Into the Radius VR

This game is extraordinarily immersive and leaves you wanting to start "just one more mission." I love the novel Roadside Picnic, the old Russian movie called Stalker, and the Stalker game series, so getting Into the Radius as one of my first VR games was a really great choice.

This is easily a top 3 game for me. 1. Sliders scared the shit out of me so much I had to take the headset off. Good job 2. the home feeling + the not home feeling 3. gunplay is unnecessarily sharp and clean 4. Indie dev team 5. The immersion is nuts 6. Ambiance horror with the catharsis of 12 gauge

ITR is an amazing game. As a VR experience, it is up there with the best. It is obvious that they took some heavy inspiration from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series, and while doing that, it still manages to be it's own thing while mainly nailing that atmosphere pretty well with the VR aspect really cranking it way up. It is the things like running around with a rifle, getting something approaching you close by and while gripping the rifle by the hand guard you let go of the trigger grip, pull your side arm and hole a mob with it before sticking it in the holster and readying your main again to hole something bigger, further away. It is mega satisfying. ...[b]when it works[/b], which is one aspect I do want to cover. VR is inherently clunky, and for some reason ITR felt much more clunky than needed. An example would be that you get told in the tutorial that you grab past your head on the right, you grab your main off your back and if you grab past the left, you grab your backpack. ...

I went into the radius and never came back😭😭😭

While it took me approx 2-3 years to finally finish this game through several phases of playing VR, I absolutely enjoyed it. While the game was recommended to me by a friend as a "Stalker like", it quickly became evident that although the games setting, style and gameplay is indeed very similar to Stalker at times, it set iself apart and above all became much more than what i was hoping for and expecting. Looking back at it, the game is - sometimes - indeed pretty barebones, especially compared to its sequel in some aspects (though the sequel - still in early access - is missing some core features of this one (im looking at you gas mask)). But it will forever maintain its very special and loveable charme. Absolutely can recommend this game. It could go down in gaming history as a VR classic.

I feel like into the radius 1 is the Russians dealing with the anomaly and into the radius 2 is the Americans. This game is also overall amazing.

This game is really beautiful and really good and I'm gonna keep playing it but there's some major issues. Also keep in mind I've got something more along the lines of 100 hrs playtime if you include how long I've spent in the standalone Quest version of the game. The game's physics system is pretty basic, objects will collide with other objects and you can't shove items through walls. However it does not work very well while moving, which means you can't perform any fine actions while retreating from enemies or changing positions. (Which you have to do a lot.) You can't easily interact with your weapon, grab items from your backpack/pouch, or throw things that normal velocities if you're moving in any way. Also the game is just poorly optimized and laggy. Really laggy. If you point a two handed weapon at an enemy it can take upwards of two seconds for the game to actually recognize what you're doing and let you aim properly. My pc meets all listed specifications, I leave all settin...

The game looks incredibly detailed and interesting, bu the performance is so terrible the game is effectively unplayable.
