Why I regret buying Half-Life - Alyx

After seeing PewDiePie play it, he bought Half-Life: Alyx for £45, then regretted it after roughly 20 hours. The initial object-manipulation novelty faded; he found repetitive room-to-room shooting, trivial puzzles, enemies, and long loading screens tedious. Motion sickness after 40–50 minutes requires long breaks; cable tangling worsens it, leading to a 2/10 rating instead of 6/10.

Novelty-driven technology purchase becomes buyer’s remorse when physical discomfort prevents sustained use.
