Bootstrap Island Reviews

slow start but still an amazing game

Good game, I don't have time to write an essay on the game, sorry

Unfortunately the game runs poorly on my system no matter the graphical options I choose (I average around 70 fps and for VR I need stable 90 fps otherwise I get motion sick). RTX 3070 Ryzen 5 5600X 16 GB RAM

So its a okay game but i dont like the night, i cant see even with a fire. played with my brightness and still cant see. and i dont care for the night mobs, but you can play without them, however of you do, you wont unlock to good items, i think the book is one of them, so you cant build cos you need that. the chest are all the same stuff. i feel like nothing should really change just cos you turn off the mob, but you wont need to eat or drink. so maybe add another game mod for us who would like to play without the night mobs. also it you do play without night mobs, you lose day mobs too. like the pigs, anything that fights back. why idk. there are a lot of game where you can play peaceful and still get do survival stuff, but this aint it. in fact, i think it also turns off storms... i dont get it. i just dont wanna fight mobs in the dark. and for that i lose out on everything? i holpe that changes cos there are not a lot of openworld vr games, and its such a good idea. also add crafting, like weapons standing torches. its a "survival game" right? we need sons of the forest vr. i wanna stream this game so bad, but unless i turn off peaceful mode. i got nothing to do but burn wood.

THIS GAME IS INCREDIBLE. everything looks amazing and feels even better, they take their time on updates and listen to the community. Easily the best vr survival game that currently exists

Definitely an interesting game! Very beautiful and intuitive on the game play. Like filling up the pistol with powder and being able to over fill, definitely increase the immersion. That aside, I don't enjoy it at this time. Peaceful mode is boring and the regular game is way too difficult. I would like a mode with something in between. Long days and long nights where the "night" doesn't kill me. I don't like the random animals that just sort of appear out of nowhere and kill me. I have been alone in the woods at night, animals don't just appear and start attacking you. Yes there is the random odd bobcat or coyote but they have to be excessively hungry or territorial to attempt messing with a human with fire. I've been in the woods when a whole herd of Boar were roaming the woods, they saw me and continued on their way because I was no threat to them. Do boar still attack people? Absolutely. Just don't make the critters appear out of nowhere and just immediately start trying to eat you, very unrealistic. For the people that like that, leave it. For the others please add a mode that doesn't include that and then I would love this game. I would also love some base bulding, co-op, etc. This could be the definitive VR experience if you guys did that. Until then a cheat or something to pause the day and let me go around the island but still get attacked from random animals would be very fun.

*SPOILERS IN THIS REVIEW* This game is really fun, and it's my favorite VR game so far. However, after I beat Seymour and got the boots, I tried to go to the Riverlands, but it rained and there were no caves around. Because of that I lost ~5 hours of work. If the dev sees this, please update it to where this can't happen. I get the weather is supposed to work against the player and be random, but this is just ridiculous.

the game is very good, i really recommend buying the game. but for my gameplay i bought the game for the items, realism, and game. then i found out i need to unlock the items and that made me a bit sad, i would even buy the unlocks if i could. but yeah great game, i do like it very much. i am not making you buy this game but it is really good, if you dont have money for it then play the demo a try.

This game is an absolute SLOG. The stuff they show in the trailers? HA! Good luck getting anywhere near that. 2 hours played and it was just the same boring trek. The only wildlife is Hogs. That's it. Other than that, all you'll ever see is the monsters that come every night. There is a pistol you can find. To defend yourself you say? HA! Its worthless due to the fact you CANNOT carry any more than 2 items, 1 in each hand, and to operate the pistol you have to have: The pistol itself, powder, and shot. THATS 3 ITEMS!! What is even the point of the pistol being in the game! And the worst part about it is when you find the pistol, all the balls are in a nice little box with like 8-10 in there. So its like they show you what you could be using, but because your character is pants on head retarded, you cant use it due to inane carry limitations. I wanted to like the game, its very pretty. But they SERIOUSLY need to revamp the beginning of the game.

I really like this game. I saw the road map and it had people in it, I really hope you don't make them (only) hostile; or maybe you could give them specific locations they can be in. I'm also really excited about how the story will turn out. Here's some things I would like to see in the game: [*] More small pois, just obscure formations of sand or something so its easier to know where you're at. For example a small pond with a rock in the middle, or more weird statues like that 1 on the hill. [*] Making the knife not take up so much space in the sachel, or make me able to carry 2 sachels and a musket. If thats not possible then a voice line saying something along the lines of "You realised you would not be able to carry [i] everything [/i] on your shoulders". [*] A cave where there is some story elements in it or just something. I just wanna explore a cave thats all. [*] Of course more goals, but I know you're already working on that. I think that's all. Would recommend again
