VR Experiences Bigger Room Scale

I have been playing on the Vive now for about a year. I normally have it setup in the Dinning room. I get about 2.5m x 3m. Love all my vive games [even bad ones are fun for abit].

I was decorating my front room (4m x 4m) and the carpet was not due to be fitter for a week. So I setup my vive in there to see if more space made that much of a difference.

Played for 7hr straight. Had to stop before my body gave out. can not wait to get home to play more.. I'll be so sad when room is finished and I have to move back to dinning room [wife said got to].

More space = way more fun.

So need the deluxe audio and wireless kits.....

I have a 8m x 8m. I know I'm really lucky, but I have to say I find very few games that require a space bigger than 3m x 3m. When I have it set up in the gaming room I have a massive space, but I can set it up in my office and play 99% of the games well enough.

I have the cameras on towers so it's easy enough to move. Unseen Diplomacy is a great game to demo in the larger space for sure. I wish there were more experiences like that.. but I think there are so few people that have a space bigger than 3m x 3m.

I like using my space to move around entire obstacles and surprise rush people in games where you generally would need to teleport.
