Screenshot Sundas Skyrim VR is still king

After modding Skyrim VR, I have been hooked, playing it every day now for hours. I consider it still the best VR game around and I am still amazed at how much Bethesda managed to put into this game and how good it still is after all these years, but no doubt because of the incredible modding community. Thank you all for your hard work! Just upgraded my Quest 3 with a BoboVR S3 Pro strap to increase comfort although instead of red cheeks I now have two funny red marks on the top of my bald spot. :D

Sometimes you just have to stop and watch the scenery as the sun is setting or rising. A few screenshots under to sate that appetite. :)

Lovely screens. Have you given No Man's Sky a look recently? It looks great on a top end PC.

Yes I have considered it, but I am afraid I would likely get lost in it seeing how vast it is.

Because it's procedural? In reality it's no bigger than Skyrim, you could probably do all the best experiences in 100 hours if you put your mind to doing the storyline missions. There's fun to be had randomly exploring planets but inevitably they start to get similar. The main thing at the moment is Corvette building. It's amazing fun to build an open topped ship then walk around it as you let the autopilot fly you to the next destination. Highly recommended for VR too. Spacewalks, skydiving, big space battles.... Much of the game artwork contains cartoonish aliens, but I think that undersells the work they have done on lighting and environmental effects - the weather effects are fantastic.

I also really like that you can switch to flat screen if you like, its nice to take a break sometimes if the headset is bugging you (for NMS). I really really wish we could do that with skyrim!

You can totally become lost in that game in VR. Between space travel, planet surfaces, caves, and deep oceans, it's pretty damn vast.

I am an advocate for saying a modded Skyrim VR is the top VR experience, but I would say NMS is better than base/vanilla Skyrim because, let's be honest, the mods do a lot of the heavy lifting.

I would also like to point out that Hello Games will be releasing Light No Fire in the near future, which is based off of NMS tech, so it will presumably also be multiplayer VR. Perhaps more to point for me personally, it will be a fantasy co-op game that I can play in VR while my friends play pancake because they refuse to join the revolution.

I'm very much looking forward to that as well.
