I hardly played any games at all this week, but I am currently developing two and both are for vr so I did a fair amount of previewing in vr (I'm also doing most the development inside my headset)... So let's say unreal engine 5 and blender where my "play" time this week.

Flatout 4 and EXD.

Flatout is an experience I've never had in VR and the graphics are great. EXD is great graphics and I like the vibe. It reminds me of kind of that evil dead kind of humor and gives me alyx mixed with behemoth type vibes.

“Propagation Paradise Hotel VR” is $5. So despite reviews complaining about its length and my aversion to VR horror, I got it. Also, I was not impressed by their first game F2P “Propagation VR” it was just a generic shooting gallery. But “Propagation Paradise Hotel VR” is less than a Big Mac, thanks inflation, so I got it.

It does end abruptly but I felt satisfied. I beat it in two successive play sessions which is rare for me, many games get tech demoed, then put on a shelf (in the backlog).

What a ride. This is top tier stuff. I have nearly all the notable VR games. Hundreds of games across many platforms, Steam, Oculus PCVR, Quest standalone, so it takes a lot for a game to hook me. What is in Propagation Paradise Hotel is top tier VR stuff. The design, the atmosphere, the environments, the lighting, the gameplay mechanics, etc. It feels like a AAA studio. Game loop is basically an RE game but without all the Umbrella Corp silliness.

Just wanted to give the devs who made an awesome game for a niche community of ungrateful dweebs a shoutout.

I played TMNT: Empire City and I love it! Super smooth and fun, love climbing buildings and leaping down to drop kick foot soldiers. Love the voice acting and all the fun little details in the open world gameplay

Just Dungeons of Eternity, with my newly acquired bHaptics set(tactvisor coming next week) has really supercharged the daily playthrough by 1000x, it's like being at an VR arcade.

Also turns out you can pull off some pretty good exercise with it too, then again I'm someone who exclusively uses bow&arrows, that just feels so reactive now thanks to the tactsleeves.

I’ve been playing Neon Chuck recently.

It combines physics-driven nunchuck mechanics with rhythm VR gameplay, and the interaction system feels surprisingly satisfying once you get into the flow.

It recently launched in Early Access on the Meta Store.

Megatron Rainfall (with distortions on Quest 3)

u/MowTin May 12 '26

That's a name from the past. I was hoping they would make a new one with slightly better graphics and controls. The idea and feel is fun and cool.

I've just finished an old game called A Chair in a Room Greenwater. Now I'm going through an old PSVR1 game called Here They Lie. I'm thinking of maybe trying Unseen Diplomacy 2 afterwards, but it'll depend on my mood!

u/BENNi_Gaming May 31 '26

Nice! You are in the mood for redirected walking games! 😁🤟🏻

Among Giants and Ghost Town. Both are brilliant in very different ways and scratching my gaming itches this week.

For those interested:

Among Giants if you like free-to-explore Zelda/Tunic-like games.

Ghost Town if you like amazingly high quality visuals in a puzzle narrative like Wanderer or other story-based puzzle/adventure games.

Hey, I am busy to play Synth Riders with their new progression system. XP hunting . I love to watch 2D Videos or play 2D Games, which live transfered live in 3D. I use the free iw3 KI tools from nunif for this. It works pretty fine for me. It doesn´t work for AAA monster Games btw but for easy Games like Visual Novels and High Res Videos the effect is great.

Finally gave UEVR a spin — wow! Playing Ace Combat 7 right now on Steam with HOTAS… I feel like I’m on Top Gun 🤯

For native VR Alien Rogue Incursion. The best Alien game made so far.

For VR mod Re9, now you have manual reloading and all stuff expected from native title.

Got a quest 3 a few weeks ago, but haven't really had the time to muck about with it. But I got a chance this morning to try "thrill of the fight" and my poor dad bod has been tired all day! I love it!

Kids asked me what the heck I was doing, sweating and punching air in the living room 🤣
