ForeVR Suck It! VR

A really awesome start! No tutorial needed really, easy enough to just drop right in. Cute art style, fun music, basic but entertaining game play. It's all here. This is one to watch for sure! And I've only played one match so far. A few cons: Jetpack usage is a bit nauseating for me personally, ymmv. Menu rapidly follows your head turning. I'd much rather menus have the option to be fixed in world. And of course I have to mention, there's only one game mode and one stage to play on for now.

VR" is a garbage tier tech demo that the developer couldn't even be bothered finishing, but he had all the time in the world to build a toxic cash shop and working financial transaction processing back end into the "game". Whenever a developer can't actually make a game so needs to use Early Access, and yet do all this work on cash harvesting, you know they deliberately set out to scam gamers. What do you do in the game? This pointless tech demo has you running around a (probably asset flipped) series of garbage low poly environments with a vaccuum cleaner. That's it. They want your money for this incomplete trash. The developers abandoned this ' ago. It will never be completed. This unfinished game is just polluting Steam and making it harder for gamers to find genuinely, completely made games. Despite not being able to finish the game, the developers apparently had all the time in the world to build that fully functional cash shop, and financial transaction back-end system into the game. That shows the developers primary goal was just to set out to gouge cash from Steam gamers just like mobile devs do with mobile peasants. I'm not sure if this is an asset flip, but it's one of those cases where the assets just look much better than the rest of the quality of the game... a glaring inconsistency. There's no evidence, but as always, the biggest problem with asset flips besides the plagiarism is the deplorably low quality of the other aspects of the game, and even if the game assets are genuinely created for the game, the quality of the rest of the game is indistinguishable from that of asset flips. It's VR exclusive, and that shows the developer failed to understand the most basic axiom of VR game design... if the only cool thing about your product is VR support, your product is not cool. Now on to pricing and value for gamers. This game is infested with mobile app store like microtransactions. This is a consumer hostile model that we don't need to see on PC. It's deceptively priced to gouge gamers, and that's a reason in itself to avoid this. In terms of public reception, this failed. There's over 130 million unique gamers visiting Steam every month. SteamDB showed the game peaked at [b]only 5 concurrent players[/b]... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Since free games don't contribute to your game collector badge and other profile stuff, is this a worthwhile addition to your Steam library? Nope. There's no up front cost here, but I still feel like I got ripped off, and I didn't even spend any money. That's how bad this is.
