Yay, six more years til they release a buggy mess

Do you want another release of skyrim? Because that's how you get another release of skyrim!

The Skyrim releases will continue until morale improves.

As much of a joke as all the re-releases are, I'm super happy Skyrim VR exists. It's one of the best VR experiences with the right mods that make it an actual VR game instead of a cheap cash-grab...

I've wanted to try VR. Any recommendations?

Quest 3, no doubt. The Index is old and overpriced at this point. HP Reverb G2 has great picture quality, but the controller tracking isn't great and the cable is super thick. Plus Microsoft stopped supporting its mixed reality stuff. Vision Pro is not for gaming, just forget about it even if you can afford it. PSVR 2 might be a choice now that it supports PCVR, but I dunno. Its future support is kinda in doubt.

The only real downside of Q3 is being owned by Meta, which is obviously blech, but it's an amazing piece of technology otherwise, and the price is a steal, since it's heavily subsidized to grow the market.

A cheaper version is expected to be announced soon, so that might be an alternative. But otherwise there isn't much competition unless you're looking into a very particular niche.

I have a feeling they'll be pushing different releases of Starfield so they can act like it was good.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

why are so many people absent mindedly pushing this buggy mess narrative? starfield was their least buggy release ever (i personally only encountered one terrible bug that was easily fixed with reloading a save)

its not like bethesda ever released a game as buggy as fallout new vegas or cyberpunk, besides 76 but, like new vegas and cyberpunk, it got fixed

New Vegas gets a pass because it was made in 18 months.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 months ago

not too much of a pass though, because it was obsidian who gave the timeframe
