Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I'm a bit sad that the models weren't given a new coat of paint- in the original LN games they were much farther away from the camera and getting up close and personal with them wasn't an option (also very dark 24/7), so I understand why those ones weren't given much detail in the long run- but for a VR game where I am shoving my face into a large portion of these model, they are incredibly low poly and flat textured (I can count every polygon on the bully models laying around) - I'm sure this was probably for optimization of standalone headsets like Quest, but I would love it if they upped the graphics just a tiny bit for stronger headsets as that'd really blow this game out of the park.

Optimization
Players who bring up Optimization mostly praise it.
Also worthy of note is that I had 0 stutters or visual difficulties while playing which is very nice, its unusual for a VR game to actually be optimized on release.

Accessibility
Players who bring up Accessibility mostly praise it.
If nothing else this is merely accessibility, it took me a few more tries than I would've liked to hit the ones I've encountered so far and I am not new to throwing objects around in the VR space.
