Vertigo 2: Into The Aether, the highly anticipated DLC for the VR sci-fi adventure is set for release on 25th April on SteamVR.
“It's a new year and with that comes a fresh batch of indies so here are the very best of 2024 so far. I hope you enjoy this look back. 😊” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
Vertigo 2 promises a big VR shooter campaign with plenty of Half-Life inspiration, but can this solo dev effort match the bet of PSVR 2?
I can kind of understand how the reviewer reached that score after reading their review. A couple of their complaints are regarding aiming and reloading - you can adjust aiming and the ammo location for reloading within the game options if you're having trouble with either. I definitely had to adjust the angle for aiming shortly after I began playing, but now it feels great.
I, however, think the game is awesome. It truly feels like you've gone on an adventure across this strange alien land. The weapon system is great, there's a ton of secrets to find, a large variety of enemies, well done VR physics, great environment interactions, an interesting story, and a fantastic soundtrack. My biggest complaint is that some of the humor is a bit too Rick and Morty-ish for my taste, but I know a lot of people like that type of humor, it's just not my thing.
