Off Topic / HTC Vive Review
« on: June 02, 2016, 12:00:42 AM »
What's been going on?
For the past couple of days, I've been playing with the HTC Vive my step dad got for the house! Everything is AWESOME!
Games I've played: AudioSheild, Catteral Damage, Job Simulator (If you don't know any of these games, search it up on Steam)
Quick Game Reviews
AudioSheild: Wow! Any music from your PC or on Soundcloud! Riiiight on the beat! Epic!
Catteral Damage: Meow! Teleport as a cat. Okay. Rawr! Knocking everything over! And this is a bad hazard for viewers and animals, I keep hitting them!
Job Simulator: Blasting! This is better than adults call "work"! Great!
Other Info
Picking games are pretty easy and settings you can adjust via monitor are good.
Problems encountered: Callibration may go wonky and you will fly to who knows where in game, all of a sudden freezing (on a GTX 1080) very overwhelming, and makes you nauseous, some crashing on some games at some points, no big deal. Although The Lab keeps crashing a lot, Steam VR may just break totally, we sweat a lot in-game and get marks after taking off HTC Vive
What we learned in setup: Mirrors mess with the sensors BIG time
Side effects (that I encountered, and are actually cool): Taking of the headset, it felt weird right away that I was back in the real world, Later, after finishing the Vive for the night, I closed my eyes and saw the menu for Steam VR, and at other points some games that I've played on it, and I had an illusion that a border appeared
Overall: HTC Vive is very amazing! Watching it in videos won't amaze you as much as actually using it!
