I really enjoy this one. May well be my favorite VR title so far. It feels like a full game, not just a gimmick to utilize VR functions, yet seemlessly blends in those same functions. There's nothing quite like physically peaking around the corner during an intense firefight with covenant only to realize they started flanking you and frantically looking around for places to reposition to. It sounds like such a basic thing, but the execution of it this flawlessly in VR space made every combat sequence a treat.

Exploration is also aided by the VR mechanics, and it is surprisingly fun to manually search through every nook and cranny for ammo and currency.

I do however have a few gripes:
-There is a point early on in the game where ammo is a bit too scarce. This can lead to having to reload an older save and try to aim better in order to have enough ammo to progress. This being early on is rough too, because I know at least in my case I was not yet used to aiming in VR.

-A few points near the end it can be a bit unclear where to go, but that could also be a user issue on my end.

-The reflex sight upgrade is a trap and makes it significantly harder to aim in my experience.

These minor gripes aside, this game is well worth a try, and I strongly recommend it to anyone with VR.
