Their personalities are offset and different, but there is some genuine feeling that drips through in their dialog and actions during the game, propelling a solid story into something more memorable than it might have been without these two core characters.Īs the pair's space station suffers system failures to a mysterious anomaly, Jack and Liv have to go about fixing the damage. As her assistant, Liv has become rather attached to you, and these two companions at the heart of the story make for a really good pairing. You take on the role of a robot named Jack, and you assist Captain Olivia Rhodes - referred to as Liv in the story. The story is fantastic, the controls and visuals are completely immersive and is truly one of those games that could only be effectively conveyed with virtual reality. A Rift 2 could have generated a lot more buzz and excitement.While Lone Echo is not the first game to take science fiction trappings and add a sense of weightless movement to the proceedings, it is easily the best example to date so far. It needs to look and feel as phenomenal as possible to really show off the content. I know that's hardware not software, but we need the hardware to impress, not just software, which should follow in it steps. Oculus should have made both Quest 2 and Rift 2, different price points, low end, high end, all markets catered for, and VR showed off to the masses at it's full potential. They could have delivered a 2.5k per eye, 150 degree FoV headset, with five finger tracking and high quality valve-like audio. 5 finger capacitive tracking is easily doable alongside that too. They could provide a far better VR system for far less cost. Most of the cost is the lighthouses and controllers, of which Oculus wouldn't have to deal with. Nothing to really make most people say- "wow". It was just a nice all rounder that improved on most things slightly. The fov boost was nice, but overall the visuals were nothing to write home about. Index should have been that, and it was great, but it was actually still a compromised system because they chose to go with lower resolution and it was more incremental than a leap. What Oculus should have done is step up their game in PC VR with a Rift 2 that costs £599 and absolutely obliterates anything in the market, a near true next gen system that shows the full potential of VR hardware today. MOH is just a one off, that signals the end of the Rift exclusive software. I don't think any future Quest titles will be available on Steam. I believe Medal of Honor is only coming to steam because they want to try to recoup the high production cost, which won't be covered by PC sales on Oculus home by it self. Of course the game will still come to the Oculus PC platform with enhanced graphics, but it won't be coming to Steam. I doubt they could get Lone Echo to run on the original Quest, so I'd guess it may be the first Quest 2 exclusive title from Oculus. The team was also most likely forced to redo Lone Echo 1 to work on the Quest 2 as well. Remember, Oculus owns Ready at Dawn, and there is no way they will release there premiere VR game on a dead platform like the Rift as a PC exclusive. I firmly believe that the reason we haven't had any updates on Lone Echo 2 is because the team was asked to rework the game to work on the Quest 2.
