Nostos - VR Gameplay Valve Index
26Why do this? Why release like this? This is one of the worst games I've taken a look at in a long while.
Locomotion issues abound! You're moving on ice. Whenever you let go of the trackpad or the stick you continue moving in that direction for another second. Direction of travel appears to be some system that tries to guess the way your facing based on your hand and head position instead of just picking either your hand or head to follow. There are no locomotion options. There are no comfort options.
The IK is the worst I've ever seen in any game.
The UI was pretty bad. Unintuitive and buggy. Attempting to use the menu system while moving caused the menu to distort.
Combat allowed waggle to win. There's half baked stamina system that somewhat limits this by preventing you from moving when your stamina runs out. This is not the right way to handle either of these features.
There is no save system that I found for my survival world. When you leave the world, it and all your character progress are lost.
This is compounded by other bugs such as the server desync that we encountered where I couldn't interact with anything in the world until I exited the instance and entered a new world which obviously did not save my previous progress. There was also no notice that I was desynced or bugged out other than the fact that nothing was visible in the world and I couldn't interact with objects in the world.
The voice acting was pretty bad. Occasionally doubling up on the voice lines with one slightly delayed so you can't understand either... The NPC followers, and your own, voice was just plain annoying. Sound effects were meh at best. The music was kind of ok.
I frequently couldn't attack enemies. I would swing through them and nothing would happen. I assume the enemy was in a different position on the server than what I saw on my client. This is incredibly frustrating.
There are too many issues with this game to accurately list them all. This game was released years before it should have been released. Do not buy this game. If it were free, it would be a waste of time and money to download in its current state. Please vote with your wallet and send a message that we wont accept this level of cash grab, half assed, garbage.
Biggest disappointment of a VR game in 2019.
