The last video game you played?

Universe Sandbox 2 in VR. Never again! That game in VR when you scale everything up to full size gives you such a horrible sense of unease and anxiety. I turned around and behind me was a full scale planet Earth and it scared me, I swear I lost two years of my life span playing that game.

But I also played Space Pirate trainer and that game is the most fun I've had on a game for a good while, shooting robots and dodging incoming slow motion lasers by actually crouching and weaving around them is a pretty badass feeling.

I was kind of sceptical at first but the more different games I try the more I'm becoming convinced now that VR IS the future of gaming. I mean it's the now of gaming really it's just way too expensive for mass appeal to anyone who isn't just a tech head who wants it because it's a new thing. But like seeing Glados from Portal in VR as a full scale head hanging from the ceiling and takes up your entire field of view... VR adds a real first person perspective of how large in game objects actually are and that's what really is the game changer. Yeah moving around in a 3D space is cool but it's the sense of size of everything you get when you're actually IN a game that really changes everything.

^ If you want a panic attack try seeing how VY Canis Majoris is like in full scale VR. Though that may even be too big to comprehend. :P

Last things I played was PlanetSide 2 and Pokemon Go.

I just spawned it and it was blinding me. But I threw Earth towards it and Earth had pretty much disappeared entirely before it even passed it. That's crazy. I just went back to firing giant lasers at parts of Earth I don't like :3

^ I don't consider dinky phone apps to be video games, but technically, yes, it counts.

The last video games I played were:

Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon
7 Days to Die

Yep. Today has been fun. :3

They're videogames, just not very good ones outside of some ports of classic titles that aren't f2p.

Like, square enix has released several good ports of their old games on phones.

As for me? Dust: an elysian tale.

I played GTAV.
I thought it'd be fun to try and play a non VR game on the Vive and see what happens. I was playing the game as normal but I was playing it on a giant 80" home cinema screen in a virtual world instead of on a 32" screen in the real world and it blew my mind.
Basically VR gives everyone a cinema to play their games in from the comfort of their own sofa or bed.
I've always wandered what it would be like to play a game in a cinema and now I can but its in VR which is even cooler!
I cannot tell you in words how cool it is.

7 Days to Die.

My folks and I picked our game up at about 7:30, 8pm, and we played for like, an hour, maybe two, but suddenly the clock says it's midnight. Huh.

I enjoy it, and so do my folks. It's still in alpha, so it's glitchy, but it's pretty fun anyhow.

Last game I played was Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon. :)
