Probably Pavlov it’s basically just CoD multiplayer, plus a less janky Gary’s Mod, in VR. I’ve just check my stats and I have months worth of play time. It’s also a hell of a workout.
The trailers on the steam page don’t really do it justice. It’s mostly about the community.
If you’re into racing there’s also Gran Turismo, I’m pretty sure Euro truck / American truck simulator also supports VR, as of course does Elite Dangerous and if you’re prepared to buy into it Star Citizen.
There’s also loads and loads of indie games but I don’t really know about those because my VR experience has been exclusively PlayStation limited, where those titles are not available. But I do know that ultra wings is extremely good because I’ve played it on a friend’s headset.
I normally wouldn’t say I was particularly interested in the VR chat style community playroom thing either but I had a lot of fun with Rec Room which is essentially the same thing but is available on PlayStation. The problem with those games is they tend to have a lot of kids in them who shouldn’t really be in there since most of those games are 18 plus. But I take the view that if they’re in there, then they’re fair play, and you can just shoot them if they’re being annoying.
Oh and there’s a dungeons and dragons simulator which is very good. If you’re into dungeons and dragons. Oh and loads of poker games.
Sorry this is a bit rambly, I just keep thinking of titles I’ve played over the years.
The thing about VR games is they don’t tend to get huge advertising budgets because it’s still quite a niche market so it looks like there isn’t really a lot of options. But if you actually have a look on the VR page there’s loads. There’s even quite a good VR MMO who’s name I can’t quite remember, but that’s quite good, if kind of dated looking.

One of the lesser known applications for VR is for seated simulation type games. I personally have spent hundreds of hours playing games like Elite Dangerous, Microsoft Flight Simulator, and a few racing titles in VR. The sense of presence from VR makes them far more immersive and actually improves situational awareness.
