Euro is cheaper than US? That doesn't happen often, or ever...volvo leading by example:

The interactions and dynamics of it look fantastic from the trailer. It's not that far off either, although it'll feel like quite a wait
It looks like each individual component of Index on the Steam store comes with Alyx for free, so that's something. I would assume already existing owners get it too?

Fuck I’m buying this even if I dont have a VR set.
Sadly, unlike copies of bits, HW has a non-negligible production cost. At least until we figure out replicatorsNow if only they also have regional pricing for Index too

Will wait for first impressions before jumping on this game (and VR), but I'd lie if I said that trailer didn't look great. It seems a bit too intense for VR though. A headcrap jumping on me in VR seems heart-attack inducing
Let's 3D print a VR headset!Sadly, unlike copies of bits, HW has a non-negligible production cost. At least until we figure out replicators
That's true. I really don't need headcrabs jumping at me in VR.
Yeah, say what you want about the rest, but that's just sad.Extra content for Index owners

Now to hope others actually follow that example!
Which I know is a very long shot, but even if there's the smallest chance of pricing changing for the better for folks I'll be rooting for it.
I let all the doom and gloom around the Campo Santo twitter stuff overshadow the fact that the Firewatch Devs are working on a new Half-Life VR game. This is going to be great.

Good enough for its low-ish price.
Still €35 because of the ridiculous price at release
Horrible pricing here too, this discounted price is what the game should've cost initially. Oh well.Still €35 because of the ridiculous price at release
Valve should pack in a set of diapers with every Index kit because with antlions and headcrabs jumping at the player people will be shitting their pants.
I won't be able to play Alyx anytime soon but goddamn it's good to see Half-Life back again. Great trailer too!
I hate it when they put new icons with informations like discounts or reviews in them

For large scale games, roomscale movement is generally always additive to another movement method.
E.g. if you are in front of some shelf and want to check it out you can move around naturally by, well, moving. But if you need to cross a yard or run around in combat you use one of the other options (the game has 3: teleport, slide, direct stick movement).
You move with the analog stick to move around a game world just as in non VR games, nobody has a play room as big as City 17 or similar.
But if you have the space you can move room scale within your immediate surroundings and if not you don't have to, just use the stick for that too.
Full room scale movement without also analog stick or teleport or whatever on top is only in experimental games like Unseen Diplomacy and Tea for God.
Seated mode makes it so the camera height isn't depending on user height like normally but is preset, possibly with a crouch button for that case too.

There are several VR games that already allow for varied movement styles and setups. It's just different ways to interact with the game depending on preference and actual physical ability / space. You can usually mix and match, so for a room scale you can walk around and your character follows your movement within the game space, but you can also stop and use teleport / joystick move (and you usually have to since rooms are only so big and game worlds are huge). Room scale is great for exploring and interacting around a room in a game but never get you very far.
Sitting down or standing still in a small space (the latter is mostly my setup) you use whatever the game has set for joystick movement only yea, as far as "leg" movement. Hand movement is always tied to the controller motion regardless of which scale you are using.
That is one cool-ass looking game. Here's hoping VR takes off so I can actually afford it lol
Posted this in the wrong thread (EGS) by mistake (well, in my defense both games match EGS overall quality as a storefront).

Holy shit this looks even better than I imagined.
I've been playing HL2 EP1 and those godamn headcrabs literally make me flinch in front of my screen. I'm probably gonna die from a heart attack playing this in VR.

Valve made people talk about getting a VR heasets or how VR headsets work.
Im pretty sure that's part of Valves plan.
