The game crashes my entire desktop on load in forcing me to restart. What the hell?

As of this writing I recommend that you wait to buy this game. At least a little while.

While it is enjoyable in this early state, there are game breaking bugs that will... break the game

For example, I am currently stuck not being able to rest when I try to camp on day 4 or 5.

Once I enter camp, a scripted dialogue sequence begins between two of my party members and I'm unable to proceed past this point to rest fully.

This is because the dialogue tree is broken, much like many dialogue trees in the game at the moment. So when the cleric tells me something is wrong, my character stares at her speechless and that's it. Nothing else happens.

This is reducing the overall effectiveness of my group because I CANT REST!

Short resting only works once a day.

See link below for an example of where I'm stuck and it's still Act 1. This is the dialogue sequence between my character and the cleric
*Spoilers*

Update: I was able to bypass the frozen dialogue by pushing the number keys 1-4 corresponding to the dialogue choices that should have been there and it allowed the conversation to continue and finally we can rest!

If you don't mind bug hunting then it's sure to be a fun ride as they work diligently to address issues with hotfixes, but I recommend you wait. There is no incentive to buy early. Except getting to play the game earlier than it's intended release date... As long as you aren't put off by beta testing and encountering bugs then you might enjoy it.

If bugs are a deal breaker then wait to buy it please! Don't ruin the game for yourself before it's truly ready to play.

Again, no incentive to buy early except getting to play the game early. That's it. No extra perks for being an early adopter. Maybe they'll change this.

I will update my review over time accordingly and update it to recommended when I feel it's in a good way.

Also, This game is not similar to previous Baldur's gate titles in that it runs on the divinity engine. Combat is turn based. Not dynamic like the original Baldur's gates were where you had to pause the game and strategize first then unpause and let the dice roll.

But the turn based combat isn't too bad once you get used to it.

Follow me on Twitch.tv/Spreadicus for live bug hunting.

Great game so far, will provide in depth review after i spent sufficient time with it. so far so good!

Work in progress I know but they currently lack true valve index support at this time. The knuckles register as HTC wands and it's quite a pain to navigate around with, Also no finger tracking support but that goes without saying. It seems scary though but I will try it again once they add proper index controller support.

I will mark this for now as

NOT RECOMMENDED IF YOU USE VALVE INDEX WITH FINGER TRACKING KNUCKLES

UPDATE Sept 2023:
So I have revisited this game in VR with a brand new headset, the Pimax Crystal VR. This game has potential but there is a major complaint that I have. The fog effects indoors are so absolutely atrocious that you can;t see ♥♥♥♥ beyond a few inches in front of your face. Inside the back of your home base/ truck whatever, its clear as day, but as soon as you step out into the night, the fog is there and it blinds you. Even inside the houses? since when does fog enter buildings? this is a stupid feature and should have the ability to disable its effects.

This is game breaking by the way so if you use Vr, avoid this game like the plague. It is NOT VR friendly.

Update: Played the game for another hour and I think they should rename it
Walking Dead : Stabbing Walkers Til your Arm Falls off...

Played the game for 2 hours give or take, As of now I can not recommend the game. I expect they will need to address some of the issues with a few updates so it might be best to wait it out or wait for a sale. You'd be better served going with Walking Dead Saints & Sinners. And I compare this game to that because they're both vying for the same thing. A single player experience. If co-op would have been kept in the game, there would be no competition from S&S but alas.. here we are.

Pros:
1. Weapons never break like they do in Saints & Sinners
2. I got to rub Daryls head





Cons:
1. The combat mechanics are terrible and unrealistic
2. Guns take multiple head shots to take down a zombie at point blank range while you have them in a choke hold(This is probably stemming from their upgrade system and having to upgrade your guns to make them effective but geez louise you might as well just get practicing with your knife. It will be your best friend. I love the blade... The blades a part of me..) UPDATE: Even after upgrading to do more damage it STILL takes multiple head shots at point blank range to take down a walker.
3. There is a red line of death chasing you down a set path on every excursion you go on. This is annoying. S&S did it right by having a timer that would unleash an actual horde if you took too long but you had full freedom of movement to explore.
4. No Co-Op (S&S didn't have co-op either but they didn't promise it early on either)
5. Can't flip the direction of the knife im holding for stabbing zombies in the chin through the head.
6. Grabbing and choking mechanics are not that fluid. Most of the time when going for a grab, you see the telltale bite icon indicating you just got bit.
7. No Valve index finger tracking support
8. No immersion. You aim at an object and hit the trigger to grab it.
9. Zombies flail around like they're completely weightless causing you to stumble as well trying to stab the f****rs!
10. Can't cover yourself in zombie entrails to avoid detection like you can in Saints & Sinners.
11. Zombies trip over other dead zombies and fall right into you or fall backwards stumbling but not quite falling over(watch out for this because you may overextend your arms and hit any nearby solid objects in the real world). They have no weight.


I will continue to play it and update this review as I go because I feel like 1 hour isn't really enough to form a solid opinion. Plus a lot of these issues are minor and can be fixed in future updates.

Feel free to check out my initial gameplay footage from my Twitch VOD feed (NSFW)

To the devs, If these issues get ironed out I will change my review to a recommended. I highly suggest you add the co-op mode because that is the only thing that will set this game apart and make it worth getting.

A fun game Haven't played all the way through yet but so far so good. Definitely some cutting edge VR capabilities.

They had a bug where the smooth rotation wasn't working but they fixed it within a day.

will update when i play through.



Received it free with my valve index.

Amazing game that really shows what VR is capable of. I need more like this!

Only downside is no multiplayer mode. Would be fun to explore areas with a friend.

Realistic physics and playable while seated.

If you have VR you need this game in your life!

After playing for a few days I have to say I am enjoying it. Will update when I get some real game time in.

Not much in the way of currently supported games as far as VR is concerned. You can get the program without the VR if you just want to play with 3d vision on the helixmod website. That being said I will not ask for a refund at this time even though I couldn't get any of my games to function properly under VR using Geforce 425 drivers (admittedly only a few of my games were even on the list). But hopefully as time goes on future updates will fix these minor issues and I'd like to support that effort.

Just a simple request if the developer happens to read This. Could you please add VR support for Shadow of the tomb raider at your earliest convenience? As of now it does work in 3d vision (which I own) but no 3d vr mode.

Keep up the good work. Vr needs more devs like this.

A game that seems to have been abandonded by the developers. The last patch was in January 2019 and the game fails to recognize index controllers (and rift controllers I am told). Granted you can still play the game with index controllers but the game detects them as vive wands.

You are given the ability to teleport for movement but can enable smooth locomotion under options. Only downside is you can't set a bind for actual turning, so you will have to physically turn your body to turn in the game. Maybe they were going for realism with this but it would be ideal to have the right stick allow turning movements. As it is the left stick can be bound to strafing and forward/reverse momentum.

Other than that it seems like an OK game but I would not spend 30 bucks on it. I it goes on steep sale and you have a VR setup that allows full body rotation (room scale) then it could be a good time. If you're like me and you prefer to sit on your arse while you play VR then you'll have a slightly more difficult time with things.

Going to choose not recommended UNLESS it's on a steep sale.

30 bucks is too much.
