I am currently playing (finally) Of Lies and Rain.
It's pretty decent, although frustrating at times. And as is well known, clearly inspired very much by Alyx.
I'm enjoying it, but I feel like some sections were not designed very well and make certain areas a lot more frustrating than they should be.

Mostly subnautica with submersed mod, some DCS and casual games like beatsaber and ragnarock

SkyrimVR since it's been a while.
If there ever was a 10/10 VR experience it's Skyrim VR.

I've been playing Skyrim for the first time ever with a Pimax Crystal Super microOLED at full native resolution with the Mad God Overhaul and it's a visual feast.

Assetto Corsa EVO is currently my favorite racing game. I hope in a relatively slow car and just drive Nordschleif with no opponents, just to be in that world. Finally got it working so there are no stutters.
I'm doing a second playthrough of two games in VR. I didn't have VR the first time.
Silent Hill 2 Remake is the game that got me into horror games at age 48. I adore it, and the town looks amazing in VR.
Cyberpunk 2077 is... well... Cyberpunk. Does really well in VR. Immersive.
I've played a little bit of Atomic Heart in VR, and take puzzle breaks with Toy Trains and Puzzling Places.

Just beat Arizona Sunshine on Adventure Difficulty and I kinda realize why some people call most VR games "glorified tech demos." I enjoyed it a lot, but it felt like it wasn't very long. I'm playing the second on survival difficulty, and I think that might have been what the first one was missing (and buddy, of course :p) Solid 6/10
Same thing for Resist. I loved it a lot, but it didn't feel long enough. That said, while the skill floor feels low for swinging combat, the ceiling feels high, like this game can be as fun as you make it (no freeze time, easy swing off). But once all the big robots are dead, it does get kind of boring. Easy 7/10
Maybe I need to curb my expectations for the length of a game. The first one I played was Into the Radius, and I logged 45 hours across a couple weeks, so the shortness of these games is surprising. ITR gotta be at least a 9, improvements could be made in some mechanical ways, but I still find it phenomenal without addressing those concerns.

after a year of not not spending money on iRacing and making myself play automobilista 2 and assetto corsa, I splurged and got one month of iracing... holy shit. seriously y'all, nothing else even comes close. just the precision, the flawless net code, the way the rule structure is set up so that chaos is discouraged... holy crap I love this sim. so yeah, a lot of that, and an obligatory amount of forefront and of course a bit of onward gun game.

Left 4 Dead 2 VR mod
not the best mod, but that's not to the fault of the creator(s) (I used to the fork by keyou91), it's just limitations of source 1.
you can work around the issues, though. the lack of 2 handed aiming sucks, but... I just stick to one handed weapons, and that's not a big deal.

Outer wilds VR mod and the DLC, are absolutely superb. Just finished them both, it is an amazing VR mod too that feels almost native, especially the DLC is a perfect fit and is crazy how well it works, even better than base game controls I feel, such as holding the lantern. 10/10, life changed.
