I don't want to be overly negative/critical, but an observation: Facebook's decision to require Facebook logins for all Oculus products seems like a very good reason to branch out support other VR devices ASAP. Mandatory Facebooks is a concern for privacy-focused private users, but double a concern for work-related tooling.

Thanks I think I've seen that, unfortunately I suffer from extreme simulation sickness, can't even play Minecraft and hence I'm exploring non-VR direct display glasses.

But, those who have no issues with VR might indeed find immersedvr useful.

VR motion sickness comes pretty much entirely from games which require your body to move with a controller rather than actual movement. If you are just using it as a virtual monitor then its very unlikely you will feel sick.

The real problem is no VR headset has a resolution high enough to come even close to what a normal monitor would provide dpi wise.

FWIW I also get extreme motion sickness with VR. Except the Oculus (Edit: Oculus Quest). I don't know why, but that one doesn't bother me at all. I've literally used it for hours at a time with no problems.

Now, that's very interesting. John Carmack said in an interview couple of years back that simulation sickness is the foremost problem to solve in VR, perhaps they have addressed that in Quest?

Thanks, now I'm intrigued. I'll have to checkout Quest soon.

Possibly the computer you were using was not able to keep up a consistent frame rate or your experience is with one of the oculus dev kits which were low spec.

Oculus is a company. Which model are you referring to?

Sorry, you're right. The Quest.

Minecraft VR? I tend to not get VR sickness, but Minecraft was an exception. The movement of the character is really not designed for VR, it is pretty fast and there's lots of verticality.

PC Minecraft gives me simulation sickness[1], I've seen few others mention it for the game and changing bobbing parameters didn't help much.

Fascinating.

I guess you have to find a low weight VR set though.

I completely get it because of how easy it is to get lost in the VR experience and forget about the outside worlds. Seems great for productivity. Might have to try it out sometime.
