I bought a Rift S to find out what this VR stuff is all about. Verdict: fffffffuuuuucccckkkkk yes  Now I want more. I'm very temped to wait till the Pimax 5k is generally available and get me one of those. On the other hand, I could get an Index right now. Has anybody had the chance to compare the Index and the 5k? How much better does the Pimax view angle make the experience? Will I hate myself in a few months if I get an index now? Regarding Skyrim VR: can I use total conversions for normal Skyrim with that? I just started to play Enderal, and doing it in VR would be awesome.

I read a bit more regarding the Index vs Pimax 5k question, and yea, it looks like the Index really comes out on top. The 5k's widest view angle (200 degrees) is a marketing lie (they measured it in the diagonals, not horizontally). It actually is something like 170 degrees. The problem is that those 170 degrees REALLY stresses your hardware, and also introduces some very noticeable distortions at the edges of your view. The distortions might or might not be fixed in future versions of their driver software. Their medium setting (150 degrees) is much more usable right now - a clear image and a manageable hardware load. But that's just 10 degrees better than the index. Also those 10 degrees are completely in your peripheral vision, and as such are not that noticeable. So yea, the index is the better package for now.

That Italian Guy posted:Anyone else experiencing weird "depth perception distortion" after spending some time in VR? I don't have locomotion sickness, but sometimes I get weirded out trying to put stuff close to my face in focus after playing for a while. I wear glasses inside the headset, if that makes any difference. It's nothing major (no dizziness or vertigo), just a weird feeling that something is "off". I had this too, and then it went away.

I got "thrill of the fight" in the sale. Is there a way to influence the orientation of the box-ring (relative to my real world playing area?). I would like the ring to be oriented in the opposite direction compared to the current setting because this would make it easier to deal with the cable. Changing the direction of my monitor during room setup has no influence on that.

LLSix posted:I'm slowly getting my VR legs, but I still can't play for more than a half hour with smooth movement. Has anyone gotten foot tracking locomotion working yet? Maybe that'll help. And if you really want to go all out, it even supports feet trackers. And they have a free demo so you can try if it does it for you.
