[Come On Tars]

Next quest can't come soon enough. I started Asgards Wrath last night and it's so cool. I just keep thinking should I put this off until a better headset (fov mainly) comes out? I feel like certain experiences deserve it. The main VR games I keep teasing, playing here and there, not fully commiting because I am waiting for the next generation of HMD.

 

[Alexios]

Too much cool VR stuff lately (well, pretty much daily, just a particularly good day this one, sad most goes unreported).
​

Assortment of stuff since those two posts, tons more stuff around but only 10 media per post show up.

Is that the Dr.Beef one in development (yay finally Dr.Beef VR back on PC) or someone else is also attempting HL2VR? Should probly just go collab if the latter, haha, still better to have 2 proper efforts than the janky passing via GMOD solutions that exist so far even if team beef's ends up better given their experience and works.

We will probably have folks remastering (if not remaking, but given projects like Black Mesa took ages a remaster with just replacing the textures and models with the new ones where applicable while leaving most level geometry intact would be more than fine too) the campaigns in the Alyx engine at some point, but until then...

Yep. I think someone else has taken it over since he started it. I love the arms race of developers modding games into full VR. Praydog is doing the lord's work making the re framework games full VR with motion controls. It's wild. Can't wait to play RE7 properly

I bought this on a whim and it's decent fun. Pretty much Orcs must Die in VR. Game starts out super basic but it picks up after unlocking the second map. Combat is very basic but the tower defense aspect makes up for it.

just got a quest 2, love the air link tech. Able to play my steam VR games wireless in my living room is nice compared to running cables and such all over with the original Rift.

Is it worth getting if you're likely to play it by yourself 99% of the time? I've skipped it for this reason.

~10 minutes. Fingers crossed most of the games will be available for all VR platforms eventually, even though I'm sure most will only show as Quest here (except those showing off with PC footage that will have to mark it as such, like Stress Level Zero's Project 4).


Started strong with more Saints & Sinners. Just a teaser though, not real gameplay.
NFL Pro Era... Meh. Looks well made I guess, sucks for the indie 2MD.
Among Us VR, again don't care but I guess looks decent enough.
3 more Schell Games... games.
Red Matter 2, nice! Looking good. Alyx grab system. Didn't feel too exciting though.
Espire 2! Espire 1 was kinda meh but hopefully sequel fixes things up. Looks nice but so did the first, fingers crossed.
Moss 2, already seen that from PSVR of course. The more platforms the better.
Ruins Magus looks very promising, been following it a lot. Hopefully won't be botched a la Nostos or something.
Cities VR been showing a lot lately. Skylines VR spin off basically.
Finally RE4 Mercenaries DLC. Free as it should be, that's good. Launching after the show, nice.
More Beat Saber, whatever.
Bonelab by Boneworks dev, Looks quite nice, not so test mappy, PC footage as said.
Zuckbot >_>
Ghostbusters by nDreams is promising.

Decent outing today. Was hoping to see splinter cell and GTA. New HMD was a pipedream.

Small thing of note here: the Espire sequel appears to be Quest-exclusive? The first game was for PC, PS4VR and Quest, but this one says it was made specifically for Quest and only lists Quest as a platform for the planned 2022 release. Maybe it'll add more platforms later, or maybe it'll be a true exclusive?



(They do show footage running on a PC, but I assume that's for the demo.)
