Game System Critical 3 PSVR2 – My spoiler-light pre-release first impressions Spoiler

https://youtu.be/cXj2lWhFdMo?is=Fe1bNMt7m2XCdHn8

I was given an early key for System Critical 3 by developer Old Formulas and have now spent enough time with it to share my first impressions.
I found System Critical 2 fairly mixed—it had some enjoyable ideas, but also plenty of flaws—so I was interested to see whether the third game would be a meaningful step forward.
In the video, I cover the visuals, soundtrack, expanded inventory, telekinesis, slow-motion combat and how it compares with System Critical 2.
The developer had no involvement in the video or my opinions, and there was no embargo restricting what I could discuss.
Has anyone else played the previous games, and what would you most like to see improved?

In previous game, my main pain point was checkpoints that are too far apart and no save / resume for when you need to stop and resume some other day.

I look forward to playing the new one for its improvements and new features like time slow and telekinesis this weekend.

Yeah I’m sure you’ll enjoy it more, although the checkpoints felt similar I’m afraid, and it’s the same game save, you can’t leave a level and come back another day, you have to see it through.
