A lot of people might not know of a new thing called occulus rift. It is a virtual reality headset that you strap onto your head and it allows your whole field of vision to become nothing but the game. When you turn your head to the left, your camera will move to the left as if you were looking in that direction. Looking at your ceiling would show you the sky in the game.

The only problem with this for GW2 is that there is no first person. You cannot be fully immersed with the occulus rift when you are looking at your character’s back. It doesnt seem like you are really there. There is now another reason to put first person in the game.

might help explain it wooden potatoes playing GW1 with the occulus and how immersive it really feels, can only imagine how it must feel in GW2 with massive bosses

haha, well atleast it’s there for anyone else who stubles accross the thread, so apart from a first person zoom feature being both better for taking screen shots and getting a better look at things it will also help for those who’d like to adapt it to the oculus rift
