I finally got to play Half Life Alyx!
Long term half life fan ako so being able to play Half Life Alyx has been a goal of mine ever since na release ito nung pandemic 4 years ago.
Nasa school pa ako when HLA released. And when I finally started working, hindi muna ako nag invest sa VR kasi ang mahal and my eyes are a mess. I have astigmatisim, uneven eyesight (left eye 125, right eye 500). Glasses help but they don’t fully restore my vision to 20/20.
Luckily, I found and bought a used Quest 3 headset sa marketplace. It was a gamble kasi I didn’t know how well VR will work on eyes like these…
INITIAL REVIEW:
Surprisingly, the game looked gorgeous and really immersive when I booted it up, and I wasn’t even wearing my glasses underneath the VR headset. The world was very believable and my body would react instinctively to the events sa game (for example, you know how your betlog tingles when you look down from a high place?) The Quest 3 was connected to my device via USB-C and I didn’t feel any latency with this set up. Frame rate was good too! I spent an hour just looking at every item and model at the early part of the game so that’s all I can say for now!
TLDR: Decided to play HLA even if I have astigmatism.
