no, I’ve never done that. I’ve never seen much of a discount so I’ve never had any incentive to

thatKamGuy,

This is a cursed list, but at least 2/3rds eventually lived up to their initial promise!

Oh yeah VR racing is awesome. If you can afford one, I highly recommend getting a steering wheel with haptic feedback. They have motors in the wheels that will make it pull back to center to straighten out, just like a real car does, as well as interface with a lot of the games directly so that the wheel will shake a bit as you are hitting bumps in the road. I have legitimately never been as immersed in VR as I have been with one of these wheels.

The Logitech G920 is the one I have, looks like it’s on a good sale right now on Amazon too.

I’ve been thinking of getting one! I have a force feedback airbus flight stick and it vibrates on take off or when I deploy flaps for approach and landing. Very very cool

FTL is a standard holiday game fore, as well as getting people on a Total Annihilation server. Still super hard and still super awesome

This is crazy, I just woke up and I remembered I drunkenly installed a game yesterday but couldn’t for the life of me remember what the game was. I opened my lemmy app and see this close to the top and remembered it was dying light: the beast. I finished the second one a couple of months ago and wanted to take a small break before diving into the new one, while also letting some more patches be released.

I’m currently playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 too but I’m unsure if it’s for me. I see why it’s so loved but I’m not at all good with tight timing stuff and I feel the exploration is a bit lackluster.

I wanted to like it but I hate the parrying mechanic so much.

PlantJam,

The parrying/timing mechanic is what stopped me from buying it, too. I’ve learned I’m too particular about games to buy them on release.

schmups,

Wild because I couldn’t enjoy the game without it.

I’m glad that feature’s int here for you, in that case.

thermal_shock,

Same. Looks good, but not for me. Nephew loves it.

Been playing absolum with my buddy, as well as playing Tainted Grail since it was on sale. Absolum is an incredible co-op game, and tainted grail surprised me with how much I’ve enjoyed it. Really happy with them both all around.

Oh yeah I loved OneShot, good to see others playing it

I also did all the runs and all the achievements, so I don’t have much to do anymore

I played world machine edition so I might have missed out on the full experience, but I think WME did a fairly good job at emulating everything

I’m glad i gave it a shot, and managed to stay blind. Honestly really loved it (so much so it went on my favorite games list). I honestly see myself replaying this yearly.

It feels a bit empty after beating everything from all the runs to the achievements. I miss it already, which definitely means the game made the right kind of impact on me. I conflictingly want more, but don’t want the experience to be soured by more.

World Machine Edition was also how i played. I think the only thing you’re really missing out on (as far as i know) is the original map designs and Niko being able to die if you close the game, which honestly, is a welcome change even if i think the original idea was better. I know there’s times where i need to walk away suddenly

I played this game years after its release, luckily without spoilers, but I had heard a LOT about it and how great it was.

It’s one of the very few instances of a game living up to its hype. Loved every second of it! The humour is always on point, gameplay is unique, soundtrack is on fire, and the story’s not bad either. I only had minor grievances with it, but nothing that made it drop below a 9/10 for me.

VR is a gamechanger for everything. It literally changes the games.

If you have a gyroscopic controller, you can use it like a steering wheel too!

For me any faster movement is sadly an instant mostion sickness simulation. How did you get rid of that?

PerogiBoi,
@PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca avatar

Fast motion where it’s in my peripheral vision as well as primary field of view gives me nausea even with pretty strong VR legs.

Sometimes games (and headsets) will have a comfort mode which adds a vignette around the peripheral vision when there’s high movement. That usually helps lower motion sickness.

polle,

Thanks for the explanation. What headsets would you recommend that have that featureset?

PerogiBoi,
@PerogiBoi@lemmy.ca avatar

I know the Meta Quest 3 and 3s have this feature built in. For PCVR with other headsets, often games have this feature built in. Usually it’s called “comfort mode” or something similar. It’s a standard in VR UX.

I’m playing lost records bloom and rage, and it’s a lot of fun, I love the stand by me vibe and it’s really well put out.

BigBenis, do games w Do you preorder games?
@BigBenis@lemmy.world avatar

I never pre-order. I broke that rule exactly once and pre-ordered No Man’s Sky, boy did they make a fool out of me. Never again.

There are plenty of games I play that are on early access, the qualifier is whether the game is in a playable state and is fun to play (by account of online reviews or friend’s recommendations).

oopsgodisdeadmybad,

Exactly this. If it’s already fun, and especially if the early access price is good, then buying a somewhat janky game that will get better seems fine.

thetrekkersparky, do games w Do you preorder games?

Nope. Trust has been broken too many times. I don’t even buy anything anywhere near release anymore. I won’t buy anything anymore unless it’s either an indie game or its on sale and even then I deep dive the reviews and make sure I’m not wasting my money.

lazycouchpotato, do games w Do you preorder games?
@lazycouchpotato@lemmy.world avatar

I don’t think I’ve ever pre-ordered a game. I’ve always been a patient gamer.

The only game I can recall purchasing during early access was Vampire Survivors. It was cheap as hell at $3 and was due to launch in about a week or so. There wasn’t a downside to getting it for me.
