you just have not money on good VR garniture, like me(

[Guybrush3pwood]

What the heck is a garniture? Is there a gas leak in here?

I could ask the same of screen games, why not make them VR friendly..... Although beating up the developers is taking your tantrum a tad too far.....

because this game in basic is VR. Only one case to do it Keyboard-Mouse usable its adopt VR to Keyboard-Mouse.
And its main think when devs doing good VR game - VR first, Keyboard-Mouse second, not vice versa

You are the type of person who asked for a flat screen version of Half Life Alyx arent you?

DUDE. There. Are. Games. Where. The. Whole. Experience. Is. Based. On. The. Game. Being. In. VR.

That's usually how VR games go. They're made for VR. Why are you looking in the VR section, anyway? It seems like you don't have a headset and are just torturing yourself. VR is still a niche and there are tonnes more flat games, than VR. Just find something else. And if you don't have VR, I imagine you don't have the greatest GFX card, or rig. That said, this game needs a beast of a machine to run, so you may want to move on.

That's how I feel when I see flat screen games these days.

I am quite happy this game is made for VR only.
Sure, some games provide a decent VR-Version (Phasmophobia for example), but they are not the primary target hardware and need to agree on compromises.

Dedicated Tech needs dedicated Apps, this is true for every software development.
Think about wearable devices like smartphone vs smartwatch. You really don't want to use the same app, you are using on the phone, on your watch.
Sure, most software somehow is ported, but every time with the primary target in focus (phone not watch).
That said, I have no watch, so I am not completely sure.

Back to Phasmophobia, you can clearly see, the main focus is on Mouse + Keyboard.
Sure, you can put devices on things with much more control ... but you also need to contort your wrists quite much. Opening doors is also really not that easy ...

And if you watch the trailer/gameplay of Bootstrap Island, you will see quite many interactions not possible with only one mouse.

If you are lucky, maybe a No-VR Mod will be done, similar to Half-Life Alyx, if the game gets proper attention. Right now it is just one of many VR-Projects, done for a significant smaller group of people. So I am still curious how the long term development will look like.

For the gap, I can recommend The Forest to you. Maybe the second part too, haven't played it myself yet. But I haven't played bootstrap yet, too... ;-)
I am quite interested in the rouge-like part of the game, nothing The Forest is giving you... Besides, there is no Perm-death, and you can collect your dropped loot, if you are able to.
