This is my favourite game. If you are considering buying it, just buy it. The full game isn't even out yet and I'd still 100% recommend it for the current price. It's just an extremely well made take on the FPS genre, unlike anything else, and I really really enjoy it.

The unfortunate pairing of the moment-to-moment gameplay of a platinum game mixed with the mind-numbing ducking and waiting around of a cover shooter. If they'd just made this a character action game it would have been so much better!

The best narrative game ever made. If you like a good story, if you like "your choices matter", you will love this game.

Deeply thoughtful narrative adventure. Don't go into it with big expectations for gameplay, but make sure you're in a mood for a definitively post-modern and truely unique story.

I'm probably in the minority here but I thought the combat and level design in general was a bit tedious, and overall I didn't really enjoy it that much, this being my first half life game. The story was great though.

Incredible VR experience, this will be the benchmark for all VR games to come. The graphics are incredible, the story is fun and engaging, and the gameplay is perfectly crafted for all the strengths of VR. The game does not compromise on a lot. It's crazy to think that I may not have played this if I didn't get the valve index, as I would be hugely missing out on a brilliant masterpiece.

Pretty fun but as with all underrated multiplayer games it's difficult to find a lobby especially when you aren't in the US.

Honestly just don't think I get it really. Thought the story was cool/interesting but the levels and combat I just couldn't get on with. Probably a me thing, because everyone says this is an absolute classic!

Absolute slam dunk instant classic. It's completely unjustifiable that microsoft is shutting down Tango after they made this.

Very high quality stealth game with great enemy AI and great level design. If I'm honest though... I kinda wish the whole game was more similar to the the DLC mission. The tools that Dosan has in my opinion lend to more fun and creative scenarios, and the mission structure of the DLC was much more interesting, to me at least.

Gives me the exact vibe of perusing museums in real life with my family. I love looking at all the pieces, seeing the little nuances and brush strokes and polygons. Not for everyone, but definitely for me.

Unfortunately following Riven is quite a hard task. The puzzles were significantly worse, although I did enjoy the acting and storytelling in this one, it was a welcome addition to a game much more similar to Myst 1 than Riven.

Set the standard for puzzle games. It's dated in some places but still holds up really well for the most part, you don't really need to play the remakes.

Loved the gameplay all the way through, and the story went places I never thought it could. Really great narrative overall - felt like everything was set up from the beginning to give you these moments of realisation and discovery.
