Comment on VR still makes 40-70% of players want to throw up, and that's a huge problem for the companies behind it

Honestly even the very best VR-only games are only interesting because they are in VR.

Half-Life: Alyx is IMO still the best of those and it can be played outside of VR thanks to mods… But in that case it’s a curiosity, not an actual good traditional game.

HLA in VR is incredible though and I wish there were more games like it.

When i look at vr titles, i still feel like i'm buying a tech demo, not a game

  Alyx absolutely broke that mould for me. it started off good but built up to incredible as it progressed. I just wish more developers would do similarly.

    Alyx was indeed great. Also i learned there that i don't only get sick in vr, i'm also really scared for some reason

    Yeah alyx’s horror areas were an experience, I’m glad it didn’t have a ravenholm level

I don’t have problems with VR. I sold my Quest 2 cos there are not games like Alex, which I enjoyed a lot, and that’s a pity. I see it going the way of 3D.
