I'm sure you went through the setup process during installation.
But make sure you get the IPD setting
just right and this includes how high the HMD sits on your face.
Many, me included make the mistake of wearing the rift a little too high.
And especially most, if not, all the pr pics has the models wearing the HMD far too high.
Me and for most, optimal viewpoint is so low the top of the device is fully on the brow, for me this is also fairly more comfortable as well, and the lower section section completely envelops my nose.
The lower edge is actually about halfways between my nose and my upper lip.
But again, this varies between individuals so experiment experiment.
Took me about a week and a half to get that
perfect fit that is needed for hours of non fatiguing VR.
Once it's right text shouldn't really be blurred, unless you have blur turned on in graphics settings, just pixelated, and I learned to look past the pixelation quick enough.
Also don't try to hold your head steady, instead bounce around, twist, move and lean.
Having this actually replicated gives such a feeling of presence.
And as you glide the screens grid over an area, the motion completely obscure the otherwise present
SDE.
To me this also improves the legibility of text.
The most of important thing for being able to read the text was simply realising not to try so hard.
Just relax and make what you get out of what you get.
As for that initial wow factor.
I have been playing in VR for just over a year now.
And it hasn't gone away yet...
Also give the Asp explorer a go, and of course. The courier.
Vulture is also great.
In fact the only ship I haven't loved flying in vr is the Adder.
