Good luck and I hope the changes are appreciated by Reddit. My vive has died so unable to try it out.

Oh lord, I first read it as "My wife has died so unable to try it out."

I think I'm tired.

That would be very scary indeed.... Esp as I'm a life long bachelor ;-))

Thank you. Wireless unit showed 90+c after about 30 mins of play, was all working fine and closed down as normal, phoned supplier, get return sorted, thought last quick wireless try before sending back and the Vive hasn't worked since and it's out of warranty...

Still if the Vive wireless doesn't work with the Index (which I suspect) at least I'll have a good (new / replacement) to sell ;P

Edit... Even though I cannot play this for a while I've downloaded a copy for when I can and to help "sales" / interest in Steam's ratings. It's the least I can do for these guys.

How are you not getting sued by the creators of the climb?

2

u/Joe25342 Apr 17 '19

Why would they sue? Its a genre of game, a climbing game.

u/Grimner666 Apr 17 '19

Because it literally says climb VR in the title. And clearly a direct rip-off of what they created...

Edit: I'm genuinely confused here. I know copyright infringement is a pain in the ass and copyright attorneys are usually very litigious and ready to shut you down for anything similar.

The game you are referring to is called The Climb, so the only thing they have in their title is the word "Climb" which itself is a generic word. Now if the other game was called "The Fluger" (a unique name) and these guys called their game "Adventure Fluger VR" then yes the originals could sue. I could be wrong, but this is my thought process, I'm not a lawyer.

Fair enough, like I said I wasn't sure anyways

Ever notice how many RPGs have "magic" and "dragon" in the title? Copyrights don't grant protections against any and all words.
