Eleven Table Tennis

Disclaimer: I played this on the Oculus Quest 2 over AirLink, which I understand in the game description is advised against due to input lag. However, input lag was not my problem. In fact, I felt like it played great in that aspect. Very responsive, and the feel of the physics in the game are pretty good when you think about all the physics that are a part of table tennis and the nuances of trying to replicate that in VR. Nonetheless, it just doesn't compete with the real thing. Anyone who plays table tennis at a slightly higher than casual capacity will immediately encounter limitations of what you can do. I'm not a professional player by any means, but I have played competitively with friends and some large groups. Enough so that I own my own blade and high grade balls to play with when I see the opportunity. I have an unorthodox way of holding the blade (and I've seen many players who all have their own unique grip), and while I was able to customize the position of the virtual paddle pretty accurately to my default stance, trying to switch between fronthand and backhand is basically impossible for me. The small adjustments to posture and grip are just almost impossible to replicate. I also can't perform a rather simple (but fast) serve that I'm known for in my friends circle because I think the tracking can't quite pick up the small hand gestures for it. Ultimately, if I wanted to play this very casually where I gently hit the ball back and forth with a friend to kill some time, this would be great. But I'm a competitive player and I felt nothing but restricted when trying to play this game. I can definitely see it being fun for many casual players, but if you want to get serious, just gather some friends and go find a table somewhere to play.
