just saw this thread so i thought i'd chime in. Half life alyx is so amazing. I've been into VR since the Oculus rift Dev Kit 2 and I'm happy that someone finally put out a VR game worthy of the genre. There have been other games that were good for sure but this is the first title that I'd consider "Must Play". I wasn't going to buy any new vr stuff but then alyx made me go ahead and pre order a reverb g2. It should be shipping soon!

I'd like to add that if you haven't done it yet, try out Half Life 2 in VR. You have to have strong VR legs because it does induce VR sickness pretty badly but if you can stomach it, it's amazing in VR! the game was ahead of its time and some of it's innovations (No cut scenes, large detailed maps) really work in vr.

anyway i see this as a perfect opportunity to plug my lets play series on youtube I've been doing on and off since 2015 where i play Half life games in VR!

if anyone needs help getting hl2 to run in vr hmu in dm i should be able to still figure out how to get it to run.

It's not bad at all if you use teleport to move around. I have a friend that gets bad vrsickness and she was just fine using teleport to get around. She couldn't do the locomotion style of movement at all though.

No I mean there's a way to travel where if you push the touch pad up it moves you forward like you are walking around.
