    Even though initially opening orbs was very confusing, I honestly prefer them over the boneworks unlock method since it is much easier to track what has been unlocked (as collected orbs won't respawn) and I don't have to haul a pile of items to a deposit bin. Also as far as I know there is no super expensive shop for dev tools (like bonework's time tower) so it is nice to be able to use ammo without having to converse every single bullet for some funny gadget.

      rant:
      I wonder how I would have figured the orbs, because like many things unfortunately it was kind of spoiled for me; I watched some clip on twitter from slz before it released showing people pulling apart orbs, and well I instantly learnt you pull to open them. You super easily get spoilt/learn even subconsciously.
      Another example is watching other vids, like thrillseeker explaining the basic ass preschool "puzzle" where you move the tall block to push a button, and some other guy who tried shooting the boneworks box in hub. Then, instantly, all the wonder and curiosity and proper thinking just vanished.
      And people say spoilers actually are good for you because they make you more engaged in it, but it seems opposite: you know what's going to happen so you don't need to do 'detective work', thinking about it. Instead you just idly sit by as your subconscious does all the work with zero effort from you

      @@Vitoreo it is possible to find out what is happening from inside the game if you really dig into it and read all the stuff ingame. granted it is kind of difficult but i think of it as you playing is the story and you are figuring out what happend/ is happening as you play.
      SPOILER: FOR BONEWORKS
      in boneworks you are ford trying to get to the void and trying to figure out if dying in the void without any protection from mythOS or boneworks engine will actually kill you in real life or if you respawn if you respawn that would imply that you are immortal within the void. (in this story the void is an actual extra dimensional place or plane of existance that is able to be programmed from what i understand and using a headset in this world made by monogon/gammon actualy links/transports/copies the mind to the void making mythOS and or the Boneworks engine the only way to reconnect with your real body), and it is possible to compleatly disconnect your mind from your body if you are killed in "Real life" as seen in the end when ford watches himself get shot basically making him immortal but traping him in the void forever.
      SPOILER FOR BONELAB Probably idk havent gone trough everything:
      in bonelab you play as someone who has commited some kind of crime within fantasy land, dont know which crime but there is an obsidian tablet with commandments in blue text within the dungeon you feel into, must have been one of them (from what i understand all the people in fantasy land are either sentient null bodies or actual players/beta testers who got trapped in the game somehow and who have been surviving in a decaying abandond and unfinished game) becoming extremly conservative in thinking and desperatly trying to save their world without the devs that have abandond them. I suspect that many of them used to be actual real life players since that implies that you are playing as yourself one of the palyers who got trapped in fantasy land.
      as you go trough the dungeon and halls you eventually get to a giant dev who is hosting a radio channel and gives you a task/goal to acend using the bonworks engine locked within the bonelab hub in order to ascend tough you cant go as yourself but have to collect avatars that have abilites required to get trough the ascention alive since once you start the ascention you cant go back ever again and if you cant get trough the ascention you basiclly get trapped between two planes of existance in the void. but eventually at the end of the game you successfully ascent and met the dev again in the taxi where he explains that you are not the first one to ascent and that there is a place where all ascended work together to build a new world or something. basicly by the end you are an immortal mind disconnected from your original body floating in the void with all the others like ford unable to ever return, but with the ability to design/mod reality within the void.
      tldr. so in the end everyone ascended is some sort of god like being within the void able to shape reality and themselfs to whatever they want.
      there is much more explanation about what the void is and other aspects of the world and universe of duck season/boneworks/bonelab but it would get way way longer if i continue and some of what i wrote is almost certainly wrong but that is what i got from the games so far.

      @DoNotSubscribetoMePlease Рік тому

      What I think about the story is that, yeah, it was a bit short, but the overall gameplay was really good. I have never played boneworks, since I only have a quest 2. What I think about the “continued story” is maybe just the mods the community creates and probably the levels they make, which is cool, but if you think about it, it is kind of lazy, too. The modded levels are as good as the scenes from the story, but only if they actual put more effort into the story, make it longer, and maybe make it so you really-really have to use the different avatars a lot more, like maybe a running-away level to get away from a wave of something or use the heavy to destroy wall or maybe vehicles, and maybe have some Half-Life 2 references like introducing the Dev Manipulator and letting you keep it for future levels. Overall, the game is great. It is definitely worth the 40 bucks.

    i feel like dlc doesn’t lean into the physics part enough. boneworks and bonelab have been my favorite vr experiences and the physics are the main reason for it. if he just thought of the bone games as real life sims then it might change his perspective on the idea of “jank”. like when your massive you can’t just hold a pistol because ur hands would crush it, and your hands are wayyy too big to reload. so don’t use guns. he realized that and had way more fun. if he did that with the whole game he would have a better experience imo.

    I thought the story was non stop fun, incredible sound track and engaging puzzles that feel rewarding when you solve them. The moon mission was definitely the least fun but the map at the starting area makes it pretty obvious where to go. Bonelab and boneworks are games that you have to pay attention to. Look for the small details, you can’t just speed through it and expect to not be confused. If you look around for even a couple minutes the moon map is extremely obvious, just a little boring.

    Spoiler Warning
    The boneworks story was pretty confusing at first but that has nothing on Bonelab now, considering how the whole campaign seems to be a time loop (Correct me if im wrong) and during the first level you hear the driver talking on the radio and hes saying the exact same things hes saying to you in the taxi as if you in another reality has made it into the car and the conversation is being broadcasted all over mythos and fantasy land. But until i can figure out the story and what the hell is going on im just gonna stick with the boneworks campaign being better because there were only really a few levels being the first one decent, the third that seems to be runoff and the last one ascent. More than half of the campaign is just time trials and parkour where you unlock your avatars but ascent is definitely my favorite because it actually has that mythos feel like in boneworks.

    They didn’t add an option to take off virtual crouching like Boneworks and I really didn’t appreciate that. My right controller has a tendency to drift so my character would be tip toeing which prevents jumping and irl crouching, it really made immersion difficult and I hope they put in that option. Even just generally, some prefer needing to crouch irl to a button
    Edit: I also think they need to add an option to take off the climbing assist- whatever it’s called. Where your hand glides to the next thing you can grip, it ruins immersion for me and doesn’t help hardly at all. I can see why it would be a thing but fuck- SL Zero needs to add better control setting to modify for every player, you can barley optimize anything

    It feels like they got 5 different guys to make a few level sequences, mashed them together, and then added some radios that directly tell you stuff really on the nose to form something resembling a story and connect it to the lore lmao. SLZ's storytelling and level design are still very convoluted, maybe even more than in Boneworks this time around. It's like they have zero playtesters.
    There's also the issue of clickbait youtubers like Thrillseeker overhyping the game, and saying it was going to change VR forever and "be the next gmod". He literally said something along the lines of "I know VR youtubers say this a lot and it's clickbait 99% of the time, but this time it's for real, it's going to change everything!!".
    Also, for a game that's VERY heavily focused on sandbox elements and modding, the fact that:
    - You still have to unlock everything in the campaign to use it in sandbox mode (the challenge is cool, but there aren't even any cheats for people that don't want to go through that so we have to wait for a 100% savefile)
    - Mod support is VERY barebones. Right now the SDK only supports creating maps and avatars, while gun/gadget support is coming down the line and code mods have been said to not be coming for a while. Also, the documentation is incredibly barebones. In reality, all of this stuff should've been available from day one.
    SEVERLY hurts this game's modding scene.
    For a game released 3 years after Boneworks, it really seems like they didn't use much of that time to research what people wanted, think about what was wrong about Boneworks and could be improved, or improving the sound design and graphics substantially. I was able to let Boneworks off because it was their first time experimenting with this sort of stuff so I expected it to be pretty janky and unpolished. But with Bonelab, I expected a more polished game with better sound design and better graphics, especially after seeing just how long the credits were this time around after finishing the story. Hell, some things are worse than in Boneworks. For one, the object physics themselves seem much less reliable than before. Small objects like baseballs phase through the ground when thrown at high speeds because there aren't enough simulation substeps. They did improve some stuff though. To me, climbing feels much better than in Boneworks. In Boneworks, when i tried to pull myself up ledges my arms would act like springs a lot of the time and just bounce me backwards causing me to fall. In Boneworks it feels much more stable.
    Bonelab is a good game, but it definitely has issues.

    i really find it hard to admit the faults of this game, i love bonelab, alot
    but i was just like everyone else, being stuck on that FUCKING crane
    after that tho the climb level was the only one that got on my nerves, everything else was smooth sailing. im having a great time with the sandbox, finding orbs/item capsules, all is very satisfying
    the only thing this game needs is a patch, a fix up to the way your character interacts with the world (like not giving your hands collisions on FUCKING LADDERS) and fix the grip points.
    i think with the sandbox and everything being unlocked, it should be a option, if you are like me and get great satisfaction from unlocking stuff, you can choose either having it all unlocked or locked.

    I too am worried about the decision to leave it up to the community to be responsible for the game they made. I don’t think that really an incentive to play the game… wait for other people to make me stuff to play….. and the mods the are held to quest restrictions seemingly making quest almost useless for actually modding a lot over time to keep the game alive. I would have waited if it meant we would get a real substantial story. On top of the tools we have now

    Okay... this person thinks the moon level is bad when all you have to do is explore until you find the sphere to break open... He is so lucky he hasn't gotten to the pillar level that is meant to showcase the long avatar that randomly switches you to every other avatar in the game on top of enemies that two shot you and the constant damage over time simulating flying creatures as you parkour in a super cramped space that is designed to get your arms stuck as you move up slowly just to get to the top.

    BoneLabs is a good game, the core gameplay loop is incredible and I am very dead hopeful for the future of Bonelab mods. I've completed - it took me like 6-6.5 hours or so.
    I absolutely loved Boneworks, it was also frustrating at times but generally felt earned, fair and very fun. In Bonelabs the Moon mission and the climbing one that Josalt mentioned were two of the most frustrating game moments I have ever experienced. I finished feeling actually angry and just glad they were over. The mario cart one was boring and basically a tech demo. I actually feel like Bonelabs is mpre of a tech demo than Boneworks ever was to be honest.
    Bonelabs was major step down to me. Not in that gameplay loop which is amazing but the story, length, frustrating design choices and even the OST doesn't slap like Boneworks did.
    Also I had so many bugs and glitches where I was trapped on rails or my character decided to go as low as possible for no reason or my guns messed up or whatever.
    I think Bonelabs is great and could become a lot better, I just feel sad that I felt relief after finishing it whereas Boneworks (which I played for the first time finally a month ago) made me want to head straight back in.

    I am disappointed in the game, and I have made my opinions very clear in several polls you have held asking about people's opinions.
    My respect for Thrillseeker has dropped quite significantly upon hearing his review of the game and singing its praise to no end, when I feel that boneworks is a way better game, and a lot of the decisions and brokenness of a lot of the game really angered me, cause I know SLZ can make a good game! They made my favourite VR game of all time with boneworks, and then I play this game, where my controllers don't work right, I can't fucking crouch and I can't see a damn thing for fog thicker than vrchat anime thighs!
    Compared to boneworks where I spent a solid like 14 hours on the story this one left me feeling "is that it?" after i finished it in 6 (and that is ontop of my game not loading in half of the level in ascent)
    The expansion of the world we have gotten was interesting as I like piecing together the bonelore, but God dammit does the test of these thing annoy me!
    And my god the climbing and the moon base was HELL!
    The sandboxing is fun and modding the game is fun, but dragged down by the that I CAN'T CROUCH WITH MY LEGS! WHY AM I FORCED TO UDE THE STICK?
    The index controllers are broken, make them behave like Boneworks.
    Rifles seem like they are angled off left compared to boneworks.
    And the fog is so damn thick!
    If those get fixed, then I will change my steam review to be a thumbs up
    To be clear I have had fun playing, but god dammit I have also been angry, roaring in rage at the things listed above... And my left cobtroller grip suddenly stopped working on the climb level.

    I haven't gotten too far in the story yet, but I do like it. I wish it was done different but it is not horrible. Actual criticisms like you have are good but I have seen another youtuber, Advanced VR Fare I believe the name is, who just shat on the game after only playing for an hour, and pulled shit out of his ass. His "review" had no criticism at all, It was just mindless shitting on the game, saying pc graphics and quest 2 graphics are the same, and that they dumbed the pc graphics down for the quest. He also mentioned the physics are horrible, without even really playing around with them. In short, good criticism is good, mindless shitting bad.

    42:38 .... He's completely right. Adding mod support to bonelab is just one aspect of the way over hyped game. Look at HL: Alyx. It took a year+ to get anything even close to a full mod. Some could argue that we still haven't even gotten a "full" mod on the level of CS for example. So to think that we're going to suddenly unlock some massive archive of amazing games just because of mod support in bonelab is seriously over hyped beyond belief.
