    I’d take my $100 quest 2 over any number of the nicest monitors. VR took the immersion of Sim driving to a level I can’t come back from.

      VR is definitely better than widescreen wrap-around monitors for gaming immersion. I’ve tried both and they are both great but VR is better. I noticed that I could drive significantly better in Assetto Corsa the first time I tried in VR mode, and I could actually get close to winning for a change. But it was a PITA to get working

        both great but VR is bette

        Which games are good with multi-monitors? Ive been running triple setup for a while now for productivity, but I cant think of one game that scales well across monitors, though Im generally not into sims/racing and afraid of buying something to spend 2hrs refund period fiddling with settings only to find it wont work aftterall. Which one would you suggest to try?

          Flight sims, because vr has too little resolution to read the instruments. Though putting zoom on your hotas can make vr work and then it’s obviously awesome as well

          But the real answer is eve online

    Browsing the sim forums are filled with people throwing hate that the core software is 29 dollars on sale and they refuse to buy it, then post with pride the 1500 dollars they paid for a SINGLE PEDAL!

    Just like any hobby, you don’t need the latest and greatest to enjoy it. Look at music for example. The amount of incredible albums made on shitty gear likely matches that of artists with the best gear money can buy.

    Just have fun and enjoy the process. A direct drive wheel won’t make you a better driver, but racecraft will. 🤙🤙🤙
