Kayak VR: Mirage Is Ridiculously Immersive..

[@GreyMatterShades]

Man, I can't wait to play this on PSVR 2. I never got into PC VR, so the closest I've come to anything like this in VR is the Maldives level in Hitman 2. Jumping in there and ignoring the mission objectives felt like VR tourism for a while, but this is gonna be a whole new level. Great video!

[@Spaceopticsguy2010]

There are some VR experiences to be had that really argue for the positive aspects of the technology. This is one of them. Very relaxing and enjoyable. Years ago I used to kayak on a reef near the beach where I live and this definitely enough back some nice memories. Great video.

[@rogueprotage8859]

My wife would love this, you can clearly see the time the creators put into this

[@lozic8824]

She played it yet??

[@philgreen815]

It doesn't get much better than this. An amazing VR experience that has recently added another level which just blows my mind.

[@Peter-gu9ph]

Kayak VR Mirage is NOW available as a physical version on PSVR 2 from Limited Run Games - pre-orders are open til Sunday 22nd December 2024 - only 1 more week! I am definitely getting this - just waiting for a couple of other LRG releases in the next few days so I can get them all shipped together...

The sea turtle, when I first saw him, made me cry. This is a sandbox game that is mostly a proof of concept, but holy shit it made me feel things

I hope to be getting the psvr2 on launch day and this is definitely a game that ill try. I could buy it on my pc and use my quest 2 but then id have to buy it twice

I’m not sure if it’ll be on PSVR right away but I promise, if you have a good PC you won’t regret just going for it.

[@lovecraftwithkatherine]

Oh my gosh, I love this video so much, and I love how you review this game. My reaction to the turtle was exactly the same. This game has been a lifesaver for me. Suffering from PTSD, my husband bought this to help me with coming out of a trigger spiral, and as you said, the tranquillity and therapeutic-ness of this game are absolutely golden... hats off to the creators

[@MrWhitty2000]

Thanks! I tried to share the feeling the game gave me with the edit so much appreciated.

[@anomalychasing5383]

Wicked. I can feel the sense of depth in the water as you row from shallow to deep areas, just watching on my laptop. I cant imagine being inside this experience. Day one must buy for sure. And what a showcase for the uninitiated to VR.

[@TforTofu]

dang I wish I could play this on my quest. That water looks refreshing 🌊

[@mannfahrtrad5773]

I dont know about Quest 1, but I play it on my Quest 3 - linked via Virtual Desktop to PC. Smooth as one can wish for.

[@FlexDRG]

Just picked up the game. I play it over wifi with the steam link on the Q2. Do get some motion sickness. But perhaps a bit more VR time will have my body trained.

[@70nikroxx]

hey happy holidays, I just got a psvr2 moving from quest 2.. horizon...that alone was enough for the money I spent. you said the same thing I said about the reason getting in VR, when I was playing video games, I said only if I could be in the game and interacting. and here we are , 2024 ! thanks for the review and game play, happy holidays everyone :) actually im getting this next..like tomorrow lol

[@stebennett3453]

Great game was playing it for a good few hours the other night and i can vouch for how real it seems and is the closest thing to real kayaking.

[@SuperCakeKing]

you wanna know whats more real and is the closest thing to real kayaking that also costs the price of a pc and a vr headset? going fucking kayaking

Thnx

[@ThomasGrillo]

This really is an amazing game! I tried it, but didn't have the stick to connect between the controllers. It just arrived, and I'm looking forward to adding that touch of realism to my game experience. I only wish the devs would let us twist the paddle, the way we do in real life, in a canoe, or even a kayak, to act as a rudder. For that matter, the devs really need to work on a canoe version of this. If we ever do send people to the moon, or mars, this game should be a must for them to maintain their psychological wellbeing. Thanks for sharing this. :)

[@AmanBansil]

This is the video that I would have made for a game like this. I didn't understand why people weren't hyper focusing on what it feels like to play this! I've only played PSVR 1 for about a week. I'm getting this on the PSVR2...this should be a great intro to VR and cool non-game title. I really hope others make non-game titles for PSVR2 like this one. There's def a market for them.

[@charlieg6913]

Are there many other locations? Seems like the whole video is you just sitting in 2 spots.

I just wish there was a rowing addon so I can use my rower

[@MrWhitty2000]

Just slap the controllers on something. I personally had grips on my controllers while holding I think a drumstick or a broom handle at the time I can't remember. It honestly takes less than you'd think to get really immersive.

[@the_real_stingfloyd]

@@MrWhitty2000 yeah but I am talking about conventional, 2 padels rowing not kayaking. Or... Is it possible to do that?

It's just more noticeable sometimes watching VR. In real life our brains help smooth things out until we are quite a bit more sideways. Some games have a very good stabilizer but this one sadly didn't.

MrWhitty2000 - you are like an American version of me! I have a rather wacky sense of humour also, and recently bought this game and feel just like you about it, it is therapeutic.
