The Walking Dead Saints & Sinners - Casual game review and overview

The Walking Dead Saints & Sinners Game Review


This time we looked at a VR game which happened to be The Walking Dead, Saints & Sinners. 

The beginning of this game drove me insane, when I started it up I was having problems with the programs I was using. It is a game I owned on stream so I was using a virtual desktop to play it. With Virtual Desktop it is recommended that you open everything from their program and not from the Steam VR application. But with this game, it kept asking me to press buttons that weren't there. I was using the Oculus Quest 2, and it did keep referencing another system a vibe or value or something (I forget at this point) 

So to read the chat on the quest and have the game open I need it to be opened through the virtual desktop that was well not working that way with the game. So I switch over to opening it with the Steam VR which worked right away, but I could no longer see chat in the headset so I had to keep peering from the space by my nose at my screen to read the Twitch chat. (Man did that suck) 

So now on to the actual game, it started out with a pretty long basic tutorial. Going through all the where everything is what buttons do what, where to reload, how to hit zombies, etc. It was nice, but here comes the hard part when the game actually starts. 

Weapons all have durability and from what I have found is they aren't really easy to craft or to find once they break. It's also what feels like a very small hitbox to hit them in the head. It's like it's right just in front at a certain angle. I tried from the sides and it just wasn't going too well, I died a few times. Then it seems like the zombies are endless, I would clear an area and then have to run back from running out of supplies and there were more in the area I was just at. 

I loved the concept of the game, but for a casual gamer this just was nerve-racking and rage-quit fodder for me. 

I might give it another go at some point when I'm not annoyed that I can't see chat and do it without streaming. 

You can see some gameplay and a quick review video below. Also, me saying um a lot because my brain likes to process for too long when I'm thinking. (I should have done this sooner I've just been busy with other things so I was thinking of everything.)
