Early Access Review
I nearly didn't buy this because of the negative comments about performance. That's strange, because it performs fine at 1920x1200 on my 11 year old 4790k/1080ti system with all settings on high. I just finished the first tutorial level and so far, all good, and gameplay met my expectations.

This game is riddled with insurmountable bugs that ruin the scenarios. Red lights that never change, Trains that won't move forward, (but will move in reverse "In Neutral!").

We are now being offered TSW2 (with TS2020 still available for sale at the same price ??).

By this stage in it's life, TSW2020 should be bug free, but sadly, if this is an indication of DoveTail's attention to detail, I will not be buying TSW2 (which I was just about to buy, but reading its reviews reveals that nothing has changed)

Such a shame about a sim that looks really good , but disappoints so many times.

This sim is a showpiece for VR. It runs brilliantly on my 980ti.

And it's excellent in nonVR as well.

They mean it when they say they want to involve the player community. User/developer interaction is excellent.

Really enjoyed this game. There were a couple of moments where I heaved a sigh in fright. Not over the top, just eerie and the occasional spooky moment.

The Gun spawns in my left hand. (I am right handed)

Despite my controllers clearly being in the correct hands when in the SteamVR menu.

The grip on the weapon also feels wrong. The controller angle is too vertical.

This is a fun game and the developer is very responsive to user suggestions to improve the game further. The indoor Mansion Alley is cool.

Great app, but needs an audio sync adjustment to ensure the music is in time with the hits.

Early Access Review
This game is very promising as a VR showpiece, however more thought has to be put into the VR support to avoid nausea.

This game does a few VR No No's like moving the user and point of view, and mouse rotation control.

Unfortunately, it only takes one vertigo episode to ruin the game experience pretty much forever as your brain never forgets.

It will be a long while before I can play this game again as I feel sick just looking at the videos.

This is a real shame as the game could be a major VR showpiece.

I will revisit the game when they rethink the VR interaction.

Just tacking VR on to a game never works.

This game looks very promising as a VR showcase, however, they have to come up with an alternative to using the mouse to rotate the player.

An earlier version used an extended head turn to rotate the player. That was preferable to using the mouse which is too jerky and causes acute nausea

Unfortunately, once a game makes you feel sick, your brain remembers. Even looking at the video makes me ill now.

Thats a real shame as World Of Diving looks really good and is very promising.

VR is in it's infancy. There will be a set of Do's and Don'ts clearly defined one day.

I will re-visit this game once the VR movement has been improved.
