Game is fun for its 10$. Impressive tracking, some fun moments with big monsters, but gets repetitive pretty quickly.

Worth it for the few moments you'll spend in it though, and it's always fun to shoot skeletons in VR

I'm pretty sure there is just no mic support in Eagle Flight. No idea why, but I've played quite a bit now and never heard a sound, compared to Rigs and Battlezone where you hear people more often than not (thanks to every headset having a built in mic which is unmuted by default).
Alright, so after trying all available demos, I kinda made the weird call to make Harmonix VR my first VR purchase. There are several other games I am really interested in, but for now I would just like to focus on this, as I read some reviews before I bought it and most people are trashing it to hell and back.
The easel mode is genuinely awesome and the best VR feeling I have encountered so far. Its a 3D drawing application with the strokes reacting to the music. To get the bad out of the way: The rest of Harmonix VR is kinda... pointless, which is also the reason why most reviews turned out so incredibly negative. Most of the other stuff is actually pretty shitty, so I will likely never do much in those modes, but I came back to that 3D drawing again and again and again. Drawing around me feels so much more vivid in VR than any of the other VR experiences managed to be so far. Its still a bit janky and probably overpriced for what it is, but omg do I love this ... lets call it application instead of game.
This is making me want Dreams VR sooooo much. If you are a creative type and you like doodling around with different brushes and whatnot, definitely try the Harmonix VR demo. Unfortunately, you will need to finish the pointless first level first, but in the Easel mode, you can already check if this is something for you or not.
I made some screenshots to share, but keep in mind that its of course not even remotely as interesting to look at them as screenshots (and drawing them yourself is even better). I usually tend to load up my playlist with stuff from the USB stick and draw something that the first random song inspires me to.
I really wish Harmonix would continue to expand on this, as this is genuinely the only "game" so far that drags me out of reality into this little VR world that I interact with.
To be fair, on a second viewing, I do see one motion control shot at the very end, and headtracking in the menu footage. But it still strikes me as odd that they used a mouse for the rest of the shooting gameplay. It's a terrible way to demo a VR game.
It can take 30 seconds plus but you will usually find at least one person. Full games are rare but do happen occasionally.
Don't listen to the guy saying you can expect problems. I have a Pro and PSVR and they work amazing together. Yes, the screen has blipped black once for literally 1 second in my many hours using them together. Otherwise? You can expect significant image quality improvements in games that have Pro support, and also can look forward to most if not all games going forward having better graphics. In VR, visual enhancements like these are vital so the Pro and PSVR are a wonderful combination.
Is this referring to me?
Hold on, the Pro has three USB ports??
Damn thought it only had 2, and that's the one thing I really wanted to see upgraded, hmm...
Oh I can believe it. Got so sick of USB hubs that I've been trying to make do with 2 ports. 1 charges a controller, the other is constantly swapping between VR and headset
