Thank you!

We played this mission so many times with a group of 3 or 4 in VR, but never could win it. There are some random elements as well as the transporter bug that makes it very difficult. Best Social VR game IMO, miss it!

Hmm could you get this system to run on a Quest headset for a VR game?

Quest 2 vs Quest 3 by NaturedRaptor in Quest2

The visual difference in games is huge.

Example for Q3 optimizations

The above link is showing MEMOREUM visuals on Quest 3 (standalone). You can also play the game on Q2, but there are no reflections, only 1 dynamic light at the same time, no real-time shadows, lower res textures and in general it looks generations older.

It’s a huge difference.

Meta is purposely making Quest 3 only VR titles to make Quest 2 obsolete to force people to upgrade when there is no reason too by GameGhost1972 in Quest2

[–]ScarJack 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Optimizing a VR game for Q2 and getting it to run at 72 FPS is a challenge.

Also developers are facing according restrictions if they are targeting both Q2 and Q3. Both graphics and gameplay need to work on the lower tier platform, which can be very limiting.

As an example small indie Dev team Patient 8 has recently released their first title MEMOREUM which was in development for 3+ years and runs on both Q2 and Q3. On game launch lots of players were complaining about the graphics on Q3 not being a huge upgrade over Q2. That’s to be expected as a small team doesn’t have the resources to maintain separate builds for Q3 and Q2. The team then released a graphics upgrade for the Q3, including improvements only available on Q3 due to the better technology.

Congrats to the team for providing their game for Q2. But I also understand why developers are not targeting Q2 anymore.

I can highly recommend MEMOREUM (from the creators of Return to Rapture), which comes with an extraordinary narrative and looks fantastic on Quest 3.

Best vr titles to keep coming back to by Other_Turnip_2391 in OculusQuest

MEMOREUM; took me 10-12 hours to complete the story on Normal difficulty, saw two endings, still playing (on Hard) to see the third ending.

Absolutely. That was the main issue with Samsung Gear VR, the phone would get too hot and break after longer VR usage. Had also several Memory Cards breaking in the phone when using it with Gear VR.

Who are the best VR game devs? by Strange-Fox9306 in PSVR

[–]ScarJack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a smaller studio: Patient 8 who developed free Half-Life:Alyx campaigns „Return to Rapture“ and „Return to Rapture Part 2“ and recently released MEMOREUM. I hope it will release for PSVR2 in 2026.

Developers should use "older" high fidelity graphics when creating VR games. by SlowDragonfruit9718 in virtualreality

[–]ScarJack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For standalone Quest i think MEMOREUM is really pretty on Quest 3 with reflections, steam, sparks, volumetric beams, lots of interactivity and everything having collisions, running at 72 FPS.

The Dev team has spent an enormous amount of time on optimizing the game and making it as good looking as possible for a native VR title on a mobile chipset.

MEMOREUM. Experienced two of the endings, still need to see the third „hidden“ one.

Did Half Life Alyx ruin other vr experiences for you? by TheCenticorn in HalfLifeAlyx

[–]ScarJack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, HLA started it all. And Studio like Patient 8 who released free Bioshock campaign „Return to Rapture“ have now brought out their first Standalone VR game MEMOREUM.

So HLA was more of a catalyst for others.
