Don't be dumb.
100% this. I have the feeling it's the low FOV that makes me not feel heights at all like other people do. In flying games it doesn't look like I'm hundreds of meters above the ground. I can freefall and not feel anything, even in Mirror's Edge I felt my stomach turning anytime Faith fell to her death, and that was playing on a TV!
Could be, but I'd bet its more likely that they just want all their PS5 VR games to be easily ported to PC. The hardware could work with a PC, maybe, but its less likely. I'm not sure how many PC GPUs would have the sufficient USB-C port (thats maybe customized on PS5) to drive the PSVR2 headset.
I guess I never really thought of the USB-C to GPU issue. My laptop has that feature, just figured most would on PC too. Maybe they'll have a USB-C to HDMI add-on haha, if that's even a thing. How does the Quest 2 do it then? That's the most used VR headset on Steam right now and it has to (officially) connect via USB-C
Higher FOV is most definitely welcome. It's hyperbole in my opinion to say currently it's not good enough though or unplayable. The motion blur we are subjected to on televisions also isn't "good enough" but it's not stopping people from enjoying them. Only in the realm of VR is not good enough equating to people not willing to use it when for the first time the tech is both accessible due to affordability and is good enough technology wise to enjoy it.
The quest 2 uses USB C, but it doesn't connect to HDMI. h.264 compression is used to stream it to the headset (like blu ray, or nvidia shield game streaming). USB has enough bandwidth when h.264 or HEVC compression is used. They could do this on ps5 since there is usb c in the front and it would open the door for wireless streaming to the headset.
Unfortunately, they’re far away from human clarity, suffer from washed colors and don’t provide the deepest blacks. Moreover, the refresh is lacking. Moreover, there’s distortions when you get larger than 140 degrees, which is both a software and hardware issue.
You can list flaws for any television that ever existed. That doesn't stop people from gaming in it. Human eyes are extremely adaptable and you don't need one to one clarity. As long as the framerate is high enough your eyes are okay with it.
And modern sample and hold displays we use for movies and gaming suffers from objectively horrible motion blur and if you aren’t using oled have bad black levels, terrible contrast and inaccurate colors, but that doesn’t stop people from enjoying them
Of course, but all the flaws are significantly more noticeable in VR, with these panels close to your face.
In my opinion it's not enough to subtract from the experience. The tech is far enough along to be enjoyable, and has plenty of room to grow and improve.
While 200 would be nice, it'd also mean that PSVR2 would need a very high resolution in order to not look pixelated. We're talking native 4Kish at the minimum. Way too high if they want to target 120 hz (which they should).
Because you're running a full fledge application on the side which is using extra resources and it's a layer of complexity that is not user friendly and add a dependency that user and Oculus doesn't have control on.
This. It won't even be remotely close.
False, you cannot call Oculus if your have difficulty connecting Virtual Desktop to you PC to play PCVR game. Sure it's achievable but it's clumsy solution for a mass market crowd.
Dualsense, SSD speed, liquid metal cooling.
It's already cheap, wireless and there are good games to play. The moral is it's dumb that people keep coming up with excuses not to play VR and will just be waiting forever by moving the goal posts.
