  • It's a free experience that allows players to explore iconic locations from Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, which can be enjoyable for fans.
  • The atmosphere and sound design contribute to a sense of immersion, making it a nice, albeit brief, tour of the game's world.
  • The controls are poorly implemented, leading to significant motion sickness for many players, with no teleportation option available.
  • There is a lack of interactivity, as players can only walk around and look at static environments without any engaging gameplay elements.
  • The experience feels more like a tech demo than a fully realized game, with many graphical issues and a clunky user interface that detracts from the overall experience.
  • graphics
    42 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics in the game receive mixed reviews, with some praising the stunning visuals and art style reminiscent of the Deus Ex series, while others criticize the low resolution and blurry effects that detract from the experience. Many users note that despite the appealing aesthetics, the optimization for VR is lacking, leading to issues like motion sickness and poor performance. Overall, while the graphics have potential, they fall short of expectations for a VR experience, leaving players wanting more interactivity and refinement.

    • “Graphics are still way above any current VR offerings.”
    • “The atmosphere, music, and graphics are amazing.”
    • “Deus Ex has been a source of amazing visuals, and this 'VR experience' continues that.”
    • “Even then, the graphics are awful and everything is covered in a weird blurry haze even with all of the graphics pumped up to max. It's hard to imagine anyone beta testing this and saying that it's ready for public consumption.”
    • “Graphics are very low resolution; 'demanding' is not an answer. All scenes are static, and they could have 'baked in' all shadows and materials into textures and called it a day with much better results in terms of visuals and performance. The resolution is a joke even at 100%.”
    • “While I wanted this to be totally awesome, currently the way they have optimized the graphics and the control system makes it basically a barf fest on the Oculus Rift.”
  • music
    9 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally appreciated for its upbeat nature and ability to enhance the ambiance, though some users feel it lacks a polished presentation, resembling a simple MP3 playback. While the soundtrack is a highlight for fans, particularly those who enjoyed previous titles, the overall audio experience is seen as inconsistent, with some praising the music's contribution to the atmosphere and others noting its shortcomings.

    • “The atmosphere, music, and graphics are amazing.”
    • “I loved Mankind Divided's soundtrack, so the ambient music was a major plus for me as well.”
    • “The music and environments are good and detailed.”
    • “It sounded like they pulled the music from an MP3 and just popped it in.”
    • “The locations are static and the music is upbeat.”
    • “Sound-wise, it has the music from the game.”
  • gameplay
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Gameplay reviews are mixed, with some praising the game's graphics and mechanics while others criticize poor controls and lack of engaging gameplay. Players noted issues such as motion sickness and fatigue from certain mechanics, suggesting that while the game has potential, it falls short in execution. Enhancements to world interaction could improve immersion and overall experience.

    • “It is also free, yet it brings something new to the 'portal' universe; it has gameplay that is valuable.”
    • “No need to get creative with game mechanics, but having the ability to change the world you are in greatly enhances immersion and would help make this demo a better preview of what is to come.”
    • “I would recommend you to play the game instead and admire the world in there, with its better graphics and superior mechanics.”
    • “Bad gameplay, bad controls.”
    • “Really bad controls and no gameplay at all.”
    • “The potential was there but the anti-aliasing was horrible and the movement mechanics were poor and induced motion sickness.”
  • atmosphere
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere of the game is highly praised for its stunning graphics and immersive music, creating a captivating experience reminiscent of the Deus Ex setting with a Blade Runner twist. Reviewers express excitement about the potential for a full-featured atmospheric game in VR, highlighting the overall polished presentation and engaging environment.

    • “The atmosphere, music, and graphics are amazing.”
    • “Very nice and atmospheric tech demo of how the Deus Ex setting could come to life in VR.”
    • “It has a great atmosphere in VR, and I have to admit, not being a Deus Ex fan, I'm very excited for this!”
    • “Would love to see a fully featured atmospheric game like this in VR.”
    • “Nice capture of a slight Blade Runner twist atmosphere.”
    • “Polished visuals and atmosphere, with no peeking through walls...”
  • optimization
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The optimization of the game is criticized for its low-resolution graphics and poor VR controls, with users noting that it runs smoothly on a GTX 980 but lacks excitement. Many feel that the static environments could have been better optimized with baked-in textures to enhance visuals and performance. Overall, the experience suffers from significant distortions and performance issues, leading to a disappointing resolution drop during gameplay.

    • “The graphics options are a welcome plus, but I would like to see the graphics options optimized for the industry-targeted VR specs.”
    • “Yeah, the controls could be better optimized for VR, but for a free demo of something pretty awesome, the goofy push-to-move controls are good enough.”
    • “This tech demo consists of several barely VR-optimized environments from the Deus Ex game.”
    • “Graphics are very low resolution ('demanding' is not an answer; all scenes are static. They could have 'baked in' all shadows and materials into textures and called it a day with much better results in terms of visuals and performance).”
    • “This 'experience' has very unoptimized 3D for VR because of the high amount of distortions when looking around the environment.”
    • “Performance was so bad that the game lowered the resolution down to 800x600, making the visual issues even more obvious.”
  • story
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the game is criticized for its lack of interactivity, as players find themselves merely walking through static locations without engaging gameplay, while the mission's ambiance plays in the background. Additionally, technical issues with the Oculus Quest 2 controllers further detract from the experience.

    • “It's just walking around static locations from DXMD while ambient sounds from the mission play.”
    • “Oculus Quest 2 controllers don't work!”
    • “Quest controllers don't work; had to override via virtual desktop.”
  • stability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Nice VR tour but has some glitches and bad controls.”
    • “Useless waste of time that isn't well suited for many VR headsets, causes headaches with visual glitches, controls awfully, and doesn't even look or sound impressive in any way.”
  • monetization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game is not explicitly addressed in the provided text, focusing instead on gameplay mechanics related to laser sights and ads. Therefore, no specific insights on monetization can be derived from this description.
