For perspective, the Special Edition struggles to maintain 30 frames. “It does inspire some significant awe when you first put on the PlayStation VR headset (the exclusive home of Skyrim VR for the time being), though it’s hard not to be distracted by all of the dramatic sacrifices in graphics quality that had to be made for Skyrim VR to run at the necessary 90 frames per second on a PlayStation 4. It's an absolute joy to see this world from this perspective for anyone who's spent a lot of time here. I don’t have a particular hangup about spiders, but seeing the huge Frost Spiders in the early dungeons come at me sent chills down my spine. Creatures looking big on screen because is one thing towering over you is another. It’s definitely great virtual tourism in a familiar land of dragons and magic, but this perspective doesn’t do the famously clumsy combat any favors.I never really appreciated the size and scale of Skyrim until I was standing on the Throat of the World, or seeing a dragon up close. Since then it’s become clear that adapting conventional first-person games to VR wouldn’t be easy, and Bethesda’s Skyrim VR is an example of how many of those challenges remain unsolved.
It was primarily games with fantastic worlds – games like BioShock, Half-Life 2, and, naturally The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. When VR headsets became a reality, I made a list of games I wanted to experience from that perspective.
