I got a Quest 3, pre-ordered just for this game lol. Not my first VR game, I've played some on my sister's Oculus Rift, and played a couple things in the week I had my headset before this game came out. I think the headset is great, really cool to be able to wirelessly link to the PC or play standalone, and the passthrough mode is cool too. And the cameras can auto create your boundaries too which is very convenient compared to my sister's Oculus Rift.
T7GVR was awesome, you could tell the devs were real fans of the original game.
The puzzles aren't as difficult as T7G or T11H, but there are a larger number of puzzles to compensate, and the puzzles still force you to think. People hated how difficult T11H was in 1995 lol so that would be even worse today, there's no way any puzzle game could be that difficult today and expect to sell more than 5 copies lol.
And the soundtrack is full of beautiful remixes of the original songs. The volumetric videos are really cool and the graphics and art are great. The acting is good too, not as over the top as the original, but no one would've taken that seriously in this day and age lol.
Totally understandable about spoilers. I hope you enjoy the game!
We have a Discord community which is much more active than this. We're very careful about spoilers there with separate channels for spoilers and even still using spoiler tags. We've also got a couple of the devs in there. https://discord.gg/Hss5cJg
Multiple fans of the OG in our community are gushing over this game, haven't heard anyone who doesn't like it.
Glad to hear it worked out that way and thanks for the detailed answer :)
