Yep story line is there but it's not finished. What is neat to fans of the original forest was the scheduled updates for added content...it's back in Son's of the Forest. If you like "building and survival games" it will take a long time for Son's to get stake ..at least in my opinion...The Forest is 9 years old and up until release date for Son's I was still playing it. No VR...they added VR to the first Forest game...made it even more creepy. Have a good one!!!
