Barn Finders VR Reviews

[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 2[/h1] You can view my initial impressions review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/6LPKysG1k1g So for those of you who remember, I wasn't a big fan of the pre-release demo Barn Finders VR: The Pilot. However, I decided to take a chance and buy this on Steam at the release sale price of less than $13 USD. I can say that the little improvements this game has made since the demo have helped in changing my mind. As long as you don't have high expectations of a VR port, this is a chill, relaxing experience for VR that is easily worth $13 USD and that I do recommend. Yes, this game is no longer teleport only. It has full locomotion, as well as smooth and snap turning (you can set the speed for all). I did not experience any serious issues or bugs. Game is running on the Unreal Engine. On my RTX 3080, I was getting mostly 90 fps on the highest graphical settings. There's lots of options available in the settings & yes, you can play this game comfortably seated. There is a crouch button (and a jump button). However, most of the VR interactions are of the point & click variety. There is no realistic physics. You can pick up any object and it will not have any weight to it and it will not have any physics either. You can use tools such as your axe, shovel, or metal detector. You can use cleaning stations which has a power washer that you can spray items down with to clean them up or an assembly station where you can put items together or a repair station where you bang a hammer on items to fix them. Despite the simple, mostly point & click interactions, this game has a fun, chill, relaxing gameplay loop that is satisfying. You go find items to sell via barn finding or auctions and then you fix them up. Then with the money you make, you upgrade your shop. There's lots of items to collect & some of them are very unique & funny. All characters speak gibberish, but there is a story going on as well. Aliens, ghosts, whatnot will appear while you're out barnfinding. It just keeps things from getting stale. I had fun. Honestly, for $13 USD, I couldn't have asked for more. Yeah, it's a clunky game with jank, but if you can look past that, it's also a fun gameplay loop if you're into this sort of thing.

Honestly, this is low key one of the best VR games. Unlike many VR games, this is a FULL REAL GAME. Big levels to explore and search for items. Lots of hidden items and out of reach areas that require special items to access. When you're done scavenging the level you go back home and open your shop and customers come in and buy the stuff that you found. Lots of special items too that require parts and assembly. Graphics are above average with nice level design. Works well in VR. I have envountered some minor bugs but nothing gamebreaking. Playing using the Vive controllers.

Exact same game as Barn Finders, only in VR. That’s a good thing in my opinion. I own the original Barn Finders, and I like it. I’m glad to see they didn’t change anything, or screw anything up. First time I loaded BFVR up, I had no audio. The game ran smooth, but it was completely silent. I uninstalled it then reinstalled it, and everything works perfect now. The game runs smooth, and the audio and visuals look great. If you like the original Barn Finders, you’ll love Barn Finders VR. No complaints here. Solid 4/5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

its just like playing the other one but VR, I have the pc version and VR. they can use a little tweaking but its a solid game.
