Tie Fighter was extremely influential to my political outlook, thinking back on it. It essentially introduced my young mind to Realpolitik, while the jr. high PE/Social Studies teacher was teaching us history by making us memorize a (then) incomprehensible, whitewashed definition of Manifest Destiny, and lots of (also meaningless at the time) names and dates of various leaders and treaties, without explaining what any of it actually meant. Playing Tie Fighter's campaign taught me way more about history than the school textbook did.

It being easier to win in VR makes perfect sense to me because in space, you don't have many of the normal depth cues, so stereoscopic vision via VR becomes a much bigger advantage there than if you were playing, for example, a typical FPS.

It's great to hear another voice chime in on an appreciation of the Star Wars universe beyond the Skywalker saga. It's gotten stale and revisiting it among the many stories all culminating in Jedi narratives isn't helping.

I'm getting this game when I get a VR headset. Just like you Tie Fighter is my frame of reference. I'm glad the campaign is a bit longer. My problem is otherwise that all the production value in the cut scenes mean shorter campaigns. I'd much rather have text-based briefings like in Tie Fighter (I know they also had VA, but no animation) and longer campaigns. I mission editor would be a godsend.

Haha, I dusted of a Extreme 3D Pro I won in a contest years back for this and I do not regret it. All I really needed to tweak was the roll deadzone because I was basically in spin-to-win mode.
It was me. I was the one who said it was sparse in chat while he was riding his high during that stream. And he's not bullshitting. He was playing the game for _hours_ and he was wired as hell throughout the entire experience. I'd elaborate on what I meant, but I gotta get ready for work. UPDATE: Okay, so here's my Plague of Gripes! HEYO! I remember my X-Wing Collector's Edition offering three tours of duty with 12-14 missions in each, as well as additional six 'historical missions' EACH for the x-wing, a-wing and y-wing and some half dozen random 'bonus' missions...just 'cause. Meanwhile, Gorg's Tie Fighter gave him only half a dozen or so missions...for his _seven_ tours of duty - thirteen with the expansions - and there were just as many supplementary missions for him to chew on as well. Compare that to Squadron's fourteen missions split between both factions...yeah, I think I can safely consider that pretty durn sparse! Yeah, its a budget title and yeah, the originals didn't have mutiplayer at all, but these are pretty week justifications in my eyes. I mean, it's no accident that his review focuses so much on the _experience_ of playing the game rather than its _content_ or why he spent almost five minutes of it talking about a completely different game.

I am a game developer, and for fun I once recreated battle of Endor in VR, using Unity and a handful of premade 3d assets and speech taken directly from the film. You could fly all rebel fighter craft. Y-wing even had an ion cannon you controlled with your view. Well, It was actually too exhausting to play, with dozens of ships and the constant pew pew of Tie fighters. You could say it lacked polish. But I learned a lot from it, mostly, that all X-Wing simulators cheat by making the nose far shorter in fpv as otherwise it is constantly blocking a good portion of your view 😂

Something is wrong with youtube. I haven't seen a episode from George on my account in months. I thought he stopped.
Interesting that you got the feeling of intense immersion in a Tie fighter where your avatar uses two control sticks with both hands. It actually broke immersion for me. Also, the cockpit itself is quite empty and ugly. First time in an X-Wing cockpit was far more rewarding. Still not really sold on the game, good thing I got it for 25 bucks instead of 40.
This is an absolute ripper of a review. Thanks!!! I will probably get around to trying this game too, since i adored the Ace Combat 7 VR missions with a stick.

Can you swing the X-Wing around to hit enemies from behind like Poe did in THE LAST JEDI?
I'm surprised you like the characters so much, I found their dialogue utterly inane most of the time. Though I agree the narrowness of the story does help enjoy it more for some people.
I still haven't finished the single player and haven't played the multiplayer at all yet (waiting to finish the single player and for my friend to get his PS4 fixed) and I already feel like I got my money's worth. Playing it on PSVR with a HOTAS flight stick is amazing, one of the coolest gaming experiences I've ever had. I've been taking my time with the missions, limiting myself to one a day. I think I'm probably near the end of the campaign now, but I think I'll probably replay it on a higher difficulty. I just love gawking at the cockpits in VR, particularly the larger craft like the TIE Bomber, TIE Reaper, and U-Wing. The sense of place and scale is amazing. About the only thing I find myself wishing for is for someone to eventually make a PC mod that just imports all of the TIE Fighter missions, voice acting, etc. into the Squadrons' engine. Squadrons already has most of the important ships and models from TIE Fighter, even has the main cargo ships and space platforms. But yeah, if someone managed to port TIE Fighter into this engine I think it might be my favorite game of all time.

I loved this as a huge fan of all 3 of the games you mentioned. Now I really want to experience this in VR. Even using a controller I was delighted to play this some.
I played this game with the PlayStation VR & the Thrustmaster 4 stick was one the best experiences I had in gaming!
Oh we have very similar logos!
TIE Fighter didn't have multiplayer but X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter and X-Wing Alliance both have had multiplayer. Especially X-Wing Alliance had a awesome mission editor. For me Squadrons is a lot more arcadey and doesn't live up to its roots. Respawning in single player, unlimited ammo and hull repairs in space, make everything feel less consequential. The incredibly tiny maps with either asteroids or debris everywhe around you makes space feel like a busy mall rather than giving you the feeling of the endless void around you. Major logical inconsistencies like Y-Wings flying 125MGLT in formation while charging shields because - we all today apparently are easily bored toddlers with an detection span on 20 seconds so we apparently cannot fly towards a nav point for a couple of minutes through empty space. Sure, the graphics are nice and the VR is cool and all. But in comparison the old games felt like ARMA while this feels like Doom. And as a fan of the old games, especially X-Wing Alliance - I am pretty disappointed with Squadrons.
>Flying in space >using airbreaks Pick one.
So delighted to see you in an Index! But I didn't know you were a Wookie.
Hearing you talk of Tie Fighter, Squadrons and this forgotten genre is like hearing myself. Have you thought of trying DCS? Even without VR, it has that feeling of being 'there' you describe.
bro i was about to sleep then the start of the video happened
It's a good thing you got that flight stick so long ago because now those things are closer to 90 dollars :)
At 12:13 the "immersive sound design" is mentioned... I wonder what audio output setting George is using on his Index. I'm also using an Index and I find the separation and directionality of the audio severely lacking. Especially when it comes to the voices during the hangar sections. If I turn one ear to a character I do not hear the dialogue at all through the off-side speaker. Stereo, auto, 5.1, headphones... I don't hear any difference. Not to mention the incredibly low volume, for which I have to edit a config file before each session. I also find the graphics on the Index a bit fuzzy. Solid surfaces look fuzzy with lots of aliasing, especially during the hangar sections. I did not have this issue in Half-Life Alyx. And the skyboxes lack detail as well. The stars don't look bright enough and are way too large. I know the Index can do starry skies quite okay as I see a similar skybox every time in the Steam VR boot environment. Apart of that: yep, I agree. The game is a heck of a lot of fun and well worth the 40 bucks. Just a fun little space combat game. Like how we finally get to be a pilot in Star Wars spacecraft from one's own 1st person view and from the comfort of our own home. Feel what it's like to track Tie Fighters as an X-Wing pilot by turning your head and following them with your eyes. That top glass panel in some cockpits becomes incredibly valuable in VR. And the handling of that Tie Interceptor. Mmmm... :) Glorious!
Have you played Elite Dangerous George? If you want more fun times in VR Space, you'll probably like it.
I grabbed this but didn't play in vr. The gameplay of you flying past a star destroyer makes me think I really need to try it in thst
I want Endor DLC so bad. Easily slots into the story, could easily be a multi stage mission in SP, an epic fleet battle map, and multiple dogfight maps.
I've only briefly used VR, but I remember the revolution in combat flight sims in the mid-2000s when I started using head-tracking to control the camera instead of a hat switch.
I searched your older videos but I may have missed it-- have ya gotten into Elite: Dangerous? If you like this sort of gameplay, you may really enjoy Elite... I prefer Elite's flight model (though Squadrons is fun), and while it's missing a campaign and story it more than makes up for that with the scale and open-ness (in my opinion). It's also great in VR, it really changes the game entirely. I used to use the Logitech 3D Extreme Pro and I could bind everything I needed as long as I used TWO modifier buttons (Elite has a lotta bindings, it's more sim-y than Squadrons while still being pretty arcadey). Now I use a T16000 hotas, but your current flight stick is more than enough to try it out. Elite takes some time to learn, but for immersive VR spaceship flying it's awesome.
It was about 1 minute in where I realised the melody was specifically from TIE Fighter. For a moment there I thought Squadrons had gone and revamped the original music from the X-Wing games... now I'm super confused- did they do that? Or is that just the review music?
I have my system volume set to 16 and that fucking intro was STILL TOO FUCKING LOUD. So glad you had a moment of VR presence that you enjoyed. Aggravated that the video opens with one of the most unpleasant noises one can make.

There are 2 major things VR footage has that you don't notice/experience in actual VR: 1) Constant head jitter. You do it, but don't think you do. It's not noticeable in VR because it's just how you're normally looking around from that perspective. 2) The footage is usually from one eye. This causes all footage to appear off center. In game this is once again not how you're experiencing things. Essentially VR footage is like if you were seeing the game with one eye closed but never refocused what you were looking at.
How did you feel about the VR sickness aspect? I've been playing the game with a HOTAS and loving it, but have been apprehensive about trying it with my Vive due to how easily I've gotten motion sickness with past VR games.
George, I play VR and have little problem with it, but for other, you might have to look into some sort of "smoothing" solution so the VR capture doesn't come out as jittery. And also, how dare you make me want an EA game this much after I promised myself I wouldn't give them (or star wars for that matter) any money...

Haha. My guess is, the capture is jittery because the game was until last weeks update (there were weird frame doubling issues with anything hihger than 60 fps). Still performs rather poorly but at least it does not give me a piercing headache anymore.
Have you tried Ace Combat 7 in VR?
this makes me wanna break out my flight stick
Great in-depth content, on the price of video-games what is important to note is how many games the average consumer now owns compared to the 1990's. Games can stay relatively cheap whilst global income has increased because the large publishing companies tend to sell you not one game a year but multiple. Furthermore, the overall elasticity of video-game prices would also be relevant. Basing the development of income on the price of products which aren't incredibly elastic, like cars or houses, is not a 1 to 1 representation of total expandable income over time.
You should play Ace Combat, George.
