    Would be awesome though the tricky part would be how to trigger the skills without the use of a controller... using a stick with buttons you can wave around, swing or aim as a bow? the idea sounds cool though

    I'm debating on ordering an Oculus Rift instead of buying a new monitor and I'm under the assumption that even if ESO and other games don't support the virtual part of it, I can still use them as a high performance/quality gaming monitor.

    With the spell and particle effects, it would be like playing any game while someone throws glitter dust in your face. I can only imagine how incredible painful it would be for a melee player to see what's going on, while ranged classes are throwing all kind of spell effects around them. It's a nightmare to make out what's beneficial and what's harmful as it is in third person view, in first person it's more or less impossible.

    I'd love it! I already have a surround sound headset that lets me hear things to either side of me or behind me.So my enemies cant sneak up on me.So to have a full VR system in ESO would just advance that immensely!

    First person view was added as an afterthought, and is already sub-par. I'd probably get sick from the VR.

    One reason this would probably not work. How would you see what your typing and what you press unless you know it as much as I know my Playstation controller?

    Yes you can still use keyboard and mouse.

    Monitor I have in my shopping cart is 800 bucks. Buying oculus rift would save me money and give me a better product.

    Like Volkodav said, Sennheiser makes great headphones. I still have my Sennheiser PC350 paired with an Asus Sonar DX soundcard and Dolby 5.1 makes all games come alive. Could hear my enemies sneaking up on me when I played BF4

    Before they add ACTUAL VR support they would need to FIX mouselook in first person. It doesn't work at ALL.

    ESO in Oculus is good but not great in terms of mitigating motion sickness.
    Having a tweakable FOV holds benefit, but FPS drops can cause issues.

    Narrow FOV or less than 60 FPS in basically any game messes with me.

    How is it without the virtual reality switched on? Just using as a 'monitor'?

    There an almost uncountable number of things to fix first to add something that positively will obliterate the performance (because it's already destroyed).

    I'll start with a suggestion: Buy another freaking "megaserver"
    I am the very model of a scientist Salarian, I've studied species Turian, Asari, and Batarian.
    I'm quite good at genetics (as a subset of biology) because I am an expert (which I know is a tautology).
    My xenoscience studies range from urban to agrarian, I am the very model of a Scientist Salarian.
