FFXIV with VR ability

[Clicked]

Because then they have to support VR indefinitely which is going to be a constant resource usage. What's the ROI here? Also this game is based on clicking buttons to do fancy abilities. That's both disorienting and feels completely unnatural in VR.

Gold Saucer VR Mini game anyone?

That sci-fi anime version have headgears capable to send signals directly to the brain, while our reality is just an helmet with stereoscopic vision and audio.
The only damages you can get may be the audio too loud (for ears) and the known photosensitive epilepsy that may happen even on our usual monitors.

About XIV as VRMMO, I think it is more likely we will get in the future a new FF title tailored for it, because XIV wasn't made for VR and adaptation of a game to things they are not planned from the start, aren't that good (and simple) as something done with VR in mind from the start. Just think at flying, new maps have it but adaptation of old maps to flying is something the devs are thinking about, but requiring much work and even them dunno if it will ever be made.

isn't that ff14 already have first person view since the first time?

isn't that ff14 already have first person view since the first time?

It does, but its not the same as VR, since it turns the game into a 3d Game combined with the ability to turn your head and 3D audio, it really puts you into the game like your really there. First person view can't do that it just makes me feel like I'm looking through moving painting.

The amount of people that would use VR for Lakshmi EX... >.>

Swimming lends itself well as a locomotion system...On top of gathering, the sense presence afforded by VR would be a delight in gardening, crafting, etc., and securely scary for blowing wind whilst crying wrack aloft with harness on one's back>:"

Regarding sickness, having a body-any body-goes a long way in combating the nausea.

An option to undertake the perspective of the minions of one's friends would be illuminating in pondering the existential implications wrought by the "simulation theory" while performing with equally enhancing effect the duties we have hitherto taken for granted in our little pets.

White mage casts Holy.
Everyone with VR is blinded for life.

If they do that I want an HD texture back.

I wouldn't recommend VR with deferred rendering. Lack of proper AA will kill your eye sight.
