Half-Life: Alyx Locomotion Videos [Mar 02, 2020, 8:21 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Valve offers
three new videos from Half-Life: Alyx showing off gameplay from the
upcoming VR installment in the Half-Life series. The focus is to show the
different ways Alyx will navigate in the game:
The first demonstrates
the game's teleportation locomotion method,
the second shows a
continuous locomotion style, and
the third is what they
call the shift locomotion style. Additionally,
IGN has a new video of their own showing the different locomotion methods
with nine minutes of direct-feed gameplay. Word is: "See how Half-Life looks and
feels in VR, and note that we intentionally switch from Blink movement mode to
Continuous at the 6:06 mark so you can see the different locomotion settings in
action."
That Linus tech tips guy had a video where his VR expert had him try both streaming strategies and while one was improved over the other they said that both were painfully behind. This was while playing beat saber which admittedly would be extra sensitive to that, but I'd see an FPS being the same way. Also they showed moving your head quickly could outpace the stream resulting in black edges, again reduced in the newer version though.
Edit: actually I guess it wasn't beat saber, it was that archery mini game

I guess my original post overstated display lag, but the input seems bad to me especially for a game like this
