I bought a psvr2 for my ps5. It’s really impressive but has three major flaws.

  1. it’s too hot. It seals against your face with a rubber gasket and turns into a sweat machine.
  2. vr in general causes motion/simulation sickness. Takes all the fun right out of the game.
  3. there’s no games for it. Even the “good” games suck. Beat saber being the exception to the rule.

There are some great games idk what you’re talking about.

1 and 2 aren’t personally a problem for me I prefer the rubber gasket to the cloth on my meta headset but if you run hot I could see that being a problem.

3 though, I’ve been really enjoying the newish Alien Game, walkabout mini golf (of course), the resident evils… I mean yeah the library is limited but in no way are the “good” games sucking. The ones I just listed ruled.

If I ever upgrade my ancient PC I’m really looking forward to using this headset on PC.

I've read someone is in the early stages of getting eye tracking to work with the PSVR2 on PC. I've seen clips that it works, but was still obviously needing calibration.

And it was just on sale for like $350 IIRC, I was mega tempted to say the least.

Yeah I picked one up the first time they were on sale about a year ago. Absolutely love it. Realized my Pc is no where near vr ready ended up buying a quest just to have more Vr. I wasn’t expecting the quality to be so different. The VR2 headset is truly amazing.

2 big things can help your 2nd point:

  • A circle rug with noticeably different feel to it compared to the floor it's on.
  • A single floor standing fan aiming at the area (or circle rug) where you use VR.

Both should help you maintain your orientation in the world without breaking your immersion.

Some games are just poorly made though, and even give me motion sickness. And I basically never get motion sickness from VR in general.
