It's a fun and humorous adventure with good VR interactivity. You don't need to play the first Vertigo, but the intro will be slightly confusing. Despite being called Vertigo, a more apt name might be Thalassophobia; if you have a fear of being underwater or in water with large creatures like I do, you may want to either skip the game (that would be a shame) or have a friend help you through the terrifying bits (there are only a few). You know, so you can maybe close your eyes or something. I'm just saying. There's some minor replayability in that you can choose different characters with some core abilities, and choose different paths that I believe give you a different boss fight in the middle of the game, but I didn't find that feature compelling enough to do a replay, myself. I may still replay it in the future. Even if you only play it once, it's a good 12-14 hour full single player campaign and worth the money, I'd say. Some have said this is, to VR, sort of the "indie Half-Life Alyx" and I'd say that's fairly accurate. A must-try for anyone picking up VR and wondering what to dive into. As an aside: There are larger VR dev teams that do far less and have publicly complained and made excuses why they can't do more (SLZ, CM Immersive, others)... and then there's Zach Tsiakalis-Brown. This game is one of the reasons I expect more from VR games than ugly visuals, bad optimization, and ragdoll enemies with no AI. Throwing money and raw numbers of amateurish people at a game doesn't make it good. Talent does. Many other games have proven this over the years, and this is one more shining example for the pile.
it is a good gaming experience.. It has Valve references and there is Sosigs 10/10 (Things here and there that i didn't like but peak VR gaming..)
Eh getting softlocked on a rail shooter section where the guns sight does not line up with where the shots go does not give mutch faith in the rest of the game
