TLDR: It's very very good, the controls are smooth, the gameplay is engaging and somewhat challenging and the story is passable for a new IP, one of the best VR games I've played to date very close to the quality I found in Alyx. Honestly outstanding work from Insomniac as always, the world is very open and I was never forced into doing an activity which I didn't want to do. At first dismantling and replacing weapons felt off but it kept the game exciting and kept me on my toes which I found very fun. Many of the upgrades are function rather than stat boost which constantly kept me wanting to play more and more to develop my character further to become more adaptable increased my overall survivability in many different scenarios. The design of the game really shows off Insomniac's DNA and makes the world feel believable while still being a fantasy world at the same time. For me at least this kept areas feeling fresh and constantly thinking back to how unique R&C's world and asset design was. Subjectively the game's story works and that's all it has to do. There are a few cutscenes like instances where the player is forced to watch the world around them however these never felt as restricting as some games do. During most of the dialogue sequences, I felt like the characters were really talking to me which added a layer of immersion akin to my experience within Half-Life Alyx's own dialogue sequences. As great as the game looks and plays the optimisation isn't amazing. However, there are many settings to tweak and change to help it run smoother on older hardware. I'm blown away by Stormland and how good a AAA VR Experience can be. I'm looking forward to a sequel to Stormland and other developers to also make the jump in investing in big-budget VR games.

Another late Oculus exclusive - another unfinished scam project. Fun well-thought travel and movement mechanics. And... nothing else. Everything else was just rushed and story abruptly ends, consistent quick weapon swapping is not possible, you never know if you disassemble a weapon or grab a weapon, or start climbing, if you do it too quickly. Absolutely no content. They didn't even finish voicing it!

Before buying this game, you have to take one simple thing to consideration. What do you expect from it. If you looked through all the reviews, then you know what re you buying. Though it has a good lore and great premise, it is not a story drivven shooter, but kind of a loot shooter in some way. Game tricks you fisrt 4 hours making you beleave that you are playing a great story and varried shooter. After first 4 hours you take a bitter pile, thats all of the story. Everything that was before is just a tutorial in game mechanics. Story ends just when things get very and very interesting and for the next 7-10 hours after doesnt develop at all. Game turns it self in total different play stile. In each real time 7 days the world resets making you leveling up from the start accelerating the difficulty and changing the levels around you. So your primary objective is the same over and over and over and over and over time. Circle after the circle. Though gameplay is just a blast, but if you came here for story, pass it by. You wont get anything here after 4 hours tutorial. It is basicaly a grind and leveling up your character type of gameplay and collecting the pieces of lore. For me it was a missed opportunity, but still, you cant deny an absolut blast in VR gameplay achivement
