In "Important update (1.0.22.1)" they have censored the game. They didn't just add an option for sensitive people to skip disturbing scenes: they took away content from the game so that we do not get a choice. On top of that, they lied to us by previously saying that they were not going to do exactly this.

At the time of my writing this, there were 2,315 comments on the update post. Not one like. Not. One. Zero likes. Literally nobody likes this.

I notice that it isn't April 1st.

I really don't think that Social Justice zombies listen to reason. They eat brains: they don't use them.

My guess is that this isn't the same team as made the original game controlling things any more. They probably got infiltrated by Social Justice zombies and now the original devs are probably going to be looking for other work pretty soon.

But if there are any of the original team left with any degree of influence over SUPERHOT, that comment to like ratio of 2,315 to zero should tell you something.

A toggle to skip cutscenes for people who just want to get to the gameplay would have been fine. Censoring the game so that some passive aggressive pink haired land whale from the depths of Tumblr is going to tell us what content we can and cannot have is not OK.

We have to root out this subhuman cancer from our society. We need gatekeeping, social pressure and mockery: whatever it takes to keep Social Justice zombies out of any position of power or influence.

Here is what this review used to say until December 2021:
I recommend SUPERHOT VR because there aren't very many really great VR games out there, and SUPREHOT VR is definitely in the top five at least. There are a number of really cool moments in SUPERHOT VR.

However, players should be warned that there is also some really bad game design on display in SUPREHOT VR: things that other games solved back in 2D game design ages ago. One of the things that made Super Meat Boy work was that its design was very strict about keeping a super low iteration time for players so they wouldn't be afraid to try whatever they think of doing. If you mess up in Super Meat Boy, it's never a big deal: you can always start again right away with no waiting.

SUPERHOT VR does not have that feature. Some of the levels are very difficult and the game often requires you to repeat several levels before you can get another chance at the part that's giving you trouble.

That wouldn't be so bad if the enemies had randomized spawn points, weapons and behaviors so that beating them required actual thought each time. But they don't. They come at you from the same directions and act the same way every time. After a while, you'll be memorizing arm movements to repeat in order to get through the levels as quickly as possible in order to get another chance. Over and over. That part is not fun.

However, as I said at the beginning of this review, SUPERHOT VR is a big fish in a small pond. There aren't very many really top tier VR experiences out there and despite it's flaws, SUPERHOT VR is still better than most of its competition in the relatively small VR games market.
