How can I improve the experience of a game even more?

[Mitbekommer]

A lot of focus is on 3D in this forum. I was wondering how I can make the experience of a game even more immersive. Specifically, I'm thinking of Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
What ideas do you have?

Play in VR using VorpX or HelixVision if possible.
Buttkicker / force feedback.
Get boob implants ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am using the Sony HMZ-T1. Are there techniques to capture your body movement, so you are the character, but with turning unlike the kinect? I would like to act out dead island or similar.

Maybe something with full-body motion tracking?

Mapping real movement to wasd destroys immersion...

I'm sorry if I have this wrong, but wouldn't full-body motion tracking, detect your movement and use that for the game?

Let's say you had perfect motion tracking with ultra high resolution, how do you bring this into the game?

You might be able to map it to a controller, but then you still won't have a perfect translation into the game, as the game wasn't made for non-binary movement. I mean, hooking into the wall is one keypress, how do you want to have subtle movement converted into a binary keypress without losing massive immersion?!

First you need much better low-level access to the character to then start thinking about a fbmt suit.

That makes sense, thanks for clarifying!
