Arashi: Castles of Sin - Final Cut

[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 3[/h1] You can view my full review here: https://youtu.be/RAb60HBBBOU As far as I can see, only one maybe two people actually reviewed the full game. There's a lot of negative, and positive, reviews of people playing this for less than 2 hours. That's a shame, because this is actually a good game. Now, people are free to write their negative reviews, but you're also free to take them with a grain of salt. I was expecting this game to be totally terrible seeing the "Mostly Negative" review status currently on Steam. However, this is more than just a decent game. It's a pretty good game, especially if you're new to stealth-action games. This would be the perfect game for those new to the stealth genre. This game is very approachable and very forgiving. As long as you're not totally asleep at the wheel and able to be somewhat observant, you should easily complete this game. It took me around 9 hours to complete this game (taking my time to fully explore). The best part of this game is all the toys you get to play with, including: bow & arrow, shurikens, blow gun, explosive bomb, smoke bomb, poisonous food (my favorite), and land mines (okay this m…

Honestly, I like the game. The levels look cool, the interaction with the dog is neat, fighting is alright. I am glad the devs cared to make a PCVR port at all. I think we all know It's not like they can expect a lot of money there nowadays. Physical turning was already added with the last patch and I would like to see roomscale movement too and a less jittery image overall.

[h1]Serious HMD Judder Issues[/h1] I cannot play this game. Something is seriously off how this game handles HMD movement. There is noticeable lag/latency/judder with HMD movement. It feels like playing a drunkard. I could not get past the tutorial as the latency makes this game completely unplayable. This is the only game I have ever seen having this sort of issue. My framerate is fine (game runs at a stable framerate according to FPSvr). For ♥♥♥♥♥ and giggles, I tried lowering my super sample settings and did not make any difference. I refunded this as it does not look like the game is going to be getting any updates. The dev practically abandoned this game. Played on a Bigscreen Beyond @ 75hz (also tried 90hz).

I have been played for a fool, unless this gets a world-altering overhaul DO NOT buy this.

while it's not as bad as you'd think, my main issue is the price. The environment and theme is really cool, but the gameplay seems slow and clunky.. I did find out right away that you can cheese enemies by jumping at them and stealth killing them before they notice you, which was fun to a point. My main issue is this game is just too expensive considering it's lack of gameplay. $15 and it'd be alright, but $40? Pass.

Not at all what I expected and not in a good way. If you go in thinking it'll be Tenchu or Ghost of Tsushima in VR, you're going to be very disappointed. Wouldn't recommend buying for more than 15 bucks.
