Horror games are supposed to be creepy and claustrophobic, maybe make your
palms sweat. They're not supposed to make you feel like you want to keel over
and vomit.

恐怖遊戲不應該讓你覺得想昏倒或者想噁吐。


On Monday, Sony announced that three big-name game developers would bring
their hottest franchises to the PlayStation VR headset. You'd be able to play
Batman, Final Fantasy and Resident Evil in virtual reality, Sony promised.

蝙蝠俠、FF、生化危機是已確定會發行VR遊戲


But two of those three big games are surprisingly disappointing -- and the
third one is actually making E3 attendees feel sick to their stomachs.

但其中兩款在試玩時讓人感到空前失望，第三款則讓人甚至感到不舒服想吐
(本篇皆原作者本人意見)


By the time I tried Resident Evil 7 today at Sony's E3 booth, word had
already spread. I'd heard from half a dozen journalists and influencers that
something wasn't quite right about Capcom's VR horror experience. I knew that
if I tried it, I'd probably regret it for the rest of the day.

當時關於生化7VR的一些流言已經到處傳了，作者本人決定親自下海測試


But I had to do it, because Capcom had done something no other major video
game developer has been ballsy enough to do -- bring their entire flagship
game to virtual reality instead of just a demo. (In case you missed the news,
you'll be able to play Resident Evil 7, beginning to end, in a PlayStation VR
headset.)

雖然流言不少，但是Capcom是少數大廠有那個LP把他們的主力遊戲以VR呈現並且可以
游玩，並不是展示一些預告或試玩。


At first, it was fine. In fact, it was pretty damn cool. Resident Evil looks
great in VR, and it's incredibly immersive. You can actually peek around
corners before you walk into a room, or quickly look behind you to see if
you're being stalked. And the developers, knowing this, take full advantage.

在還沒開始暈以前，一切都非常的棒


But then, I started to sweat. I got a little dizzy. Suddenly, a huge headache
came out of nowhere.

但是作者開始流汗、頭昏，嚴重的頭痛


What I'm describing is known as "simulator sickness," and it's not new or
unique to Resident Evil. Lots of VR games can make people feel sick if they
feel they've been turned in a direction that doesn't match up to the real
world. Some are more sensitive then others, and I've had people tell me they
never get sick at all in VR. (Yet some of those people tell me Resident Evil
made them sick, too.)



It's not hard to pinpoint the problem. Resident Evil's control scheme, which
allows you to rotate the camera without actually turning your head (or press
a button to instantly "crouch") is the kind of thing that tends to cause a
flare-up in people who get sick in VR.

使用搖桿而非親自蹲下，比較會造成視角移動造成的3D暈


To its credit, Capcom has some time to figure it out: Resident Evil 7 doesn't
ship till the end of January, over seven months from now, and a Capcom rep
says the company's still figuring out the VR controls.

生化7在明年1月底前不會出，Capcom說公司仍然在想辦法解決VR的控制


So that's Resident Evil. What's wrong with Final Fantasy and Batman in VR?
They're what we like to call VR experiences -- not actual games you'll play
more than once.

接下來介紹蝙蝠俠以及FF體驗，"Ｖ Ｒ 體 驗"


The Final Fantasy XV VR Experience is literally just a disembodied gun that
you shoot at a Final Fantasy monster while several other Final Fantasy
characters bash on it with swords, often passing right through the creature
with no effect. That's followed by a brief sequence where you're seated in a
car next to one of the ladies of Final Fantasy, with nothing to do but stare
at the leather seats and the dusty road.




Batman: Arkham VR is a bit better -- you get to don the Batsuit, throw
Batarangs, fire grapple guns and descend into the Batcave for target
practice, then analyze a crime scene with other cool tools -- but developer
Rocksteady describes it as an hour-long experience with another hour of
replay value. If you were expecting a whole new Batman: Arkham game where you
traverse Gotham City in VR, you're out of luck.

蝙蝠俠不錯，但是非常短，開發商說只會有一個小時的標準遊玩時間，以及第
二輪的一個小時(可能是雙結局?)，如果想體驗整個高譚市你可能會失望的



None of this means there aren't great VR games in Sony's PlayStation VR
line-up. I'm a big fan of Battlezone, EVE: Valkyrie, Rez Infinite, Job
Simulator and more. My colleague Ashley Esqueda tried five fantastic indie
games for PlayStation VR that you'll absolutely want to watch out for.

這上面這些體驗並不代表SONY不會有很好的PSVR遊戲，等看看吧


But if you were hoping traditional big-name game developers would just stroll
onto PlayStation with the killer apps for VR, you should probably know
they're still in the experimentation phase right now.

但是你想在近期就玩到3A等級的VR遊戲，應該是不太可能
開發商現在都只是在實驗階段而已
