story
452 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe game's story has received mixed reviews, with some players finding it engaging and humorous, while others criticize it as generic and poorly executed. Many reviewers noted that the narrative often feels secondary to the gameplay, primarily serving as a backdrop for wave-based combat rather than a compelling plot. Despite its shortcomings, some players appreciate the immersive setting and voice acting, suggesting that the story adds a layer of depth to the overall experience, even if it isn't the main focus.
“What begins seeming like a cliché 'end of the world' scenario slowly develops through comedy into being something that gradually evolves into what I would call a story that is shorter but rivals Evangelion in twists.”
“The story is interesting and even manages to explain away the teleportation locomotion not as a technical workaround of VR gaming but as a sci-fi story element.”
“The story is classic cyberpunk / science fiction, and they really nail the details of building immersion into that world.”
“The story is outright tone deaf.”
“I cannot take this game's story seriously, and I cannot enjoy the game when they ruin it with such a tone deaf story like this.”
“The story feels more tacked on and is not really engaging.”

In spite of a lack of different enemies and occasionally unreliable motion controls, Raw Data nonetheless stands as one of the more intuitive and satisfying shooters available on PSVR.

The team at Survios have done something few others have accomplished in the VR sphere - they’ve put out a whole game. It’s not a concept, it isn’t Early Access, and it’s not a half baked demo - Raw Data is a complete product featuring a single-player campaign, cooperative multiplayer, PVP, multiple classes, and more. While there are still a few bugs to iron out, Raw Data manages to elevate itself above the usual wave shooter fare.
