version so you’re gonna be stuck in Survival mode (but at least can manually save) and can’t really rip out some cosmetic/gameplay mods without the whole thing going to poo poo. Also there was some weird discord/Reddit/who cares drama recently and end result she pulled her mods down and seems to be possibly abandoning the list entirely? Idk my advice would be to test it out and make sure you’re really happy with the gameplay changing stuff before you get too invested in a character. Personally I enjoy 80% of what she changed but if you want a pure FO4 experience, this ain’t it.

I've had it in my wishlist for a while now. Tales of Glory is OK. The combat's no Blade & Sorcery but it works. The concept of VR Mount and Blade is there but it's very vanilla and a bit more structured; you kind of have a goal of sorts, I think!? Not much is very well communicated to you. The game's writing is fairly juvenile, with "funny" discord quotes on loading screens. During some of the single-missions you can get, like sneaking through a camp or something, some anachronistic voice clips that I'm sure the dev finds utterly hysterical play (Such as a California stoner dude sounding voice saying "Wait, wait, wait.....there's GOOD cholesterol??" Every, five, seconds...), so if stuff like that turns you off, it might be a pass. I don't think it's bad or anything, but there are some rough spots, for sure.

Beer_Suitcase posted:I don't see the appeal to Demeos, but also ive never gotten a chance to play Dnd either Demeo isn't really trying to capture D&D, it's trying to capture board game dungeons crawlers in particular (so the D&D Adventure System, Warhammer Quest, Descent: Journeys in the Dark, games like that). Those games tend to be almost exclusively combat-oriented, frequently have some form of dungeon randomization, are usually played with pre-set characters, and have very strict rules that aren't meant to be open to interpretation. The fun of them comes from the social aspect and the depth / difficulty of combat rather than from any form of open-ended role playing and story telling like you'd find in standard D&D or Pathfinder. Basically, they're the board game equivalents of Diablo, not the board game equivalents of Fallout: New Vegas. In that sense, the thing that makes VR cool is that the presence of other players and the physicality of actually moving the pieces and rolling the dice is a large part of the appeal of the board games, and VR is the only medium that really comes close to capturing that. anothergod posted:Hey I just got an Oculus 2 and I'm looking for VR fitness and golf games.

This mod list was done by somebody who clearly lives and breathes FO4 and knows everything about it and still wanted a bit of a challenge. If you try it, I highly recommend going into the options and tuning down the randomly spawning patrols and such. I also gave myself a bunch of perks and had a reasonably 'ok' time, but most of the time it was basically 'oh a patrol appeared that had guns and instantly killed me, fun'.

Form was comically short. Really pretty but mostly the puzzles were just "monkey push button" levels of complexity, but they were still entertaining enough to go through. For $15, I expected it to go on longer: 0.8 hours and it would appear the game has completed, unless I missed something really big. I did love the way the puzzles manifested in front of me, unfolding from within themselves, recombining, constantly changing. It was fascinating to watch. Still, could do with some better story development, or like, any. Probably little to no replay here. 8/10 for visual interest, 5/10 for gameplay, and 3/10 for content. Tea For God is just as crazy as one would think. An infinite non-euclidean maze of twisting corridors and passageways, crammed into whatever space I provide it? Heck yeah. Looking forward to more of this and learning to better navigate this place. Wish the graphics were less lo-fi but for the low low price of "free" I'm definitely on board. Super jelly of people who get to play this one wirelessly. Would love to set up on an empty basketball court or something. The cramped corridors work well for the aesthetic, and while the system of utilities you find out there is at first a little confounding, the on-screen guidance combined with a very little bit of experimentation leads to it all making sense in fairly short order. 7/10 for visual interest, 7/10 for gameplay (admittedly, I didn't get real far), 5?/10 for content (guessing this could suffer the curse of many procedural games, unsure). Extra 10/10 for novelty.

BrainDance posted:I remember late 90s Disney World having DisneyQuest I think, an arcade that had VR. It was some light saber group thing. I kinda remember being not as impressed as I thought I would be, but drat I wish there was a way to go back and play that again on a modern headset.  Disneyquest had a couple of VR attractions. There was a flying carpet one where you flew through Agrabah, and "Ride The Comix," where you had a motion sensing controller and lightsabered the poo poo out of some people. The first one was a seated experience with a custom yoke for controls, the second was a standing experience where they strapped people to a board so they wouldn't lean forward and fall off the platform, which was above a multi-story atrium.The HMDs were two parts - you put on a lining while you were waiting, then when it was your turn, the HMD (which was so heavy the weight was supported by a contraption) would click onto it. Not dissimilar to the set up that Universal Japan is using for the Mario Kart AR attraction. They do give off excellent turn of the millennium vibes, though. Like seeing giant cell phones.
