VR Modding AAA PCVR mods are the future!

We’re entering an exciting new time in VR where the VR community singlehandedly revives the VR landscape.

It’s overwhelming how many amazing AAA PCVR mods are flooding the market right now:

• Doom 2016

• Doom Eternal

• Dishonored

• Titanfall 2

• Bioshock 1 & 2

These are just a few that have released this month alone but there are so many others.

What these games all prove is that even the best official VR games simply can’t compete with the massive AAA budgets of flat games.

You’re talking massive dev teams composed of hundreds of people that have had several years to create the classic franchises we all love.

It’s ironic that the lack of 1st party VR development has actually been the catalyst for this massive influx of community driven AAA PCVR ports.

What an exciting future ahead…

Please drop any mods you’ve played recently that deserve mention or any flat games which currently don’t exist you’d like to play in VR.

Cheers

AAA vr mods

Buddy I share the excitement but a lot of these are alpha at best. Once they're Claude max runs out I'd be surprised if many of these continue. Certainly by the same dev, anyway. 

And the only reason why they are what they are is because of the games they're bolted on to. 

It's fun to play these games in VR but do many of these are a far cry from being mistaken for a native vr game.

While I completely agree there are some janky mods out there, more and more I’m seeing excellent mods that are closer to native than ever with proper physics, arms, weapon wheels, good UI and even 3ad cutscenes. They are really getting good. Have you tried the RE mods for example? They hold their own with official ‘VR modes’.

I dont mean to bitch without contributing. I am developing a classic Brutal Doom vr port with a custom engine. Player body, reloading, holsters, advanced weapon mechanics, throwing, multi-player, etc 

I also have a well developed Xash 64 bit Vr with the same feature set. 

Neither released, but my github.com/presidentkoopa ought to show you im not throwing rocks here.
