AGAINST

Going through my VR games and saw that AGAINST finally left Early Access after years of no updates with... no actual final update? Looks like Joy Way pushed their old unfinished products into "Full Release" specifically to avoid Steams new system that warns users about abandoned games that haven't received updates since another of their games (which also didn't get updates) went full release on the same exact day.

it's really not a bad rhythm game!

The idea is good, but all movements are not in line with the indicator, which is very upsetting. I use wireless streaming with VD, but other rhythm games work just fine.

Dark cityscapes, sharp contrasts, and stylized environments evoke the feeling of a pulp detective story brought to life, where corruption, crime, and violence dominate the streets. The narrative follows a lone protagonist standing against the criminal influence of the enigmatic Dr. Vice, with story beats delivered through cinematic comic panels and brief textual interludes. While the story is not deeply complex, it serves its purpose well, prov…

RETURN TO THE CENTER., also breaks steamVR... nope.
