Players widely agree the game is very short, often calling it a 2-3 hour experience. [1][2][3] Many recommend buying it only on sale due to the short length and high full price. [1][4][5] Some players find the game fun and immersive despite its brevity, while others call it a lazy cashgrab. [6][7][8]

Take this recommendation with a grain of salt. I think this game gets a lot more hate than it deserves. I want to start off by saying, it took me all of 2 hours to finish this game start to finish. So I definitely DO NOT recommend buying it for full price. Get it on sale. A lot of the reviews I read before checking out the game seem to have a lot to do with people who have comfort issues with VR games. I was gaming …

It's a good game. It's only problem: that it's offensively short (2-3 hours). That's why some people call it a "tech demo". So if you have a VR headset wait until it's on sale and then get it. Basically, you fiddle around in an empty nazi base (it's a bit like being in the Batcave in Batman's VR experience), then you pilot some giant robots around a Paris that looks like City 17 from Half-Life 2 (maybe because the …

This is a lazy cashgrab with 4 missions, one voice actress and shameful, blurry graphics. You can probably have some fun for a couple of hours but don't you dare to buy this at full price, ever.

Had to refund this. First VR game to give me motion sickness. The tutorial has you going up and down in a lift. Your head says it's happening, but your body disagrees. When you finally get the ability to move, you slide across the floor, as if you were playing a standard shooter. Again, your eyes see it, but your body doesn't feel it. After 20 minutes of this I had to give up. If you can stand it, I'm sure it's got …

Glorified tech demo where I experienced frequent crashes. The story is basically nonexistent. If you got the game for free somehow it's worth one quick playthrough to experience using the mechs (which is fun for maybe an hour total), but otherwise not worth your money.

Players who liked Wolfenstein: Cyberpilot talk about controls feel great and intuitive; those who didn't talk about the game is offensively short, only 2-3 hours. Which matters more to you?
Critics, per Wikipedia

Many critics criticized the combat for its simplicity and clunkiness, and remarked that firearms in the game lacked a sense of impact.

Been on a fun little kick playing the Sniper Elite series and the Wolfenstein series and want some suggestions for what can replace it once I run out of campaign missions to do in those games. While I would love to replay the campaign missions of COD, I ain't paying like $30-60 for a two decade plus old game from EA. While I do prefer shooting nazi nazis, I don't mind suggestions that have you shooting fascists in general.…

neutral · AI labelView post →this is also conceptually funny because like the only reason to play SNES Doom is to see the impressive feat of getting a cutting edge PC game running on hardware that just barely handles Wolfenstein 3D making it HD 60FPS with KB+M just means you're playing someone's Doom clone instead of real Doom

neutral · AI labelView post →Do one thing, when you start. Turn 'Resolution Scaling' in Graphics options, 'to' OFF. It will get rid of that low-res blurriness. Adjust the graphics to your performance liking, after that. This is a pretty good game. I played it on 'Challenge', and got fried a decent amount of times, It's tricky in a good way. Your 'Special Weapons' are the 'only way' to get through, so practice your combat motions. I can see some people getting motion sickness if they stand up, so remain seated.
