With so many good mods out there I'm surprised this doesn't happen more.

Well Bethesda tried... To make the end user pay for it. Didn't go over well.

I don't mean the usual game company tactic of trying to extract money without adding value. I mean paying modders for their creations and then putting them out officially. I'd bet it would pretty much always be more profitable than doing it in house, and in most cases produce a better result. I mean, why don't we have some beautiful next gen Skyrim from all the mods out there, or VR versions of most games- the mods are pretty good usually.

Seems like it would be terrible for motion sickness, I'm looking forward to it though.

Looking at how they handle character controls, probably not actually. It looks like you control your character like a puppet or marionette.

The regular game made me motion sick lol.

"To clarify: I had no involvement in the actual development of this official port, and neither did Flat2VR Studios," the modder added. "They just bought all the rights to the concept and code of the unfinished mod (which tbh they didn't really need to do), and then did it all themselves."
I'm curious how much of his code they ended up using, but it's really cool to reward the dude like that either way.

That's awesome. I think it's also a really smart way of converting a game like that to VR.
A few games are getting official ports from Flat2VR studios as well, good time to be a VR player.
