Of course, that's only to be expected, since you're ripping out core
functionality. But if you're tempted to experience the game and don't
have a VR headset, just watch somebody play it on YouTube or
something. You'll get a much better appreciation of what the game is
about than trying it without the headset.

I don't like wearing the VR stuff. :( I'll wait for the holodeck version. :-P

Is it too big for you?

Yes, and I wear an external hearing aid so it doesn't fit. I don't even
like wearing glasses!

Ah, yea.. I wear glasses too, and it makes VR kinda annoying to use.

Humm... I never tried it, but I assumed it would work at least with
short-sighted people, considering the monitors are right in front of
your eyes? Or am I completely off mark there?

  For me at least, its still a bit blurry unless you're wearing your
glasses too. I know there are perscription VR lenses, but obviously
those would be way too much of a hassle unless you own a pair.

I suspect it isn't how close the projection is to the eyes but how "deep" and far away the objects in view are projected to be.  If that makes sense.
