There quite a few great VR titles. Some are great for people playing for the first time- some are essential titles to play later on when you're used to it because motion sickness isn't fun.
Also, don't say there's barely any VR games if 1. you don't even look, or 2. you only play one game and you don't want to leave that comfort zone. (Looking at a few people here
)
Here's my list:
Beat Saber - A great and very addictive VR music game! It'll cost you $30, but in my opinion this game just isn't worth that much WITHOUT all the available mods. With mods, the experience gets infinitely better.
Great for a first-timer.
Oculus, Steam, PSVR
Pistol Whip - Another amazing music game. I much prefer this game's vanilla soundtrack compared to Beat Saber. You shoot people to the beat!
Good for experienced players
Oculus, Steam
VRchat - Best social VR game. This is pretty much our version of the Oasis. You can be anything you want, and go anywhere you want with friends! Or you can go out in VR public and meet new people. There's limitless possibilities to what you can do.
Great for first-timers
Oculus, Steam
Rec Room - A social VR sports and activities game! Many call this game the "Wii Sports of VR" for the activities you can do. Meet and play with people all around the world, or just hang out with friends. You can play paint ball or laser tag, go on a quest, race people on a parkour course, explore thousands of player created rooms or make your own, and more!
Good for people with a bit of VR experience.
Oculus, Steam, PSVR, IOS, Xbox, Android
Richie's Plank Experience - This is the very first game I'd recommend. What is it? You'll have to see for yourself ;p
Good for first time, small chance that the first-timer may be traumatized after though... meh.
Oculus, Steam, PSVR
Job Simulator - Silly cartoony VR fun! If you haven't played Job Simulator, you haven't experienced one of the biggest VR classics ever. You don't want that in your reputation do ya?
Great for first-timers. If you get sick playing this, you might not wanna get into VR.
Oculus, Steam, PSVR
The Climb 1 & 2- Mountain climbing in VR! Scale building, mountains, and more in this realistic surreal VR experience. Heavy recommendation.
Great for first-timers
Oculus
Lone Echo - Hands down one of the best VR games there is. An amazing story about you and your crew out in space. I can't stress enough how necessary this is.
Great for first timers, this game uses a unique movement system that both increases immersion, and makes the game near impossible to get motion sick in.
Oculus
Moss - Beautiful, relaxing puzzle game. Join Quill, and help her in her journey through the world of Moss! This game is a masterpiece, and you will not regret buying it.
Good for beginners, but I'd suggest trying one or two other games first.
Oculus, Steam, PSVR
Superhot VR - Time moves as fast as you move! This VR fighting game is a must-have, and you will not regret it.
Great for first-timers
Oculus, Steam, PSVR
Robo Recall - Basically the most fun way to beat up/shoot/trash robots
Great for first-timers
Oculus
I Expect You To Die 1 & 2- Some of the best puzzle VR games there is. They're an escape room-style series, in which you play as a spy in the 1900s.
Great for beginners
Steam, Oculus, PSVR
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR - Need I say more? Even if you've already played Skyrim, it's worth it to replay the game because it is amazing in VR. (Requires a few mods for it to be good because the devs were kinda lazy but still)
Not good for inexperienced players.
Steam (Works with Oculus headsets)
The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinner - A zombie survival game that's worth playing? Unheard of nowadays, but this somehow is one! One of the best VR horror and survival games, with a captivating story.
Steam, Oculus, PSVR
Boneworks - An absolute essential above all others. If you like Half Life... or even if you don't, you're very likely to fall in love with it! (Avoid all spoilers)
WARNING: This is one of the most intense VR games there is, with absolutely no anti-motion sickness measures, to have the best possible immersion.
Oculus, Steam
And finally:
Half Life: Alyx - This game... is a MASTERPIECE. The environments, the story, everything! This game is worth every cent.
Not really the best idea for first-timers.
Steam
Honorable mentions:
Baby Hands
Blade and Sorcery
Pavlov VR
No Man's Sky VR
Vacation Simulator
Deisim
Duck Season
And that is my list as of 9/21/2021. I tried to list only one or two games per genre, otherwise this would have been a bit longer. About the short descriptions, it was just to save space. If any of these interest you, they're very easy to find on google. Or the storefronts they're listed on.
Don't pirate Quest 2 games, it's extremely risky. For Oculus users, SteamVR does have better performance and latency.
Aaand that's all for today :3
