PS VR 2 "Sweet Spot" & Eye Tracking
So if I understand correctly, players are supposed to look into the "sweet spot" with fresnel lenses to get the best clarity, but the area outside the sweet spot can have some level of blurriness or distortion on headsets with fresnel lenses.

And the PS VR 2 has fresnel lenses.

And also... eye tracking (and I think foveated rendering, right?)

This kind of setup would seem to make more sense on a system with pancake optics like the Quest 3 that has "edge to edge clarity" wouldn't it? Because even if the PS5 tracks your eyes to improve the image quality where you are looking, the "sweet spot" of the lenses would not move along with your eyes, would it? So if you're looking off to the side , even with eye tracking turned on, it should still look a little blurry because you aren't looking into the "sweet spot" which is probably right in the center of the lenses, right?

Not to look in the sweet spot, but to look through the sweet spot.
If you look through the sweet spot, you should not see blurring or distortion, with the perfect design and manufacture of the lenses.

Ps vr2 on pc does not support eye tracking.
Eye tracking does not improve the quality, but worsens it. Quality is degraded where you don't look.

You're not looking at the sweet spot, but your eye's matrix feels the light delivered to the bottom of your eye, from the displays, through the optical channel of the lenses.

You have to think about it again. With new thoughts.

In vr, it's best to get into the habit of looking straight ahead, and when you want to look to the side, turn your head. This eliminates many problems, and makes everything cheaper and better.

This guy says he just got a PS VR 2 to use on his Steam & PS5 and the image is really blurry (current thread): https://steamcommunity.com/app/546560/discussions/0/4631484492942505145/

I was trying to learn a little bit about it to help him out because he seems unhappy with it.

I assure you that there are many people who cannot be helped.

PC vr is still at a level where it is a small segment suitable rather for enthusiasts who want to put effort into it.

If someone doesn't want to put in the effort, read, understand the settings, understand the limitations. Should stay with q3 and a store with phone vr games, or ps vr2 and sony console.

If someone wants to buy a pc vr and expects it to just work, should go to the vive store and buy a new vr kit there, because this is the only company that offers stable pc vr software.
