Last weekend, one Firewatch player was having a monetary dilemma. They’d beaten the game. They liked the game, which tasks players with hiking in the Wyoming wilderness. But they also felt that spending $18 for a 2-3 hour experience might be asking for too much.
Sometimes you want to explore wild environments while exploring mysteries, escaping flesh eating 8monsters, or even be the monster yourself.

From UploadVR: "Perhaps one of the most demanded VR mods out there, Firewatch VR, is now complete.
Developer Raicuparta recently moved their mod, named Two Forks VR, to a 1.0 release. This update doesn’t actually add much to the mod over the past release, but the developer says the mod is now in “maintenance mode”, essentially meaning it will just be updated to keep working with any possible future updates to Firewatch itself.
Raicuparta previously made an excellent VR mod for Outer Wilds, and now Two Forks VR features a lot of advanced VR mod features like snap turning and more. If you want to try the mod for yourself you’ll need to subscribe to Raicuparta’s Patreon campaign."
Really cool. Something the main developers should have considered when VR was really getting hot. Maybe next round with new headsets coming.
The more interesting thing is that Modders are, in a way, proving what Sony wants to do with some VR games being hybrids besides the ground up developed games. Make the necessary tweaks and modifications and boom. VR game.
Games like RE7, Borderlands, Skyrim, Doom, Dirt Rally, etc have made the case. Some very close like Hitman 3. It just needed more tweaking. Just need more of the best and at a higher quality. Developers win. Gamers win either way in or out of VR.
I haven't played yet, but I bought this game already and I'm going to start it up as soon as I'm done with the original witcher.
From all the reviews and talk I've read and heard, I doubt I'll regret my purchase.
This just shows how easily abusive steam refund is if you can complete (an albeit short game) and still claim a refund.
You know the length before you buy because you can easily check a review which will point it out for a point of concern. If the price is too expecnsive for the content to you, buy it on a sale.
Good response from the dev
Dang.. Jane is a badass.
That was beautiful.
I didn't know these developers had to work is such a confined environment. This article really opens your eyes to how some Indie developers live.
So it's a really 14 day rental with an 18 dollar security charge? Sounds like a good deal to me.
