      I was so mad he didn't play TOTF. Its the only VR game I play because the exercise gets nuts. I use custom settings now where I increase their aggro alot but set their defense to the default normal defense. Also slow down their punch speed. This means I have to actively dodge hits to survive, and burn insane calories.

    Here's my take on Ring Fit Adventure!
    If you felt like the game was too hard, you probably had the difficulty too high! You can manually turn down the difficulty in the settings to make sure you're not overexterting yourself.
    I also agree that Ring Fit is much more workout-focused, but the way I see it is that instead of just doing reps in silence, the game kind of distracts you from thinking about the fact that you're working out while you're doing it. If that makes sense. And it keeps track of your workout for you so you dont have to think about it while you do it. Hope that helps!

    • @Tori_lmr
      @Tori_lmr Рік тому +15

      I also thing the other games are mainly cardio, which yes burn more calories but ring fit focuses on strength and muscle building, which help increase metabolism over time. So using both intermittently might be the best thing to do!

    I did this for 2 months in June or so with a weight vest and beatsaber and lost 40lbs! Custom songs really are intense, if you have vr I recommend it’s a really good way to train without being bored, I did about a 2 hour session twice a week, with some portion control with my food and kicked my body’s butt. Good luck out there gamers.

    I love lifting weights, but hate running. I just got a VR headset, and Beat saber is a great cardio workout. The Weeknd tracks have you doing a ton of squats, leans, and overhead rotations. I think I'll be using it as a warm-up before hitting the gym to lift.
    Ring fit is no joke, it legitimately leaves me drenched.

    Imagine a ring fit style game but it's an RPG where every time you attack, you have to do an exercise that is similar to the attack, like a jumping slash would be like one jumping squat. Honestly, just a bit less focus on the intensity and more focus on feeling like you're actually doing the things a character like Link would do.

    One thing about Ring-fit is that most people either overestimate themselves or place the bar too high right at the start "because funny max rep challenge seen on youtube" which...Is pure torture, yes! It can even lead to injuries so, please refrain doing it unless you're already in good shape and can endure that one session you'll go for it. (because let's be honest everyone go for it within the 1st week anyway... xD)
    No, really, if you feel down or tired it's ok to answer "keep the difficulty as is" or even "let's go easy for today" instead of always ramping up the rep counter to an absurd ammount. It is mostly fitness yes, so an important part (the game repeat over and over) is also to learn your limits. If the game feels like torture, lower the difficulty on your day's start. Still a shitty workout? Repeat until you're near your confort zone. Game is feeling too easy? Now go ahead and place the bar higher, little by little, until you reach your goal.
    Once I understood this, the game started to be fun, then 40+lvls life being a B happened, I couldn't play it for a year, and when I came back to it I was like "how TF was even able to consider that a light routine back then?!" not even being able to cheese the game with the high power moves you unlock. Then I realised, that if you stop working out or playing this game for this long, you need to re-evaluate yourself.
    It's a hard slap in the face, but it HAVE to be done! Restart, from level one.
    Use your knowledge to have more fun than those first few torture sessions you had last time. Challenge the game once again, fair and square, until you reach your previous best and surpass it! And only then you'll have your anime moment perfecting yourself beyond what you were! And it will be earned!...Or something like that, idk, motivational stuff. ._.

    Hey Skooch, id highly recommend playing a VR game called Startenders. It is basically being a bartender in space with a bunch of wacky ingredients but its really fun and I found was a surprisingly good workout too. It hasnt made its way to steamVR yet, but if you have a psvr or quest you should be able to give it a try.

    Yeah the calorie count is definitely off on ring fit. Maybe because in the time it takes to check your pulse you've been resting for about a minute. I've literally been gasping for air and it said 30 something calories too. When I used my fitbit it also said I burned way more calories too.

    big suggestion is synth riders, similar to beat saber as a rhythm game with an emphasis on real world music, but it involves a lot more body movement as opposed to arm movement, and sometimes feels more fluid. Maybe not for everyone, but I almost prefer it over beat saber.

    For people who are interested in playing a cardio game - you can check out Blaston.
    It's a shooting game of sorts where you have to move IRL to dodge bullets, that being said, you'll need a pretty large room to move around, and consider using the wireless option for something like Oculus, because the cable will get in your way, but other than that I found it even more efficient at burning calories than Beat Saber.

  • @ClokworkGremlin
    @ClokworkGremlin Рік тому

    You *say* the "before/after" images aren't that drastic, but there's a very visible difference between the body checks on day 1 and day 30. You look less soft, the muffin-top is less full, there's more of the muscle and bone visible underneath the layer of fat.
    [edit]Standout Battle Royale is a great alternative to a treadmill. I get bored after about 30 minutes running on a treadmill, but the day I bought Standout, I played for 4 hours and afterwards my shirt was *drenched* in sweat. I regularly step in puddles of sweat left on my floor mats from when I went prone.

Only you're a regular human and it's not as fun as what Dragon Quest made it seem.
    On the plus side, that's the only rpg i've ever played where it felt super good drinking potions and using consumables (the smoothies), cause those would speed up the encounters A LOT so I could get the fuck out faster.

    I haven't been to the gym for quite a few months because of financial difficulties and on top of that I'm also the kind of person who finds most exercises boring (and hates most sports). But working out at games is inspiring, so maybe once I stabilize my finances I'll try it out :)
