Spent many hours immersed in Elite with my HTC Vive back in the day when the Beyond update dropped. Recently ordered a Bigscreen Beyond to get back into VR. Been needing to finish Alyx and put more hours into the Index wands to justify purchasing them anyhow… What’s new in the past 6 years of Elite Dangerous?
You make it sound like playing in Odyssey (where all the current Thargoid war action is) isn’t VR. The on-foot portion is a flat display. Flying in odyssey supports vr.
