Getting in the VR game, ordered my Rift S and should arrive tomorrow.

I want to play myself, obviously, as well as my 6 year old daughter wants to play.

Please recommend any games that are good. From VR-specific games (mini games like Job simulator?), as well as tripple A games which have VR support (like Skyrim) as well as games for kids.

I'm really clueless when it comes to VR games and while I do my own research now, I thought it'd be easy if you guys just toss out some titles that I should look up. Yar releases are preferred but not a must.

Thanks guys! Smile

Thae ones I have and can fully recommend.

Beat Saber - Guitar Hero VR basically. Make sure you read up on modding it. If you don't like the default songs, you won't find much enjoyment without importing stuff you like. Sadly, no auto-level-generation like in AudioSurf, so the song-selection is up to what the modders chose to make a level for.

Subnautica - You don't really appreciate the sheer scale of things until you play in VR. Swimming next to a reefback is a defining moment in my history of gaming, and I started gaming in the early 90s (late 80s if we count hammering the keyboard on an old Enterprise console).

Elite Dangerous - kinda a no-brainer. Makes a great looking game jaw dropping. Really wish they'd make it fully touch-controller compatible.

Gorn - Sadistic Murderous Psycho Simulator 2019

Robo Recall - Great shooter, takes me back to the old arcade lightgun days.

SuperHot VR - Amazing shooter. The time-slowdown mechanics fit great with VR.

The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

Skyrim VR - even in vanilla state, with not-brilliant controls and the usual slightly irritating UI - and the lack of a body - is still ridiculously stunning in VR when you first see a dragon up close and personal.

Magic is also SO much better in VR. I would say it's one of the best experiences in VR currently.

Alright, Beat Saber is much fun and a workout on its own. Wink
My kid likes Ballista and I also got Arizona Sunshine but I still need to train my VR legs before I try that again. Smile

VR porn in 3d is where it's really at! Very Happy Well worth the purchase! Very Happy Very Happy

I will try some of the other suggestions as time goes on, I found yar releases to rarely work for some reason and if I have to buy all games, I can't get them all at once.

Thanks again for all the suggestions though. Some good stuff there, I just hope I don't run out of content too quickly.

No ethernet, nor wireless needed, unless your keeping up with Facebook at the same time?

just so you know, the VRIK mod adds a IK simulated body for VR and it works fairly well Very Happy

Oh yes, I have the game fully modded up Very Happy I just didn't want to confuse things by adding things that don't always work as expected...

...anyway he's selling it because VR is still a gimmick apparently Laughing

Not selling, exchanging it for the Quest because it will be a better fit for my requirements. As far as I can tell, I still get to enjoy most of the great games as there is hardly anything worth while on the PC. At least none of which I would want to play/replay again.

Well I've enjoyed this thread. I bought a cv1 rift last week for $150 with 3 sensors and I'm really enjoying it. I'm sure the rift S is a "little" better, but for the price it was hard to turn down. Thanks again for the recommendations!
