    Hi, I have not tried them, but do they get dizzy for simulators?
    or is it worth spending what they cost?
    I'm going around with the 2 dof if I buy them
    thanks

    With VR and motion simulation it is important that the rig is fast and precise, rather than have large axis movements.

    On small axis movement sims, like mine, you can get away without motion cancellation, which is where the movement of the rig is subtracted from the VR HMD view, but motion cancellation is required on large axis movement rigs.

    The current rift uses inside out tracking, so is not well suited to motion cancellation implementation.

    See here for member related efforts to produce a more robust fork specifically for motion cancellation: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/threads/openvr-motioncompensation.14576/

    A small percentage of people are super sensitive when it comes to motion and VR, particularly in racing games where you have a lot of objects moving in your near, medium and long range view. It is important to take it easy at first, only doing short stints and stopping if you feel the least bit weird.

    I have an Oculus Rift S and am happy with it. When I first added motion to my sim racing I got a lot of motion sickness. Playing in VR with motion for a couple months now and I usually dont get any sickness any more.

    thanks currently i play with a 46 "tv and i wanted to try the oculus i had the samsung vr that iva with the mobile but i did not like them.
    I was wondering why collecting 400 euros is going to take time and I wanted to make a purchase that is worth it. I think I will save and buy them.
