It may sound stupid, but I kinda regret having bought it during a sale (because imo I should've payed more!).
I'm having a blast with this game. I really feared that it was another "wiggle your hand and slash every enemy" sort of game... but it is NOT. Fighting is way more fun and also the sheer amount of different activities and possibilities is just great. Some things were simply implemented for fun (like feeding the dog or even giving it voice commands such as "sit" and "roll), and some seem fun at first, but actually have an effect. Like using the grind stone and sharpening your sword for which you will get a +4 damage bonus!
This game has SO many great ideas and mechanics in it, it is ridiculous! And most of those even work from the get go without glitching into nirvana like a lot of other games. A few years back, I already said I am convinced that in the not so distant future we could not just select our dialogue options, but actually SAY what we want to say. And here we are! And also in a VR game! Ok, sometimes voice recognition doesn't work so well, but I actually think that is the fault of poor, sucky Windows.
Guys, please keep making games like this!!

Played on Quest 3, and everything worked perfectly through Virtual Desktop.
I only checked out Shadow Legend because it’s from the same dev as Arken Age, and it kinda feels like a predecessor to that game. It’s pretty short, clocking in at about five hours to 100% it without rushing, but I still highly recommend it. It’s short, but sweet! And if you end up liking it, Arken Age is the natural next step. Same vibe, just better in pretty much every way.
A few cons: The combat wasn’t so great for me, and it honestly felt kind of tacked on, like something they added late in development just to have that checkmark. It works, it’s just not a selling point for me. The game’s also pretty linear, and once you move on, you can't go back to earlier areas (though there is a level select after you've finished the game). It doesn’t really feel like a full RPG, but more like a bunch of ideas the devs wanted to try out before they really found their groove with Arken Age.
That said, I still had a good time just wandering around, finding hidden stuff, and doing the light platforming and puzzles. The exploration side of things is definitely where the game shines for me, and it’s what kept me engaged the whole way through.
Score: A solid 7 out of 10.

Any VR users looking for an RPG to play, Shadow Legend VR is very solid so far highly recommend, (If you get motion sickness from VR its probably not right for you) It has a good balance of puzzles, riddles and action combat. I got it for under $7. You get to pet a horse and smoke a pike, honestly just for the fixation of smoking without actually smoking its worth it

the Combat feels kinda weak, but you do get to pet and feed a dog, and throw a stick for the dog too, so its not all bad

So far so good. Exploration for runes, gems and Gold coins. get's you searching all over the place, high and low including climbing. Combat is ok so far. block their attacks and chop their arms off and then the head. cooking foods and making potion to regain health. pet your dog, feed the horse a carrot. voice acting is nice. I haven't left the courtyard yet.

It's short and sweet - a bunch of fun mechanics bundled into a classic fantasy story line.
Good fun, but a little too short. Get it on sale.
