Do you see VR being the future of gaming and the standard in which most games will be played in the future? Or do you see it as a passing fad? :D Do you plan on buying a VR headset soon?
-
I don't plan on getting a VR set anytime soon.
-
I really enjoy my Oculus and am really excited to see the Oculus Touch controllers, I don't really know if we can actually say it's going to be the future or just a fad.
-
It's both, it's just a gimmick really. It's like motion controls, they didn't take over, but they are still a thing and have a place. VR works mostly with very specific styles of games or novelty experiences designed specifically around VR as the big focus, but they aren't going to become what everyone uses to play every game.

Fad. I really hope. I just want to play a game with a controller that has buttons you press. I don't want wear something, I don't want to swing something, swipe something, point something. Just press buttons.

I can't believe I'm saying this. But if I was 10-20 years younger I would love this VR stuff. But after a long day/week of work it can be hard to devote just the mental focus to a game let alone be physically active with a weight on my head.
Resident Evil in VR does have me intrigued. But honestly I don't want to play every game in VR.

If someone I know gets the PSVR headset, I am also somewhat interested in Resident Evil VR. Normally I'm not for more straightforward horror experiences, like what they are seemingly do with RE7, kinda mixing elements of RE with like Outlast, but this is kind of becoming one of the poster child games for it right now. Can see how a lot of it will work in the trailers for the game.

Fad, especially with because of how Sony is intending to release it, not many people are going to upgrade to a ps4 pro, so not many people will develop for the peripheral after the initial launch.

The PS4 Pro isn't required to utilize the PSVR, unless I'm misreading what you are trying to say.

Fad.
It will always be a fad, it will never come around. In the future VR will surpass our previous expectations of what we defined as Virtual Reality.

I played EVE Valkyrie on a Playstation VR last weekend and was very impressed! I can see it becoming a lot more popular once the technology becomes more affordable, but yeah, I'd lean more towards saying it's the future.
-
It's still too bulky, unwieldy, and expensive for it to really take off. Not much has changed since the 90s attempt at virtual reality, besides more power and better graphics.
Now, if it was like the holodeck on Star Trek: The Next Generation; then that would be amazing I could totally see that taking off.
-
I think its just a fad that will die off eventually.
-
If it's anything like Sword Art Online, then it's the wave of the future.

That's a vastly different system than VR lol

I'm pretty sure that it's something that will stay alive, maybe only in niche markets but it won't ever go away completely if it ever does die down.
Simulators are always expensive hobby machines, that crowd will always be willing to shell out money for a more authentic sim experience. I am getting VR for racing games mostly. Anything more is bonus.
-
I can see the benefits of VR, I just don't see them in gaming
you know what would be interesting though, an Augmented Reality RTS game
-
i think it will be a fad, but hope it become main stream and in a few years, cheaper
