[h1] Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers [/h1] Have you ever wondered what would happen if Skyrim and Black Flag were mixed together with mostly dreams and a low shoe-string budget and released to VR? Well, no need to wonder any longer. This is the game that answers that question. So is the game so bad that it's bad or is it so bad that it's good? It's closer to good than bad actually. This game is ambitious if nothing else. There's totally epic moments (as long as you use your imagination) like when a dragon appears from the sky as you're sailing the open seas. You land on an island where a wench asks you to come inside her establishment. You get ideas in your head. Where is this going? Am I going up to her room? No, you get a quest to try some jousting. So you get a view of being on a horse and a knight's armored helmet on your head as your horse automatically gallops you towards your opponent. You reach out and aim for his head via mostly gaze aim although some...

Shoddy mini-games masking shallow gameplay.

Not sure what game I just played, but it didn’t match the sword and sorcery demo. This game is pretty, but I spent my time on the sea, going to and fro, triggering NPCs to sell wares or offer hints. It’s a little buggy at the moment, sometimes the shopkeeprs just loop dialogue, and after selling my fruit and loading up with cannonballs I could go no further. Honestly the best game I’ve seen this company do so far in regards to having some pretty elements, but I didn’t get into a single fight or go into a single bar. Maybe that’s further in or a different campaign. But I got it for free in a bundle. I’d say use your judgment. It’s pretty in parts but there is no turning around on land, only at sea. Which was annoying as you are on land to trade, etc. Right now if you can accept all the towns and people being twins of one another it’s good for those into trade games. Keep in mind it needs a ton of work. Sailing is a nightmare and if I had met pirates I’d have likely...

the game is buggy and broken

Great concept, music, story...but LOTS of simulator sickness. Nearly all the interactions are terribly thought out from a VR-comfort point of view; I can't make it through the tutorial. It's as if they designed it to be naseau inducing: "I know, let's make an experience where the camera is unsteady, the action moves away from the viewer, and the controls are gaze directed!" "Wait, let's do sailing that actually makes the user sea sick!". Unplayable. Unless you've got an iron stomach. I'd love to see a ground-up re-design of all the experiences to offer teleport and stationary options. The game has great potential, it just makes me throw up.

Not playable on Oculus. Can't get past menu screen, the one with the two boats. It wont click the button. I've come back to this 5 times now hoping it would be updated or something and would work. It doesn't. . Don't bother if you're on Oculus, can't speak for any other headset.
