      OkashiYujin in Multiplayer Games everyone needs to have the same controls. Same rules for everyone. Not that I really care because I don’t own a vor headset and this wont change until it’s way cheaper but at the same time has a good quality. And the need for a beefy compute is also a turndown for me The VR world will probably see me in 5-10 years.

    About the motion smoothing in the videos, Beat Saber's CameraPlus mod smooths the monitor output so Valve is probably using a similar method to make these gameplay videos look pretty. I wonder if it will be available in settings for people who value pretty recordings over higher frame rates (as I imagine having to have a separate smoothened camera for the monitor will increase GPU demand).

    Honestly, I've always prefered both. The Doctor Who game offers this and I found it the most comfortable so far, Boneworks did have a bad habit of being caught on things due to smooth movement.
    By both I mean being able to have both movement options at the same time, so sometimes I can teleport if I find that easier if I'm doing puzzles, but during combat teleporting just would feel wrong, I wouldn't have the challenge I'd want.

      i don't know if I'm a big fan of developers using multiple movement systems. It means they are hedging their bets and not spending the time and energy to fully commit to ONE style and then constructing their gameworld around it. Level design and world interaction cannot be seamless (or realistic) if you can teleport whenever you like instead of virtually walking.

      @@crazypath573 It is probably safest though. VR is still new and as such, there aren't many conventions when it comes to control. While having only one movement option could mean more tailored level design, it might a) deter people who prefer other movement styles, or b) make it less future proof when a definitive movement style is possibly chosen.

    "Maybe to reduce sickness" - it literally says it in the menu, " the most comfortable". Teleportation is the most comfortable in terms of motion sickness. Black screen in between is the most comfortable, the can't just blink you into new position because they want character to actually spend a second sliding from one spot to another so you dont go through walls and AI knows you moved through and all that you talked about in another video. Shift is the same just no black screen, it's a bit less comfortable but sitll good for majority of players. Also it's NOT slower, as the time it takes you to slide from one point to another is the same time you spend with the black screen. Unless they deliverately made it slower.
    Continuous is yes the best but yeah. It took me a while to adjust. I actually am prone to motion sickness but was surprised that in VR I had almost none of it. Only took me a few days to adjust and I can play Boneworks for like 2-3 hours straight. I get physically tired before any sickness. Only some movements may cause me some disorientation but not sickness. Also the "VR hands" syndrome for the next day, if you dont know about it, google, its quite fun :D Basically when you look at your real hands but dont feel like they belong to you.

    One of my favorite current VR games is Windlands 2 (and OG Windlands), because the majority of the movement isnt just a joystick or teleporting, but rather you swinging around, while you arent doing much with your body, the little amount you are doing makes it feel real, (You essentially swing like spiderman, but with grapelinghooks in a fantasy-like world, its dope). I hope more games inovate on movement methods, instead of stagnating with just teleport or joystick.
    (Fyi if you wanna try these games, you dont need to play Windlands 1, to follow along in Windlands 2, Windlands 1 doesnt really have a story, but Windlands 2 is roughly a 4-6 hour campain, that is co-op-able up to 4 players, I recommend just getting Windlands 2 and some mates to play with, its amazing)

    Other theory on the stabilization.

    Your last comment about the camera smoothness is interesting for a few reasons. Im sure some smoothness was probably added in post so Valve can make their trailers look nice. But some of the most popular and common mods in moddable VR games have been centered around camera smoothing and increasing fov. This was most notable in relatively sedentary games like Beat Saber, because the unnatural smoothing motion only has to compensate for a little movement. These mods can reduce nausea, and so i feel it's understandable that Valve might have built-in some natural camera smoothing options on top of tailer editting. Camera smoothing might not mix as well in contiguous movement because of faster, choppier movement, but the game was originally made with teleport in mind, so a scalable camera smoothing system may have long been in the game.

    The gameplay was likely recorded using a screen debug camera that tracks the head camera with extra smoothing in the engine (which might even be exposed as a feature for streamers and youtubers). It's unlikely that it's stabilized in post, because there's no reason to try to patch up the footage with machine vision when you have access to the way it was rendered.
