Wonderful Story Driven VR Game
Hubris is definitely one of the better VR games to come out in recent years, it has a good variety of features/mechanics and a decent length campaign. Story isn't like...breathtaking or filled with lore to the point of book deals or anything, but it's not some cheap space fanfic. It has enough lasting potential for a sequel, perhaps a spinoff in the same universe even.
The mechanics are quite nice, your player body might not be a full IK ragdoll which, in a parkour oriented game, took some getting used to (about 20 minutes worth) but once i got into the motions, it came naturally. This game has feelings and motifs that remind me of other quite fun games, the parkour + shooting feels just like Stride wheras the overall story and gameplay is in the same ballpark as the Star Wars games by ILMxLAB, in particular Tales From the Galaxy's Edge. This is far from bad though as that game was very fun, despite its flaws. Hubris is every bit as fun as those types of games but with far more polish, though I should note there were some annoying bugs.....but those are easily fixed with patches~
I of course has some qualms with the game, not enough to denote a rating hit as it wasn't that bad, but most - if not all - of the problems I had could easily be fixed by the devs. A few bugs with climbing and one large bug that occured on occasion where the dialogue would break causing the need to reset were about the worse I'd come across in my playthroughs, nothing that caused the game to break or hours to be lost. I also wasn't a big fan of the reload as I love to make sure my guns are always topped off when possible so a reload button would be nice, however from other reviews this current version sounds much better than it used to be!
Shooting was very smooth and the story length was acceptable, an extra mode with a minigame or a wave shooter might be a nice post-story activity but I still definitely enjoyed the game and will surely replay it sometime in the future. <3
