>revolutionizes the gaming industry and makes consolekiddos and toastercucks seethe eternally

Based its like Half Life 2 all over again.

But it didn't do anything revolutionary with VR.
I have an Index and the only thing this game does differently to other VR titles is:
>Grenade throwing works properly
>Cinematic experience
>decent graphics

Valve seems to be dead-set on the vision that the ultimate VR-breakthrough is just around the corner. I don't share their optimism. I hope Valve can swallow their pride and release an old-fashioned flat game once again.

Right, and that’s exactly what VR needed

So?

Autistic generic Yas Forums hivemind approved/10

The gravity gloves were kino and other VR games definitely could incorporate the feature.

>Muy eli death
>Retcon bad

Let's be honest and acknowledge the only people complaining about the retcon are poor fags who haven't played HL:A. The retcon has literally no impact, considering Eli's death had no impact on any games or other official media related to Half life.

so did ep 1 lol

That’s not a picture of FF7R though.

>New Doom and Half-Life release close to the same time
>Doom is a huge success while Half-Life bombs

Amazing

looks more like old alyx, good job user

did this game sell anyone on vr?

i got vr and everything for this game, and while i absolutely loved it, i kept thinking about what the game lacked because it was vr.

Looking good

saying it bombed isn't gonna make it real

If you took the same game and made it non vr it would be absolutely fucking awful, you think it lacks because you're comparing it to your imagined vision of hl3 that no game would ever live up to, not to what it would actually be.

>tripfag is a retarded shill
What else is new?

>zoomy is a whiny faggot
Nothing new

The non VR mod for Alyx is fucking awful and strips out every single interesting thing about it. And you still can't complete the game.

yeah that's what i'm saying. it's definitely not the half life game i wanted but for what it is, a game limited by its tech, then it's great and while it is totally fantastic, it did not sell me on vr.

i'd worry about a game with the scope of a half life 2 trying to make its way into vr.

alyx and beat saber are so far the only games ive played so there might be something else out there that works as the eyeopener to vr that i need but so far, it's a weak argument.

I ordered an Index within hours of it becoming available again in early March, and I'm on a 8-10 week long waiting list. Yeah, they're popular

I ordered it around then as well and only last week was able to confirm my payment info and it’s finally in shipping status (which means another two weeks probably).

HL:A has done more for VR than any other game so far.

drawfag?

NVM just checked tracking info and it’ll be in on Wednesday apparently, sweet

I think the harsh truth is becoming apparent. VR has an inherent hard limit based on the very fact it is VR and needs to obey normal human mechanisms.

VR will always be a niche, even if we ignore the hardware and money requirements, it's an active hobby that takes a lot out of you physically and mentally. There's a reason more people watch video game livestreams than actually play them, the average person wants a "hobby" that allows them to shut off their brain after they come home from school/work, whereas VR is a full cardio workout in itself

>it's an active hobby that takes a lot out of you physically and mentally.
Try getting exercise, you shit. It'll even help you think clearer if you stick with it.

That's not the problem here, though. Games are inherently less dynamic because now we have to depend on the body of an average human being and obey it's limits. There's a lot you can't do because of it. Even for reasons like not making people hurl or not being able to turn your body as fast as someone can flick a mouse. The only selling point VR has is the sensation of actually being there, and it requires limiting a huge swathe of what games have become in order to accommodate it.

I don't do requests
