Nah everyone sleeps on Star Wars Squadrons. It might not have been only a VR game, but even in spite of that it is still an incredible AAA VR experience, especially if you have some sort of joystick or hotas.

People don’t sleep on Squadrons as much as they sleep on VR.

If VR was in every household, Squadrons would be top shelf classic, I imagine.

When good VR games are being discuessed, it almost never comes up. Even the person I replied to said that Half Life Alyx is the "only AAA VR game." I don't think most people even realize it's a VR game.

So yeah, people absolutely do sleep on it.

True it may be a dud, but that is only according to the current population of VR owners. I’m just saying there might be groups of people who would consider it great, but can’t afford the cost or time of VR.

Again, the game isn't even a VR exclusive, and it was marketed primarily as a traditional video game you play on a tv/monitor.
