What's with all these VR tech demos?

[I.T Drift]

I keep seeing all these VR games, and they all have one thing in common, they are just short tech demo's, why doesn't anyone make a full game. Your supposed to encourage people to buy VR, not scare them away. The only developer that I have seen VR done properly is a game called The Solace Project.

Until someone makes a real full game, I wont be bothered with VR anytime soon.

This is short, but it is a full game, maybe it should be cheaper for it's length but that's another argument. but if you want full games in VR:

Arizona Sunshine, Quell4D, BattleZone, Dead Effect 2 VR (granted this one is early access and missing some missions), Elite Dangerous, Serious Sam First Encounter and Second Encounter VR, Vertigo, Subnautica.


And I've left out a lot, I didn't include Rogue Likes or Multiplayer only games, there'd be plenty more.
And there's more I'm just listing the ones I own. I've got my eye on Gunheart and a few others, excited for Fallout VR, Skyrim (eventually) and Payday2s VR support.

My point is... VR isn't just tech demos, getting a bit sick of people saying that, it was true for a while, but it just isn't anymore. I'm not saying lots of ♥♥♥♥♥♥ tech demos don't exist, but if we're going by majority then PC gaming is ♥♥♥♥ because steam has lots of ♥♥♥♥♥♥ games.

yeah, I forgot about Elite, I got that and subnautica.

Maybe I shouldn't say its a tech demo, I just wish it was a little more fleshed out. Its kind of disappointing, they have such a great idea, just needs to be fleshed out alot more. I just don't bother with such short games anymore, not enough depth for me.

Im upset I paid 30 bucks for a 2 hour game as well =_=

The thing is, VR is still very new to the gaming realm. There are several other games out there that aren't as long as your normal video game, but the more VR games come out, the more popular and higher demand they'll be in. Thus, making VR cheaper, quality of the games better (including longer games), and just overall, a better experience.

Lone Echo is fdar from a tech demo. Last I checked it was one of the best reviewed pc games of the year.

I challenge you to play it on Hard your first time through. You're not beating it in 2 hours.
