Maybe that's the real future of VR? I enjoyed Half Life Alyx as it was a really polished feeling VR shooter but trying to move in that game was always a janky experience - I think VR exploration when things are peaceful is interesting and fun but, since you're never going to be able to freely navigate a scene by walking around alone it'll always be quite immersion breaking. I'd be more excited to see something like a mech warrior game with a navigable bridge than a COD style shooter - if you design the setting around having a fixed limited environment you can freely move around in in VR that you then move around in a larger environment... I think that's the sweet spot for VR for the foreseeable future.
