A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I have a lot of respect for developers who bring new ideas and game modes and are thus keeping such a great game alive

This is absolutely insane. I love it. Always been a fan of deus ex and I love the idea to get to experience it in VR. But most importantly I am impressed with the creator of this mod that clearly knows what he is doing. Every bit of VR interaction looks and feels polished which is more than I can say about some dedicated vr titles

It is funny or sad depending on how you look at it that the fan modding community has done more for VR in these last few years than most of the big names. Then again it does make sense since there isn't much big money to be earned in the VR space right now. Hell while not a big fan of what Meta is doing with titles, they appear to be the only ones paying out a premium to have games developed for them resulting in a closed garden but for some indie devs, it actually pays the bills.

Can't wait to see what 2024 has for VR since with the release of the Unreal engine universal VR wrapper, we will likely see a boom in VR mods at least for the Unreal scene. Great job to all the mod developer out there putting so much effort into the medium.

I agree, it looks really good!

Well, guess I'm pushing back my first Deus Ex playthrough.
