I wouldn't call it perfect. It's a brilliant first experience for things like docking which does feel mind blowing - true fantasty fulfillment type thing.
However, after that it's better as a non-VR game. It's very grindy with repetitive actions, lots of time spent in menus and then long waits either as travel time or for missions/trades to repopulate. It's also a game where you want to refer to external web tools for trade routes, navigation info, planning ship upgrades etc.
All of this means it's worst type of game for enduring long stints in a headset while nothing is happening. Most of the game is best suited to a small window on your desktop while you watch TV with a web browser and a drink.
