Beyond this game, the only one for PSVR that I consider a must-own is Resident Evil: Biohazard. There are many other fun games currently out (Megaton Rainfall, Super Hot, Eve Valkyrie, etc) but Resident Evil was the best game available before Skyrim. However, I understand that horror isn't for everyone, and Resident Evil is definitely not for the weak-at-heart. Skyrim has far and away taken #1 spot for best PSVR game.
Skyrim, unlike Resident Evil, is for anyone. With so many ways to play, Skyrim will give every experience a new fresh slate whether it's your 10th new game or your first. But on PSVR, it gives Skyrim life as you've never experienced before in gaming. This is a true open-world RPG where you are in full control, in real-time, in virtual reality.
Like any Bethesda game, you have to expect a few bugs or crashes along the way. Save often, but putting aside the obvious minor issues you'll face, here are my only critiques:
1. I understand how certain people can find the graphics lackluster. For a six year old game, I was more than impressed on my PS Pro but it surely isn't as crystal clear as it would be on PC with graphical enhancement mods.
2. As someone highly susceptible to motion sickness, it took awhile to get comfortable playing Eve Valkyrie and Rigs. However with Resident Evil I never once experienced motion sickness. I attributed it to hours of game-play with other games, but with Skyrim I unfortunately started feeling it about 45 minutes in. Immediately took a couple hour break and tried again only to feel it again with 20 minutes. After a good night sleep, I attempted it again this morning and felt fine after an hour. Motion sickness is something you can get over with continued play but it's not fun when you experience it.
3. Controls using the motion controllers take time getting used to. I mis-clicked quite a few times but was finally getting the hang of it proficiently on my third play. It's also not easy to back-up using a bow. Or you give up using your shield/weapon in your hand used for backing up. Upgraded controllers would help with movement greatly.
Outside of that, I can list 100 positives. As long as you go into this with an open mind, knowing it's six years old, knowing you'll come across a few bugs here and there, knowing the controls aren't perfect, then this will be the best gaming experience you ever have.
This is honestly pretty bad. Textures are awful. I can't even identify objects a short distance away. they should have reduced the draw distance and made closer things look better. I love Skyrim but this is hard to play. I'm not playing on ps4 pro so that could make a difference, but I doubt it. I don't think this should have been released at full price in this state.
- Update: After playing for a while I have discovered that it is also pretty glitchy. when looking at a book or menu screen, the background will randomly go black some times, There are weird places where you can see through the ground, out of place flashes of light, and there was even an invisible dragon. I played this game for over 160 hours on Xbox 360, and it was much better.
It should be noted that it looks better when you are inside buildings / caves. When you are outside things are worse. Trees and plants look like garbage. It seems like the game is misusing resources to render terrain that is very far away, instead of making closer objects sharper.
Other reviewers mentioned motion sickness/headache. Playing with the dualshock, I initially had bad motion sickness to the point of nearly vomiting. After messing with the settings and turning off snap turning, turning on the blinders at the lowest setting, I eventually got it to a comfortable point. After putting about 5 hours into it, I no longer have any motion sickness problem.

The VR version is fun, but I found personally messed with me. I had to take breaks. Although the graphics are good, they're not TV quality in your headset.
I would definitely recommend this for your collection.
