Yeah you definitely get used to it. Even Lucky's Tale gave me a bit of motion sickness when I first started playing it but it quickly passed. The more often you play, the quicker you get used to it.
Rift, Vive, and Virtual Reality

Just tried out Windlands. Took off all the VR anti vomit-measures - no problems. Guess I got my VR legs.
Awesome game, by the way. Bionic Commando in VR basically.

As I said a few weeks ago...I really expect Scorpio to support as much VR HMDs as possible (with the Vive being the high-end experience IMO). Here's what Phil Spencer had to say about that:

Not going to be a very good VR game they make if they're using Photoshop and not some 3D modelling software...Phil Spencer said:
I got the new razer blade with nvidia 1060. Rift works wonderfully on it. Based on the first ~half an hour or so I would claim blade runs vr better than my desktop with nvidia 780 Ghz edition. This is quite an achievement for not too thick 14" laptop.
Blade supports rift "out of the box". No hacking needed. I guess razers vr ready claims are true.

Flat 3d should look good in VR I think. Imagine making a game where everything is flat, like Mario paper.
Only the world is 3d.
Make it like a miniature world floating in front of you
It's still 3D. If you just use 2D sprites (3D quads), texture res will need to be off the charts! But would like to see a VR Tearaway world - would look amazing if with good quality GI. Abstract is where VR could really shine.
Yes I was thinking about that too. Presumably Tearaway didn't do well enough on PS4? Bound though is much like this and a Tearaway VR could reuse a lot of that tech. Bound is also getting a pretty serious Pro upgrade and it is already *very* good ...
Some hype and reviews while waiting. I'll get mine tomorrow. Hopefully the third sensor ships before holidays.

Mine still hasn't processed or shipped yet. Oh well, I have a 1080 that's scheduled to arrive tomorrow so I'll get to re-experience some Vive titles until Touch finally gets here. Also need to figure out whether the Oculus cameras are going to be able to handle my Vive's room size, or if I'm going to need to dedicated mounts for the cameras. I was hoping I'd be able to screw one or two of the cameras into the exposed threaded hole of the lighthouses, but I'm thinking that might put them too far away.
The launch lineup looks excellent though. The bundled software is actually almost too good - in the sense that I'm left wondering how many people are going to be buying much third-party Touch launch content at all for the next couple months.
from Reddit:
Free for Preorders
Free With Any Oculus Store Purchase (limited time offer)
Free Upon Activating Touch controllers
Free for Everyone
I think I would have been happy had they only bundled Medium and something else.

I guess the play area on rift is quite much smaller than vive based on reviews.
I'm probably going to get i expect you to die and wait for rest of the neat games to come on sale.
I need better gpu but I decided to wait just a bit. There is enough rumors that I want to see what comes out next.

Touch is amazing to a point that I would call it magical. The tracking is truly spectacularly 1:1 even with really fine movements. The capacitive buttons and gestures are much more useful than what I thought. For example grabbing and letting go is very natural. The getting to know the controller minigame/app is also just fantastic.
On the negative side the touch play area calibration is bit tedious and might take second try to optimize camera placement. Also without third sensor there clearly is ways to obstruct the path and get poor tracking if you turn away from cameras/place hands behind back.
Overall I'm super happy how touch turned out. And now time to go install rest of the free stuff and try it out.
