The author failes to mention that some of the Original creators went on and made Overload, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overload_(video_game), a modern descent version. It even supports vr (which is awesome). A bit lazy journalism tbh

You made me buy this game, and I'm now sitting with my steam deck enjoying a new descent game. Thank you. I've finished the first few levels, and it's exactly like descent in many ways with qol upgrades.

I love this ☺️, I hope you have as much fun with it as I had. If you get the chance, try it in VR too. it is one of the most enjoyable games in VR that I've played!

If AMD decides to update the drivers so my rift S isn't just showing greens, I will. I'm not a fan of downgrading drivers just to play VR.
