Gambit!

[h1]Very Underrated VR Shooter - Fun Gunplay and lots of collectables - However, its short/unfinished[/h1] I avoided this game for quite some time seeing the mostly negative reviews on Steam. This is yet another game that was completely underrated for what it is. I very much enjoyed my playthrough of the game. The game definitely does not deserve the negative reviews it has gotten. Yes, there are some technical problems and the game is quite short (less than 4 hours), but I had a blast for what the game offered. [b]What does this game play like?[/b] The game plays like if you took TMNT and mixed it with the shooting and linearity of Call of Duty along with the style of Borderlands and a hint of Payday. Put it into VR and you have GAMBIT! The game is very arcady with waves of enemies in each section you progress into. It feels like a game you would play in an arcade, pumping quarters into as you progress the game. [b]Voice Acting[/b] The voice acting is pretty good, although, I am not sure what the story was about as I really did not listen to it. But, the quality of the voice acting was pretty cool. It was like listening to a cartoon for adults. Something you would see on Adult Swim or something. There were some funny lines that did have me chuckle a bit. [b]Gunplay[/b] The gun play is fast and arcady. There is manual reloading, but its handled loosely as you can slap the pistols to your waist to reload them. There is a fairly good selection of weapons, however, you have to unlock them first by playing through the campaign. You also have to collect money in order to afford them. [b]Sound Effects[/b] One thing that is largely underrated in this game that makes this game stand out is the sound effects. XREAL has talent in this field. With their other games like Zero Caliber, they do not skimp out on sound effect quality. The guns, reverb effects, and even footsteps sound great here. [b]Multiplayer[/b] There are 3 multiplayer modes this game offers. The first is Municiple Mayhem which is a survival mode that has you verse 3 other players. The last player standing is the winner. Rounds usually last under 30 seconds in this mode. If there are no players online, you verse bots. Then you have traditional deathmatch and team deathmatch, which is typical. Nothing really stands out. The other mode, of course is Coop which allows you to partner up to 3 other players to play through the game's campaign. [b]Graphics[/b] This is where the weaknesses to the game start taking effect. The graphics are nothing great. You can definitely tell this game was originally developed for Quest. Quite unfortunate. I would love to imagine an alternative timeline where devs developed for PCVR primarily and trickle down to Quest. I bet this game would have been better if that happened. [b]Too Short[/b] The game is quite short, no doubt. It took me about 4 hours to complete the game, however, I did take my time and looked around for collectibles. Realistically, someone could complete this game's campaign in less than 2 hours. It seems the devs had 2 other parts planned, but since the game was just review bombed, they gave up. Pretty sad. I think part 1 was fun, would have loved to play part 2 and 3. Maybe someday? Not holding my breath though. [b]Overall[/b] If you find this game on sale, pick it up! This game was a blast to play, in my opinion. If you want an arcady shooter that you can play with a friend or two, this is your game. Definitely give it a try!

Fun but needs improvments

Aucun problème de crash pendant le jeu. Et honnêtement je le trouve pas si mal que ça. Si vous voulez un jeu vraiment claqué au sol regardez du côté de Samurai Slaughter House. Là les graphismes sont pas trop mal. Beaucoup d'options pour configurer le gameplay. Pas mal de secrets a trouver. Des sous titres en Français ce qui devient de plus en plus rare à la sortie. L'option multi que j'ai pas encore testée mais qui devrait me plaire vu que j'aime After The Fall. Après est ce qu'on aura les nouvelles map ? Est ce que les problèmes de tracking seront résolus ? En tous cas moi je lui donne sa chance et je vais le garder.

I decided to edit my review for Gambit from positive to negative for one main reason, but before I say it let me quickly say this game had SO MUCH potential. It could've been the Payday of VR just like how After The Fall was the Left 4 Dead of VR, and Gambit could've thrived. But after a promise of content updates not long after the games release, they never came, instead Xreal decided to abandon this for Zero Caliber 2, and left this game in the dust whilst still marketing it as if it were fully released. I still love Gambit, but I CANNOT recommend it to anyone unless if it somehow gets revived and given attention from the developers again, until then, DON'T BUY THIS GAME.

Honestly the game didn't match my expectations, To me it sounded like borderlands in VR but its not that at all Although the other reviews are criticising it for running bad and that didn't happen on my end.

I Really Like The Game, I Do! But It Doesn't Feel Like A Full Game It "Is" But I Really Needs More Polishing To It. It Really Does.

GAMBIT is QUIRKY and FULL OF ATTITUDE and if you OPEN ITS MOUTH and LOOK CLOSELY you can see a BORDERLANDS-SHAPED IMPRESSION on its TONSILS.
