Thief VR: Legacy of Shadow - Reveal Trailer | PS VR2 & Steam

Supposedly it's just way too easy, next to no consequences for being seen as you just hide for a bit and it's all good, dumb as bricks guards give up too quickly and easily and can't follow up simple ladders and hiding spots (granted that last one was a thing in previous games I believe but come on, they're ancient pioneers of the genre, you can excuse them a bit, even if they can't climb they could switch to ranged attacks or squad up and guard your objectives), you can easily dispatch everyone and so on. Apparently it has no difficulty settings which were kind of a staple in the old games imposing additional goals like extra loot, restrictions like no killing human guards and even opening up extra areas. Hopefully they're working on something like that, which might have been too much for VR newbies but should have been there for veterans (of VR or the old Thief games alike).

It sounds to me even having a ghosting challenge difficulty so that you essentially auto fail when being seen or when bodies are found and such as the whole area goes on lock down or whatever would salvage some of this but of course more in depth difficulty integration would be more welcome.

That sounds not good but it could be worse i suppose.
 
It's out, curious about it, i loved the old Thief games (Thief 1 and 2)
I could play this on meta quest 3 using the app to play steam VR games correct?

Curious how it handles motion sickness. I imagine you do a lot of crouching in this game and usually going from stand to crouch makes my stomach churn.
