Are there any good VR games yet?

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?

Project Wingman and Subnautica can both be played entirely in VR if you’re into dogfighting or the indescribable horrors of the deep, respectively

There is no way I could handle Subnautica in VR. I was scared enough playing normally.

I played the hell out of Subnautica a few years ago. I loved it, and it’s one of the few recent games I played up until the end, even though I spent 90% of my time just exploring and not worrying too much about the main quest.

That said, back then the VR experience for the game was considered pretty bad - like a pasted-on layer that was largely ignored by the devs. If that has changed, I might think about getting a headset.

Try the Submersed mod, it adds full motion controls!

I cannot wait to one day be able to play Subnautica in VR. Wanting it makes me feel psychotic though because that games scares the shit bejeezus right off my socks.
