What makes BROKEN EDGE VR so amazing?

[@VirtualBroVR]

I'm overwhelmed by the support this first video has gotten! Thank you all so much. I really hope to continue creating videos like this and if you want to support me further here's a link :) bmc.link/virtualbro

[@elmiacho3061]

Bro if you like this game you need to try out Oathbreakers, its basically this type of combat but in an mmo - its an absolute hidden gem

Your profile picture kind of looks like a frog

If you're looking for a video idea, I would suggest a video about the rise and growth of blade and sorcery

[@oliver-nation4377]

But why did they need to make the vr game with the worst graphics they could get their hands on...

[@trebuchetstudio]

Thank you for the great words about our game and for making this video. We appreciate the support and we will continue to work hard to make Broken Edge one of the best VR games there is!

[@randyking2057]

Your game looks beautiful not only in art but the way you play when I get a vr headset this will be the first game I'll buy

[@jordanmcgraw3455]

Congratulations on your release Trebuchet, your game is gorgeous and undoubtably well designed. Wishing the best for your future projects.

[@WarayVan]

It's so beautiful, please talk about your art and game design process in your channel

[@krimson4257]

(This may be a dumb idea but meh i think it sounds like it has some potential) what about a sort of bayonet class, where the "stance" is holding it up to your chest like your aiming the rifle, and then you have one quick jab at the enemy. It could also have a side bullet feature that serves to diminish a small portion of the enemies sword once per round, as a way to force them into a parry before your attack?

[@aliciafraser1835]

I usually don't like quest specific games, they always feel like lesser versions of the beefier PC games, but this is definitely the first for me at least that doesn't come off that way. I'll have to give it a try when I can.

Check out into the radius, it’s a year old but it is 100% one of the most fleshed out vr games I’ve played. Great story matched with amazing mechanics

[@VirtualBroVR]

I love Into the Radius!!! I'm still considering making video about it!

[@VirtualBroVR]

@chrisbattey-so2hw coming up next!!

[@YouWantaBath]

I own into the radius but my controllers had major drift back then so I never played it. Is it worth still picking up.

[@El_Andru]

Good lenght of video? Shows the actual game? Gets to the point? Talks about design? Curated content? Decent memes? What is this god send? Feels like a boon from Hades just landed in my algorithm. Thanks man.

[@VirtualBroVR]

Haha thanks for such an awesome comment!

[@trickygamer555]

Just got my first TIE in this game. You wouldn't ever expect that to happen, but in the 5th round both my and the opponent's blade stomps permanently broke at the same time. I'm positively surprised that the game didn't softlock there. Got 6 rounds of battle in a single match there.

[@JessieShadowhold]

I would have loved to hear more about the sword breaking mechanics we're seeing here. I did Olympic fencing in high school and there's a lot of rules about perries in that, both right-of-way rules about who started moving forward first, and rules about the 'strong' part of the blade vs the 'weak' part (strong=closest to the hilt, weak = closest to the top) and how that dictates who got the perry and therefor the point when both participants hit each other at the same time. It looks like there's something to do with that in the sword breaking mechanic here and I love that idea.

[@RuneArtifact]

hey I was in a similar boat: I did some fencing and I picked up the game and main duelist (the closest class to fencing irl) I would recommend doing the same as it’s been a lot of fun. the games real strategy with the sword breaking mechanics aren’t really explained well in the video, however I promise you it’s really fun once you get it.

[@icecreambone]

that's really interesting, it's like they took a page out of priority from fencing and enhanced it

[@bruhbruhson8864]

I was very excited for broken edge when it first came out, however in my mind it could never overshadow how much fun Ironlights was back in the day.

[@Saltyneep]

Bro casually just drops one of the hardest VR vids of the year. Even 10 dollars is hard to spend rn

[@nudgemepapi2804]

i appreciate that you can play it in mixed reality so i dont have to maul my furniture every so often

[@Atri4]

Damn, didn't expect such a smart way of solving spam-slashing, this looks amazing!

[@nicolasfournier8306]

My coworker was a dev for this game, now working with us on Aloft, but it's so nice to see appreciation for this game :D They did a ton of great work!

[@EthanLlewellyn-q8p]

No matter what class u play it feels like your always improving your strategies for every character

[@ricket6598]

One gripe i had about the game is probably the one thing that everyone loves about it. The blocking. I have actually trained with swords, and you are always taught to block near your hilt and on the far side of their blade because of how much stronger you are compared to them. The thing is, this game wants the opposite. I constantly instinctively blocked like how i was trained and kept losing because of it. It became frustrating because i was fighting years of muscle memory. But i can still see the love that this game has put into it and respect the developers for it

[@ukaszanioowski9722]

the pirate is the definition of: i have more weapons than you have health

[@Happr.]

thank you for making this because I didn't understand the mechanics of the game and awakening your blade but now I know and I don't feel like I wasted my time and money on the game.

[@DarkReaper2597]

I don't even play VR games but this was well worded and well done video! you sir rock!

[@SirQuillinXI]

I've always wanted a game like this. Principles like this is what Sword Art Online is based off of. Sword Arts can activate sword skills which make them lethal. Positioning is how it happens and is really immersive

[@jiro8233]

I scrolled down to see if anyone commented this. This is just like sword skills is sao, a show I absolutely love. I wonder if this game also has the vulnerability frames after a sword skill is complete

[@BasementMinions]

Oh man that awakened mechanic is just too smart!!

[@zuppetto_9664]

That sound so cool. I don’t have a vr headset but if I did I would play it everyday

I played Ironlights for a long while and really enjoyed it's take on PVP blade combat, and I still recommend it But I think I am going to be checking this one out too.

[@GuillaumePerreaultRoy]

We (BE devs) have a lot of respect for Ironlights. PvP Melee combat is one of the great challenges of VR, I think both games are pioneers of the genre (recognizing that Ironlights came first). I get triggered that many comments are dismissing us as a copy of Ironlights. We do everything differently: movement, blade clashes, offense, defense, health, everything is radically different! They have ranged attacks, we have Blade Arts and secondary blades. We also have different strategies to mitigate latency. And for the record, all of BE's main design orientation were set in stone when Ironlights released. It gets to me because it implies we disrespect Ironlights. Of course we can't ask for all comments to informed, weighted feedback (I can guess those persons didn't play the game or listen to this video). I think both games propose great takes on PvP VR Melee combat, and that both game focus on different aspects. We both are pushing the genre forward.

[@sonofaglitch7549]

It's great to see my favourite genre brought to my favourite medium

[@thatonerandomperson5109]

definitely gained a subscriber, and this game seems a lot like ironlight on steroids. keep up the great videos!

[@casmak141]

Not tried yet but the way explained the concept sounds genius.Working around a hardware problem (weight simulation ) gameplay based solution. Kinda like eye of the temple. Took a lemon and made lemonade. I think the saying is necessity is the mother of invention

[@Sqweeshie]

as a massive fan of "Swords of Gurrah" i feel obligated to try and point more people to that game. its a full movement, full body (minus kicks) pvp melee fighter. it also has a mechanic to prevent sword spamming. when your blade hits anything, be it the ground, another person, or another weapon, it shatters. your weapon also shatters if you get hit. getting hit or landing a hit, breaks both blades and they reform at the same time. the time it takes to reform depends on your parry (if you are defending) the closer to the hilt of the weapon you block, the faster your blade reforms (polearms parry is inbetween your hands) SoG is a super fun game, with a really fun skill floor and ceiling, theres no forced style to play as, but you can choose to fight in a more "roleplay-y" manner (the katana has a system that incentivizes sheathing and unsheathing your blade) to quote one steam review as well... "Best multiplayer melee combat for VR yet. Real combat techniques produce real results."

[@VirtualBroVR]

I looked it up and it literally sounds like my dream game! I'm so sad it's not on Quest, it would gain so many players.

[@pirate546]

one of the most satisfying game experiences ever wooooow

[@vanessa.nguyen]

Wow, what a great video! It felt like you were telling a story

I cant believe he didn't talk about gorilla tag when it was in app labs, best game on vr and still stands as one of the greatest games if not the greatest

If you bought a fan for the fog on the lenses try putting just a small amount of dish soup on it and clean it before using it, it takes it off completely no matter how hor it gets

oooookay adding this game, along with a vr headset, to the list of things i want that could potentially replace getting a nerf gun for my 13th bday

motion inputs in a vr fighting game, brilliant

[@silverfish012]

I underrated the look of this game but because of Echo shutting down I have to look for something new to entertain me and with this insight of the game I wanna go ahead give this game a shot. I always love the idea of sword fighting but I thought it was impossible with vr but with this simultaneously being fun and teaching you, it’s sparked a powerful interest in me.

pose and movement based vr gameplay is my favorite. ive only found 2 so far. broken edge, and rumble

[@mayuwu4408]

this game looks awesome!!! I loooove that awakening mechanic and the philosophy behind it, thats good game design!! it keeps things feeling fluid and not clunky while forcing you to be more practiced and move the weapon like you would a real one. the fighting styles feel just as stylized as the artstyle is!! speaking of, the artstyle is also very cool!! (although seeing whats going on seems to be difficult sometimes, perhaps players and weapons having a border or more contrast from the backgrounds could help there). looks like a ton of fun!! (dont have vr to ;w;) also, seeing as you compared it to Mortal Combat, I assume you've never heard of For Honor? I say that because For Honor is similar to this game in many ways and if you were familiar with it then you probably would have used it as a comparison instead of Mortal Combat. It's also in that 'kinda like a fighting game but also not, it's weird' category lol, you pick between different classes of medieval warriors across different factions (Knights, Vikings, Samurai, Wu Lin, and others!) and fight! its not a VR game but I really like it, and if you like this maybe you could take a look at it!

[@mrchief975]

This looks amazing!

Another game that has a similar feel to broken edge is called RUMBLE and it' a VR earthbending 1v1 game that I really recommend

I think a game you should try is into the radius it's a great survival game that also brings in horror it's fun and you get to strategize your missions working up to better guns it's also has a really interesting story

(Attaches elastic strings to vr controllers) i hope all this time spent studying one piece has taught me something

This is similar to the idea i have for my game, except i'm not thinking of classes but the movements being part of the weapons themselves as there will be no classes as such.

exactly!!

[@l4dfanatic11]

i would recommend you try ironlights for a different take on the "non-physics" VR pvp swordfighting genre...it uses regenerating weapons and slow motion during the fighting, managing energy used to make an attack, while your opponent defends, both of you with weapons that you need to regen via moving behind you, like a sort of windup... it's rather unique and really the best system ive found, as with broken edge ive found alot of twitchy kinda weird stuff going on at times that im not a fan of :L
