WHELP guys, they reused some animations, now there's no way I'll enjoy scavenging in this stylized post-apocalyptic wasteland video game.

In every conceivable way, this game will be worse than the Witcher.


Will probably play it anyway though.

The inventory might have a better interface.

Plus flamethrowers are cooler than fireballs.

I can't think of any company where the fans hate it as much as Bethesda fans hate bethesda. Maybe Bioware?

Ever heard of a little company called Blizzard?

You play strategy games like you are an eye in the sky. Lean in, look around, fly around taking it all in. The stereoscopic part about VR is the 'wow' factor and it works insanely well with an RTS type game. The upshot is your brain is ok with this.
FPS are a problem because it's so convincing that your brain has real trouble with sitting down when it thinks you should be running. That and the way we make fps right now isn't realistic at all. Nobody runs and jumps around like fps characters do, nobody holds a gun on the side of their face and nobody has their head locked to the movements of their hands like characters do in FPSs (Arma being an exception).
You can't just slap VR on a game and have it work well, it's a whole new thing you have to make work.

Those are all interesting points. Now I'm wondering if Arma would translate to the Oculus more smoothly than other games.

Will a VPN help me play this on my TI-89? US Central Time if it matters.
