Title
Not a game changer, but still good
I was really hyped for Bonelab and thought it would be a lot different than Boneworks, but after finishing it I didn't notice much difference.

The new things added were more melee weapons and the addition of shotguns. Another cool thing was a body swapping tool with avatars that have different skill styles. You could change from a strong guy to a really fast one from the pull of a cord on your arm.

Vehicles were added but I don't think they work that well. I'm pretty strong when it comes to motion sickness, and the go kart scene made wanna vomit. It was also impossible to steer the kart, as the length of my arms didn't match with the game.

Besides that, everything else is the same. You've still got the annoying janky body movement when climbing where you get stuck on everything. Enemies are relatively the same just with different skins. I guess they added turrets too...wow.

I'd say this is still a solid VR game overall, but you're basically paying 40 bucks to play Boneworks for a second time, so just know what you are paying for.

    Yeah, it's telling that the negative reviews on Steam are well-articulated and the positive ones are all just saying "bone" and "boner" and "bone time"
    Might grab this if patches improve it and it gets more content but "Boneworks but with slightly more stuff that works slightly worse" isn't really something I want

    Yeah, can't say I was too blown away by this. I did appreciate the few quality of life additions from Boneworks (easier to climb since you can now grab ledges, press a button to eject empty gun cartridges, etc.) and still enjoyed the campaign levels that were like Boneworks. But the avatar training levels were really hit or miss. The moon base level in particular just felt like it was trolling the player with boring empty space and nothing to actually take advantage of the small avatar size. Dumb level that should've been heavily changed or cut entirely.

    Overall, it felt like a bad move to release a mod-reliant game where modding is integrated into the story... only to have an incomplete modding tool at launch and virtually nothing to mod with (wow, Duck Season avatars, how exciting). The surprise release date makes me wonder if they were pushed to get the game out before Facebook Connect on October 11.

    I guess pretty cool that they got this to run at all on Quest 2, but I predict a lot of non-PCVR owners will try this out after hearing all the acclaim over Boneworks, only to wonder what the fuss is about. Boneworks is just a significantly better game overall.

    idk whether to get this. there's really not many great games for the oculus, and bonelab is on sale at the moment, but it looks like a game that i'd get bored of pretty quickly.

    The game is lacking, but the mods make it so much better.
    Now with Fusion Multiplayer, I feel like Bonelab can lowkey be the GMOD of VR
