I finally completed RE7 on TV. I started playing it on VR last year but felt nausea each time (after about 20 minutes) so I eventually gave up on the game. Now that I have completed it, I cannot imagine playing the game from start to finish in VR.

Anyone play it in VR from start to finish?

Only played the opening in VR and it was a nauseating experience.

Admittedly I just cannot handle VR in its current state, and likely the foreseeable future.

To me VR isn't an option for enjoyment but a recommendation of impracticability.

Every minute I played in it was VR. I couldn't imagine NOT playing it in VR.

I don't suffer nausea with VR... but am ashamed to say the experience was just too terrifying for me to finish. Or even get close actually! :*/

You have nothing to be ashamed of, games designed to scare and build grim tension are not for everyone.

Yes, I did. It was one of the most immersive experiences I've ever had. I had issues with the PSVR technically so got rid of it eventually, I wish it was on Steam with VR support so I could do it again however. If not I'll revisit it with PSVR2 one day. The point you could literally peek your head around a corner slightly to see without the enemy seeing you, just like irl, was too realistic.

No HDR passthrough was an absolute dealbreaker for me, messing around with various wires per use was a joke. Also the range, it was just short enough that I couldn't do the couch to my TV, which was a very short distance to begin with.
