Good game with a few issues:
* In some places, the textures are blurrier than others(e.g.: giant doors).
* Parry system is a pain in the ass, I wish they had just a simple tutorial map where you could practice it endlessly without dying.
* I noticed hiccups when running here and there but, CPU and GPU usage wasn't high, it looked like the game kept trying not to load too much stuff at once, which makes no sense for my system:
Quest 2 Link on USB cable
AMD 7950X
RTX 4090
G.Skill 64GiB 6000MT/s CL30 RAM
Kingston Fury 1TB SSD
Hiccups can't be blamed on quest + link setup since it doesn't happen on other games.

The game play is very souls like, but also like most vr games it's very easy since you can just poke poke and slash while using your grapple to make the enemy stay stunned 80% of the time. Other than that tho the parry system is fun alongside how the enemies try and change their attacks mid swing sometimes. Overall the graphics look nice, puzzles are short and sometimes fun, weapon mechanics are cool but have occasional issues and the boss fights are more cinematic than a challenging but that's fine with me cause it feel's like a movie scene

- Combat is really fun and appropriately challenging sometimes. Like dark souls combat but actually fair and not dark souls difficulty.
- Parrying feels precise, fair, and satisfying.
- Combat progresses well over the campaign with new weapons, abilities, and boss fights.
- Does well building upon the feel and depth of world that Shadow of the Colossus has. Beautiful views.
- Shadow of the Colossus boss fights also translate really well to VR climbing and stabbing.
- Much more of my genre of game than Saints and Sinners.
- The final boss and ending were super cool and satisfying.
[h3]Bad[/h3]
- No accessibility settings at all, not even left handed controls or disabling virtual turning. Very disappointing, especially for a game of this size and budget.
- Lots of head-locked HUD elements. They’re also all impossible to read on a bigscreen beyond.
- Story isn’t very deep.
- The first behemoth’s final phase was not well explained at all and took me a number of deaths to figure out.
- I paused on the credits and the music stopped. Not a great final impression.
Overall a super enjoyable AAA VR game worthy of your dopamine!

The combat does have its flaws, the velocity with the grappling hook kinda sucks, but overall this game is great. Literally one of the best VR games I have ever played.

I had an issue where I would launch the game from steamvr home and then I would get an error saying headset not detected, to fix it I had to launch the game through steam but without opening steamvr before it and then the game launches properly.
Anyways, this is a good linear VR game, yes most of the playable areas are not very large apart from the boss arenas but at the same time they have enough space for you to engage in combat without being completely boxed in and also have several secret areas to find.
The graphics in this game are very good, no complaints there apart from some rare screen flickering in a few very specific areas.
The combat is decent, I think it's better than Tales of Glory combat but definitely not as good as in Blade and Sorcery.
The game would be even better if there were more behemoths to fight because you will be spending most of the time fighting the normal human sized enemies.
Overall I would rate this game 7/10, it's definitely not a genre defining game but I still had a lot of fun completing it, especially fighting the second behemoth which was an amazing experience in vr and using the grappling hook is fun as well.

Just beat my first boss: Shacklehide
I can't think of a better way to describe this except to say it's Shadow of the Colossus VR.
I hope Skydance makes another one or keeps pumping out more DLC's. A truly cinematic experience that was giving me the Bumps of Geese.

I haven't finished the game yet but I wanted to post a review while the sale is still going because this is a must-buy at $20. I waited until I beat the first behemoth because a handful of reviews said there were bugs in that fight but I just fell that beast and I still haven't encountered any bugs at all.
Basically, this is Shadow of the Colossus meets Blade & Sorcery with very high production values. You will be climbing colos- I mean, behemoths and stabbing their weak points and all that fun stuff. It's mildly disappointing that an NPC says there's only 3 behemoths in the game, maybe there's a secret final one, I don't know yet, but unlike Shadow of the Colossus, this game has a lot of human enemies and bosses, as well, and that's where the Blade & Sorcery comparisons come in.
When fighting humans you have a variety of weapons and tools at your disposal. You have to block, parry, dodge, lunge, break through armor and shields until you can stab the sweet, tender meat inside. You can also activate a strength buff temporarily which often lets you just cleave enemies clean in two. It's a fairly satisfying combat system.
Overall, my first impressions are that this is awesome and everyone with VR needs to buy it. I will update this once I complete the game but, for now, I think it's well worth the $20.

the only thing going for it is the graphics, the rest is lackluster at best and the combat feels like a complete joke. you can just defeat the first guard boss thingy by just tapping him repeatedly with a sword. throwing weapons is so assisted it feels bad to do. throwing knives are just basically free kills, this is not fun. movement feels really wierd too but its hard explain.

This game almost feels deceptive with its marketing. I came in expecting a Shadow of the Colossus VR clone. Instead, I got disappointment. Wren is so slow, he cannot outrun the immortal snail. Sprinting ONLY works in the direction you're facing, The first boss is really confusing and unintuitive, and waiting for Sitja to scream the answer in your ear is boring. Deflecting enemy weapons is a crapshoot, and two handed weapons are unusable, since Wren will ONLY swing them vertically, no matter where I put my hands. Oh, and I had to look up how to open the coffin with the legendary sword, because the "push" prompt never appeared for me. Don't play this game. Just play Blade and Sorcery. Hector is a better giant climbable VR boss anyways.

BUYER DISCRETION FOR META QUEST 3 AND VIRTUAL DESKTOP USERS
I'm sure this game is great. but unfortunately I cannot recommend this game. This game is riddled with technical issues including issues with virtual desktop and gameplay issues. Upon first loading up a new game, hand models do not load in and therefore I cannot grab any weapons. An issue that was prevalent since release but ignored. I am beyond disappointed as I truly want to experience this game. I cannot even go past the first 5 minutes of the game. Quality from Skydance Games has truly gone downhill.
