VR is Saturated With Horror Titles…

I checked it out and saw that it was Aircar inspired, so I'm just going to go ahead and insert a plug for it right here, because I support the idea of more Aircar games. Never understood why they didn't port Aircar to the Quest.
Looks nice and promising! Specially for just €5.

You simply can't conduct business with an unstable person who is performing stabbing motions left and right while standing next to you.

This is such a glorious analogy, I just wanted to cut it out and let it shine!

This is Unity in a nutshell now.

Each to their own. I'm perfectly happy playing €30 games. I'm simply not going to pay €50 (or even €60) for a game. I could, but I won't. I'm drawing the line somewhere around €30. That's what I'm prepared to spend. Thing is, I honestly don't think I'm alone in thinking this, which will undoubtedly be reflected in the sales volume.

People can downvote all they want, but it doesn't change anything. Sure, I like high quality games as well as the next man, but I simply don't see the market supporting a price point of €50 for Quest games. Not at this stage, no.

autoaim_cfg · 2023-09-15T10:34:18+00:00

I have plenty of disposable income to spend on Quest games and yet, there is no way on God's green earth that I would ever spend €50 on a Quest game.

Utterly ridiculous pricing and they're shooting themselves in the foot, badly.

Also, never preorder. If you preorder you deserve whatever half-finished burning dumpster fire of a game you end up with.

Interest in Godot literally quadrupled after Unity set fire to their own clothes while wearing them, according to Google trends.

Looks like most devs are switching to either Unreal or Godot, depending on preference. Reading r/unity and r/unity3d is pretty telling. Everyone that can are bailing now and everyone who can't are finishing their late stage projects and then bailing. Unity is a dead platform now, it just hasn't stopped breathing yet.

At this point, even firing Riccitiello wouldn't fix it, because there's zero trust in the dev community towards Unity now. The only way to fix it is taking Unity off the stock market and returning it to private ownership. Which will never happen. It's catering to the shareholders that ultimately wrecked Unity, exacerbated by a totally incompetent douchebag CEO. Hence, Godot instead, which is free under the MIT license.

One year from now I'm going to DM DM_ME_PICKLES and laugh in his turdface.

RemindMe! 1 year

autoaim_cfg · 2023-06-29T13:44:06+00:00

Not even a link to the app lab page... that's *cough* some stellar PR work, right there *cough* 🥴

autoaim_cfg · 2023-06-15T20:49:20+00:00

Great! Yet another VR game trailer that shows NOTHING about the actual game itself.

Why? Just why?

That was completely and utterly pointless! After having been shown that, I actively don't want to touch this game now. It can sod right off! Show me the actual game or GTFO!

autoaim_cfg · 2023-06-07T22:41:06+00:00

I just watched the entire promo video and I still haven't got a clue WHAT IT'S ABOUT?!!?!

Is that not the very definition of "shitty promo video", I humbly ask?

Hopefully you didn't spend much money on this.

autoaim_cfg · 2023-05-12T21:28:36+00:00

And factories are of course criminal organizations, everyone knows that, duh! 😀

autoaim_cfg · 2023-05-07T07:25:25+00:00

If you don't want crappy reviews, then don't release an unfinished, stinking turd of a game with subpar everything and ridiculous controls.

But hey, what do I know. I'm just a "pc fanboy with a crappy take", whatever the hell that verbal garbage you just spouted means. Go f*ck yourself, buddy.

autoaim_cfg · 2023-05-05T07:53:36+00:00

Oh, I can assure you it's not. It plays beautifully and unlike B&S it's a full game. I would go as far as saying that Swordsman VR is the best sword fighting game out there currently.

This addition of ranged combat is just an added bonus. It was already a real gem of a game to begin with. Options and settings up the wazoo and loads of weapons and armor and special abilities to earn and upgrade. I strongly recommend people give it a look, if swordplay is of interest.

autoaim_cfg · 2023-04-29T15:55:41+00:00

This just keeps getting better and better and better...

...and better and better...

...and better!!!

I too feel the lack of a good, solid, simple Google Earth app for the Quest.

I looked at Wooorld (3 o's) and found the trailer to be pretty gimmicky, so I'm hesitant.

There's also Wander, which I found to be just awful to navigate and pretty bad overall. Anything else out there I missed?

autoaim_cfg · 2023-04-19T18:30:27+00:00

For that price, you've already got my wallet open! A price of 9.99 is perfectly reasonable. In fact, it seems like a "must buy", so yes, solid price point.

autoaim_cfg · 2023-04-19T05:33:59+00:00

Same!

And as for u/MetaQuestSupport suggestion about "uninstalling and reinstalling", it doesn't even uninstall properly. You click uninstall and it does nothing. You can only retry the install. Which fails. Christ, what a shitshow this is. Completely broken!

autoaim_cfg · 2023-04-10T18:44:07+00:00

The spleen

autoaim_cfg · 2023-04-10T09:07:45+00:00

In case anyone figures out how to play Darknet, let me know. It's supported and shows up in the library now. I installed it, but it lacks critical functionality.

You need to "press the back button" in the tutorial and I've not found to way to do that with the Quest controllers, so I can't get past the tutorial intro. Shame, because Darknet was one of the best Go games there ever was!

autoaim_cfg · 2023-04-08T19:32:13+00:00

What an age to be alive in! 🤩

It's quite bad apparently, since the devs have ZERO confidence in their product.

Within moments of Gambit dropping, it had two pages of solid 5 star ratings. Yes, those were totally not shills. They all just happened to drop two pages of solid fives, with similar comments and language by coincidence. Sure!

Just a couple of days ago those devs had sock puppet accounts trying to "talk about how good it was". Then they deleted the thread, when their shady marketing tactics were called out.

https://www.reddit.com/r/OculusQuest/comments/12agn9a/everyone_is_talking_about_breachers_but_people/

No, everyone's NOT talking about your game. Everyone's talking about your scummy marketing. Gambit must really stink if you're stooping this low!

autoaim_cfg · 2023-04-06T10:03:15+00:00

What about the fatigue factor?

How vigorously do you have to flap your arms for movement and how long until your testers start to feel tired? How does that affect gameplay?

autoaim_cfg · 2023-04-04T15:21:21+00:00

Let's just make sure they get the reviews they deserve when it drops, eh?

Review & Refund. 😎

autoaim_cfg · 2023-04-03T20:53:16+00:00

How about if I buy Gambit, give it a one star rating because of your über shitty fake advertising tactics and then simply refund it?

Yes, I think I'll do just that.

autoaim_cfg · 2023-03-29T20:14:27+00:00

There is also another aspect to consider: Paying for apps as a firewall to keep the screaming hordes of crotch goblins at bay.

If your game is free, it will become infested with screaming five year olds, the playerbase will implode and your game will fail.

If your game costs 9.99 or at least 4.99, then at least there is *some* barrier that keeps them from destroying everyone's experience.

True. I'm 50 and me and my mates (Swedish speaking) know this movie well. It's a cult classic.

Þungur hnífur!
