Great review and set of bits of advice. This is my first VR headset ever, and I must admit that I was expecting that the resolution would be pretty much the same as we experience on modern TVs and monitors; I appreciate you being upfront and making this statement, a lot of reviewers failed to do the same.

@@nicknasty14 I'm not exactly disappointed, it is still fun and immersive, but I got the feeling that based on all the advertising and reviews I ended up having higher expectations. It amazes me how most of the reviewers simply decided to not talk about the actual resolution, instead, they just praised it. But I hear you man, hopefully you can find a way to enjoy your headset.

Great job 👏

Really helpful video. I got PSVR2 on launch day but learned some new things here. You are spot on about expectations. I don't know why I expected the picture quality to be flawless like a 4k TV. It's a definite improvement over PSVR but my expectations were unrealistic going into PSVR. Despite that, I absolutely love VR2 and have played it almost every day.

@felipecarvalho4767 Жыл бұрын

This is my first vr experience and although I was blown away by the immersion, I was expecting the image quality to be the same as modern 4k TVs. The mura effect bothers me sometimes when I'm not fully immersed to the point I though I had a defective unit. I'm glad to know it's normal. Thanks for the honest review. I still recommend PSVR2, just manage your image quality expectations

@woogaloo Жыл бұрын

Tempering expectations I think was a huge point - even for me. I didn't know what to expect other than having the PSVR1 and after using it for 2 days it was a huge upgrade. It does take a bit of time to get VR legs, but I'm enjoying it a lot. Zombieland has been so fun just trying to do better each time.

@b.s.7693 Жыл бұрын

Very good and helpful explanations, not only for PSVR2, also for VR headsets in general. One more thing: if your are still curious why 4K in VR isn't that sharp like 4K on a screen, google for "pixel per degree". To give a glimpse: When we talk about the sharpness of an image, we must not talk about resolution, we actually mean pixel density. Also, a VR headset uses a lot of pixel "twice" to create the stereoscopic view (binocular overlap). So in total, you need a lot more pixel in a VR headset to get the same visual quality like on a flat screen. This is why VR needs so much rendering power.

@mickbundy Жыл бұрын

Part of the problem was Sony using the Social Screen output for marketing footage which is upscaled vs the halved resolution in the HMD (half split for each eye). All the marketing footage looked very crisp from it vs other VR headsets which had direct feed captures. Those of us with PCVR weren't expecting something equal to a 4k tv, yet are still satisfied with price and features.

Great video! I came from no previous VR experience and like many others.. with how other outlets talk about how crystal clear everything was.... I was a little unsure if some of the outer edge blurriness or the blurriness at a distance or in motion was down to my eyesight. I'm now allot more confident these drawbacks are normal and can just enjoy it for what it is. I'm really enjoying it and Im glad I jumped into VR. 😁

@FelipeMach Жыл бұрын

Amazing video Mystic! Great! I started in VR back 2016 with PSVR 1 and few years later jumped to Quest 2 and PCVR (using wired Quest 2). For sure I like my PSVR2 and the eye tracking experience, the controls, first party games and so. I hardly notice screen door effect and mura is ok for me, but the reprojection is a real crime for a pretty game as Call of the Mountain. Hoping they update this game to run in native 90hz. Pavlov, for exemple, is so smooth in PSVR2!

I was shocked in a bad way when I tried the original PSVR because the image quality looked so bad, while in all the trailers they looked crystal clear. I actually thought I had a defected unit, but it turned out that's how it was. So it is good to now how VR2 actually looks and also I appreciate the actual game footage so I can see the quality of the image myself. They still use much clearer video for the trailers, sadly.

This is the best video I've seen so far that explains what you should expect to see based on the limitations of the hardware. I got a PSVR2 last week and it was my first ever time using a VR headset, and I have to say I was so underwhelmed - not least because I had no idea about the 'sweet spot' I had to find. Now that my expectations have been reset and I've found the sweet spot I think it looks amazing. GT7 in particular is so spectacular. I just wish I'd seen this video before my first play session though.

@Rocksteady72a Жыл бұрын

Frensel lens. It's the one thing to know beforehand. It causes significant chromatic aberration on the edges of your vision, and general blur anywhere but the very center of your vision. On top of that, the sweetspot is incredibly small and if you don't have a bump in the back of your head for the headset to hang onto, it'll frequently slip out of that spot no matter how tight it is. These two problems combine to give someone like me, who's been playing VR since late 2017, nausea for the first time in VR. Had to return it, despite being excited for my preorder :/

This is the best “expectations” video I’ve seen on psvr2 so far. I own the headset and from my perspective as someone completely new to VR, if you’re reason for buying was your interest in the experience part of VR gaming then this headset and the experience won’t disappoint you. If you’re used to cranking the resolution and setting up on a high powered PC to get cutting edge performance and results then VR might not be ready for you. Also the best advice I’ve heard on finding the sweet spot (and I’ve searched manyyyy posts and videos because it took me days to figure out the sweet spot process) was to calibrate your headset comfort by putting the headset on, closing your eyes, and just making it generally comfortable. Then turning in the headset, shut your left eye and focus on the middle “o” in the “hold the controller” welcome message that floats on your screen. Make sure they “o” is crystal clear. When you open both eyes you should be ready to go. If not, try moving the lenses forward more (or back). Cheers all!

I thought, "what am I missing here? Is mine faulty? Maybe its my eyes?". Don't get me wrong I'm really enjoying the headset, the ease of setup makes it worth the price of admission alone for me, but all the IGN style reviews I saw kind of set me up for dissappointment. Everyone considering buying one needs to see this first lol

I found having bright light in the room helps the tracking without using the border on TV. I have an oled so I don't want to burn in the border. I had my light dimmed down and CotM would lose tracking constantly. Now I have my light turned all the way up when using vr. I feel the more used to vr I get, the less impact the stereoscopic 3d has. Like it almost becomes 2d to me. Getting your eyes centered vertically on the adjust visibility screen is very important for a clearer image.
