Alvo VR

One of the best shooters on steam!

Though originally designed for the PSVR1, the developing team has extended themselves beyond that market and opened up to all VR platforms for the sake of community. It is one of the very few (it is the only one I know of, but I remain humble here) games to reach all platforms with cross play enabled. It also has features to support a large variety of players so no one feels left out. The discord is open and friendly (mostly) with great moderator support, and the lead developer is quite active should anyone need help. Many will rightly criticize the game for subpar graphics. This has been a major sticking point for players and a major turnoff. It is understandable, but its age can explain all this. Having been announced in 2017, it was expected to compete with some of the more high quality (visually) games out there. Unfortunately it lost its funding and most of the Mardonpol team left to pursue other ventures. Two remained on and a single investor brought the game back from off the shelf. OutsideIn Entertainment took on the IP as part owner and later full time owner. By 2019, more videos showcasing the progress of the title were uploaded to their main YouTube channel. It featured…

The game can be fun at times, but it's riddled with bugs that and poor game design choices that make it an incredibly frustrating experience. It's Call of Duty in VR, but as a new player your guns are terrible so the pros not only have the experience advantage, but you have to spend 30 hours grinding your way to a gun that actually can compete against their overpowered arsenal they've unlocked. Progression is faster TTK, and not more variety. I've had bugs where settings would change themselves so I lose the ability to turn because it dropped my turn speed to zero, and the re-spawn system is predictable enough that you can be spawn camped. I've had game-breaking glitches where I would load in and it would crash after a couple minutes, as well as a bug that made my character spin around in circles and restarting my headset and computer did nothing. I almost threw up. The only reason I'm playing this game is because I can play it with my friends on PlayStation.

The game opens long enough to hear the music then it crashes... I have 20 minutes of me opening the game just for it to not launch. Is anyone else having this issue? I loved playing the game on PSVR on the Ps4 and PSVR 2 on the Ps5 but for some reason the game will not launch on the PC. I didn't want to ask for a refund because I do like the game and always had fun. *EDIT* I can launch the game without Steam VR being opened and it runs, but then as soon as I open steam VR the game crashes again...
