Vertigo 1 was so impressive that it was primarily a one-man show, done by a teenager. When He did the remaster, it added a lot of polish.
Vertigo 2 is even more amazing to see, because we Zulobo Productions and Tsiakalis-Brown really up their polish and presentation. Vertigo 2 is an essential VR game.
It's not without it's problems, but it is very deserving to call the half-life series it's major inspiration, as it captures the feel of those games perfectly, with it's own comical tone and presentation that keep it unique. It does push it's overall plot to the point of parodying the half-life plot at times, which is fun and funny, but also does also feel a bit derivative.
My biggest issues have to do with control quirks.
There is no way to adjust the aim smoothing and it is quick "thick," making aiming feel too floaty. I prefer a snappier aim and don't mind some input jitter to have it.
I'm often teleporting when I don't want to because I have a heavy thumb and every VR controller I've ever used has a very sensitive stick-click. I can't think of anything else I'd rather map to the left stick-click that wouldn't also interrupt gameplay. It's something I live with, but it has cost me many lives and took me nearly the whole game to get a feel for. It is a very handy place for the input when you do need teleport, though. So, I don't have an alternative.
The last issue is with weapon selection. The menu selection is read by the lateral movement of your dominant hand, but not rotation. I feel this is counter-intuitive as you don't point at the option but rather swipe to it. I'm not sure the game really explains it well or not; the tutorial menu was gone before I properly read it. It takes some getting used to. I'd prefer it was a pointing action, though, like most VR interfaces.
The graphics are pretty and stylistic and the game runs really well. With a 5800X3D and a 4080, I can run at 150% of the Quest 3's native resolution with everything maxed out except for shadows, which I set to "high," and anti-aliasing, which I turned off. "Very High" shadows causes a lot of stuttering as I move around and the Anti-Aliasing can take up a bit of performance, is kind of blurry, and actually seems to accentuate the stair-stepping because it makes everything warble, even if it smooths it out. The image is much more stable with anti-aliasing off and using resolution scaling to super-sample.
The use of color and lighting is very nice and many scenes look like paintings when you stop to appreciate them.
Gameplay is fun and a bit frantic. Sometimes it's hard to tell if the game wants to be played strategically or as a run-and-gun. The enemies are very aggressive and very accurate shots. You will need to use teleport in fights -- you will not be able to strafe to dodge -- and do your best to constantly move from cover to cover. But sometimes, the "arenas" make it things a bit disorienting and will send enemies from 360 degrees, making it really hard to find safe places to compose yourself, reload, head, and take shots from cover. It becomes a lot to juggle movement, cover, reloading, healing, and timing your shots between enemy reloads.
I've had to cheese some fights because they were just too overwhelming. There is one particular one where you have to wait for a door to open and the game sends a dozen or so enemies at you in an arena that is very hard to navigate without being forced through chose points where you have no cover nor any space to dodge. I quickly found a corner to hide until the door opened, then just lured the enemies over one-by one until they were dead. It was tedious.
Another time, it felt like the only option was to rush through to the unknown and then back-track to kill high-level enemies. This was frantic and I ended up in a room with 4 enemies and a box of grenades. I quickly grabbed a grenade and dropped it at my feet, almost killing myself, but eliminating the enemies. Then I used grenades to kill the high level enemies I rushed past. It was exhilarating, but it was a skin-of-my-teeth kind of thing and I feel like I just got kind of lucky on a combat scenario that could have very easily been a trial-and-error event. That said, it was exciting, and one of the few times the game's franticness really felt fun.
It may be suggested to just run away and try to break their line of sight if things get hot. It's just not every arena allows for a solid retreat. There will be a few times where you just have to push forward and die so you can know what's ahead and approach properly on the reload.
All those critiques aside, they don't detract from Vertigo 2 being an essential VR experience. I only notice these hiccups because they game is so polished and well-paced, otherwise. If this isn't already in your library, it should be.
I'm burned out on arcade & simulator type VR games and wish there were more story centred adventure games with good pacing and interesting mechanics; just feels like the industry is stuck in a monotony of expensive tech demos. I haven't enjoyed a VR game this much since Half-Life Alyx and Boneworks (I was disappointed with Bonelabs and refunded it). I have been on the fence about purchasing this game for a few months, I didn't think one person could make a game this good and my assumption is that people were being overly generous with the reviews because it was made by a single developer...
I really enjoyed Vertigo Remastered and I was blown away by the second game! Both games are a must play for VR players, I don't think you will be disappointed. The developer has put so much passion and love into these games, it has been such a joy to experience this; my only disappointment is that this franchise isn't getting the widespread attention it deserves.
funny selfie phone :p
Easily in the same tier as Alyx
Blend between High on life and Half life: Alyx. Better at being High on life than High on life itself IMO.
Two handed weapons in VR is a terrible idea, HL: Alyx avoids it entirely and Pavlov keeps it to a minimum. The weapons in this game doesnt feel powerful. I spent more time worrying about the jankiness of my weapon than shooting things. The weapons in HL: Alyx/Pavlov feel trustworthy and you don't have to think about too much after you get the hang of it. Performance was also a bit off with weird lag spikes.
I rage quit at the magma boss.
Better than High on life, worse than HL:A. Weak thumbs up.
I like VR, but not the poor quality of most VR games. I often play a VR game for only 1-2 hours before losing interest. Only great titles like Half-Life Alyx and Walking Dead S&S have held my interest. Vertigo 2 has proven to be a great game. It oozes fun and humor. When the Yoda-like character told me to leave or he would F-ing kill me I laughed so hard it literally hurt. Vertigo 2 is a labor of love by a tiny indie studio, but they focused their limited time/budget on what really matters.
this game is amazing. one of the BEST...
Played it on Quest 3S with Steamlink and it's... fine? I don't understand how this can be overwhelmingly positive when games like Bonelab (amazing physics) or Half life Alyx exist. You can't interact with anything and the environments are okay if sort of bland and empty. UI is meh, it's one of those games where you teleport your gun into your hand and it's stuck there.
The physics is meh there is no "weight" to anything if that makes sense.
And the story is fine, after an hour I guess.
I'm writing this review now because I dont think I will ever play it again but if I do and if it miraculously gets good, i'll gladly update my review to positive
This game is amazing, probably one of my favorite VR FPS titles.
Some key points to note:
- My first playthrough lasted me about 8 hours, I didn't try to get through it as soon as I could, but I didn't take my time either.
- Story is very captivating but not afraid to be silly. Vitally, you don't need to play the first game to understand. The important details are told to you within about 30 seconds if you choose to hear the recap at the start of the game.
- Good gunplay, eight mainline guns to choose from, six secret guns.
- The game was challenging but never felt unfair
- There is newgame+ and gameplay modifiers to tinker with
I totally recommend this, it's a very fun and very creative experience.
Best vr game, even one of the best games ive ever played. cant wait for the new dlc
One of the greatest VR games since Alyx.
If you love Alyx and games like Half Life, this is a definite must buy.
This game gave me vertigo
yussssssssss
Just WOW...
Vertigo 1 is like a sketch of a cool thing done in a short time of 1 year.
Vertigo 2 is a whole sculpture, after 7 years of work and creative freedom and polish which came without time constraints.
There are some cool connections to first one, so play both. It is worth it.
If creator has no energy or creative fuel to do another game, then please do some side work to help other projects or something, cuz your creative stuff in this game were great!
I played first one on Viveport infinity, which allows you to play some games after monthly payment. At some point I am going to buy remaster here too, just from respect for the dev.
it has an interesting plot and the style of fantasy and boneworks combined is really awesome. The references from half life and portal are nicely placed. The original weapons are really neat.
Best VR game in a while, great graphics, story, ideas, and gameplay. So glad it wasn't held back by the current VR market!
Huge mistake playing this game as a first PCVR experience. It's just so good - not so many titles can come close, almost everything else feels inferior after this game
Leaving a positive review here so Nani doesn't murder me in my sleep.
(Seriously though, 10/10 game, a very creative and fun VR journey that I highly recommend)
one of the best vr games ive played,
its one of those games that i genuinely wish i could forget so i can play it for the first time again.
the story hits hard, while its simple it still manages to build on itself repeatedly and do something unique and fun!
peak, whoever wrote that one review about the game being "woke" because you play as a black female should jump.
Kinda scratches the itch after alyx so yeah must play for vr
One of the best VR games out there, insanely well done in story, character design, gameplay, locomotion, scale, etc.
The only thing that is rough is certain boss fights, more frustrating than fun with how difficult they can be.
Nothing but perfect, i literally found myself saying aw dang I can't even-- BOOM the thing I was about to complain about just appears as another cool feature in the game. And progress is always saved at every checkpoint, secrets to be found, cool guns that have minigames to unlock, I couldn't think of anything that would make this game better.
Played for 10mins. Realised it's another woke infested DEI game. Your character is a black female with no option to change sex or race. Totally ruins any immersion in the game.
Apart from that in the intro sequence I could barely understand the voice actors, one sounded like kermit the frog.
THE best vr game I have EVER played. It is filled with funny jokes and amazing gameplay, it’s a must have for vr.
Super creative devs and wonderful gameplay and story. Really makes you immersed in the game's world and all of its goofyness. Cant wait for into the aether!
this game is like half life alyx but with a rick and morty style so 10x better than half life
One of the best VR games, as good as or better than HL:Alyx.
Graphics are not AAA, but the game is recommendable.
It took me 11 hours to complete the game.
I will glaze this game until I die. The vertigo series is honestly my top vr games. The story, characters, narrative is so god damn good I just keep coming back to it. This game is the first game a lazy guy like me actually likes enough to have 100% the whole game. All I can say is this is one of if not the greatest single player vr game on steam. If you like half life or just any fps games then I promise you it is so worth it.
One of the best VR games of all time!!!
water 2
Probably objectively the best VR game of all time. The gameplay wasn't exactly my style, but still very fun. 10/10
Absolute sleeper of a hit! I'd never heard of this until recently and I'm so glad I did. The story was actually interesting and the combat was fun! I wound up picking up the remastered Vertigo 1 after this one as I liked this one so much. Unbelievable it done by just one person!! This is easily my second favorite VR FPS to Half Life Alyx!
One of the best VR games, story is a bit weird, well the whole game is a little bit weird but its fun and the gameplay is amazing.
I cant put into words how good this game is. Just play it. Its amazing.
Actually peak
Good game
greatest VR game I've ever played
This developer is crazy talented and shows a creativity rarely seen today in games. This is a must play VR game!
An amazing experience with a truly impeccable developer. I recently finished Vertigo 2 after a year of holding it off, and I am not disappointed. This game features immersive weapons which just hit the spot while playing the game. The game's characters also have a mild humor to them at most times which made me let out a chuckle quite a bit. The sound design is on another level aswell, the sound effects you will encounter in this game are on another level. I believe this sounds effects are sourced from Freesound.org as I use that too and have noticed some of my sound effects being in this game. Thanks to Zach Tsiakalis-Brown for this amazing step into the future of virtual reality.
really great game with interesting story and difficult fights. highly recommend for people who like intense VR experiences.
This is an incredible journey. This is what you expect from Vr. I want more.
never played something so creative, it deserves overwhelmingly positive. i give it a 9/10. for a 10 it needs better graphics. if it had the same graphics as half life alyx it would be a 10/10 and better than alyx imho.
Awesome!
One of the best things VR has to offer after HF Alyx.
actual ass
i like the tips, it said that people named Gribble are 20% worse, and its true
very very good story, but dizzy, it's my problem I think.
I got vertigo from this
