PlayStation VR games have been hit or miss with me. I loved Arkham and Job Simulator--and Thumper was a good time while it lasted. Although I own Starblood Arena, I cannot play longer than 15 minutes without wanting to vomit. I was super excited about Robinson, but was struck with the sensation that I had just gorged myself at an all you can eat burrito buffet and had to lie down. So, I hung up the old helmet until Farpoint arrived on my doorstep yesterday. Upon unpacking the box, I was surprised that there was a weight to the gun controller. It doesn't feel cheap like I thought it would. I was thinking from images that I would have to fit my motion controller into a bracket, but the piece is already attached.
Upon firing up the game, I was immediately surprised by the graphical fidelity. Were my expectations low? Maybe. But then the actors started talking ... and it they are good. The facial capture is also nicely rendered. After a brief stint in space and a crash landing, I started to explore the rocky canyons. And then the gunplay started. Leaning into my rifle scope put a devilish grin on my face. How does this work so well?! Space spiders explode in gloppy fragments and the shotgun and rifle I have unlocked so far feel weighty and satisfying. Want to change your gun? Just throw the weapon over your shoulder. And the best thing for me? No motion sickness at 2 hours! I have to say, I am impressed.
The one thing I did notice was that calibration on my rifle was a bit off from where my hands were but I think in my excitement to start I calibrated the unit wrong. It also has you select your height. Since I am 5'6 and short, I felt like a Jawa in-game when I looked down at my feet. So I plan on taking more time to calibrate during my next play.
If you are a fan of Starship Troopers and VR, this is the first one that has come along in some time that truly has gotten me excited again for the future of VR possibilities.
