We don’t have a First person view option in Gw2 yet, and playing with a Oculust Rift from a third person view is kinda pointless.

Not having a first person view doesn’t mean we never will.

- I have the Sony HMZ-T1, and I use it sometimes to play some games in 3D. It is literally a 720p Oled screen for each eye, which is far better than regular old lcd. The whole setup is really well done, with the exception of the built in speakers, which are,…not so great.

-This thing is Great for Playing Skyrim and other 1st person games. Racing Games are also kind of awesome too, especially those that have vehicle interiors when in 1st person view, like Gran Turismo 5.

- I played Assassin’s Creed on it, and, like everyone else has said, 3D headsets like these are not the greatest for 3rd person games. They are totally playable though. I also Tried Guildwars 2 and Eve Online, and didn’t like it that much. Guild Wars 2 was playable, but would have been infinitely better with a 1st person view. Eve Online was almost impossible though.

- The biggest downside to most current 3D headsets is the limited field of View. Yes, Sony’s does give the illusion of watching a 150" Movie screen, though its also from 12 feet away, so there is alot of black darkness surrounding the screen.

- If You want a great gaming experience for Guild Wars 2, you just buy a larger computer screen and get better speakers, because without a good 1st person view, a 3D headset would be garbage for a game like this.

I was simply curious about the tech, but like you said there’s nothing better than a big screen, which is why I went from Sony 50" LCD projection to Samsung 65" Led last January.
When 3D gets better on this game I’m ready and my 3D glasses are small and light.
