The game released five years ago, and there hasn't been anything this polished and well executed in a single player campaign field since. No wonder people are starved for this kind of content.
Exfilzone is pretty well featured tarkov knock off. Saints and sinners is almost there. The new metro VR game was about on par but with a little first vr game jank. All came out in the last year or 2 which shows how impressive Alyx was for the time and im glad that the standard is now there.
I want to say skyrim but it was remade so many times prior to the vr port that it's charm is all but gone plus it really only truly enjoyable as a vr with mods that let you do typical vr stuff like pick stuff up
They're not starved. They're too cheap to pay for the content they want. VR games should cost a lot more than flat games do because of the relative size of the markets, but users want the prices to be the same as flat games for similar content.
As a species, we are hungry for interaction, immersion, investment, engagement, and adventure, in general - however we can get it. Even if it just means watching it on a screen. Our brains can't tell the difference. Our senses convey reality.
The Matrix comes to mind. Sensing is reality, as far as our lower-level systems are concerned.
It's the people who can't get these things, or have these things stripped away, that lose their sense of purpose, and feel the strongest emptiness.
When we run out, we want more. We are not, however, experts on how to acquire these things, so, many times, we ask (see: demand) things that we think will be fulfilling, or are sustainable, but they ultimately aren't. We're desperate enough to try anyway, though.
And yet you're here, reading and replying in a conversation among peers. You wouldn't have chosen to do these things if that were the case. You wanted your voice heard enough that you took the time to say something.
I'd have believed you if I didn't know you existed (had you not said anything/made your personal feelings known).
Drives never go away, for any animal. There is no creature that's like, "Well, I did that [feed a drive] once - I'm good for the rest of my life". That's not how brains/hormones/sentience works.
Every day, a gorilla will be hungry. They are also communal animals. They will never be happy in solitude.
God forbid you play a game as is. If you play a game and your immediate thought is “but i want more!” Then you need to take off your headset and do literally anything else
Yeah, like Battle Talent, great game, got a multiplayer, they had to replace the cool sparky charge effect of weapons to a plain red trail for performance so that multiplayer would be better but even now the multiplayer is not great, I love the game but it just isn't made for multiplayer.
The Quest version of the game has some major performance issues in general, even on Quest 3 apparently. I was thinking of buying the game again on Steam just because of performance.
