I hope they get Alien running well on the hardware. Because if they do, it's going to be 100x scarier than RE Village ever was. Might even be worse than Madison VR if Alien Isolation in flat gaming was able to get to the levels it did, in VR it must be unthinkable.

Can anyone explain why it needs an adapter and not simply a software plugin?

becuase not every gpu has usb-c with virtual link protocol support (only some amd and gefroces 2xxx have it)

imo the most important and still criminally underutilized vr feature is eye tracking... kinda sucks it won't function on pc.

PCVR headsets need the feature for their own sake. If they adopt it it could be patched in then

Holy balls that game was rough and you know how forgiving I am with some PSVR2 games, lol. One of the few examples where I agreed with everyone roasting it.

I hope they fixed the Left handed mode. It forces movement to the right analog stick, so obnoxiously dumb.

Just watched Jammyhero's video. Behemoth could be pretty cool, would like to try a demo before buying it in the future, though.

Too bad Bulletstorm VR is total shit

We can vote for madison vr, understand is too scary for many but lets support hybrid approach

Has anyone tried the exorcist game yet? I'm very interested. Is it even out yet?

I didnt but watched without parole review and its apparently solid

|OT| - PlayStation VR2 |OT| I heard it has a single cable. Is this true?

It really does! It might be a VR sleeper hit It is extremely well reviewed on Quest and according to the devs it will be a much upgraded version with Foveated rendering, 120 fps native and full haptics usage (they will patch the headset rumble after launch tho). Another topic I already spent...

I would assume it is not impossible that it could get added later. If the adapter sells, porting the process that runs on PS5 should be possible and just adding a bit to the requirements. I guess it works over some image processing that tracks the video feed from the eye cam? Some cpu power needed for that and also maybe a better version USB3-port to get that signal over.
I would assume everything that is not currently suppoted or announced should be able to be patched, if it makes sense for Sony. Eg head rumble is currently on no PC game anyway, so unless devs specifically ask for that feature to be unlocked and add it to their game, working on it was hardly priority for now. HDR on PC or PC monitors is as far as i am aware also not that much supported as on consoles. It should be possible, but let's see.
Imo dumb move to strip from it some of its distinguishing features, some of its sales arguments, but Sony and VR is just a loveless marriage. PC support should have been there day one, and with all features and one of their own games already showcasing it on PC. Which would mean either GT or Horizon.

Implementing Dynamic Foveated Rendering for PSVR2 and Cross-Platform Optimization

Six months post-launch of Hellsweeper VR, we managed to implement Eye-tracked Dynamic Foveated Rendering (ETDFR) for the PSVR2 build of Hellsweeper VR.

I'm so damn excited for this one, but also keeping my expectations in check based on most Alien games and many recent VR titles.

Hopefully they give the PSVR2 special care with its features.

The primary issue is that Gaze Foveated Rendering is treated as an input like button and stick ones: it has to precede the rendering pipeline for every frame. The eye position must be tracked and communicated to the console BEFORE the actual frame rendering starts, in order to magnify the detail of the area of gaze, letting the rest to be low detail. It means that the the game, the engine and the hardware have to be designed for it to be possible.
If a random PC game isn't coded for that, or the hardware doesn't allow for such latency requirements (this last thing is unlikely), there will be the need for a specific patch, and if the rendering has high latency, it may be too problematic to be worth the hassle.

PSVR2 is going to be $699 at one retailer in Australia next week. Almost $200 off.

It should have the same drastic price cut everywhere else...

 

[SilentUser]

Massive difference! Plus, they added fiveated rendering and increased the resolution.

I grabbed Hellsweeper during the sales.
The game is quite fun, but I made the mistake of playing the first run on normal, without doing any tutorial, so, playing it as a relatively normal shooter mixed with melee, I finished a full run through all three acts in half an hour without dying once.
The following runs, however, making use of all the moves and arsenal, were transformative. I totally recommend it if you have good VR legs. Wall running or doing a flip while shooting at enemies is a really cool feeling that I haven't experienced with any other game.

nice. time to get out the flight stick.

Game is certainly gorgeous! 90hz is a big plus.

The post was pretty confusing in how it was worded.

As I understand it, the DLC is out today and the base game is on PS+ Premium on June 18.

Yeah, I'm buying this.

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

Pretty cool but after all this time only one new environment? Very underwhelming, especially taking in consideration the limited content that it was launched...

Im playing now Retropolis 2 and realy enjoy it. Recommend to everybody that used to like point and clicks games back in the day.

 

[SilentUser]

100% not going to be something like a DLC, most likely just some behind the scenes stuff. Still, wanted to share here because it is such a great game!

 

[R6Rider]

I need to buy a flight stick for Ace of Thunder. Seems like the easiest option is the Thrustmaster HOTAS 4.
