So what is your guys opinion on firewall so far?

I have to admit I gave in and bought it yesterday, played the tutorial a bit but… have to admit it really feels off, having to click weapons to reload, switch weapons, open doors…

Seeing it in trailers looked fine but actually playing makes it so uncanny to me. I then hopped into a multiplayer round (?) which was basically the same area but with 2 other players and idk what was going on. I then quit since I went to sleep but really don’t know what to think so far.

I do love pavlov and now really wish the game would’ve been more like that. It’s hard remembering to click some buttons you can’t see, somehow. In pavlov it all feels natural, you just figure out where to put the mag and whatever by simply trying

    I haven’t bought the game yet, so I can’t say anything regarding the specific gameplay.

    I have, however, played games that have similar mechanics. Pressing a button to open a door is just lazy VR design. Having hands that move when your actual hands are not moving is really off putting and no game should do that. If you want to have a simplified reload, go for it. Maybe even with a button press, but don’t wave my hands around while doing so. As I understand it, however, there’s supposed to be an ultra game mode where you can reload manually.
