I definitely prefer this to Beat Saber. The relatively simpler mechanics gel much more with physical movement. It's much easier to feel the connection the music and your body.
Less custom maps, but enough of them for me.

Loved Beat Saber. If you haven't played any rhythm games on VR buy Beat Saber first, Pistol Whip second, and this last if you've already played the other two for an insane amount of time. The other two feel much better to play, more satisfying, better music, and just overall more enjoyable. Not to say this is bad but it's just fully outclassed and looks like since I played it's gotten worse off of other reviews here.

THIS GAME IS NOTHING LIKE BEAT SABER! stop lying to people! I purchased this game after complaining to my bestie I wanted something different to play in VR, She suggested SR and YES! hit the mark. After playing Beat Saber for 4 years religiously, I can categorically say IT IS NOTHING LIKE BEAT SABER! It has a who different vibe, yes its a rhythm game but different dynamics, music, mapping, scenes and being able to download custom so easily is the best! Discord servers are available for the game itself and custom mappers 10/10 Foxxii approved!

I see a lot of comparisons to Beat Saber for this game, but I am going to be honest - I don't really see it. Synth Riders is loads better than Beat Saber in my opinion because the movements feel so much more intuitive to the music, and as a result, the game is a lot more fun and engaging than Beat Saber. I literally want to play until my arms fall off. And there is a really easy way to add custom songs in! This is a must-have VR game.
