The locked-down(?) "console-style" super-low FOV in "Resident Evil Requiem" is absolutely terrible.
I say this as someone who does not usually get motion sick from video games.
It's so bad.

😲 Wow! Amazing concept: A virtual camera lens where objects appear larger (!) the further they are from the lens!

They thrust their space-ship again, and the earth rotates to reveal that the northern continent is burning.
Quite the key shot, I think I set it up well.
Then in the 360-degree VR render, the fires on planet-side are all invisible. What? How.? What.. That's impossible!
But turns out the 360-render is effectively a 180-degree field of vision fish-eye camera and the in-app headset view or the flat-screen render are more like 80 degrees field of view.
The planet is not planet-sized, even in the simulation. Otherwise it would have to be placed beyond the camera's clipping-distance.
But even so, the difference in the field of view is wide enough that apparently a different portion of the planet gets rendered onto the output bitmaps with the 360-render. They remained over the horizon.
Well damnit.
To hack through it I shrunk the planet 4% smaller in the 360-render while leaving the flames at full scale.
No time for anything more elegant in a bank-holiday-weekend project.
