    Setting aside all the other stuff related to this subject for a moment, that could be an interesting gameplay mechanic. Looking at your opponent directly causes a drawback (blindness, damage, death, etc.) so you have to use reflections and other indirect indicators to locate and attack. Might work best in VR though since looking one way and attacking another isn’t the most straightforward thing when using a PC or console and regular screen.
