I'm sure that it is similar to those days where you sit around ALL DAY and do nothing but watch movies. You barely move, but yet, for some reason, are exhausted at the end of it.
That happens to other people too.... right? :shock:

Now that I have your attention, let me explain my somewhat (deliberately) misleading and suggestive title 😛
I FINALLY received my Rift on Monday and spent a good part of Monday night jumping between demos, but still ended up in bed at a reasonable hour (around 11pm). I took the Rift to work today, showcased it to a couple of work colleagues (all thoroughly impressed btw) and had a few more goes again myself. It's now 7:40pm and I only just spent about 15mins in HL2 and maybe 10 mins before that trying out Blue Marbel with 2 different audio tracks.
Anyway, onto the *yawn* part: I am COMPLETELY blown away by the immersion, the low res and screen door effect don't detract from the experience as much as some people make out and it doesn't take long before you forget about it entirely...but the one (strange) thing I'm finding is that I feel utterly exhausted after using my Rift!
At first I thought it was just the 'late' gaming on Monday (I usually go to bed around 9pm) but then, even now, it's barely 8pm and I fell exhausted after taking it off.
Has anyone else experienced this? The only thing I can assume would be making me feel this way would potentially be eye strain, or something similar. I find it pretty draining, in the same way that Go-Karting can be mentally exhausting (for those that have done it) from concentrating so hard.
Does anyone else get sleepy from using their Rift? ...maybe I have that funny 'sleeping disease'...Narcosleepy :lol:
