Pros:
Fun gunplay, juicy melee weapons
Mods mods mods - VRChat fans will love the modded avatars. [strike] become an anime catgirl today! [/strike]
-There's mods that'll let you play with other players, VRChat style. Mods for guns, playermodels, levels, vehicles, codemods that can give you the ability to ragdoll on command, or get gibbed, or use portal guns, or film your own SFM-style scenes. Some people have even modded in gamemodes! Some dudes have modded in BONEWORKS, too, so if you're wondering if you're missing anything, just buy BONELAB and download the mod.
I love the blurring of fantasy and reality stylistic choices Stress Level 0 has done in all of their games - using real actors to communicate to the player, the believable, detailed environments, the inventive ways you can use the environment, the way the game itself describes how its player avatars and rigs work, in the actual world.
Cons:
Mainly just online interactions (through the 3rd party Fusion mod) - to quote mike tyson, a lotta y'all got way too comfortable saying the things you say to people on here without getting sent to the hospital. They really be letting kids use VR headsets, now. Since Fusion isn't moderated by SL0, some folks have tried doxxing people on the platform.
A lot of the modded avs have messed up hands, there's a lot of poorly ripped assets from other games. A lot of great ones, but that's modding for you.
Simplified gun controls. What can I say? H3VR has spoiled me. There's a weird ammo system, and the buttons that could do more interesting gun stuffs are taken up by the menu and jump keys. Something to get used to.
It feels like the story got amputated about halfway through. Storywise, I can see why that was the case, but as a player, it does kind of feel like they said 'you go ahead and make your ending, if you're so effin' smart!' and ended the story there.
Not much of a story - but as a gun game sandbox, it is incredible! It's less Half-Life 2, more Garry's Mod. Get it on sale if you can, but full price, I feel I've got my money's worth.
