Damnit, I didn't realise there was a post-credits sting. Can somebody spoiler it for me please?

Goose wins! Flawless victory. I enjoyed this a lot.

I might dip in again in a few months, once they've patched it so you can skip cut-scenes and fixed a few more of the bugs. Some of it was great. Certainly not tempted at the moment though.

I've been playing Sairento loads lately, and it's probably my second favourite VR game at the moment (behind Beat Sabre). It took me quite a while to start getting properly good at it (there are a lot of controls), and it makes my arms hurt like crazy after a while, but it's just so much fun, especially on the higher difficulty levels. It's pretty samey though. The campaign is short and sweet, and then it's just a matter of doing randomly generated levels, getting more/better loot, and doing it all again. My loadout of choice is currently a one-handed machine gun thingy in my right, and a samurai sword in my left. Leaping around and John Wicking bad dudes in slow-mo from the air never gets old.

To be fair, you’re not actually subscribed, are you?

Was that before the rise of the streaming services though? Viewing habits have changed massively in the last couple of years, so it'd be really interesting to see how those figures have changed. When you're already in the habit of loading up Prime or Netflix to watch a movie, being a single click away from instantly watching something for 99p (that's not included in your sub) is far more appealing than having to load a separate application or (heaven forbid) go outside to buy the physical media. For most people, it's far easier to cheaply rent a movie now than it is to download a pirate copy.

They do that with most films, and it hasn't made piracy magically disappear.

What are you basing that on? If your film was available to stream/download for a reasonable price, and wasn't available for free, why don't you think people would pay for it?

Nah. If you want to watch the sexy new 4K version that’s been carefully restored and remastered, you should pay for it.

So why should distributors invest in new technology to bring you a better experience at home? 4K re-releases are amazing. Are you saying you should get those for free if you bought the VHS in 1983?

Dude, it’s been like 3 weeks since it left the cinema.

Is it just your video that’s causing all the artifacting, or does it look like that in person?

Got it. So your reason is "I want to watch it now, but it's not legally available, so I'll just download a pirate version rather than wait a few weeks". Don't forget to seed!

Your reasons seemed to boil down to "I want to see it again, but I don't want to pay to see it again" or "I want to see it again, and I think I've already paid enough so I should get to see it for free". Personally I don't agree that either of those are valid reasons.

Heh, I’m also in the same place. Been like that for a week or so now, and can’t really be bothered with the final boss. This was such an awesome game, but the boss fights just left me cold and it was all about the exploration for me. Might finish it one day, I guess.
