Skyrim VR is my Game of the Year

So I have just got this yesterday, having played about an hour, at this point I'm going to say I really regret spending that £300 on it.

I've tried all the adjustments, and the resolution just looks terrible to me, I can barely read the writing, and I had an eye test just 2 months ago and the optician said my eyesight is perfect.. So either I'm doing something wrong, my headset is broken or you are all raving about ps2 style graphics.

Honestly it looks worse than the original release on the Xbox 360..

The move Controls are clunky, although I'm sure with time I would get used to them, however the head tracking seems permanently out, I'm pressing the move button and it's advancing me 45degrees to my left, constantly.

The fact you can't walk backwards seems a major flaw and obstacle in this game, and for half the time I've been playing so far, one of my weapons (dual wielding) has been floating 2 meters in front of me (although handy for hitting people running towards you, it destroys immersion)

Perhaps there's something im doing wrong (completely open to that possibility given I'm a VR newb) maybe my headset doesn't work (brand new, in a box with sticky clear disc seals attached, and all packaging correct, twist tied wires in individual plastic etc) or I just don't suit VR.

I have never in my life been motion sick before, but the tracking issue (running at an angle to fov) seems to be giving me it!

Keep playing with your set up. It took me a while to realise some games work better with the unit on top of the TV and some games work better with the unit under the TV. I have the Camera set up on top of the TV for Skyrim, and I have not been having too much of an issue. 

You may be running sideways because your Move has drifted. Look at the position of the controller when you have your weapons unequiped, if it looks off, shake it around, and it should snap back to center. 

As for the graphics, well this is early VR. The draw distance is not great, so objects look rough until you get up close, things like road signs for example. Just make sure you check your headset position in the quick menu when you start playing to make sure you have it as focused as possible.

Also, you can run in any direction with the move. Whichever way you point it, determines the direction you run.

Keep at it. If you don't find enjoyment in Skyrim, definitly try out as many free demos as you can. There are a lot available on the store. I have enjoyed PSVR more than anything else this year, only Mario Odyssey and Horion Zero Dawn/Frozen Wilds have kept my interest outside of VR. I'm sure you will find something you like.
