Edit: I have 150 hours in this game on the Oculus platform.

The game has a lot of promise, but cannot be recommended in its current form at this time. New updates are laden with frustrating, sync-related bugs or game design decisions that cause unfair-seemingly failures or that force players to cut through most of the content as quickly as possible; as opposed to enjoying the content for what it is. But there is no new way to see this world once you’ve explored it, so the end game is the same MMO mill most early MMO endgame is. That’s enough for some players, but it’s not enough for all. The devs have a commitment to the game longterm, and I’m here for that.

But I also want address the condescending way in which the devs and community leaders responded to players calling other players “entitled.” It’s distasteful, and is bringing more negativity into the community. It harms more than it heals. Remember this is a game in Early Access that—ostensibly—is being developed by people who thrive on our feedback. Don’t handwave away these comments by calling them “entitled.” Knock it off.

There are a hundred games out there (albeit 2D) where you can grind to attain the best weapon or gear, and players have a choice. The reason Zenith has more potential is because of the nature of virtual interactivity. But at the moment devs are community leaders are squandering their goodwill, at least with me. I can’t speak for other players. I’ll change my review to positive when I see the community do better.
