If you're looking for a VR game that rewards creativity and offers endless combat possibilities, Blade & Sorcery is a must-try.
Killing people has never been more fun. This brutal game allows me to let all my hatred out from my long day at school where I get bullied. Anyway, this game is super fun and I love it so much that I would marry it if I could.

You have not experienced gaming until you're holding onto a golem for dear life as you try to punch out one of its crystals while the game breaks every single rule in the VR motion sickness guidebook. Pure unadulterated ludo. Highly recommended.

Great game, but plagued with performance issues. Even on recommended hardware (High-End computer, USB-C 3.0 connection), its nigh on impossible to make it through one of the newly introduced Outpost levels without the game freezing, glitching, or tweaking out. I feel like I need to reiterate before I continue, what I am experiencing is NOT a hardware issue. I can consistently run other, much more demanding VR titles, such as Half-Life Alyx, and EXTREMELY demanding desktop titles, such as Teardown. The myriad of issues I've experienced are exclusive to this game, which is why I'm so peeved about them. A constant bug (that has existed for over a year at least, never patched) makes the game completely nauseating with dramatic camera wobble, which also occurs constantly during outpost levels. Most disappointingly, the Dalgarian levels (the spectacle levels of the Crystal Hunt campaign mode) seem to be plagued with these issues the worst. It feels like every time I try to go through one of these levels, I discover a new frustrating bug that impedes my progress. Hopefully, WarpFrog will finally take notice of the worst of these bugs (specifically the camera shake bug, so genuinely frustrating to deal with) and patches them, but as time goes on, that seems more and more unlikely to happen. TL;DR: Amazing game, but needs a lot more time in the oven. If you're interested in this game, but are unsure about its performance, just hold off for a while until some of the more excruciating bugs are patched out.
Honestly after being one of my favorite games for VR of all time, 1.0 turned out to be a very big disappointment. Crystal Hunt The Dungeon crawling mode was honestly pretty cool! However, 1.0 barely added any new rooms to the existing dungeons, meaning 80% of the rooms you come across have already been playable for years. The biggest issue however, is the AI. The AI, as with most VR games, really really cheapen the experience. They will circle you at inhuman speeds, and throw their lives away without meaning. 90% of the enemies (the 10% being the ones with helmets) will quite literally just walk head first into your weapon if you extend your arm and let them. Their attacks and animations have the NPC playing what looks like a puppeteer'd animation that they are LOCKED into. If they hit you, or get too close during said animation, they do not stop it. They WILL continue their swing through you and your body, making it extremely awkward. As much as I'd like to recommend this game now that it's at a full 1.0 release, I would but 50% off. It is extremely repetitive and once you learn how the AI decides between its 3 choices it makes in combat (walk backwards awkwardly, stand still, or very aggressively phase into you). It's a VR SWORD FIGHTING GAME and the AI can't even use two handed weapons... after years of early access.
AI ruins the whole experience, it's either too easy to defeat or too janky to fight against. They always walk right into your face like an annoying mosquito, clip their weapon through yours, and hit you, or they suddenly perform an inhuman move out of nowhere. Sometimes, they're so determined to give you a backshot that you have to spin around like a biological Beyblade just to keep up.
3rrd edit: just a minor complaint but please devs, if you are reading this, Fix the index controller finger tracking please. the fingers can get caught up on top of eachother 2nd edit: Yeah no it didn't help. Also forgot to mention that it lags my whole pc to the point of unusability sometimes, and one time my PC BSOD'ed. OPTIMIZATION, PEOPLE. PLEASE. Edit: Reboot+Reinstall helps a lot. I really want to like this game, but on 4 year old hardware I get 30-40 FPS, which is ok, but as soon as I load a different level than home, I instantly start having 5 seconds per frame, and then slowly recover to about 5 fps, which is only fixable by rebooting the game, making it practically unplayable. Works great other times though. Poor optimization for PC, not enough graphics settings
After around 14hours and my 7th dungeon it decided to stop loading the teleport at the end of the golum fight, making me waste around 20 min for 3 times before i finally gave up. the climbing is one of the worst i had in any vr game and 6 months and still no achievements that where promised 4 years ago
