Steedeel, yes, this could be the start of open world games in VR, moving well beyond the smaller games we've mostly seen so far aside from some full fledged VR games, like RE7 and some others. Whenever I thought about Virtual Reality, exploring another world was always the goal.

I am interested in when these will be available. I really want to hear them announce Fallout VR for 2018 at least. I hope it's not exclusive.

As far as moments from Skyrim, just exploring the vast open world is an experience in itself. Listening to the birds chirping as you walk through the forest, climbing a mountain and entering a damp, dark dungeon to face off against the tombs of the dead and the evil Sorcerer at the end. Lots of great things in Skyrim.

For the VR Skyrim/Fallout, I'll guess they're doing away with the option for the 3rd person view, instead favoring the intent to have the player be part of this first person view. Main reason I like 3rd person view in games is for the ability to see your character, though I can totally understand why they might choose this FPV instead. We will see soon enough.
