4/5

Basically Sword Art Online

Amazing game, parrys and strikes feel very smooth, except for the occasional missed blocked that Im pretty sure I had? Anyways all combat is very good, blocking and countering is very well done even accompanied with crit areas and even a boss fight every now and again, which are very hard and make the quests always repeatable. Not only are the areas diverse, the weapons are to, basically unlocking new blades every time I play. The game gives of a hard SAO vibe, and is very well done, I heavily recommend to any sword enthusiasts

Top notch game with one drawback

Pros: really fun multiplayer with intuitive and engaging combat! A lot of replay-ability and a cool upgrade system. There is A LOT going for this game. Cons: very limited in terms of maps and enemies. Moving from area to area is very segmented because you’re just teleporting from room to room. One thing that would turn this into the best roguelike and potentially top 3 on Oculus is to add actual dungeons to multiplayer. Shopkeepers, loot, and enemies randomized in a dungeon would be pop off. At the end of the day, I recommend this game but I think there is a lot of room for improvement. I will continue playing and if I ever get bored, game changing updates would absolutely bring me back.

Really neat game. Worth the price.

The developers really crafted something cool here. Love the concept of advancing through levels as rounds like a arcade game. And being able to play COOP with random people or friends is just plain fun. The weapons are all unique and each one has its perks and down sides. CROSSPLAY is a HUUUGE plus. More games need this. Owning HTC VIVE and Oculus Quest i can play with friends. I really hope the developers dont stop making this game better. Oh my gosh could this thing be like the best game ever. Dont kill this baby, I hope it matures and grows old! The game does have some issues like the already mentioned audio cutting in and out randomly, sometimes you lose ability to pick up items, some crashes which even actually shut down the oculus itself. And the graphics are blurry at any distance and really pixelated but closer up things look well. Hope the developers can nail these issues down. Otherwise this would be a 5/5 game.

Rough around the edges but fun.

The collision contact of weapons is something that needs to be worked on a bit more. When in a battle you sword often gets caught up a bit so it’s kinda of a learning curve to fight in the way the game is made. And another issue I have is that the vest is HUGE and seems more in the way than anything. All that being said you get an amazing sword combat experience especially when it’s multiplayer! The price point seems fair enough due to the vast amount of content stored in this game.

PLEEEASE FIX THE DASH SYSTEM

Every other aspect of this game is amazing! I am absolutely sick and tired of feeling like I'm giving a blowjob anythime I have to forward though! On top of that it only seems to actually work about half the time. Please there are two joysticks. For christ sake just make one of them for dashing and one for movement. Hell even just the normal movement stick with the dash trigger at the same time. Literally ANYTHING asides from what it is now
