Into the Radius is a Cursed VR Game
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 лип 2021
- Into the Radius makes Fallout 4 VR look so unplayable. Simply because of all the things a VR fallout game could be. Because this indie VR survival game I know nothing about, absolutely slaps. Into the Radius deserves a lot of credit for not just being a decently fun idea for a game, but also being a juggernaut of VR functionality. Virtual Reality is only just starting to live up to it's name, but wow is it really good already. Big name developers, TAKE NOTE of what this studio did. And to the developer(s) of Into the Radius, you really made a piece of art that has brought me hours of enjoyment so far.

I remember hearing the developer of BoneWorks said "Us small indie developers make breakthroughs in mechanics and then triple A devs use them"
Indie devs test them basically
@@TechnoMinarchist The dumb shortsighted insecure ones anyways, who PUBLICALLY SHARE their innovations, before incorporating them into a purchasable game!
except they don't, every AAA vr game I've bought I ended up refunding because they blow chunks compared to even a mediocre indie game. they'll never compare to games like blade and sorcery, H3VR, boneworks, etc. because they're still stuck in the wrong mindset and they don't even attempt to innovate on anything. the ONLY AAA vr game I've seen get it right is Saints and Sinners
@@BlueJayGaming What about Half-Life Alyx?
@@Angel99847 oh yeah that one too, I LOVE HL:A
Being able to control the reloading process of a gun in a game like this is one of the bigger things i really enjoy in a VR shooter game
Yeah.
There's an up and coming game called AB Aeterno which is going to be some real competition for this game with it's mechanics
Not to mention you also need to clean and maintain your guns and even magazines!
play h3vr, hl alyx, or boneworks
@@truckerjesus8633 onward just got some very nice new reloads. Like ak flick mag and mp5 slap reload
Habie: It’s like Metro or Fallout in VR
Me, seething: *hE DOESN’T KNOW ABOUT STALKER*
now we have to get him to play stalker. Anamoly is free
@@JakeTalksGamesYT Or get him to read roadside picnic
@@JakeTalksGamesYT SOC first. Always SOC first.
Came here to say that too good work
@@malaizze SOC and then Anomaly 1.5.3 probably would be great.
Similar to my own journey after talking about the metro series with an online tutor.
I think I have close to 2000 hours nowadays, mostly in Anomaly with a few hundred in SOC and COC.
This is a great take from an outsiders' perspective of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R series. Thanks for bringing this copy to my eyes so I can play.
But this game isn't a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game, merely S.T.A.L.K.E.R. inspired...
@@annoyingassbean3070 They were talking about habie's perspective on the game not saying it was a S.T.A.L.K.E.R game..
@@dumgrrl Hmm... very well then.
I thought that too, I was like “‘mmm vr stalker”
What’s a S.T.A.L.K.E.R game?
The problem with the rules of aviation is that bees are no god damn planes.
loL
Why are you here
Fallout VR is for the smoothest brains. True S.T.A.L.K.E.R's play into the radius, now get back into the zone marked one!
Those damn spiders freak me out, I waste so much ammo on them. Saw Hab using a knife, might try that. I use my knife on the slow walkers.
@@fen4554 If you absolutely can't get the hang of them, there's a pretty reliable tactic if you can keep your cool:
Which I'm gonna try to hide behind the "read more" thing because I think being freaked out and learning how to deal with that yourself is part of the fun. But if all else fails:
Wait for them to lunge at you and sidestep. Might have to face sideways and be prepared to sprint to get out of the way fast enough, depending on how close they are when they pounce. If they lunge from afar, you can literally just walk sideways and they'll whiff. If they miss with the lunge, they get stuck on the surface they impacted with for several seconds and you can take an easy shot, or even just walk up and shank them.
@@Roxfox I quit the game exactly at the moment i saw the first of those spider things. I was scared of the Headcrabs in Half Life Alyx but i (kinda) came over that fear (except for the poisonous ones, they are still scary as shit) but those Spiderthings scare me so much and i cant go back playing Into The Radius because of them lol
@@mwfrozen You get used to them, honest! Don't worry, that's pretty much everyone's first experience with them. I've watched numerous people's first attempts at this game, and those little creeps result in so much swearing and dropping weapons and fleeing in a panic! But they're not actually very dangerous on their own, so if you try to just think of them as an enemy to overcome, I'm sure you'll be fine! It helps, once you kill your first one, to take a closer look at them and learn what they really look like. The sheer unfamiliarity is a huge source of fear.
Haha very funny stalker, now hand over your rubles and artefacts........us Bandits won’t ask twice hehe
You see, the game’s premise is great, any glitch could be written off as an in-game event
Funny thing was I playing the 2.0 beta the other day and seeing a bunch of stuff with placeholder textures, i thought "you know, that STILL fits in with the zone"
Honestly aside from getting randomly teleported once in a while, funky head to carrier tracking. Honestly this is one of the best games VR or otherwise I’ve played in a while.
I don’t know if an untextured lamp is considered a in game event
@@jzapien1377 "getting randomly teleported once in a while,"
I can't tell if you're talking about the Tide, or tracking issues.
The best part about ITR is that the wonkiness of modern VR can simply be explained as the Zone being the Zone
As they say in S.T.A.L.K.E.R,
"There are no bugs, only anomalies"
I've put 30 hours into this game, it's great. Just to let you know, they have a massive map and gameplay overhaul in the works, it will likely release some time in the fall.
Tips: you can press and hold trigger with ammo boxes to hold the bullet in the air, same with mags. Touching a box and mag will fill the magazine. For guns with a mag eject, pressing and holding eject will have the mag stick out so you can grab it without dropping it. Last, and I bet you found this out, the hammerless break action shotguns have a button to pull back the hammer on them.
Im glad theyre actively working on this game, its already good but definitely cant just be left in its current condition
Isn't the whole point of a hammerless break action is that you don't have to manually cock the hammer though? Wild.
I think I'll leave it in my Steam wishlist a bit longer then, how well does DLSS work in this game?, No man's Sky just makes the game to blurry, unless running at a crazy high resolution that's not really possible in that game, even with an RTX 3070 and DLSS on.
@@thebillyd00 Yeah, it threw me through a bit of confusion as well.
@@trittyburd Isn't the beta for that out already?
Ah good, someone brave enough to play enough of this game to make a video. Because I am a wuss.
Get back in there, man, you'll adapt to the Radius
I second that... Would love to see you play this
Fancy seeing you here
This is easily one of the funniest, most wholesome channels I've ever found on UA-cam :)
Just do what I do: memorize the sounds of the things that can kill you and ignore everything else. The devs like to put random weird creepy noises that come from nothing in random places.
Glad you covered my favorite VR game!
Also the game is based on a Russian novel called roadside picnic and the story of ITR is pretty much some miners found something under ground witch caused the radius and you are one of the few survivers of "the event" and when you die you revive from the dead but you can't leave the zone or else you suffer a horrible a permanent death so the group responsible for studying the radius employs you and the other "changed" to assist them with there reaserch because they can't enter. The game itself takes place 15 years after the event most-all the other explorers have either vanished or left the zone in suicide you play as explorer 61 as you progress you help with reaserch while also helping Katya (the white statue girl) figure out we're she is so you can save her. When your done with the main game I'd recommend trying out the 2.0 UPDATE beta for ITR it's good.
are you talking about the game because roadside picnic is nothing like that.
@@PLOJ yes I just mentioned that the game was based on it the rest is about the game probably should have made that clear.....
you’re*
@@Smile4theKillCam456 👍
Habie, since you enjoyed this so much, might I recommend S.T.A.L.K.E.R Anomaly, if you haven't played it. It's not a VR game but Into the Radius is basically S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (Plus there's a ton of mods)
Edit: Fuck it, play the original trilogy and Anomaly. It'll be worth it. I promise :)
I think that S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly should be played after the first few original games, so that they can be appreciated.
Please no, play the base games first.
Main trilogy first, Stalker
@@malaizze You three have a point. Somehow overlooked that.
The original game is super janky and you have to adapt to it. I say this with the utmost love for S.T.A.L.K.E.R., I had the same amazing experience of perfected atmosphere as anyone who gives it a chance. But I feel it's best to warn anyone who tries to play it now.
I love that any stalker and metro fan has the same reaction to any smaller detail that makes the games more immersive
Magazines? Animations? Ammoswap?
You name it, we love the crap out of it and will never shut up about it
Pro tip climb to the top of the yellow tower where you found the sniper rifle. If you thought that gun was impressive, you ain’t seen nothing yet.
this man is on another dimension with his galaxy brain
I climbed up the crane but found nothing there, are you talking about the beta branch?
@@anomalycenter1197 I went up it last night in the non-beta. There was a Mosin Nagant in perfect condition with a few boxes of ammo. It may be bugged, though. I was trying to fit the PSO scope on it (turns out that scope can't be put on the Mosin) and I placed it down on the spot the rifle was, and it just vanished. So, maybe it disappeared on you? Sucks, too, 'cause rifles are crazy expensive. The compatible scope for the rifle cost me like 2000 bucks.
@@theguylivinginyourwalls where exactly is it on the crane? Is it at the back of it, where the weight bricks are? Because I can see some sort of cabin there but can't find a way to get in. Also fall damage is broken for me, I fell all the way from the top and didn't die
@@anomalycenter1197 The diagonal braces that hold it up can be reached and grabbed if you walk down one of the narrow beams. Really wish there was some boards there to walk on, because the climbing... isn't the best. Still, you get 2-3 boxes of 40 bullets with it. If you want a rifle but don't wanna grind for it, it's a good option. Pistols seem more useful to me at the moment, but it never hurts to have some range.
habie your brilliant always brings a sharp exhale out my nose holes when i watch your videos keep up the good work
awesome
@Lucid Ferret and im the second XD
I literally refunded this game because i couodnt get out for an hour. Youre telling me i was supposed to ignore everything with good quality and walk into the void? Not the train car or the FRONT DOOR?
Game literally tells you to go into the fog.
I almost returned it because of that. If the game tells you its easy to miss.
Heh.
Yeh, the only other character in the game tells you to go in to the Radius i think right when you spawn outside the base for the first time...I took that and the giant turret gun pointed at me to mean I had to go in to the fog and in to the Radius and not come back...30 hours of playtime surviving inside the Radius later...i finally learn that that is the home base where you can take missions and earn $$$ and stuff. :/
@@Slangwell Don't worry, there was an "experienced mega MLG VR gamer with decades of experience in proffessional VR gaming" who couldn't get past the crouch part in the tutorial because there wasn't a crouch button.
listening to this man speak so passionately about games will never get old
7:05: yeesh, that didn't age well
Hahahaha
Looking for this comment
Good hunting, Stalker
Don't let the door hit you...
@@bobbyshmurdaexe7089 ANOH! CHEEKI BREEKI!!
GET OUT OF HERE SDALGER
This is perhaps my favourite VR game, I hope this video allows it to get the recognition it deserves!
Ok i want to give this game another shot now. I was cut in the middle of the tutorial and never went back. Looks pretty good!
did you ever finish the game I just started it and I'm having the same problem
@@wandajones4758 i played more but i didn't completely finished it yet.
Habie when are you gonna play Subnautica VR so I can watch you be scared of giant fish?
Me: writing up a list of new VR games to grab and scare myself senseless with
He must do it
I don't think Subnautica vr would be scary. He should try Slenderman in VR that's much scary lol
@@thenoobreturnz8968 Subnautica without VR is the most terrifying game I have ever played. If it's in VR, I think I'd die of a heart attack.
THERES A SUBNAUTICA VR???
I love how you find the most (kinda) underground games THAT ARE HIDDEN GEMS.
Has he talked about Cosmodread yet? Don't feel like it gets much attention and I've dumped dozens of hours into it. Feels rough when you first start playing, but once you get past the fear factor, it's an amazing rogue like where you get more powerful the more you play and die (or escape).
@@fen4554 I may need to play that thanks for the (sorta) recommendation
Goal accomplished! It did brighten my day and i exhaled sharply through my nose more than a couple of times. keep it up!
Heck yeah. Glad to see you spotlight this one. Been playing it on and off for about a year. I'm super excited for the 2.0 rework they got going on the beta branch. Things are a lot less obtuse in 2.0 from what I've seen. For example, the way the fog wall works is a lot more obvious.
First I'm gonna play STALKER, and then I'm definitely playing this ASAP
4:05 I dont remember leaving my hair there
7:04 "battlefield 2042 could not come faster" oh noh, sweet summer child
thinkin the same exact thing 😂
7:12 that aged well
Habie you always make me laugh even when I have a bad day I watch you and my day instantly gets better I love your streams keep up the amazing work man
You finally reviewing ITR! It's such a great underrated game, and I love it.
You really have to play it again, or continue doing so and learn the story, it is really good for an indie game and makes sense. You need to keep doing missions to progress the story.
This is litterally the best vr game ive ever played, glad youre giving it some love! Btw the ending gave me chills so get ready
I just wanted to say, thank you for the raid yesterday, that was fun!
Though I will say, it scared the fuck out of me
Your the For Honor goat
I will raid your house
Glad to see you playing the game Habie! I just got into it recently and have been loving it. Can confirm that every noise gets the blood racing when out exploring the wasteland.
bro i found these videos to day and honestly i cant get enough... i mean the footage he uses makes his points the editing is amazing and the footage has like those moments of like pure shock and awe and funny moments that arent forced for content i love it!!
great video. radius is one of the most underrated VR games, and its still getting better and better. the new 2.0 update fixes a lot of issues, and hopefully they keep polishing it so it feels more like boneworks or alyx
Making the climbing work like it does in Boneworks would make me not have a panic attack climbing tall structures. The hands floating in front of the rungs makes me hyperventilate because I'm deathly afraid of heights and it doesn't instill a lot of confidence that my VR hands are actually gripping something.. More so when it can actually kill me if I fall off. Sure, it's not real, but it says something for the immersion when my brain thinks it is lol.
For those wondering: this game is pretty much STALKER VR.
@@joelsefur666 its playable so its three times less broken then stalker on release
"Three times as broken as stalker" so why does it even launch
@@Availant “three times LESS broken” you cretin
lmao sure it is. "OMG it's like STALKER and Metro had a baby!" you types crack me up
The base is so comfy. There’s something special about cleaning your firearms to piano music before re-organizing your supplies and eating canned pineapple.
HABIE, I saw your comment on a Bo Burnham video and now I see at least one line in your songs that is a reference to his work and I half believe you are doing it just to screw with me. Nice vid, keep up the good work.
I've had the exact same experience with Into The Radius. It just feels right, and everything works as it should. The immersion is off the scale thanks to it. This game is a real VR gem.
YEEES I wanted you to play this game so bad and you did it man, my respect I luv you!
7:50 lol there is me in chat!!!
PRAISE THE OMNISSIAH
i feel like you and i are similar as far as what we look for in VR games: incredibly immersive little features with goofy/fun ways to use them.
i was thinking about getting this game, and when you dropped this video i realized your opinion can definitely sway me one way or the other! and this definitely made me excited to check it out.
anyway, love and appreciate your perspective! keep it up!
Keep up the good work man. You deserve to be a bigger UA-camr from the work you put in and the quality. Love the content, can't wait to see more.
Huge thanks from devs for the let's play and let us know if you would like to organize a giveaway!
"Battlefield couldnt come fast enough" oof
I finally got my smoothbrain blue shirt in the mail, love the design!! You are the first youtuber I've purchased merchandise for myself from, and I hope that makes you happy! Stay fun and cool habie
Your reviews on vr games are so in-depth and funny that they are the reason I own Pavlov and many other games keep up the great work I hope to see more videos
Thanks for the recommendation I've never had more fun organizing my room and talking to myself like a crazy person about plans and trips now only if I could stop getting harrassed by goop spiders and anomalies
Saying battlefield couldnt come fast enough was funny
So I’m new, first vid I found from ya by accident and got to say I looove your content form. Clear points, funny and informative! Keep it up and ima sub :D
i think a great thing about Into the Radius is just how much it feels like you're surviving. It's one of the most immersive games for VR because it really does put you in the mindset of a survivor. You aren't very tanky, strong, or fast, and you're vulnerable, always looking over your shoulder, wondering "what sound was that?"
My favorite VR game so far! The most immersed I've ever been in a game, despite all of its janky moments. And despite the fact that I hate horror games and this was constantly terrifying me. I just couldn't stop wanting to explore more, against my better judgement! I think it's because there's no deliberately horror-gamey parts, no scripted jumpscares or nasty things getting in your face out of nowhere. It's more *conceptually* terrifying, a really spooky place to be where you're on edge not because you have to anticipate a scare, but because you have no idea *what* to anticipate. In VR, that feeling becomes absolutely addictive.
You know what's exciting, though? The devs are working on a revamp of almost the entire game. New map layout, more areas, better graphics, rebalanced combat, and eventually new weapons, enemies and artifacts as well. They don't give exact dates, because it's a ridiculously small team working on this, but they're hoping to have the first part of that chunk of content out before the end of August. As someone who's already spent 40 hours crawling between anomalies and fleeing from tentacle spider monsters, I'm psyched to get back in and do it all over again with a fresh coat of paint!
Smooth brains rise up, habie posted again!
I’m so glad you made a video on this game. I have enjoyed it for so long now.
I'm really glad you enjoyed/were terrified of the game, this is probably not only my favourite VR game, but also just one of my favourite games in general, I have sunk a good 250 hours into it 😂 but god I'm so sorry you had so many problems with it, now that I think back to when I started I had the same problems. But I'm hoping you can return back to it! Cause they are currently working on their 2.0 build which completely redesigns the game, and hopefully will be easier for you in the future!
This is the best VR game I’ve ever played, glad it’s getting the attention it deserves
This was a great recommendation, I've loved playing every second so far.
man does every youtuber upload at 12pm, I dont want to be reminded to sleep
Thanks for the 'no-spoliers' approach to talking about this game.
Cheers!
In fact, it does feel like a 'I will hold your hand by making this video about this game' approach
YES FINALLY I LOVE THIS GAME
i hate it, but i must play it, i want the 2.0 Update
@Vortex sad to hear this...
This video is quite PAUSE: I'm sorry, skip down a line to see the full comment, but honestly, shaming people in the middle of a video is like my new favorite way to celebrate super fans. Okay, back to the comment.
....good.
chill and lowkey funny, like chilling with a buddy playing a co op game
subscribed liked and commented you dang dawg
Yo Habie!!! I just realized I saw your video before I even started streaming this game!!! I just didn't realize the name bro!
i tried playing this and couldn't get past the tutorial.
if it was a while ago the tutorial has been rebuilt. i mean you still must have a pretty smooth brain if you couldnt get past it but it did used to be a bit of a pain.
@@bsimulator i work for your mom ayooo
My condolences on BF2042. At least Halo Infinite delivered.
I appreciate how real you are. Also, a good thing happened to me right when I started watching your content so thanks for the vibes.
I'm soooo excited to see someone finally cover this game! If you have a version and want a good survival game I Highly recommend this game.
"this thing looks awful when I put it in this cabinet. Can I put myself in this cabinet?" -> you don't need to you already look awful :P (jokes)
I haven't played this beautiful game in a while because:
crappy, drifty controllers
(the game is) very very frightening
Edit: to be clear, it is solely my controllers’ fault that they are crappy and drifty; ITR is not apart of the problem.
this was a really enjoyable review to watch, especially the special shout outs
Always good for a chuckle, hope I run into you in a game somewhere, sometime.
Habie my side hurts from how much you make me laugh. I should probably get that checked out...
I was gonna watch this video lastnight before bed but once I heard the first few seconds of audio I stoped it. Aint got time for that lmao
Love the relaxing vibes Lofi fits youre videos so well
Thank you UA-cam... this legend is amazingggggggg. Love you bro, keep up the great content!
I played this for a bit - i couldn't figure out if I was missing something, are all the missions really just 'fetch orb/drop from monsters, return for reward?' I love the exploration but if that's the only mission to do then idk if I'll play again. Does it get better?
Just have to say seeing you take the shell out of the holsters ON THE SHOTGUN and put it in is just satisfying to see.
I knew you'd get there someday, and it makes it all the better that you didn't know the game that Radius dreams of being.
This channel deserves more subs. I wanna be here when you get famous.
One of my favourite UA-camrs. Yet so modest my dude 😄😄
Roadside Picnic is one of my favorite books, and playing a game loosely connected to the novel is enough for me. It never fails to make me feel there; scrambling, fumbling and fighting my way all while basked in the glory of the bastardous zone. What a fantastic experience.
Loved the vid, do you have a VR gunstock it makes VR a lot more immersive I highly recommend you get one if you don't already have one.
The only time fallout is scary is when the location your at starts with dunwich
Genuinely looking to get this game with the new build here soon, and whaddaya know, my boy Habs goes and does a review.
Sold.
So glad you made a video about this game, without it I probably wouldn't have gotten back into vr, probably wouldn't have bought my Index when I did, and probably would have never found into the radius whatsoever. And I love this game!
Habie is one of like 2 other youtubers i have notifications on
Great vid, thanks for sharing! Definitely going to have to try out this game.
Ok, i'm a kid that watches memes like every day and I only get a laugh like once and you, my good sir help me get through the day your content is just immaculate and so funny I love it and I have no clue on how your not at 1 mill yet. keep it up my child and please for the love of god don't become cringe. PS. i NEVER leave a comment or leave a like and your the only one that gets that.
I just want to say that you are a genuinely funny person. And that this video got me to play this game and it is amazing!
I will check this out. My husband got me an Oculus Quest 2 for Xmas and I’ve been looking for a good VR game and will see if this is in their library….let’s hope so, it looks freaky enough for me 😜 Thanks for sharing.
This game need so much more love and exposure than it gets. Top tier VR experience, even if it lacks a story or driving plotline.
Im so happy Im not the only one who struggled getting out of that first safehouse area after the tutorial, I ended up getting out of bounds on the other side of the chain link fence after the green line stopped and spent an hour just getting back in bounds
Habie, you are a gem of a human being. Love the content
0:59 im physically hurt that you didn't mention stalker
Never seen you before but i'm getting early russian badger vibes. Subbed with notivs pretty fast. Pretty nice editing mate. I fuqs with it.
Habie: It's like Metro or Fallout in VR
Me: WHERES THE DAYZ EXAMPLE?!
I cant help but now feel that there's some raw footage stuffed in your harddrive with you going on a tangent about how bad your diarrhea was
I just found this channel and man…. I GOTTA sub now…
Bro speaking about the walking around aimlessly to find your way out of the train depot, I have never resonated more with something. I walked around that area for like an hour before I Googled how to get out lol
