Was that.. was that Apprehensive Short that they played before the fight before the train comes? Smile I will play the fight tomorrow.. that's it for now. 6 hours of gameplay, and I've only started killing Combine in the last 20 minutes. It's really going to be a 15+ hour game it looks like.

have you played boneworks yet? Laughing
totally fucks my back with all the climbing/mantling

i'm about five or six hours in now, playing on maximum difficulty (was on normal before) i'm not sure if i should lower it again after encountering the combine. they are really tough armor wise, feels like i'm shooting blanks. what i wouldn't give to have a crowbar because i'm perpetually low on ammo like i'm playing nudoom or some shit.. only here the combine don't leak ammo from their assholes.
the combat isn't quite as good as Boneworks so far but the game overall is just a hell of a lot less frustrating and obviously looks much more authentic.
i think on higher difficulties, they expect you to teleport between cover? i use normal locomotion and i get torn to sheds before making it anywhere because it's too damn slow.

as for the dark sections, they are terrifying on the vive, it's very atmospheric.. and fucking dark Laughing

+1

finally a good game!

In awe of how fucking great this thing is, finally a serious production from a studio that know how to do shit right. Playing on Vive, wish i could have got an index for this. All the small details and interaction you can have with the game-world, it never takes control, you see and interact with things or you miss it. So many great moments just fucking about and taking it all in.

If your index is pre-ordered and your awaiting shipping i'd wait (There is always the backlog while waiting). Playing with Vive is fine, your talking an extra 10% more interactivity, rather "trigger, yank" its "make a fist", using health stations would be placing a flat hand, you can tell collision with world objects is really tight would be fun with the index.

There is no melee in the game. You can stop enemies from hitting you by e. g. holding a lid in front of you like a shield, and you can stun enemies by e. g. throwing your empty clip at a Combine soldier, but you can't do damage at anyone with your hands or objects. Valve's decisions always come from extensive playtesting, so it might be to avoid people getting hurt by punching their walls.

So, shield and stun yes, hurt no.

edit: It's also possible that if you grab a headcrab and smash it to the ground you can cause damage. Because this action already exists to smash crates. But this obviously won't work with Combine Laughing who BTW appear massive in this game, very scary Shocked

Guys, spare us the bullshit about how sad you are that others aren't going to be able to play the game. You are annoyed you are not going to play it, plain and simple.

swebarb wrote:

False. Beat Saber has sold over 2 million copies. That's a game casuals enjoy a lot, akin to Guitar Hero, Wii Sports, etc. And there are indies that fail to sell 1/8th of that. VR is casual friendly.

No it won't, but, also, it's a single player game, what do you expect? It's not an MP game you can play for years every day. Wait for L4DVR for that Wink

This is one of the "most" PC games to have ever been created by any definition of the word, from the most basic (it's exclusive to PC because it would need to be watered down to run anywhere else), to the more nuanced (how much it pushes the platform and industry forward).

Maybe not in this title but 'walkiNg dead, saints and sinners' has you covered, melee combat in that game is brutal and fun.

I don’t see this game being converted to normal PC, since you’d just breeze through and not pay attention to details and the handling with the gloves just wouldn’t work to any joy. The game is non-essential to the HL story (seems to me, I have not reached the ending) but certainly a milestone in VR gaming. Valve shows how it’s done even when you’re using minor headsets. I don’t get any motion sickness in contrast to converted Games like Skyrim VR where you move just alot more. Alyx is slower and has more attention to details which makes you move less fast. I still only play an hour at a time.


"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."
