I'm sure you wouldn't be alone....
(didn't they announce their looking to incorporate VR around 5 years ago?)
They announced "everything" and the proverbial kitchen sink about 8 years ago.
FD should look at implementing VR on foot as an option. There are workarounds using the camera suite already which seem to allow full 3D headset use.
Even if it induces sickness, just allow it and let players decide. I know nothing in gamedev is "simple", but the original ED VR implementation was legendarily done in a week. So I could be wrong but is it really THAT much harder to enable it for on-foot play (even if it make most players sick)?
Looking at the OP again just made me sad. What was FD thinking with most of Odyssey. It's not an odyssey, it's a mystery.
Like this gem:
Will you have some kind of holographic personal display to read information when you are on foot?
Yes your suit will have similar functions to your ship – more on this in the future
The in-ship HUD would have worked pretty darn good if they just slightly adapted it for on foot. PIP management, heat indicator, 3d radar, nav panel on left, info panel on right, etc. Instead wasted who knows how many hours developing new UI which does not mesh with the old and has non-sense "wheel" interface that often just calls up the old screens or has had to get a keymap to make it usable. They really wanted a difference for the "new era" marketing so bad the marketing infected the game more than the ARX store.
