I didn't say it hasn't improved. But it hasn't improved more than the rest of gaming.

 

And honestly, i care about very few of the current VR games while many games i like don't benefit from a VR headset at all. Stuff like 'no body, no arms' in Robinson totally destroy immersion for me. And because of other people getting motion sickness  i'll probably not get VR in something like Halo 6.

 

Adding in the terrible resolution many VR-games have on a standard PS4, often pretty shallow VR experiences and still not that great displays VR is at least two or three years from getting really interesting for me. And that only if i get the kind of experiences i want to play on VR.

Robinson was a nice thing for some minutes though.

What games don't benefit from VR? (Except 2D games obviously)

Does no body no arms destroy immersion in any fps you play? It didn't bother me at all in Robinson, I don't check if my body is still there all the time in real life either. Don't need to look at my feet to walk, just the occasional window check to see how awesome I look :p The immersion comes from the surroundings actually surrounding you. Characters standing right in front of you feel completely different from a character on a screen.

The resolution is on par with last gen games, how quickly they have become unacceptable? It's better than the Wii, my kids still play on the ps2! (Champions of Norrath, top down RPG in VR could be fun, lots of overview of the battlefield!)

But sure, the paranoia about motion sickness is holding it back a bit. And yes, I would like to play full games too in VR. Dishonered 2 seems perfect for it. Sneaking around, leaning around corners, leaning in to peak through gaps, putting your ear to the wall, moving a curtain slightly aside to look through the crack and fiddling with puzzles right in front of you. As it is now, I have no desire to play it on a screen.

Anyway the only way to get the games you want to VR is to invest in VR :)
