No Man's Sky in VR 7 Years Later

No Man's Sky got a VR update for PSVR2 the same weekend that Starfield came out. Seven years worth of No Man's Sky updates and DLC instantly became playable in VR. And No Man's Sky in VR is now an endless gameplay generation machine. gamersupps.gg/Habie

[@Oldsurfer65]

I’m new to VR. Just got a PSVR2 last week and No Man’s Sky was my first “oh my god!” moment. PSVR2 tip of the week. Turn the brightness down to 20ish % and it dramatically reduces or even eliminates motion sickness. Has something to do with image persistence

[@shapeshifter-theamorphousg3264]

Never heard of that helping with motion sickness but i don't suffer from it anyway. You do kill the HDR by turning it all the way down for sure but to each his own ofcourse

[@Oldsurfer65]

Yeah, i should have clarified that i had more of an issue with Horizon Call of the Mountain and turning the brightness down helped a lot. I didn’t have as much of an issue with No Man’s Sky.

[@naterod]

I’m one of the lucky ones that doesn’t get that

[@blueninja012]

I started playing vr at a time when some windows update had made it completely unplayable. I am a stubborn individual. I was troubleshooting in vr in 5 fps for hours, maybe even over the course of multiple days. when I got out I got motion sick from real life being too smooth. but I don't get motion sick in vr at all, so 10/10 I recommend this strategy to gain your vr legs

[@gransacowea9240]

I think it's unfair how different is to see someone in VR and being there. sometimes it looks awful when you see it in a video. but feeling it, being there, dude... i always have so much fun playing in VR

[@robjsmiles]

Yeah that foveated rendering trick isn't kind to recording, but it definitely looks and feels buttery smooth in the headset

[@haganlife]

The first time I walked up to my ship VR it shocked me at how big it was!

There is no way to reliably translate vr footage to 2d, because the scaling just doesn’t work

[@christophersmith6245]

Your No Man’s Sky content is legit my favourite of all time. I’ve just gotten back into playing this game 2 days ago and then you drop this. 10/10 experience, love your videos etc. etc.

[@jonny45k44]

Been playing No Mans Sky lately.... But seeing how amazing it is in VR is making me so jealous

[@tinminator8905]

Don't worry, the VR port is shitty and less than 3dof IMO. Your character does not turn your head, you have to manually turn with your controller stick, which makes me motion sick. If you acidentally walk half a meter away from your character your hands are misplaced and your hud is in an awkward spot. Overall it was the worst VR experience I have ever had. Flat screen No man's sky is so much better.

[@Kondiqq]

@@tinminator8905 I love VR in No Man's Sky. The trick is to play in seated mode. I like playing other VR games standing, but when you launch NMS, you expect to play for longer periods of time and for me, standing for 3-12 hours (my average session in NMS in VR when I launch it during weekend, so I don't play it that often) wouldn't be possible. Seating while playing this game works perfectly for me. In seated mode you turn your character with a stick anyway and I use snap turn. My computer chair can turn, so I can adjust slightly for the interface and the game is just amazing in VR for me - the scale makes a huge difference. Actually, I can't stand the flat version of the game - I hate it. I tried playing it before I had VR (using gamepass) and everything felt like a mobile game interface and I didn't like controls at all. After using VR for a while, I was looking at some videos with best VR games, and NMS appeared in most of them, so I decided to just buy it on Steam, try it in VR and return it if I didn't like it (I didn't have gamepass at the moment). And well... I immediately felt in love with the VR version. It took some tweaking for graphics options to be nice and performance not to suffer in more demanding areas, but it was well worth it. I also tried playing in flatscreen later to make some proper screenshots of my main base planet, but in flat, even with maxed out graphics settings, it just doesn't look good for me, like at all. In VR it's like magic for me, you feel like you're there, you see the blades of grass moving in a proper scale (on flatscreen it looks really flat and small) and it's just entirely different game. Flying a ship in VR isn't enjoyable, though. I wish they did the controls like in VTOL VR or at least gave us an option to use HOTAS (I love flying in Elite: Dangerous with HOTAS). But exploring planets on foot is amazing and that's what I love in this game. For flying n space I have Elite: Dangerous.

[@AV8R_1]

I found a trick to interacting with objects in VR, If you are using left thumbstick to walk. - When you walk up to an object to interact, like your ship or harvested flora, rather than pushing the interact button and raising your right hand to pull or interact, Simply use the interact button to grab, and then the left stick to walk backwards. The interaction is much less finicky, and occurs nearly instantly.

[@spanky9854]

Blew my mind when you brought up the loading screen vs travel time i never thought of it like that but you're so right, thanks for the entertainment

[@Stierenkloot]

It's not a loading time though. It's just to give a sense of scale. If everything was a teleport then you'd have the exact same loss of immersion starfield has. And also big difference between loading screens is that you're actually still playing. Is driving on the highway in GTA a loading screen? Don't think so

[@atimholt]

I need to get into No Man's Sky in VR. The game has never appealed to me in the broader strokes (aesthetic, etc.), but a lot of the smaller details look like things I should enjoy.

It's crazy how different starfield and no mans sky feel considering they keep getting compared. Starfield is a lot more fun imo but no mans sky has the sense of exploration you can't really get in another game. Wish it didnt look like water color art tho

The art direction in NMS is based heavily on old science fiction book covers. I can see it not being for everyone, but I really like it, and I appreciate it having a really unique style compared to most games, let alone space games.
