What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
It's a journey through secret labs and strange worlds, accompanied by a few talkative characters, human and otherwise, with some quippy bits of dialogue from time to time, and some arguably fantastic pieces of humor throughout.
With an action gameplay loop that's on paper, pretty standard from start to finish, the perceived variety of the game and range of emotions you'll feel across your adventure within it is impressive.
Environments are colorful, imaginative, and often striking, with lighting and scale used effectively to enhance immersion.
My main gripe was honestly Brian's voice acting lol.
Vertigo 2 ran fine with my setup, which isn't entirely up to date or even ideal for VR gaming, and I still had a wonderful time in the headset and didn't have any FPS drops or stuttering issues to take me out of the experience.
Theme by theme
Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway. 2 more themes were each raised by fewer than 6 sampled reviews and are not shown.
