Can you sit about 5 feet from your TV? That seems to be a sweet spot for PSVR, and it seems to break down around 10. At 5 feet can you comfortably hold your arms out and rotate? While the Vive uses movement around the room as a game mechanic, PSVR I'm finding to be more of a stationary experience (whether you're sitting or standing). Rarely do I take more than a step in either direction.

It's $34, and I'm about to finish off the main quest at about 7 hours. Then you can decide if you want to find the tablets that are scattered about the worlds (40 in each of the 3 worlds). There's also time challenges that I'm looking forward to doing. Overall I'd imagine I'll spend about 15-20 hours in it, but I'm taking a bit of a completionist approach.
The cost/time ratio is something I'm finding doesn't translate as well to VR games for me. I used to say my baseline was that of a movie. If I could get $12/2hrs I was happy. Now I look at games like Arkham VR and I can't help but notice they don't meet that baseline. At the same time – and I'm trying to temper expectations and not get too hyperbolic here – I feel these might be some of my favourite gaming experiences of my entire life.
Windlands especially is unlike any game I've ever experienced. There's tension to the point that I literally sweat (yes I'm aware sweat is a byproduct of motion sickness, but tension is definitely a factor). I find playing for an hour is incredibly exhausting, especially if you're standing. There's whole sections in the game where I don't actually breathe as I swing precariously from ledge to ledge. That's not something I've ever felt before, and it is
insane.
