Great full VR
Understanding this is the first commercial version of VR, HTC did a great job!
After careful set up by instructions I had no problems in setting up my Vive. I had also started downloading lots of free software on Steam as soon as it shipped.
So I was ready to jump into the VR realm. It was impressive. Movement through twleporting seems to be the easiest. Google Earth VR let's you fly, and it seems something like that would be hard to control in a game that was not, in fact, a flying game.
So moving around my cleared and defined area, ducking and weaving while shooting a bow at life sized orcs is almost a dream for an old gamer like me.
It still is not perfect of course, I have found people tend to turn in the same direction so the cord needs to be unwound. And I recommend looping the cord through something like an eye hook by the computer to lessen pulling on the hardware.
There are only a few buttons, so interactions are somewhat limited, but I don't miss it. When you are standing up and moving about, a few buttons is all you need. You can get a decent workout fighting Orcs or Zombies.
Overall I see quote q few up for resale, but mine won't be. My son and I are really enjoying our forays into VR, and I have even bought a few games now. I may have to buy extra foam facepieces. We do get sweaty.
The headset seems kind of heavy when you put it on, but you adjust it and forget fairly quickly.
