I took a few by accident, but they're not very edifying. When I go back in later this afternoon, I'll take some sexier ones.

Haha, that sounds dangerous. Did you fall flat on your arse? :D VR can have some bizarre effects. I've nearly fallen over bending down and trying to stabilise myself on a nearby wall. There's a bar in Alyx and I really wanted to take a seat and pour myself a drink.

I do have A Chair in a Room but I haven't got very far. I found it a little frustrating, partly the Index controllers trying to emulate the Vive controllers. When Alyx is done I will try it again.

Have you got to chapter 7 yet? :O Oh my god that is some tense crazy shit going on! I had to take a break at one point and lots of swearing!

I haven't found the game particularly difficult. The enemies are pretty predictable (combine are mostly shoot, pause, shoot), head crabs are less jumpy and slower that they used to be, and J*** **********.

Screenshots really don't do it justice.

Hmm, I tried uploading two more but that don't seem to have worked on my phone.

Found toilet paper! Out of stock in the shops, but at least I can get it in VR :D

I think screenshots in VR are a little like taking a picture of the Grand Canyon - it just loses the scale that you experience when you are there.

Here's some more anyway.

Some of the game seems a bit - janatorial?

That's dystopias for you.

Yes, I found exactly the same. And the best screenies would be when you're arse deep in combat, when taking a screenie is the last thing on your mind.

Gotta say I prefer the fictional ones.
