Current Events > For real, though, Oculus Quest is amazing

(+) Yeah! (+)

I've been playing through Half-Life Alyx, and in no way does it feel inferior to any other VR headset setup - and arguably actually feels superior to Vive due to being wireless.

What other games do you have so far?

I've had to fight the urge to re-buy stuff I have on PSVR (Borderlands 2 and Skyrim) so I mostly have side-loaded freeware stuff like a VR port of Doom (which is amazing)

I already had No Man's Sky. It's almost too much in VR, though.

hey answer me this: will I be able to play Alyx sitting down or in a smaller space than 6'x6'?

Should be able to for the latter. Haven't tried it sitting down.

Beat Saber and Blade & Sorcery are bangers. The latter is still in early access and a little buggy, but it's a fun little arena age.

Gorn's really good too!

Yes you can play sitting.

You still have to reach out and physically manipulate items so make sure there's maybe 3 feet of space around you.

It's obviously more immersive if you can physically walk around, and Quest's "guardian" room mapping system is amazing for that very reason, but it also supports stationary play.

Nice I just have limited space in my room because I'm working from home with a 2nd computer desk.
