There is a lot of VR interactive
variety in @LondonStudioHQ's Blood and Truth, in addition to all the
gun fights. Many times I arrived at a locked door and had to get out
my lock picks and move them just right to set the pins. Other times I
opened my trusty kit to use a screwdriver, small shape charge, and
wire cutters to bypass an alarm. I had to climb hand over hand up
ladders, through air conditioning ductwork, or even swing monkey-bar
style in a few situations. At my safehouse, I could manually modify
my weapons and practice in my own shooting gallery, throw wadded up
paper balls in a basket, practice lockpicking, or light and smoke a
cigar (or vape, if that's your thing). There are also collectibles
throughout the game, and secret targets to shoot. Some scenes had me
riding shotgun in a car, and I shot at attackers on motorcycles or
thugs driving by in SUV's. My only complaint is that it is hard to
look down the scope of larger guns—I think a snap-to-position
feature might have been nice because sometimes the gun clipped when
too close to my face. Some people have complained about the lack of
freedom of movement being confined to certain cover choices, but I
felt it kept the game more focused on staying to cover and it kept
the pace moving along. Blood and Truth really mixes things up and
gave me a huge variety of things to do in VR, more than I can list
here. It all feels incredibly real, so much that I can't wait to jump
back into that world as soon as I can. Great graphics, sound, and
amazing gameplay. 5/5!
