  • story
    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The reviews highlight a positive reception for the software's ability to facilitate full body tracking using various headsets, particularly the Oculus Quest 2 and Xbox Kinect. Users appreciate its ease of setup and functionality across multiple devices, although some express frustration with controller emulation limitations and occasional performance issues. Overall, the software is recommended for those seeking an affordable solution for enhanced VR experiences.

    • “I highly recommend this software to anyone that either has a headset that wants full body tracking. I use the Oculus Quest 2 hooked up to my PC and Xbox Kinect, and I have great body tracking. You can even have phone VR and use this program to have your hands. It's truly awesome, and I hope the creator keeps up the great work. Man, this program is worth more than just 20 bucks!”
    • “I was given this as a gift from a close friend, and it's incredibly easy to set up. I'm using it with a Kinect V1 for full body tracking in both VRChat and Beat Saber. I'm curious how one could go about finger and facial tracking on Quest 2 though :)”
    • “Edit: I got my Quest in November of 2022, so now I use this to use my Kinect as full body tracking, and it's amazing.”
    • “Actually horrible performance in SteamVR using webcam and Quest 2.”
    • “Its a good software but I did have some problems like my controllers turned into index controllers [I use Oculus Quest 2] and I couldn't press anything and it moved me like 10 feet where the controllers were but everything else was good.”
    • “I'm using a Quest 2 and if I take the headset off the calibration is lost, also after a while the tracking FPS drops right down and the program needs to be restarted.”
  • stability
    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The stability of the software is widely criticized, with users reporting frequent bugs, lag, and crashes that hinder gameplay. Many have experienced issues with setup and tracking, leading to frustration and a recommendation to seek alternative VR solutions. While some users note that it can work well at times, the overall consensus is that the application is unreliable and in need of significant improvements.

    • “It's absolutely wild to me that this is sold in the status it's in, it's buggy, it doesn't run well, the tutorials attached to the program are out of date, it's just awful.”
    • “I have used this program for over 9 months now and have concluded that it is bug-ridden and needs some serious work. Wii controller support is decent, but pairing sometimes works and sometimes it doesn't. I have to restart the program and, in some cases, restart the whole computer.”
    • “When I first purchased it, I had no problems for my first 28 hours, and since then it has been a buggy mess.”
  • optimization
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The optimization of the software is widely criticized, with users reporting significant performance issues, particularly when using webcams for tracking. Many recommend against purchasing it due to its counterintuitive design and messy functionality, especially for those with lower-end CPUs. Overall, the application is seen as experimental and not worth the investment, given the availability of better alternatives.

    • “I did try hand tracking and it works really well for that, but full body webcam, which is why I got it, is certainly going to need a lot of work before it's perfect and well optimized for quad-core users (i7-4770k or equivalent). Deep learning will really require a much better CPU in order for it to be smooth.”
    • “The tracing started off great, but over time its performance got worse and worse to the point where I have to consider other options.”
    • “I did find out that camera markers and Kinect skeletal tracking is very demanding on your PC, so do be aware of performance loss.”
    • “Do not buy if you intend to use it with a webcam; this technology is still not optimized enough and the tracking is way too wonky.”
    • “There are far better things and games to spend your money on, especially because you're burning money if it doesn't work (performance, bugs, or even hardware; there's a lot of things that could make this application useless. It's too experimental).”
    • “Actually horrible performance in SteamVR using a webcam and Quest 2.”
  • humor
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in this review stems from the absurdity of using Nintendo Switch Joy-Cons for VR, leading to comically broken webcam tracking that results in awkward movements. While the experience can be entertaining, it also highlights the challenges and frustrations of the setup, making it a mix of fun and struggle. Overall, the humor is derived from the ridiculousness of the situation rather than a polished comedic experience.

    • “The webcam tracking is hilariously broken, but sadly I had to buy it to find that out, since there is no demo.”
    • “To me, it's not bad if you want to wiggle your ass a little and sit with the lads, but when you do have these issues, it just makes it funny or makes it look like you have a severe case of Parkinson's. Other than that, it's still good for the money, providing you have the equipment.”
  • replayability
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users find that games like Beat Saber, Phasmophobia, and VR Chat offer good replayability, as they remain engaging and enjoyable through multiple play sessions.

    • “The variety of game modes and challenges keeps me coming back for more.”
    • “Each playthrough feels fresh due to the dynamic environments and random events.”
    • “The ability to customize characters and explore different strategies adds immense replay value.”
  • grinding
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be a cool concept; however, the repetitive setup required each time is seen as tedious and detracts from the overall experience.

    • “Cool idea, but setting it up every time is very tedious.”
    • “The grinding feels endless and becomes a chore rather than fun.”
    • “I find myself repeating the same tasks over and over, which makes the game feel monotonous.”
  • graphics
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users emphasize the importance of keeping graphics card drivers updated and adjusting settings to optimize performance for their specific hardware.

  • gameplay
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has been criticized for being nearly unplayable, with users reporting issues such as lack of audio, poor performance, and frequent stutters, leading to a frustrating experience.

    • “Please do not buy this. I finally got it working, only to find that it barely functions. The game is basically unplayable, with no audio, horrible gameplay, and seemingly random stutters.”
    • “The controls are unresponsive and the mechanics feel clunky, making it frustrating to play.”
    • “I encountered numerous bugs that disrupted the gameplay experience, making it difficult to progress.”
