Thanks man this is the type of feedback I was looking for. Sure people may say it looks great etc but knowing how fiddly it is to get right is important. This goes to show that my assumption of plug and play is pretty off the mark....
I mean, there are good games; it's just that if you don't like beat saber and beat saber clones or VR chat, your probably not going to get long-term use. There are more good games like Boneworks and Half-Life, but those only give 6-10 hours each, and while both are amazing experiences, you probably won't play them again
(though Alyx is getting lots of good custom campaigns so playtime may vary). Most single-player content is just ports of existing games or almost entirely narrative/puzzle-based.
A few other good games would be Until You Fall, Blade and sorcery, and Gorn, plus plenty of multiplayer games like onward and Pavlov if your into that.
There are at least ten games I can say are good, and everyone who loves video games should at least try, but the $300
(with Facebook spying on you and able to remotely disable the headset) to $600
(Microsoft) or $1K
(Index/Vive) price of entry plus game cost puts a damper on it. My recommendation would be to wait until we get more actual games
(though with quest focusing on Mobile tier garbage and Meta tainting the public perception of VR, its hard to say if we won't see something akin to the video game crash of 1983)
