I enjoyed village in vr but always thought it had this weird unstable feeling, like everything vibrated and generally felt a little unstable. Hopefully this irons out all the kinks. Really buzzing I never got it when it came out, the og one on the GameCube held a space in my top 10 games ever so I’m super excited to play it through again

Babadook7978d ago (Edited 978d ago )

Unstable? I just finished Village and played it off and on for many months. I never found it to be unstable. It could be an issue with the room you use as your play space not having enough tracking surfaces? If that’s it you could add posters etc to the walls. If you mean the reprojection, I could see it, as it’s running at 60 fps native.

CrimsonWing69977d ago

Yea I was thinking that or he just watched a YouTube playthrough where it does that jittery look, which oddly isn’t the experience in the head set.

Quick question
IS there an option to make reloading easier on VR?
I have been told Resident evil village was pretty hard on psvr2 because of it

Babadook7976d ago (Edited 976d ago )

@Ratchet

Yes. From the main menu you can enable one button reload and other ease of use features.

But, I highly recommend just learning how to reload with your hands and getting good at it. It really adds immersion and nuance to boss battles, and it isn’t really hard, you just have to reload in key moments.

Profchaos977d ago (Edited 977d ago )

I also played it from beginning to end and I didn't get that feeling my overall thoughts boiled down to it being probably my favourite VR game to date and if you told me this was a vr game from the ground up I would have belived it. There's clear limitations in the world not everything can be interacted with like a traditional vr game but what can be is excellent. Reloading is the most satisfying feeling I've ever had in a vr game to date including pavlov.

Despite not being a vr developer Capcom somehow put most VR dev teams to shame.

@crimson if it's the social screen output I'd believe it however as it's clearly not the most robust implementation to date given the headset each foviated rendering deficit is far easier to notice given it's not obviously using eye tracking on the social screen meaning the output is noticeably worse to the non player something that's impossible to noticing headset

poppatron972d ago

When I say unstable I mean the graphics, even compared to something like saints and sinners (which is awesome by the way) where the world feels completely solid and stable. When I play village it’s like the edges of things aren’t completely stable. It’s not stopped me enjoying it don’t get me wrong. I feel like all the trailers I saw of the psvr version looked better than the game did itself. Idk. I’m shocked no one agrees to be honest. I’m playing no man’s sky now and it isn’t as detailed as village but even that feels more stable and solid. Saints and sinners has a completed different art style but I actually prefer how it looks personally, it’s much cleaner.

I still have high hopes for resi 4 vr though, I’ll be there day one

Profchaos972d ago

@poppatron I think what you're noticing is reprojection it's a method used to increase the frame rate and can lead to ghosting some people are more perceptible to it personally I don't notice it at all it's not in all games however. Games like red matter 2 and the the no man's sky update don't feature it and have natively high frame rates due to the lack of this technique combined with foviated rendering

You are seeing the future of gaming folks. I appreciate being a part of it.

Babadook7977d ago

Indeed. I feel like I’m privileged to play next gen stuff today when games take advantage of the hardware with AAA quality.

Hats off to Capcom for supporting PSVR continuously for 6+ years now. Bethesda were the only other 3rd party publisher who were really pushing for VR until they were acquired by the anti-VR MS. Hopefully more will come, Sony, get out your wallet and start getting VR modes into more mainstream AAA titles.

Profchaos977d ago

I really hope there's still a chance Bethesda can show psvr2 some love given they still released doom 3 VR post acquisition.

Microsoft has historically allowed their Dev teams to work on non competing gaming platforms for example rare was permitted to continue making GBA games post acquisition

ApocalypseShadow977d ago (Edited 977d ago )

All Sony really has to do is pay Capcom a big sum of money to put Dragon's Dogma 1 or 2 in VR. Would be great to see Skyrim updated. But doing this with Capcom would kill the need of needing Bethesda and avoid.. lol. Anti VR Microsoft.

They took many developers out the VR game with all their publisher purchases.

generic-user-name977d ago

I'd take more Capcom AAA titles, but I need Sony to convince R* that GTA V, RDR2 and GTA VI need to support VR too.

Babadook7977d ago (Edited 977d ago )

"Sony, get out your wallet and start getting VR modes into more mainstream AAA titles."

I like that sentiment.

I have a sneaking suspicion that Sony remade TLoU Pt1 to make a killer VR patch. With the gun mechanics it would work as well in VR as RE titles.

generic-user-name975d ago

That was my hope when TLOU Part 1 was announced but with still no word of VR support at all, it seems doubtful at this stage. If they have Nixxes for PC ports, they should also acquire a studio for PSVR2 ports, maybe someone like First Contact Entertainment, who they already have a close relationship with.

Neonridr977d ago

having this game in my possession and refusing to play it until the VR mode is ready has been excruciating. I want to play this game already, hurry up Capcom PLEASE!

wtf, good thing I already played and finished the game when it came out

walken7104d ago

Once again hurting the people who purchase and support the game. Meanwhile pirates get the best version. Pathetic.

PRIMORDUS104d ago

There is already someone or a group called voices38, that has been cracking Denuvo games lately. Not the newest games, but getting there.

PRIMORDUS104d ago

I wonder if the pirated copies run better like this one titled here: "Resident Evil 4: Remake - Gold Edition (No Denuvo) (v1.5.0.0 + All DLCs + Bonus Content + MULTi14) (From 50 GB)"

Furesis104d ago

i don't think so? as far as i know even pirated version have denuvo or whatever runing in the background, they just trick it to say that yes this is a legit copy or just skip that process, but im not 100% sure. regardless this is an endless battle where legit consumer "suffer" sometimes. it's not that big of a deal MOST of the times and i understand publishers not wanting people to get access to their games for FREE so, i cant blame them honestly. i do find it odd that they wouldn't just remove DRM completely considering most people already played it? not like they are getting more sales anymore, just lower the price remove DRM but i guess thats why they still have it because they dont want to lower the price. oh well

1nsomniac104d ago (Edited 104d ago )

A perfectly acceptable excuse to pirate the game.

Why would you accept to pay for the game in order for it to install software you don’t want with the intention to make your playing experience worse. Paying for that would be the very definition of stupid.

I’m not against DRM but if it negatively effects a product you’re paying for. Then it’s on them not you.

You know I would have liked this if it was added on for free. A nice substitute for Assignment Ada.
