Mr. House 3,371 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 I finished Eternal Starlight VR on easy, the campaign is way too short, I was expecting a new game +, it would be perfect for it. You get to keep a few things from your last run but not much. It's not like I unlocked or saw everything in that one run so there's still some replay value here. Still ended sooner than I wished though. If you can get it on sale like I did it's still worth checking out though. 8/10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I remembered that there was a I Expect You to Die 2, Ill probably grab that soon. I liked the first game a lot and it seems like it would be much easier to play through without feeling sick.

It's ok, you seem to have a real problem overcoming that VR phase. Some people are like that, unfortunately. I expect you to die is exactly the type of VR games you should focus on first. My friend played part 2 and he said it's also really funny and good. Eternal Starlight is also a type of experience that can't make you feel nauseous, except maybe if you turn the camera too fast, even then, you're still standing in place, it's the movement that is usually problematic. I should make a list of games that are ''VR noobs friendly'', games where it's basically impossible to get motion sickness. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Remij 4,683 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 I still have to play The Room VR. I've had it on my wishlist for a while now. Gonna have to change that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's a pretty standard puzzle game if I am to be perfectly honest. It's solid but nothing special, imo. Get it on sale only. I'm not strongly recommending all the games in that list by the way. None are what I would consider a bad game but it might not be for everyone necessarily. I played them all so feel free to ask. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One thing I didn't know what that Operencia had a VR mode. I was always interested in trying that game out one way or another, but would you suggest playing in VR when I do? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You'll enjoy The Room then. I can't say VR adds a lot to the experience in Operencia. You can more easily see hidden secrets but that's about it, otherwise it's as straight forward as it gets as far as VR implementation goes, it's the same game, same controls but in VR. It improves the immersion but also create a few minor issues. It's still my favorite way of playing the game but keep your expectations in check. Still a good game though if you are in the mood for some old school dungeon crawlers like that, I liked it. Also be warned, it's no walk in the park, it gets very challenging later in the game. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 3,928 Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 Superhot VR is still the GOAT VR game Whenever I have family/friends over, I have them try it and they all come away blown away by it. Its the perfect showcase for the hardware and is actually really friendly to people who aren't accustomed to VR. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think that was the last VR game I played before I took a break from it. Its pretty much the same as the mobile Room games but the VR aspect does add to making it a trippy experience, especially with the way it changes scale and perspective as you interact with the puzzle objects. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It IS a damn shame they haven't done anything else with it yet, because you can imagine all the cool shit they could do with a sequel. There's still SO much potential there.

And that's not encouraging to hear that it's dumbed down.. the originals weren't exactly super challenging either. Guess I'll wait for a deep deep sale then. I still want to play it though, because I do love that series, even with all it's faults. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

madmaltese★ 2,586 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Finished Dying Light 2. Good game. Just main lined it though but the gameplay is great. Would've really dug into more if I had played it when I didnt have open world fatigue. Started Trek To Yomi. Super basic but it is so linear and simple that it's a fun little game to play in between larger ones atm. Thinking I may finally get Returnal and dive into that soon.

Even though its open world the linear missions were actually pretty well done. Especially the one where you climb the tower. The parkour really shines during those moments.

Yeah can definitely play the game in a more linear fashion and it also has many cutscenes and narrative moments even though I don't think the story is great. The parkour is superb. Easily best first person parkour type game around. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmaltese★ 2,586 Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Finished Trek to Yomi. Was what I needed atm but the game is all style and zero substance. You will basically see the entire range of gameplay in the first 10 min and then repeat that for the whole game. Very Very basic. Prob a 6/10 for me. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
