Cave Digger VR

Not worth the price, half the BASE GAME content is locked behind a paywall that is x4 more than the product is worth. It keeps telling me to get the DLC. . . but from what I read it's not even DLC content, it's base game content they put a price tag on. And it isn't even that much content to begin with. Maybe I am missing something cause this game USED to be free. Now on the store page the game cost $20 but it says I own the game and no place to buy just the DLC. . . meaning I think they want me to pay $20 for like 5 tools. And half of the game I have only requires the one tool. This price tag feels last minute and breaks apart the game. Not only don't get the game, but I'd go as far as to recommend shunning the developer for stunts like this. If you are gonna put half the content under "dlc" make sure it doesn't interrupt the main games content or make the DLC needed for the base game. And NEVER NEVER EVER punish early adopters by making them pay more for less. If you regret your original pricing model, that's too bad, you still have to honor those who claimed it when it was that way! After something is claimed/purchased, that's their property under contract law. Which means taking it away is legally considered petty theft.

Could have been a must have VR game when it first came out. However the developers showed how little they cared with forced in game purchases, in order to ever progress in the game.

I can get only one ending. It says that I need dlc, but there isnt it enywhere

Вот настоящий и свежий отзыв об этой игре, я пускал слюни на тех которые забрали игру бесплатно давным давно, а у этих людей даже vr нету. А что про игру? ИГРА НЕ ДОБРОЖЕЛАТЕЛЬНА К НОВИЧКАМ, вот так бы сказал о ней, и я это не говорю про "сложность", игра будет буквально скучна новому игроку vr, для него это будет какой то недоделанный дешевый проект, даже проектом он его не назовет, новичку нужно играть в нормальные vr игры, а не в это. А для более менее освоенных, даже не освоенных, просто когда в vr ты себя как рыба чувствуешь, это ощущение и в правду ощущается после 400-500 часов игры, в vr играх ты больше не замечаешь косяков, тебе просто приятно играть в vr, и будет нормальным играть во то что стыдно другим. Ну ладно про сложность я обманул, а что тогда там сложного? Игра с самого начала игры накидывает многими финтиплюшками и возможностями, это может немного (много) запутать. Ибо реально, после 10 минут активной игры у вас будет: кирка, пила, перфоратор, ведро, свечка, динамит, и x-ray камера, что? Мало? Это вообще не мало, игровая зона это маленький дряхленький лифт метр на метр, вам дается где то минута на то чтобы использовать все инструменты по назначению, повесить все предметы на место ибо они будут мешать (хотя всё равно вам будут мешать предметы под ногами которые нельзя повесить на крючок), а потом ещё успеть все камни собрать и закинуть в сральник в центре, + можете потратить время на то что иногда можно застрять в текстурках, телепорт не особо помогает в этом. Может ещё показаться то что это мало, но поверьте, когда у вас лимит времени, и много предметов, они вам будут ♥♥♥♥ мешать, вот правда, эти не нужные предметы нельзя никуда деть, например ключи, они у тебя на полу лифта так и будут хранится, ну хотя хз может в игре можно прокачать какой то склад. Но всё же, это только будущая проблема, ибо в начале, ты просто не поймешь для чего все приспособления, а вы знаете как о них узнаете? Единственный раз перед покупкой предмета на англ языке без субтитров высирает "туториал" старенькое радио, и знаете что, в первые я даже на это не обратил внимания, а что на счет других, английский не для всех дан. И это я всё говорю со стажом игры 2 часа, за эти 2 часа я понял что игра вообще не хочет видеть новичков, она срать на них хотела. Если вы проф в области vr, и если не боитесь играть в дешевые проекты с наивной графикой, и если вы будете готовы принять игру которая вас с самого начала нагнет раком, то пожалуйста, начните играть в эту игру пожалуйста, она и в правду достойна вашего внимания, она прикольная. Я ещё хотел рассказать что в игре прикольного, но у меня стаж 2 часа, поэтому мало что о игре знаю.

this game has a ton of content, upgrades and mines but 70% of it is inaccessible because of programming errors

Update (3/2/2022): Decides to give it a chance and keep going. Noticed alot of issues in this game lately. Suggestion(s): Need to update a lot of things including options where the player is standing on a spot or can walk around. Need to update the uhhh treasure chest pet, they were oblivious and wouldn't see any crystals/gems/artifacts laying on the floor until i pick one of them up and suddenly it gobbles all of it up. Need to improve the issues with explosions/Dynamite sticks. Every time i try to pick up the box/crate, i immediately ends up picking ONE of the sticks, instead of ACTUAL box itself. Plus it WILL not stay on train. once the train moves, it just yeets itself out into the abyss and commits... Dynamite-icide? Definitely need an option to remove the "gauntlet" glove off. That and i actually missed the chance to grab the modern, newish upgrade gloves when it was on market. Don't know if it'll cycle back and pop up again. (Just upgraded the train lvl 1 and then the saloon lvl 1.) Need to improve the actual player's playspace. Every time i shifts my weight, i ends up getting stuck inside treasure chest pet's model until i had to move around to free myself. that also includes; stones/rock in way, abandoned pallets laying around, and so forth And DEFINITELY need to update the actual inventory belt issues. Otherwise it's starting to feel like it's Deep Rock Galactic but in VR with a Train. and an apparently living treasure chest that follows you around. spent 45 minutes on this, since it was on sale and it was like 2 bucks. I needed a game to troubleshoot my VR setup, i really didn't cared what kind but i saw this and was like "why not, it might be a very short game, probably what i needed" and gave it a shot while troubleshooting my VR issues. (not game's fault, BTW!! just my hardware setup) Immediately got launched into middle of it. The bulb is ridiculously bright in the elevator. Had to look away, only to realize there was some kind of instruction and eventually i realized i needed to pick the pickaxe up. Ends up trying my best to mine around when I can. With valve index controllers, yeah I immediately knew it was for Oculus/Vive controllers. Really do not want to grip my index controllers in order to grip on any tools. I have ridiculously strong grips but i seriously don't want to break my controllers. Tried to look around for anything like an button or whatever that have "settings/options" so i can adjust the settings. To my disappointment, there was nowhere to see it. (either that or i did not see it clearly when it could be right in front of me) Definitely not Deaf friendly. (Deaf gamer here btw) so i had no idea what was going on. I assumed the P.A. or radio or whatever is just talking above but i absolutely have zero idea what it's saying due of no subtitles/captions. Pros: short and pretty good game for 2 bucks. Cons: -Is not compatiable with index controllers. need strong arms and hands to keep an consistent grip. -Terrible controller setup/layout. Had to use "A" button to grip each tool to get around, but each time i need to move around (i'm in stand-around mode in VR layout) i had to DROP the pickaxe constantly so i use joysticks to get around. (i'm aware there's belt around my waist but they are in the way very often) -No subtitles to understand what's going on. -Literally launched me into middle of it without any tutorial or get any understanding of how things work at first. Really way to go to make myself feel alone in middle of ghost town. I explored and wandered around a bit but there seems to be limited to certain objectives. Haven't checked the train yet. Will update this whenever i can.

if you like slaving a way for hours at a time constantly grinding then you my friend will enjoy this game

Pretty chill mineing game.

A few awkward discomforts hold this back. Mining in VR is fun, but after they are mined the minerals float slowly directly towards your face and then drop to the floor. You can grab them midair, but you risk smacking the headset, and if you don't grab them the 3D model moves right into your vision which SUCKS! Horrible choice to have that visual impairment in the core part of the game. So I tried moving out of the way, but there is ONLY teleport move no smooth move, not even a settings menu to adjust anything at all.... so... this had potential but needed polish, definitely feeling like a rough 2016 VR game not 2020.

I'm suprised this game has such negitive reviews. Sure, there's a lot of grinding, it's its a game about mining in an elevator shaft after all.
