The only reason that game needs VR is so you can see your right side mirrors without changing viewpoint.[1]

(Also, it really needs a steering wheel. Trying to drive a realistic vehicle with a game pad/joystick is awful.)

Well, I liked it at least. It enhances the game in the same way jumping from 16bit to 64bit makes a lot of stuff nicer. It doesn't fix fundamental deficiencies, but it makes the good stuff gooder. Being able to just look at the mirror instead of pressing a key feels way better and is far more natural.

But you gotta give 'em points for mapping the FOV control to the 'seat position' (or something close).
