Hellsplit: Arena

At the time, this game was unique, I used to respect the work put into a game like this. I quit VR for awhile and recently saw a post made by the developers about a new game release. That's when I saw they were using an AI generated cover art, in my personal opinion, this genuinely lazy and not a good sign of "a foundation for what comes next," they say. On the Hellsplit: Labyrinth store page, I've looked around at a few images and had many concerns. First concern is the amount of color they use, for a "dark fantasy world" I would expect it to actually be dark, not full of giant robots, glowing purple and blue crystals, bright purple sorcerers and an overly bright atmosphere. This is nowhere near what Hellsplit: Arena was like and it is disappointing to see how the future of development is going. I have also seen that Hellsplit: Arena seems to rely more on mod support more than the actual game itself, I believe it will be no different for Hellsplit: Labyrinth. Sorry but not sorry, this is not looking bright for the future of Hellsplit.

- Use of AI slop as "placeholders" but they are proudly admiting of using ai + Weird gooner bait for children.

over a year later and the quest version is still ahead the game hasn't been touched in over a year the game itself isn't worth your money, get Blade & Sorcery

BUY BLADE AND SORCERY INSTEAD IF YOU WANT ANYTHING LIKE THIS. This used to be great, then they entirely gave up on creating games and started using generative ai on absolutely everything. Coding included. As if ai trash hasn't been bad enough, apparently it's time to bait people into products they didn't spend any effort/work into and have ai companies make all of "their" content at this point. Entirely only worth looking at if you're seeking to retract all support. As I am doing at this moment. it's really genuinely sad because this was one of the first VR games I had played years ago in 2019 back when they cared to actually work on games. Can't believe still that they completely gave up on everything they ever made 0/10

terrible weapon handling, crashes frequently enough to warrant a fix, abandoned by devs on the pc version the only thing this game has over other similar vr fighting games is the gore, that's it

Having swords do no damage to armored enemies makes me never want to play this game
