    One of the best PSVR game thus far. I give this a 9 because its the best bang for your buck VR experience. This game is very short, about an 1 and a half hour but it's also very cheap: 9.99 us $ (13 ca $). It's actually a first episode of a longer game. The look of the game is very much Fable/WofWarcraft. There's not much action as it plays more like an interactive movie but when I playOne of the best PSVR game thus far. I give this a 9 because its the best bang for your buck VR experience.

    I have played a lot of VR games. The one I think back on the most is this one.

    This is the game that convinced me that characters and storytelling in VR is going to be one of its greatest strengths. I absolutely adore the characters in this game. They are all interesting and compelling in their own ways even from the brief time I got to spend with them. I cannot rave enough about    I have played a lot of VR games.

They are all interesting and compelling in their own ways even from the brief time I got to spend with them. I cannot rave enough about the experience of being with these adorable virtual people; I really felt responsible for them on our little journey together.

    This game is definitely short, no question there - that's why it's only $10! Amazing value for that $10 though: they pack in a surprising number of different segments and a variety of really neat moments. It's a great "try a bunch of different kinds of things in VR!" sort of game, all tied together by an intriguing narrative.

    Don't pass this game up just because it's short. The journey you take with these characters is absolutely worth it.    … Expand

    Since this is a story driven VR experience, the story really needs to be better than this for it to work or the graphics and environments need to be amazing. They aren't.

    Fated: The silent Oath is a short narrative driven game with little action or interactivity. Unfortunately that story did not draw me in. Do not recommend.

    Fated is a good VR experience, with spectacular activities, but the story ends really too quickly and too suddenly.

    Fated is well-meaning but hollow. [June 2017, p.92]

    There are only a few interactive moments in the game, but they are all pretty simple and seem to have been included so that Fated could call itself a game rather than a VR movie. The story is enjoyable enough, especially if you have more than a passing interest in Norse mythology, but the game is really short and ends rather abruptly, and it ends in a manner that will undoubtedly leave many disappointed with the ending. And if you're looking for a VR experience that's more game than experience, you should look elsewhere.
