Boneworks was pretty much the first VR title I played, never had motion sickness but then I tried Contractors VR and got really irritated less than 20mins everytime and couldn't play it, the main factor was frame drops that kept happening but now I'm used to those too, I can proudly say that no game can give me motion sickness for I have dared to play Gmod online in VR...

Great vid and a good subject. I feel, like in the old pancake days, as the tech increases, all these physics mechanics goes into the tech pool and eventually combine them all to make amazing experiences. We're in the Nintendo era of VR with occasional greatness like Alyx

[@xXYannuschXx]

The problem is: most games these days lack these physic objects or interactive objects; this is part of the reason why flatscreen to VR ports dont work well (not just because of the missing weapon handling), the world just feels dead. We somehow went from Crysis 1 (where the trees reacted to explosions and gunfire) and Red Faction Guirella (were you could demolish entire buildings) to games were you can throw a grenade into an office space and the only effect you see is a burn mark sprite on the ground...

[@gabzsy4924]

Agree 100% about Blade and Sorcery. Such a shame too. Hope they fix things. Using two handed weapons is so junky right now, even more so in enclosed spaced.

I've always said I didn't like FPS games, and didn't find them immersive because of "floating hands". Then VR comes along and literally has "Floating hands" in certain games. When I can see my arms and look down at my body though... man I am there.

It makes the experience much better, stealth kills are so great in this game as well.

tip for climbing in blade and sorcery: when you reach the top of the structure you just climbed, instead of trying to further climb up to reach the top, its much easier just to fling yourself over the edge. grab the ledge with one or two hands, raise your arms above you, and push down your arms while letting go. this'll fling you upwards and usually on top of the structure.

[@thelelanatorlol3978]

For boneworks where you were talking about the odd physics quirks, pushing against an immovable object will naturally push you back instead (newtons third law), and the character automatically crouching when airborne is because people were having trouble figuring out that you need to crouch in the air to vault over obstacles easily so they just made it automatic. As for climbing, you can be very fast at it if you understand that the game applies forces to your character to match your real life arm positions to your virtual arms. Play by the games rules and you will find the gameplay much smoother.

[@musty33421]

[@crimblr]

In blade and sorcery, you can jump when you are grabbing walls, so you can get over them easily. The arrow stabbing bug is a common problem, and you can’t stab them with other weapons sometimes like swords and axes. However, I’m pretty sure it can be fixed by grabbing and letting go of the person who you’re trying to stab

[@bashfulunicorn7399]

In bone works when you push on desks and tables the reason why you crouch is to help you climb and get up on to ledges or what ever you’re trying to get on top of

[@Iamgudjoe]

The biggest and only problem I have with Boneworks is that it seems like they used one sound effect for EVERY single gun. If each gun was distinctive in how it sounds, it would be more rewarding to use different weapons, and I feel that each shot would be more satisfactory if the sound design was more immersive in this way, adding power and kick to the gun in your brain each time you fire it.

[@theweekendtrollge6329]

For hellsplit horse combat use one hand to hold the pike on each side. Also make it so your horse is as close to the enemy as possible so it's harder for them to dodge. You can break their shields, totally break through their armor, and stab them way easier. Also you can use snap turning to turn your horse around easier.

[@daffix1337]

I was suprised that you didn't roast boneworks for no reason like in the "Best gunplay in VR" video . BTW in Blade & Sorcery if you are struggling with trying to get over a legde you can press the jump button to boost yourself up the legde. I personaly like boneworks more because it lets you do a lot of stuff , for example you can watch my last video where I used the physics in to my advantage. I also think Vertigo remastered should have been in this video because like HLA it is VERY polished and has melee with no jank (HLA should have used something similar).

[@AlexMonifest]

Boneworks - simultaneously pulling the trigger and grip to draw the weapon makes accidental draws less likely. But with 100% probability they lead to unintentional shooting in an unknown direction. And given that the game has been abandoned for a long time, sooner or later this will begin to happen not only on not very popular VR systems like Reverb G2, but on all systems in general. Walking Dead also has a whole bunch of problems, and it's not surprising again with the weapon draw system, especially after the last update which was clearly pulled with its last legs and it's unlikely we will see any patches or updates in the future. Alex is having issues with graphic settings where the game looks like it is on the lowest settings on the highest settings, the problem is a broken rendering system in the viewport, when was the last time Alex was updated there? And all these problems appeared over time, the software of VR systems is updated, games is not = a lot of rubbish. On systems like Index they might still work fine, on everyone else... welcome to the casino world, you're either lucky or you're not. P.s. The system for simultaneously pressing the trigger and grip for getting out of the holster is not used anywhere. Because: 1) Since when is this a problem? How can it happen that you suddenly wanted to press the grip in extremely hard-to-reach places on the body? 2) You learn very quickly not to do this. Without idiotic solutions like, "HEY! You need to get a gun, come on you pull the TRIGGER, it's safe!" 3) This leads to problems when you start shooting while drawing your weapon. 4) It goes against any normal brain function or gun handling rules.

This video is very good, but one critique is that i have to mention is how little justice you did the climbing in Blade and Sorcery. Its actually the least heavy of the three you mention with climbing--it really feels like it simulates the use of your legs much more than most other games, and it allows you to fling your arms to leap between grab points and jump off of walls, as well as swing off of lanterns, keeping parity with your arm position. By far the best movement of all of these, though admittedly its unrealistic, as you can grab almost any edge on any environment. Makes climbing buildings like youre in Assassin's Creed real easy though. Also if you ever find yourself needing to climb up to the top of a ledge, I have an easy solution that ONLY works in B&S, not the others--First, grab the ledge with both hands like youd assume. Second, raise your hands a bit so youre hanging from the ledge. Finally, fling your arms like you intend to vault over/on top of the ledge, while releasing grab and pressing jump. You'll fling yourself up and over the edge and land atop with no issues. Once you get used to it, its one of the most satisfying climbing systems in any VR game IMO.

i appreciate this review it was very accurate tho there is a few things you could've mentioned, you can go back to older updates in blades and sorcery if you feel like the older versions were better, you can also use mods from that time, boneworks is lanky but is meant for people who have good grip of the vr mechanics as said in the menu ''this game is for for expert VR users" (i have over 300 hours on the game alot on climbing and yes; as much as i defend any critisism thrown towards the game, it does feel lanky but once you get used to the climbing and other janks it feels flawless) other than that amazing video not many people actually compare like this and you sir have earned a new sub

I really hope you offer consulting to VR developers. It’s a Wild West out there and your insight would propel many indie studios.

Its something I would love to do to be honest

@@virtualinsider I am hundred percent sure that some of your subscribers are devs. I remember reading comments from them. I am sure they will appreciate your input.
