>>1319954 Buy?

>>1319954 >Buying games

Anyway, I just wanted to see if he learnt anything from vertigo 2. He did not. The gameplay is still ass. Hard mode is just self-inflicted torture.

>>1319954 Buying games? MORE LIKE GAY AND BI! WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!

>>1320551 >>1320564 >>1320583 Just one more thing Mr. Anon, why is VR dying? >Why is VR dying? Because lazy developers are only making low effort slop. We need AAA production quality slop for VR to succeed and people should start buying 5090s instead of under powered quests. Just one last thing Sir... I almost forgot to ask you this. When was the last time you bought a VR game? >Who do you think I am?! I'm not a retard goy paying for games!

>>1320551 >>1320564 >>1320583 >>1322197 Not to mention, Vertigo 2 is as indi as a game can get. It's mostly made by one guy. He even almost voiced Brian in the DLC because he couldn't get the voice actor: https://youtu.be/cSn_a2-2TXk You can even hear this in the trailer, second video of >>1253928 is the dev voicing Brian in the trailer because that was released earlier than the game. I can understand not wanting to support EA or € 90 Mario kart. But when you pirate from a single guy creating a game for a niche platform without the backing of a pre-existing franchise, then YOU are the reason VR doesn't get games. It's even PC only, so you don't get to claim quest holding back VR either.

>>1324317 I wouldn't even bother pirating it, the game looks like shit and stuffed to the gills with cancerous Rick & Morty "humor". Ended up getting the first game as part of a bundle, and I could barely make it through a half hour before wanting to strangle myself with my headsets cord. What a shitshow. If you want a decent indie VR shooter, go with Compound. The game was developed over the Covid lockdowns, and it shows. It's about taking down a mad scientist/pharmaboss who is creating viruses so they can force you buy the vaccines they made for it.

>>1322197 >>1324317 I'm not paying for bad games, it's just not going to happed. >b-but the dev tried! Don't care. Make a good game, then you will get my money.

>>1302786 More robocock.

>>1324317 Hey there Brian.

>>1325877 You enjoyed it enough to play the DLC. You decided that was worth your time.

>>1328448 Only played it on an off-chance that it gets better and to be able to confidently say that the game is bad. Because you niggers would just say "i-it's gets better after 5 hours!", it doesn't. The dev made so many retarded decisions which literally ruin the game. Pic related: the game pushes you in space instead of letting you lean a little bit, because I guess representing the player as a straight standing capsule is the best we can do these days.

>>1328337 what is this? >>1328763 which vr game solves leaning over tables best?

>>1329056 >what is this? A person hiking in the woods with vispro. Imagine a large scale augmented reality game like that. Could be cool. >which vr game solves leaning over tables best? Can't think of anything from the top my head. A lot of devs don't even try and just allow collision with the geometry with fade to black/orange (alyx) screen, others use the barebones capsule and push the player. Unsatisfactory overall. Maybe bonelab does it a little bit. I remember them talking about simulating the avatar properly, but I don't remember testing in-game. Need to check later.

>>1328763 Looks like good game design to me!

>>1328337 >>1328763 Outdoor hiking with virtual wife? Has science gone too far?

lol

>>1350250 >tell everyone it "Ships in May" >May arrives >this is the fucking state of it >reviewers have nothing to show except lens & display since nothing else is finalized or complete >jack the price up >announce a separate cheaper SKU with worse displays & lenses The one thing Pimax can always deliver to customers is a fake release date. Pimax is the Todd Howard of VR.

>>1350250 No one actually buys from this company, right?

>>1380469 Was kind of considering the Crystal Light as a replacement for my Reverb G2 since Microsoft is bricking it and nobody cares enough to make Linux drivers. Wouldn't mind a Big Screen Beyond, but I don't have an iPhone like a faggot would, so I can't get my face scanned for a fitting. I want to share it with friends and family, anyhow, so a custom VR headset wouldn't really work. Don't trust some of the new stuff coming from literally who brands out of China, and I'm not looking to downgrade to Zuck's Meta garbage or PSVR2PC. Was hoping to hold out to see what Valve had in store with Deckard, but holding your breath for Valve to release anything is foolish. It's not my ideal solution, but the clock's ticking. What do you fags recommend?

>>1380469 Nobody buys from that company a second time. Let's leave it at that.

>>1381306 the bigshit begone 2 has a generic gasket option now. Wait for reviews in a month I guess, but I've been pretty happy with the 1st edition, despite its flaws.

>>1381390 >$1,000 headset >No tracking solution >No audio solution >No controllers Jesus, the whole face scan thing automatically put it outside of my consideration - I didn't realize just how bare bones the fucking thing was. I'm not spending more money than my entire fucking computer cost on a VR headset that I'm going to get such limited use out of. Got anything that's in the sub-$999 range that is a complete package out of the box? Annoying tracking issues aside, my Reverb G2 has been a good workhorse that still keeps pace with or outclasses most mass market headsets out there, and it only cost me $399 new. Is there nothing in the mid-range market?

>>1381687 > I'm not spending more money than my entire fucking computer cost on a VR headset If you think that's expensive, just get a Q3. Not even to disparage you or anything, poverty is not a sin. It's a perfectly fine headset and a massive upgrade over index. Spend everything else you have on upgrading your PC. In a year, you will have a lot more to chose from HMD wise.

>>1381695 It's not even a matter of poverty, but in value for the dollar. I'm not going to get the mileage out of those VR headsets to justify spending over a grand a half on a headset - especially when the VR game industry is relying on shovelware just to maintain life support. I'll mostly be using it for sims. At any rate, a Quest 3 would be a downgrade from the Reverb G2, so I don't want to go that route.

>>1381721 >a Quest 3 would be a downgrade from the Reverb G2 Not really. G2 is the worst headset. Even for simmers running quest 3 wired would a massive upgrade over g2. For everyone who actually uses the controllers, you don't even need to say anything. G2 just can't compete, objectively. It's just worse at everything.

So I just got my quest 3 headset and the image quality is pretty subpar (the horizon app probably has the best quality) and some games only pop up on my monitor with vr black screening (whether it's through steam or the link app). If I can't fix this shit, I'm pretty much out of $500. What do I need to do to clear this shit up? Also unless it's star trek tier, I'm never buying vr shit ever again. Shit should be optimized out of the box (especially with the development cycle it has had) and I shouldn't have to fix anything

>>1298798 >what the fuck those 15k+ people are even doing there? not working for a competitor maybe

>>1284860 >singleplayer unironically HL2 with VR mod. Alyx is great, but it's more of a survival horror than an action game. HL2VR is good old vidya design with at least 10-20 enemies going at you in every single encounter, plus mod handles gun interactions just like Alyx does, so it's not a shitty half-assed VR port either. Very much recommended. And Into the Radius is a must play as well, it's bit of a jank side but it really comes to live once you'll enable hardcore mode (that does NOT take away your equipment on death, it merely respawns you to the base and then allows you to retrieve it from your own corpse). Planning your approach, sneaking around, being fully aware that you cannot survive most encounters head-on, this game absolutely nails stalker-like gameplay loop of preparation and exploration.

>>1284860 H3VR

has anyone tried Peak in VR yet?

>>1572422 >I bought a VR set from Faceberg <Why is it so shit?????????? lol. lmao, even. Next time get a Valve Index kit. >>1635750 Good recommendations. >Alyx is great, but it's more of a survival horror than an action game It's more of a tech demo than a game imo. Alyx is great, but it has its flaws >only 3 guns, when they coulda done more: pistol, shotgun, smg >no melee weapons or CQC system; if you run out of ammo, you're fucked >shotgun and smg are weird, small, 'one-handed-type-looking' guns; why can't we just pickup and use the combine's guns like in HL2? >even on hard, game is easily broken by setting movement to teleport and speedrunning past everything >no limits on ammo, even on hard I was able to accumulate 300+ rounds of pistol ammo at endgame >too many puzzles, not enough enemies; all that ammo is going to waste >gun mods are few and uninspired: increased magazine capacity & grenade launcher are the only ones I really used >the really fucking weird 'pounce-and-ragdoll' animation used by headcrabs when they attack you >grenades and other objects are stored inside your wrists, instead of on your clothing. what? >no final boss; your endgame is throwing super-grenades at combine grunts in a corridor It's a great game, don't get me wrong, but there's valid criticism of it that needs our attention.

Looks like Viva Project is getting an official release on Steam. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2294970/Viva/
