    Despite just offering a taste of what's to come with Vader Immortal, the first episode has me hooked and I want more.

    Vader Immortal isn’t perfect. It’s very much the first part of a larger series, one that leaves you wanting more of each of its individual elements. But it’s a significant step forward for VR, bolstering a line-up of experiences that emphasize audience emotions over playable technicalities. The pay-off, it successfully argues, is richer than any immersive Star Wars experience before it. ILMxLAB once labeled this as ‘story-living’ over storytelling. A touch hyperbolic, perhaps, but I’m inclined to agree.

    a good game, but only with a vr helmet, and without it, the game could have come out worse than the new star wars movies

    It's a great game!

    Pros:
    * Star wars theme

    * Darth Vader looks intimidating

    * Lightsaber battles feel fun. You can actually block attacks + deflect projectiles

    * Great story

    * Holy duck visuals that make you gasp at the larger-than-life world

    * VERY well tested for difficulty. NO difficulty spikes that take you out of the experience. You're always in control and it's an extremely fun casual game.

    Cons:

    * My only complaint about this game is that it's very short. I think I must have finished this in 20-30 mins. And there's no replay value.
