(Read this as an informational review so players like me can know there isn't a feature we came to expect as of right now (April 2023) : local multiplayer) As a dedicated fan of VR games like Panoptic, Nemesis, Escape from Mandrillia, and Takelings House Party, I was genuinely excited to try out VR TRIBES. However, I couldn't help but notice that the game is missing some crucial options that I've come to expect from similar titles, particularly when it comes to local multiplayer and accessibility for friends who don't own VR headsets. I discovered that this issue had been raised in a 2022 discussion thread, but unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be on the developers' official roadmap yet. I sincerely hope they will consider implementing features like Remote Play Together, Parsec, or even a buddy/friend pass system in the future, as it would make it so much easier for me and my friends to enjoy this game together. As of now, it's difficult for me to ask my friends to invest in a game t...

First! Picked up this game as a gamble. Realized after doing the meteor tutorial (VR version) that I'd have to join the discord (at least at this point) to find games. So joining the discord is highly recommended. The game IS early access but this scratches that Davigo/Panopticon itch I've had for a while - without the need for remote playtogether! I mostly played as the meteor but also played a round as the tribes person on PC. I ended up playing for an hour ish with the Developers as they happened to be on the discord and it was a great time. Is good. Would recommend. Edit: Also my specs are as follows (I think recommended specs are a bit higher but my game runs in both VR and PC just fine on default settings, and 0.8 pixel density in VR.)

But This computer is like 7 years old and I had it custom built for about 2 grand at the time.) Edit: Forgot somet...
