I'm personally waiting to see if it will come out again for VR. Bethesda always sells a new copy of the game to have VR support.

The game barely runs in pancake mode and their response to that was "get a better computer". I'd hate to see what they would expect to even try to run Starfield in VR.

Also, their VR versions are, frankly, not very good. You absolutely have to tweak and mod them to get them to run well and be enjoyable.

So far i very much enjoyed non moded skyrim VR and fallout 4 VR and they run really well on my very good last gen gpu "3090".

Dude the 3090 is a 24GB MONSTER of a GPU that cost $1500 USD when it came out

Yea. i got a good deal on marketplace. I'm extremely happy with it. :)

Keep in mind, they released in the 10X0 era. Also, I found Skyrim needed ini tweaking to bring back the view distance. Even still, compared to most native VR games, I found the interactions lackluster without mods.

They got rid of their VR internal teams, so probably not.

That sucks. I was really looking forward to more VR games from bethesda. I know a lot of people work on flat screen to VR mods that are often better then what the studios would do so i might still be able to play it in VR someday.

Give it 10 years.

[–] Dindonmasker@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I'm honestly fine if it takes 10 years.
