Reaping Rewards, hikayeye dahil olmak için hareket kontrol cihazlarını kullanarak duygusal seçimler yapacağınız etkileşimli bir VR kısa anlatımıdır (yaklaşık süre 6-8 dakika).

Reaping Rewards is an interactive VR short narrative where you will make emotional choices using motion controllers to engage with the story (approximate duration 6-8 min). It worked on my HTC Vive, Quest 3 via Steam Link, and Index system, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok. There are good and bad ending in this experience. Try it, you might like it.

Although it is short, it is a good VR Experience

The message and emotions it gets across are really powerful. However... I am quite disappointed it is so short... It could be so much more if they added more to the story rahter than just visiting the 3 people

[h1] Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers. Spoiler-free Review [/h1] This is a ~6 minute VR mostly cinematic experience. You do have some interactions, but they are minimal. The interactions are the choices you'll be making in the story. I don't want to give out any spoilers, but needless to say you'll be making some touch choices. If you make the right choice(s) you'll be rewarded with an extra scene. Unfortunately, there is an ubrupt ending otherwise so it doesn't really feel like a choice. This should have been a better experience, but somehow it didn't reach its mark. It could be the very paltry dialogue or how you're basically doing the same thing three times. It's difficult to have any emotional impact under those circumstances. The graphics are decent and you can tell a lot of work went into this. Just wish it had been better directed and maybe better written as well. Rate 6/10.

While the experience is short, I am happy that I played this! I found it rather unique and was struck emotionally. Seeing death in VR is much more powerful than on flat screen. Especially when you are the one helping with the killing. Not to say that this is a violent game where you murder people! You play as a reaper helping people move on. I'm happy that there are two endings. Not much choice but the fact that there is at least one definitely helps.
