When it first came out a few years ago I was like meh, who cares about VR, it seemed like one of those very fringe things where you had to have a very expensive and huge set up just to experience it. Kinda like having a platform treadmill type where you can walk around and things like that. I never thought that one could have such an amazing and immersive experience simply with a head visor and wireless controllers. Technology sure has come along from the days of the Wii.

My only issue now is that after a week I still get nauseous from time to time. I was hoping by now I'd get used to it but not yet.
I'm one of the lucky ones I guess - I've never had a problem with VR induced nausea unless I am doing roles in the VR airplane game "Ultrawing" (which would probably happen in real life as well). The usual suggestions is, again, you get your VR legs with time, some longer than others. Other suggestions is to take ginger or blow a fan at your face. Don't give up.

I've heard good things about "Blood and Truth", that's on my purchase list for sure.
Other good games are Resident Evil (the first and probably still the best game I played in PSVR, and it will freak you out at times), Dirt Rally if you like racing games, Farpoint if you like shooting games and get the AIM controller, Doom VFR (I played that with the AIM controller as well), Wipeout (tons of content here), The Persistance, Until Dawn (plays on tracks but really fun). They also have BorderLands 2 which is open world. I played it before on flatscreen so I am opting out of the VR version.

I remember reading a while ago that ginger helped people with motion sickness on boats. I did buy some ginger candy a few days ago and it seems to help a lot (if I don't eat anything else).

I've heard good things about the Until Dawn rail shooter also and might get that. I played RE7 already but not sure I want to do that in VR. Definitely getting Skyrim.

Introducing the next generation of VR on PlayStation


Next-gen VR on PS5: the new controller

Could be incredible on a powerful system like the PS5, but not sure I'd want to take the plunge again. VR is amazing, but it just keeps making me sick and I never did get used to it on the PS4 (ended up selling my VR unit).
