The Metaverse

[Crims]

Half-Life Alyx is made for VR. Has anyone played it? It's apparently very good.

To be honest I like it, though it's not enough for me to buy a VR Headset.

Meta recently held a 'half million party' for the EU, and a virtual party in-game. Very questionable

Did you play it with the mouse and keyboard mod then?

Yep. There's a novr mod for it which makes it easy to play. And via VR arcade.

Sounds good. It's the headset issue that's stopped me from buying it. Do you have a link to it please?

Quality of gameplay suffers a lot to be honest. I'd wait until VR is cheap enough that you could play it in an arcade, as they're making a sequel.

Facebooks' acquisition of VR publishers is a net negative, most of the insider game article-writers are saying. *Sorry, no link today
They recently closed the most popular VR esport and John Carmack was replaced by a CEO for advertisements on Facebook. I'm going to say that if you're interested in the metaverse, look for popular titles not being published by Facebook.

New updates for HLA novr via moddb! The quality of VR titles is starting to get much better.
