I have to be honest: Vive (which is the most advanced consumer VR tech available right now) is about the same. My mate and I bought a VR setup (we didn't have a PC before this) around Christmas of last year.
It's mostly a lot of things that feel like demos. Nothing that I could see myself losing hours into, like skyrim[1].
The one game that feels really close is Arizona Sunshine. It is a zombie fighting game, and there is a minigame on it called "horde mode", where progressively more zombies come at you from all directions and you have to shoot them.
Essentially that game is a really good[2] combat simulator.
That said, I don't regret the purchase at all. VR is an incredible gift to share with people.
[1]Time enjoyed isn't time lost. Skyrim is a beautiful world to explore.
[2]Arizona Sunshine feels like you are actually developing a shooting skill while you are using it. Not exactly the skill that I would have set out to develop, but definitely interesting.
- cagenut 10y agoIf you like the shooting in AS, join us in Rec Room playing paintball. Its simple enough mechanics and free so it has the largest community with people always playing.
- friedman23 10y agoThe demos can be so compelling sometimes that they make me believe in VR as a product. The content needs to catch up however. I think when Fallout 4 VR is released is when VR will begin to be worth the cost of entry.
