Arcane

The game is quite literally so glitchy that it is nearly unplayable. In my experience it has a tendency to blind you for 5+ seconds every 30 or so seconds. If it wasn't for this little 'feature', i think the game would've been fun to play

This is the Space Invaders of the VR era. You attack a bunch of bad guys who shoot at you, and that's it. The weapons are terrific. The lightening katana's line of death is a different kind of satisfying from when your rocket gauntlet blows up one demon on the way out and another on the way back. They're both completely different from the euophoria you feel when the bowmerangs actually manage to hit something. There seems to be intense nostalgia for the days when games were simpler. Lots of things try to satisfy it by making an 8-bit blocky game with rules and settings and edgy mechanics. Arcane does the reverse, using capable models and cutting edge tech and following the spirit of that simpler time. Ten years from now, VR games will be have long, intricate plots and interfaces we haven't dreamed of yet. They'll be great, but sometimes you'll sigh and wonder why they can't make something simple like this.
