So I literally picked up a psvr 2 today.
Got the star wars demo which was fun.
But I bought job simulator.........but I had no idea you needed 2m x 2m space which I didn't have. So that really sucked.
I had to fuck with the play space to get it to work, but that game clearly wants you to stand in a large area and walk around I guess.
-So what are some MUST buy games for this?
Specially, NOT requiring lots of space to move around, and ideally, sitting would be nice. The star wars game worked ok sitting.
I can stand, but I don't want to play all day standing lol.
-And in the future, how can I tell which games need space to play before I buy them?
RE8 and GT7 are by far the most immersive (I'd argue they're pretty much required purchases for new to VR players - even if you hate horror, I'm a wimp - I'm a few hours in RE8 and doing ok in shorter sessions - the castle is constantly amazing me with the detail in the rooms and courtyard/etc).
Moss Book 1 & 2 are also really well done. Synth Riders Experiences (DLC) are highly recommended (gives some their defining VR moment). Tetris Effect/Thumper both good ports to VR. Rez Infinite highly recommended. Puzzling Places (if you want a chill game), Demeo is supposed to be quite fun, Townsmen is a pseudo Populous type game.
Upcoming Switchback, Saints and Sinners, Walkabout Mini Golf, and RE4 VR.
Pretty sure Job Simulator is getting patch to fixed that room scale requirement. I believe you can just zap yourself a roomscale sized room through objects and can play normally without moving - might want to try that and see if it works. I have a circular mat to let me know if I'm walking too far, so I don't really need the warnings so my roomscale goes through tables and couches etc. But the store pages do list the play methods available for a game (sitting/standing and room scale).
I find some games work better standing and some sitting - so if you want to do a longer VR sessions mixing a standing and sitting one is probably best over a super long session in a standing game. RE8 is standing for me because accessing the weapons works way better and moving your head/body and aiming helps a lot too. Synth Riders would obviously be standing. Stuff like GT7 is better sitting. Moss is sitting, and Puzzling Places as well. So there's enough choices for mixing the standing and sitting games together I feel.
