**assuming streaming. Satisfactory, my current obsession, runs okay in the Frame but it’s definitely pushing it.

I’ve never had any kind of VR so this is all new to me, but having my game window in a comfortable place with other windows or desktops floating around me is the peak futuristic experience to me.

To reference one of my favorite books, Snow Crash, this is a place I could imagine meeting the Librarian and playing with a model of earth.

I could genuinely imagine working in this thing with the right peripherals.

Edit: flat, not 2D.

Satisfactory doesn't have a VR mode? Kind of surprising, VR modes are easy AF to do.

UEVR works with it, and there's a mod to make the controls more VR native. Still struggling to get that all working on my Linux install, though

I honestly don’t know if I could handle a jumping 5x stinger in VR. Those things are scary as fuck on a TV screen 10 feet in front of me.

Satisfactory has an accessibility option for people with Arachnophobia which makes the Stingers less scary to look at. Specifically, it turns them into like jpegs of cats.

Oh that’s cool. I’m not arachnophobic, I think they are just really well designed.

But I’m a cat dad and I’m not sure I could shoot at pictures of cats - even in VR where my cats can’t see. They’ll know.

The arachnaphobia mode makes the spiders into 2d cat sprites.
