    This is monumental! Your first PSVR 2 review! WooT! And you kicked it off with a beauty. What a showcase game. VR is either going to cure or aggravate my fear of heights. As of this game, the jury is still out.
    Great start to your PSVR 2 reviews!

    I've watched a lot of your old reviews within the last year or so since I got my PSVR, so being here to see your first PSVR2 game review on day 1 feels pretty cool. 3 years from now, somebody might be just getting their PSVR2 and looking over reviews and begin their journey the same way lol

    Great review. It is important for people to know that this game was designed for those who are brand new to VR. I think they did a great job with that in mind. Can you imagine this being your first VR experience? I was blown away by the PSVR Worlds menu screen as my first experience lol. PSVR2 has so many different games to experience. We are so lucky. Glad to see more reviews from your channel! I know you were anxious about everything but you are doing awesome. Thanks for everything you do.

    A "leisurely 9 hours" is just what I'd hope for from this game. I have no intention of rushing through without stopping to drink in the sights and trying out the side activities. A number of people have pointed to a lack of replayability though, and that's something that could be easily remedied if they make a version of the boat ride that works as an on-rails shooter. Make it happen, Firesprite!

      @Jdb63 Рік тому +1

      They need to make some form of arena combat mode where you survive waves of different machines. The combat felt great but it was way too sparse. I would totally come back to it pretty often to f up some machines

    • @metalmanexetreme
      @metalmanexetreme Рік тому

      I have to replay it as the game glitched during my first play through (my headset came unplugged somehow while in game) and no longer allows me to add blaze to my inventory so now I gotta start over and hope it corrects itself.

    Thanks and congrats on the first PSVR2 review, Bryan. - I got my PSVR2 on release day (actually the day before), after having been "away" from my PSVR1 for the past year or so. I'm back 100% and love every second, and I am thankful as always of all your hard work. PSVR2 Without Parole has been and always will be the gold standard, as far as I am concerned!

    Great to see your first review up. It's so weird wondering which PSVR2 games to buy (especially ones unlike Horizon that have had little coverage) and not having a Without Parole review available. Guess I'll just have to wait a month for you to catch up before I start buying more games!

  • @TheBatAndTheGameCat
    @TheBatAndTheGameCat Рік тому

    Congrats on your first PSVR 2 game review! It's like a brand new start. As always, it's honest and informative. As I played Horizon: Call of the Mountain myself, I agree with everything you said about it. Though, I didn't notice any ledge and rail flickering or frame drops.
    I do notice in PSVR 2 in general that some games have some kind of glitchy line flicker on the scene for a second. I don't know if that's the game or a headset glitch or graphical processing issue.
    The game is really fun. I like the climbing, tools, combat, and the visuals. I will play a second playthrough to go down the other paths I didn't the first time and maybe get the remaining target markers along the way.
    Can't wait to play more PSVR 2 games and watch your reviews!

    Definitely a great game, I'm half way through now. I got a bunch of PSVR2 games lined up, but don't wanna rush through them, so hopefully I can complete this one by the weekend and then I can check out another game! I'm a completionist though, so could be an impossible thing to achieve. Great review! Keep it up 👍

  • @BradouttaHell

    Great review Bryan. Is anyone else struggling with the controllers? No drift or anything like that. I'm constantly pressing the PS button, the L1 R1 button, and menu button by mistake 😅 is it just my not so nimble fingers?

  • @dbzcollector9963
    @dbzcollector9963 Рік тому +1

    Best way to describe this game is it’s like a high tech amusement park ride without the motion rig. It’s not really about the action but about the scenery and what the psvr2 display is capable of, I guess the word “tech demo” is technically correct but it is a lengthy one and it’s worth playing if you own the psvr2.

  • @Oblivion486
    @Oblivion486 Рік тому +1

    Great review like always. I personally loved the story and the talking parts, but that's all subjective. The branching climbing paths along with the targets give me a little bit more of replayability as I would like to go back and experience the paths I didn't on my first run. Even as a VR vet this was my favorite launch game, I just had an absolute blast. I hope they add a Game+ and a higher difficulty for it. I definitely hope we get another Horizon game.

    Only Thing! I would of like to of been able to replay the previous levels before I finished the game. I saw multiple paths that I didn’t get to go down. Great review glad you’re back !
    P.S.
    Your voice sounds a bit deep Bryan, you can handle the added stress and anxiety of PSVR launch. 😅Some gamecats have expressed concern but I’m sure u have the energy for it. we were very upset because you didn’t get a review headset and have worked very hard for the PSVR community. I hope the whirlwind Is mostly over for you and u can concentrate on what you do best !

  • @MADMANinBLACK08
    @MADMANinBLACK08 Рік тому

    Nicely balanced review as always Bryan, I loved every moment in the game, and will certainly be returning
    I’m surprised how many of the targets I initially missed given the fact I was looking in awe everywhere
    I went into it very sceptically as I didn’t think it would be anywhere near as good or as long as it was, I was most pleasantly surprised and have to say I enjoyed the climbing aspect of it, I also liked the way the battle system worked, I think if you had free movement, you would very soon find yourself entangled in the wire, I know during climbing sections I often had to unwrap myself due to changing my orientation physically, would love to see more from this franchise

    Hey guys... I've read about the ghosting effect in this game as result of reprojection 60fps to 120fps (RE Village and GT7 algo have these Ghosting). But here you said that is for TAA Anti-Aliasing. Explain that a little bit, please.
    This game does not use reprojection? What's the problem with TAA?

    As always, great review. True - this game could lack replayability if you are a trophy hunter or collector. But I am the type of person that will replay VR games compulsively if they look great, feel great, or have great moments. This game crushes it in all respects. I know I will replay this game from start to finish for years to come.

    I'm looking forward to replaying this with different control options.

I'm curious which option I prefer after a replay.

    Good job with the review.
    Definitely gonna be picking this up when I get my PSVR 2 (hopefully in a month or two). While I'm a little disappointed that there isn't a bit more gameplay variety (especially more in-depth environmental puzzles), I think it'll be a great showcase for the hardware and I'll probably enjoy it a lot. Hopefully it can act as a foundation that other spinoff titles can build upon.
