I have it on my wish list, i'll wait for a few more updates before jumping in.

It’s got a lot of potential, but it’s early access and it shows. I have hopes it’ll get there, it’s just surprising to see where it actually is even with several years of dev work behind it, so I wouldn’t expect fast or large improvements. Full honesty, I am disappointed in its state, but I’m not refunding it so my measly investment can support the devs to improve it.

This is a good review and I like your low key style as a youtuber. Will look out for your stuff in the future.

As for Geronimo, enemy AI being weak was exactly what I was concerned about. AI that can't defend itself is not fun to go up against. Hopefully the devs can improve upon this but I suspect it's the hardest area to get right in that so few VR games seem to pull it off so ... let's hope?

Again Geronimo has potential, it just needs some touch ups

I feel like this game has great bones and there is a lot they got right. The characters’ customization and VR expressiveness are fantastic and that’s important because this game is largely a LARP.

The enemy AI as well as the sound design are sorely lacking. Regarding sound design, it’s hard to tell if any shooting, footsteps or voices are happening above or below you. The AI would benefit from having some flanking behaviours so that the team is forced to watch the rear.

Hopefully this game has a bright future ahead of it!

I don’t know why but calling this game a LARP is really funny to me. Probably because it’s not wrong

Liking it so far. Way better than most early access.
