If it's your first VR game, it will feel amazing, if you already played other VR games it will feel like a serious downgrade in a lot of areas. Even compared to Half Life 2 it feels like a downgrade, as there is just much less to do in Alyx, less guns, no vehicles, more linear, smaller environments. It's a great looking game, but the mechanics are just extremely limited due to the focus on teleport. permalink fedilink source parent [–] LazaroFilm@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago I just can’t justify buying a whole rig just of r one game. permalink fedilink source parent
