Ancient Journey VR

(Original Vive) Ah what a shame to have to leave a negative review. This experience is far too expensive for how unpolished and inconsistent it is. I honestly don't think there would be so many negative reviews if this wasn't marked at $24.99. Major issues in relation to this being a $25 product: - lack of detail in the artwork - lack of consistency with how art is labeled. All should have specific fields such as Date, Location found, Notes, etc. and for fields that are unknown, state that it's unknown. Consistency is necessary. - some art not labeled at all - some labels were very close to the ground and difficult/impossible to read - not possible to get close to some art/labels. Seemed to have to do with nearby portals. - portals should be labeled so we know where we're going - sizing seemed off. I couldn't tell in the main museum, as I have not seen these in real life and cannot compare, but when I visited India (I believe) it seemed that things were too big. Noticed the same with Egypt based on the black cat licking itself.... it was massive. It ruins the immersion - In Egypt I was easily able to leave the map area and go off in to the galaxy with a white floor beneath…

Recommended for only enthusiasts. I played this experience first on Viveport Infinity two years ago. When I saw it was on sale, I bought it for my steam library. The museum as the main experience is a realistic environment, which has three rooms for historical artifacts of egypt, rome and asia. The photogrametric details of the artifacts are not perfect, some of them are too simplified on geometry, especially the relieves are lacking details of small indents and concavities. But, their textures still seem at high resolutions and they look photorealistic and believable if you don't pay attention very closely. So in general it does its job. The game has only teleport locomotion and oddly no snap/smooth turning option available. That teleportation mechanics is not even good either but it does its job somehow. The museum also has three sub experiences as separate maps which you can teleport to. They are just a historical thematic environment to roam. Their quality is not as good as the main experience. Their graphics actually look quite outdated. Yet, I liked the Japanese thematic area because it is quite bigger than I expected and I hadn't seen a place like that before. The Egypt …

Very good, please add more artwork! Expand the epic museum!

Nice collection of ancient artifacts from around the world. The added environments are like old video games (thinking Nintendo 64). Only worth it on deep discount.

No joystick rotation is just a mockery of players. Refund.

There is absolutely NO way that this VR experience is worth anywhere near $25.00. I only purchased it because it went on sale for 80% off at five bucks. To begin with, it will not start inside the headset unless you click start in a box that pops up on your monitor. There are also no options and you cannot disable or turn down the loud depressing music. There is also extremely limited information for each piece of art such as "Greek vase - 6th century BC." Then there are the scans themselves and let me assure you that they are low-res, low detail, and overall low quality. I mean why would anyone want to stand there staring at awful low quality scans while learning absolutely nothing? There are also only three rooms and they are cluttered with cheap looking statues that no curator would ever consider laying out in such a manner. And the scale of each piece of art is WAY off with everything being excessively large. There are also three areas that you can get to through portals, but the graphics are extremely outdated with flickering shadows and places where you can teleport straight through walls and outside the map. Overall, this is a very cheap VR experience that in my opinion shou…
