Even for a lot of games with strategic views, being able to hover above the battlefield or fly between your battle lines would be so cool - like the most immersive tabletop wargame possible.
You can do it in Total War Warhammer and it's awesome.
That’s what I said about Skyrim. First person immersive world seemed perfect for VR.
It makes me violently motion sick, though, like to the point where I barely made it through the opening cart ride, and had to stop after 5 min of free movement. :(
Having textures race past, and feeling like you are in or barely above the ground due to the floor texture not having adjustable height to account for depth perception, while “moving” is super uncomfy, imho.
I’m super with you about wanting it, though. I’m desperate for VR to be immersive like that, and not vomit-inducing.
I feel really lucky to have practiced my VR legs for almost a decade that pretty much nothing makes me feel sick anymore. Maybe you could train on easier stuff at first?
I’ve played other stuff, it all makes me a bit mildly queasy for a few min while I adjust and goes away.
Skyrim was intense violent nausea, and it got worse as I went. Whole different ballpark of motion sickness. I’d love to be able to play it but realistically I’ll probably never be able to get past that.
But it’s also not a game that was made to be VR, where literally everything else I’ve played was, so even with tunnel vision set to max during movement it was just too much texture, too “close”, and too fast.
You should try it if you haven’t, see if it makes you sick :) I’d be curious, if almost nothing else does.
I have 113 hours in skyrim VR. I never felt bad playing tbh.
I think that's weird, I never had nausea any worse with Skyrim VR than any other game. I just get a mild discomfort with everything that kind of goes away now, kind of like being in the car too long.
I've played several dozen hours in Skyrim VR. Only time I've gotten significant motion sickness was the cart ride, that thing is hell
I've had to put down the headset until I got to see the character creator
I watched the YouTube video referenced in the article earlier today and it was truly amazing how well BG holds up as a first person game. It’s almost tragic that a FPV mode isn’t available by default - the world hits a ton harder from that view.
Reminds me of ESO a little bit.
Wow are the graphics absolutely gorgeous
The penis rock in that screenshot has such detail!
I'd buy it if it had first person view built in.
Mod support is built in!
Is this mod available on consoles? I might have to pick it up since it seems to have a physical version now.
It isn't a single mod, someone stringed mods together in a particular way that makes it turn into a first person experience.
Mods needed are:
The mods used by Proxy Gate Tactician are Norbye's Baldur's Gate 3 Script Extender (Norbyte), Native Mod Loader (kassent), Native Camera Tweaks (Ersh), WASD Character Movement (Ch4nKyy), Remove Camera Move (Gycicada) and Choose Your Size (Guilty7), along with a couple of optional mods.
