What was the verdict on The Witness' use of VR? I was hoping to hold out and get the PC version and play it with that within a year or so, money willing, but if it doesn't really add anything I might just get it on the PS4.

Go to the puzzle where you're standing on the yellow bridge.
What exactly do I do after that. Its just the puzzle, resolving it doesnt do anything.

It should look like this DESERT SPOILERS
Look at the puzzle and then look around you. The solution you're looking for is the opposite state that it's in now.

218 panels solved (+23) and 4 lasers activated. Hint for the shadow panels:
It's the first set of panels that has not really made me feel smart, but very observant.
I feel ya, the second last one does not make the least sense to me.
There are multiple solutions. Each solution kind of looks like where you want the bridge to be
I see... well my game certainly doesn't look like that. I guess I can't solve this area?
I can't get the last one
412 panels solved and this stupid shit is the one I will probably have to cheat. I'm sure it's just a case of
identifying the pitch

Try moving your brightness settings,
Yeah. I feel the tutorial for Tetris is really poor. Super generic spoilers for the Tetris tutorials:
You can finish the two rows of green tutorial panels (and probably the majority of the following red panels) and totally miss several of the important rules. Like, the tutorials are trying to teach you Skill C, but you can also solve using Skill A and B by happy accident, so you never even know it was trying to teach you Skill C.

Yes! Just beat the monastery, or red tree temple area. That last puzzle through me for a friggin loop.
I beat it but I still haven't done all the environment ones in there. Got one on a whim but the other two are driving me nuts. Think I'll come back here seeing as the laser is going.

Blue square removes one yellow square. Other than that all I could do is tell you the answer.
Actually, the game does mark them, although not super overtly.
a)
If you end up in position and reselect the starting marker on a line you've already solved, the whole line will highlight with glitter.
Something else in the environment will mark them, but I won't share, because while fairly unimportant it was cool when I discovered it happening. You'll stumble upon it.

Do you feel pretty confident with the rules of the

No problem. I hate to be vague but I don't like spoiling!

I'll let you know if I hear the solution

Had a breakthrough on the tetris puzzles.
I'm still very early.
thank you based exploration
I'm still very early.
Only have one laser up. I was searching around, and came across a couple of panels (in different locations), that looked rather simple besides the fact that they had tetris blocks on them. I've been spending a bit of time trying to figure them out but to no avail. I decided to just leave them be and come back to them later.
Eventually I came across a swamp area that has panels with one block in the middle and came to realize that they were teaching me how to do the puzzles I was stuck on earlier starting from the basics. That was pretty cool. Still sort of confused though. Looking back at one of the puzzles I was stuck on, I'm pretty sure attempting the method that the swamp panels are teaching me, but they didn't work. Well we'll see when I get back to them eh

This is driving me insane. Either I'm missing something about the fundamentals of this kind of panels or this is downright imposible.
Link to picture of the panel:
I just need to know if this is possible or what lol.

If it's the one I'm thinking of I couldn't figure it out so just wung it and worked. I'm stuck on the last one now.
Well... I just tried the game on low settings. It crashed in 10 seconds. Restarted and tried low settings again and got.... this- http://imgur.com/a/YXJ2K
I just realised that the shadows behave really strangely and move when I move the mouse.
HAHA
Yeah, your graphics are kind of messed up. The sand in the background should not look like that.

Yup. That panel is impossible. You cannot solve the panel in that image

I've long known how squares work since they were about the only thing Blow showed in previews, hexagons I understood what they meant as soon as I saw them, triangles on secret panels I worked out quickly via some experimentation, the
glare
draw the shape
So, for the most part, yes. A few things I went and spoiled myself on (oops!), but likely I would have worked them out before long (I didn't realize the tetris shapes were used in the
swamp
Hint:
Leave the building and then walk back in. Slowly. Notice anything about your surroundings?

Yeah, that's your issue then. What kind of card do you have? I'd recommend doing a clean uninstall and reinstall of the drivers.

Worst part of the game so far. Caused me so much fucking trouble.
Took me ages to solve that fucker.

This is the exact one passing me off. I feel like I must not understand the rules behind this sequence of panels like I thought I did...

Noticed it right away but couldn't understand how to include it. Got it after nearly giving up.
I still can't get the

Pretty stuck at one in the forest.
Any hints?
It appears to draw off the left outside of the grid, I can't seem to find any angles that suddenly make sense of it either so I've got no clue at the moment.
I'm stumped in the jungle at this very one.
Still have made good progress. Around 360 panels, 7 lasers. Not gonna venture there yet.

It looks like a 12mb patch that came out might have fixed it? If you already have it, i'd hit up this thread or tweet J.Blow. - http://steamcommunity.com/app/210970/discussions/0/458606877335307672/
That one is currently ruining my life. I'm 99% sure I know what's going on, but I'm having trouble putting it together.
