Strange feeling when looking at real hands

does anyone else experience a bit of a strange feeling after an extended touch session when looking at their real hands?
cant really describe it, but just a momentary odd sensation in my mind

With both the Rift itself and Touch, my first long play sessions left me feeling like reality was less real than VR. After a few sessions, I got used to switching in and out of VR (the feeling stopped), so I'm sure it will be the same with Touch. 

After playing Superhot last night, I felt like time was still connected to my movement (the premise of that game). There's always something new to invade your brain!

Lol, super hot is fun.  Where else would you get to play chicken with an inbound bullet?

Agreed! Got to see if I can get my dad to play so I can video him

So you are questioning if this is the real life... or just a fantasy? 

Would you describe it as getting caught in a land-slide... or a lack of escape from reality... ?

(Goddamn I need to sleep...)

We're just poor boys, no touch for we (for the rhyme)! 😉

On topic : That's not strange to have 3 fingers linked together in VR (grip button AFAIK)? I mean it come naturally after a short while? I'm wondering this, and if you're not tempted to complete open your hand and make the Touch fall?

I've been getting a strange residual appearance of the Rift Guardian grid in my peripheral vision after a few long sessions in Rift, it's weird, I look around the room and even though i'm not in rift I can see that grid in the corner of my eye like it's burned into my retina or something, goes away after a while but really weird and freaked me out a bit..
