Hello all - so I have been looking at the VR headset and have a couple questions.

First one is my main concern. I wear glasses, mainly for distance vision. However, here recently I have found I had to get my prescription tweaked to include bifocals for reading (aging sucks). That being said - can you wear glasses with the VR unit and does it matter if you are nearsighted/farsighted or how does that work?

Second question - I know there are games made primarily for VR but will any game work with it? Obviously I cannot imagine playing something like Diablo but am thinking maybe Doom or Genshin Impact?

    In regards to your second question, I can’t comment on PSVR2 but I’d expect it to be the same. You can use PSVR1 as a normal screen. It’s like playing at a cinema, a big bright screen amongst the blackness.

      This is the case. Nothing fancy in your periphery, it’s just a display in the void. Kinda nice if you are looking to game without any distractions, though I wish they had done something fancier for the second generation like add theater/wilderness/sci-fi type backgrounds to go around the display for a more immersive experience.

      Guess it might be too hard for the console to do when they’re trying to eke out every last ounce of performance from the hardware for those games.
