It was not impossible to be killed but only happened to me once in gameplay (that was when I discovered how to activate a grenade on my chest).

Not a huge con but this is NOT a jump in and play for the 1st time VR game. ![]() You will readily be asked to rip off body parts in order to upgrade them which is a very cool and immersive element to Stormland. Grenades and health packs are worn on you Android body. The game uses the rip this apart mechanic a lot and its well done. There is no reloading mechanic however any picked up weapons can be literally ripped apart by hand and its ammo is automatically distributed to the correct smg/shotgun/sniper rifle etc. Dual wielding is easy, maybe almost to easy in hindsight. Weapon placement on your body is also a solid A-plus with the game taking care of some of the more annoying aspects of position locking rather making for a close enough is good and snap placement of any weapon you have. You can force grab almost anything and it makes for a solid feeling even during hectic combat sequences.

Its not liquid smooth as there is a ton on elements on screen at once. ![]() With an i7 6700k & GTX 1080 on a Rift CV1 we saw a solid 90FPS at the default HIGH settings. Visuals are top notch and what is to be expected for a “AAA VR Game” Insomniac Games has taken every possible lesson from their previous games and all other proven VR concepts of the last 3+ years in gaming and put it all to use here. This is what should be considered a 2nd gen/wave VR game. You skid along from island to island at high speeds in the large expansive Stormland environment. What is this game most like: Lone Echo meets Climbey meets Robo Recall meets Halo meets Borderlands.
