This is How VR Dies

[@FrontwaysLarry]

What you're seeing is the "dizzy" mechanic when they stand still. I've let the devs know that they'd benefit from some kind of particle effect or visual cue for that.
It starts out easy to let you learn the game, dude. Play it, don't be a buzzkill, and you'll see how the game actually plays. Also, you successfully showed how you'll die if you do nothing, congrats on disproving your own theory on how the game takes no effort. It's all still basically the tutorial you're playing.
Your review on Steam says you only played for 0.5 hours when you posted this. That's like 15-20 minutes of gameplay after the controls instructions and opening dialogue. Don't want to be harsh on you like this, dude, but you're bashing the years of hard work of this developer without even trying to play more than an hour before making a video showing you not even trying to play it, then complaining.

Game looks very appealing visually, and from what I've seen from other content creators, a pretty fun experience. Seems like people here are saying this is only the first level, and it looks true considering I don't see any of the enemies I've seen in other videos. Putting in bare minimum effort is going to make any game look lame, especially lack of motion in a VR game. This would be a bad hill to die on since a lot of people do like this game, and it doesn't seem like you've given it much of a chance beyond first impressions.

[@connordanby6820]

I do definintely think the content of the video is missing a lot, all these enemies are at the begining and I believe are meant to be simple, let people get their legs etc. Atleast from my experience the game gets more challenging and physical as you play and is definitely intended for player creativity, same as B&S.
You are also most definitely hovering over the supposed 100 weapons and 80 enemy types? I think we only see 3 or 4 enemies in here.
This review would have 100% more worth if more content is shown and different enemy varients! here is to the hope of a second review!
Going to give it a shot myself for sure since I believe this is a young developers first video game release, gotta support the young bro's for the future of vr!

​@@TheBaldrickk doesn't change the point you could still do the same thing in bs even on its highest difficulty

[@cjledford]

The problem is that he's expecting a VR game to function like a 2D game.
This is a game where you try to make fun by doing cool moves, dodging, slashing, being active with your body. That's the focus. The focus is to try to be as cool as possible.
When you strip that away, what you're left with is a lifeless experience where you're just tapping enemies in their weak spots and barely moving at all.
on level one.
On level one you're supposed to be figuring out the physics, chaining cool moves and combo's together, and being a goofy ahh anime protagonist. You do whatever YOU want to do the overcome the obstacles. If you just sit there and fucking wiggle your wrist, of COURSE it's going to look bad and not be fun?
The point he's trying to make is stupid. You don't go into Stardew Valley and complain that the combat with the monsters lacks depth. You're missing the entire point of the game, the difficulty comes later in the game, in the beginning you do fun silly shit, and the difficulty ramps up as you go.

[@golongself]

Wow, putting less effort into a video and removing all nuance... Really helps with user engagement. Never seen so many comments on your proper videos. 😮

[@squidin9347]

i totally understand what you're getting at here considering you can defeat a lot of the first enemies just by walking at them with a sharp stick. still half the fun in this game is done by putting effort into your strikes to get those satisfying cuts and stabs. either you were just doing that for the review to prove how easy it can get or you just didn't put much effort into this at all.
then again the fact that you didn't put much effort into this at all speaks volumes about the beginner levels and maybe the dev could improve upon that ai to be more challenging. i have only played and loved the demo so i have no idea if there is a higher difficulty mode in this game but if there is, try that out for a change? and maybe get further into the game for that sweet sweet difficulty and higher number of enemies?

[@bretts6127]

After the first few levels, especially the second realm, the npc's start dodging, rolling, using heavy attacks, spinning, etc. The game also has full mod-compatibility, and the mods are actually great.

[@Andrew-uk1bz]

A lot of strangely defensive/hostile comments here, and I can't for the life of me figure out why. The fact that this is a full release game, NOT early access (according to steam, at least) and you are able to play the game this way surely is a fault of the game itself, not the player, no? I saw another comment here from @annoyingassbean3070 that sums it up pretty well: "A good VR game, in my opinion, should make its players feel a need to actually engage beyond roleplaying an experience that should already be given from a melee-based combat game"
The fact that you don't need to engage this game in any more way than it's basic functions is a problem. Looking at blade and Sorcery for example, another VR Swordfighting game that's still in early access, you need to actually swing your sword to do damage. Your swings and movement have speed and weight that actually matters in combat. This game lacks any of that and you can get by with just tapping enemies as they stand still and take it.
"You're playing the game wrong," maybe, but the fact that you can play the game in this way is the bigger problem.

[@sonarronar3999]

what? no, i can play through the entirety of doom with a pistol and have a shit time but still win?

[@Andrew-uk1bz]

​@@sonarronar3999 I mean cool, sure. You absolutely can do that. But why would you? The core mechanics of Doom encourage you to use other weapons, get upgrades, etc. Everything about how DOOM is made is designed to encourage the player to interact with it and it's mechanics, and the game would be SIGNIFICANTLY harder to play if you ignored those and played it that way. As compared to this game, it seems EASIER if you play it this way.
The enemy AI is stagnant, you don't actually need to swing your sword to do any damage, there's nothing in the game encouraging the player to interact with it further than the basic necessities other than hoping for the player's desire to make the game be more fun.
You can take any great game and make it intentionally shit by actively ignoring it's mechanics, or you can take any shit game and actively try to make it fun, but what's the point in that? I don't fully understand this argument.

[@sonarronar3999]

​@@Andrew-uk1bz and why should the player's desire to make the game fun not be a primary motivator? yeah sure, you can have other motivators, but on a design level, enemies are stagnant so players can finish off their enemies, forcing the players to take their own action. in this case waving a sword mildly works as well, if they want. the design isn't broken, it just requires more input from the player to actively enjoy.
You can play battle talent by swinging a sword around badly. But why would you?

[@pyrogaming95official]

they froze because you deflected their attacks and stunned them, and the first few levels are designed to be easey, so you wouldn't have much trouble.

[@kingfloppagaming]

Not only is this not even a review, but the gameplay from you is so lazy that you can not have any fun. You are supposed to put effort into the fights and actually use the weapons as intended, not walk around like you're trying to kill a rat with a stick.
Besides, the enemies showcased are the most basic enemies in the whole game. The "boss" shown is actually a mini boss as well, it's only a boss at the start so new players can get experience as they progress so they can deal with the significantly more difficult enemies later in the game. Even as a trained swordsman, it gets difficult to fight some of the enemies. It's never gonna be "poke goblin, goblin die" levels of difficulty after that first chapter, you will have to put in effort to block, parry, and time your attacks. A game about combat (unsurprisingly) takes skill and effort. The whole reason for the game being easy at the start is to help you learn those skills.
Also, this is a one developer project, so don't expect as much from them, especially on the first day of release. Even so, this is basically a perfect game with little to no bugs. Perhaps try to play the game, and you'll have fun. Don't go around trying to kill the hype over one of, if not the most anticipated VR game of all time. If you're gonna call this a bad game, at least put in the effort to prove your point.

if you played this game back when it was only available thru quest labs.
you'd def see how far this game's come, you're not even playing it.
compared to how this game was then it's a major step up, Even with bugs still present
it went from being a small room with a sunroof, and only having
~7 stages (3 of which were tutorials) and ~15 weapons (could be more but i can't remember)and only 4 enemies (with their variants)
even if the game flips assets it's still a decent game, besides. it's a single dev project, you can't just put the guy down like that.
hell the game has mod support.

[@MrVRVoice]

@@SINfromPL You seem to be jaded about Valve in particular, that’s your own thing and irrelevant to this video, Alyx is a different genre altogether.
I know nothing about the dev/s behind this game, nor should I have to or need to. I’m the end user who pays, in this case just under £20, and I judge the product for how I experience it, or in this case I let it speak for itself. Crap product is crap, whether it came from a team of 200 or a single person, it is not my business to factor in the life story behind it. When joining the market, it creates its effect to the industry and users. And if I made this myself, or something ‘half as good’, I wouldn’t deign to release it at all in such a state, inflicting it on both users and the marketplace would just be embarrassing and a betrayal of the art form.
VR has too many of these abysmal standard games slowly sapping away at its credibility, along with the no-standard simps who have arrived here with their reductive snarky comments.
If a VR game in this genre (released in the primary worldwide marketplace, not a special indie or amateur dev marketplace), lets me succeed by ‘playing’ the way shown in this footage, it has FAILED, end of story. And if we want to move things forward, we need to start mocking the jank we’re asked serious money for and demand better.
