[–] GluWu@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago (3 children) Is VR in subnautica an actual way to play or just a once in a while gimmick. I've had it in my library since back when it was beta and have never played more than a few minutes. Installed it since it does VR through steamlink but haven't played yet. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 years ago (1 child) I love VR and Subnautica but Subnautica is not a good game to play in VR. You can make it kinda work with mods, but it does feel very janky. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] GluWu@lemm.ee 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Dang. I thought maybe since it gained so much support and got so big since from when I got it in a $15 indie humble bundle that it might actually be a good one. I'll finally try it tonight. Have you tried the VR mod for Firewatch? I just got it on a random steam sale for $2, played a bit on my steamdeck, and was thinking the entire time I wish this was VR. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) I haven’t! I beat it in flat mode and loved it though! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] GluWu@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago I haven't gotten too far in, so I want to get the VR mod installed and restart. It's so good so far, though the intro really does suck, like emotionally. I think it's a perfect format for VR with the walking/ basic interaction format, nothing too complex, and great comfy visuals. I hope it works. Sometimes, I feel like I should wait until things get better and fixed, but sometimes that leads to me missing things. I wish there were more open source, hacking, development, just community for VR. I've used it since Google cardboard and things really have never taken off. I think with steamlink now streaming to quest headsets, that really help. permalink fedilink source parent [–] BlueLineBae@midwest.social 4 points 2 years ago (1 child) I honestly couldn't say as I startled playing the normal version. But as spooky as that game can get, I don't think I'd even want to try VR version lol. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] GluWu@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago The real horrors in our reality are just depressing, so I'd prefer to distract myself with spooky scary subnautica monsters. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Leon@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 2 years ago The vanilla VR implementation in Subnautica is very old and kind of tacked onto the game as an afterthought. You have to play with a regular controller and I found the menus to be in the most eye-strain spot possible. I know there is at least one VR mod to fix it and bring in motion controls but I've never tried it. permalink fedilink source parent
