I got a Quest 2 a while back and played around with it a bit. There were some entertaining games like "I expect you to die" and the first portion of "Lone Echo", but mostly they just felt like proof of concept demos and I quickly lost interest.

Is there anything actually made for VR and a fully fledged high quality game?

I love how Halflife: Alyx isn't even being mentioned.

Too scary lol. I got it with my index and never played. Really wish valve included a less scary switch in the settings, because it's one of the best made VR games.

Just can't do it. Not built for it.

I read some interview about how they had to "nerf" the headcrabs by making them latch on to your chest instead of actually your face because it was too intense for VR, haha

Loved the game!

I had no idea it would be so scary and played through it out of sheer will to enjoy the experience. I have no idea how I made it through.

Right? It’s literally bundled with one of the most popular headsets.

Though there are still plenty of indies that still exude quality and love from their developers. Things like Compound, Budget Cuts, Until You Fall, or Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades (if you’re a gun person) are all a bunch of fun.

Though there’s that Walking Dead game if you want something with more money behind it (and are less anxious than me).

Seriously haha, arguably the best VR game out there
