Refunding this. Edit: Game came back like a bad boomerang when purchasing Index controllers

It's boring, it's a half-life game without a sprint or proper jump button? When compared to games like Boneworks(The true must-play VR title) this game feels like babu's first VR title. You only move slow, which is weird enough for Half-Life, inventory works by throwing things into the aether behind you, there's no holster, no melee with props in the world, not a whole lot going on with physics puzzles which is the Half-Life staple, the only thing immersive is the production value. Which feels insulting when you play the plethora of indie titles that just ask if you suffer from motion sickness or do you just want to MOVE. If I could just get Boneworks with this production value and full narrative single player campaign, I'd be the happiest gamer.

This game also just refuses to load into a map half the time. Sometimes I get in on the first try, sometimes I have to restart the game up to 5 times to load into the map. And I'm just on chapter 3. And this refusal to load a map can happen when I'm going into a chapter. I've tried lowering all my graphics to the lowest, still just hangs for 10+ minutes until I give up and restart again.

Sucks since I wanted to get to the Jeff part that everyone says any horror fan should play, but I ain't getting there if I'm fighting the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ game every step of the way just to work.
