Grimlord

Absolutely fantastic game! It has really good replay potential and the bosses are both unique and challenging. Good: -High quality models and voice acting -Tons of bosses with cool themes and arenas -Combat works really well with having slash, pierce, blunt, lightning, fire etc types actually mattering. Aiming for vitals in between armor, and using blunt weapons to break armor feels awesome -Melee combat feels good, but not perfect. (This will be changing with the upcoming combat rework) -Good total playtime for a single playthrough. Especially if you take the time to explore. -Physical potion drinking is always a plus for me and it really makes you feel like it is an estus flask -Insanely good value for $30. You would expect this game to cost more given the amount of content Bad: -Drawing the magic sigils can be scuffed on a few spells (This will be changing with the upcoming combat rework) -Perk tree is boring (This will be changing with the upcoming combat rework)

Grimlord is a Fantastic and Must have game for VR. The visuals are nice, the combat is fun, enemies with different kinds of weapons fight in unique ways making you change the way you fight, it's genuinely a blast and easily one of my top 5 favorite VR games. it's an amazing work out too, I just wish I had room to do standing VR I CANT WAIT to see what else the dev has stored, be it more free content or paid DLC, or even a sequel! There are some problems tho: -this is one of those VR games that run better if it's played Wirelessly or Wired in the Meta Quest Runtime. If it runs wired with Steam Runtime it is nearly unplayable and visually blurry. This is a problem they're aware of and I'm sure they're working on it, to go with that, "launch in quest mode" doesn't work, it claims I don't have a quest when I pick it. -A major problem I have with the game is that traveling the areas are insanely fun and engaging but the bosses are very not fun damage sponges. Often times you can find multiple ways to fight the various enemies in the game and it makes the game so fun and worth redoing the levels over and over, but the bosses Deal so much damage and take so little damage that after you figure out the pattern of attack you spend actually 15 minutes just waiting and widdling their health down to the point that after the Hollow One boss fight I genuinely dread the next boss. Besides maybe halving their health maybe making bosses a multi stage fight where they switch patterns every 1/2 or 1/3 of their health goes down to make it less of a slog is the only suggestion I have. While this is the biggest problem this game has the general progression is so fun in between boss fights I can forgive it entirely. -the levels could use a bit more in them, I'm not saying add more secrets or items, it does SUPER well felling like a Souls game even in how it has it's hidden secrets so I don't think it needs more of them, I just think some parts are too empty and need more visual noise to help fill parts of the world to make it look more lived in. I do recognize this might be a performance issue so the less clutter the better it runs, so I'm not holding this against them, as it's understandable and passable as is. -I also feel the swords are rotated at an odd angle in the hand but it might just be me and it's not really a problem, only feeling weird if I focus on it in my hand and looking at it. I just wish VR games in general gave you options to change how weapons are held
