PS VR2: Why virtual reality is still interesting for games
When gaze and head movement become part of game mechanics
VR2 does not want to be just another screen in front of your eyes, but a different way of observing space.
PlayStation VR2 is interesting because it combines OLED screens, eye tracking, haptic functions and controllers that sense the position of the hands. In a good game, therefore, we don't just turn with the analog stick, we look in the corner, grab an object and react to the space around us. It's a difference that's hard to explain in terms of specs, but it's quickly noticeable during gameplay.
The biggest compromise is comfort, space and time of use. Longer sessions are not suitable for some players, and when moving quickly, settings must be found to prevent nausea. Still, racing, exploration and horror are genres where VR still offers an experience that a traditional screen can't quite replicate.
