It's definitely a new way to experience the game. I'm guessing you either haven't tried VR that much, or you're intentionally underselling the premise because it suits your argument, but it should be pretty obvious that Skyrim VR differs much more from the other versions of the game than Skyrim Switch does.

I actually have. But I also have other VR devices, and the PSVR makes it very difficult to get an enjoyable experience, let alone a new one. And it's only a new experience to fit your own argument because it's on a peripheral of your favourite platform. What is different about the game content wise? Is the control scheme with tracking unlike anything you have experienced before compared to other VR games? What is exactly new about it. I could get "different" experience. But new? No.

It's not about "compared to other games". It's about compared to other versions of Skyrim. If you actually can't admit that Skyrim VR offers a new, much more different way to experience Skyrim than Skyrim Switch does than it's no point continuing this discussion.

There is no difference contentwise. But that's not the only thing that influences your experience. Resident Evil 4 on Wii, and Metroid Prime 1&2 on the Wii were new experiences due to the control scheme which affects gameplay. Even though they had the same content as their original releases. I don't get why you're so hung up on the exact platform it's on. I don't care if it's PSVR or HTC Vive or Oculus.

 

Wether you think that way is enjoyable or not because of PSVR's and the PS4's limitations is another question entirely, but that doesn't detract from the fact that it is.... new.
