My demo took place at Bleak Falls Barrow, one of the very first dungeons you visit in the game. Since it was a demo there were a few changes made to streamline it all. I only had a sword, now, and a few spells for example, but the actual game will of course have the entire plethora of items and abilities from the full game.
I played using two PS Move controllers so teleportation and snap turning was my only movement option. The representative that showed me the demo explained that with the DualShock 4 they have smooth movement and are trying to figure out a way to enable that for Move as well.
I could bring up my favorifes ist to switch spells and items quickly so my default was usually a steel sword and flame spell with icenaoikes and lightning available if I needed it. Shooting the bow was accomplished by mimicking nocking and loosing an arrow just like most other VR games you have probably played.
Combat felt good, but the lack of smooth movement made it tough to subtly maneuver around enemies. The teleportation mechanic was more like a sprint movement than blinking so it wasn’t totally immersion breaking. The representative also told me they are trying to find a way to enable voice commands for shouts, something I requested almost immediately.
Overall the demo was impressive and definitely felt like Skyrim. The resolution was quite low and clearly had to be downgraded to run on the PSVR without issues, but the framerate was as smooth as butter the entire time.
