VR gaming: What are you playing?
Hey guys! First day on tilde and was wondering what VR Games are being played by our community. Feel free to share any games you might recommend or are enjoying!

Pavlov and Beat Saber are my two main loves right now. Beyond those two, Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope, Tilt Brush, Job Simulator, and Scanner Sombre are my VR mainstays.
I've been wanting to pick up Arizona Sunshine and Budget Cuts, but I've heard that the former is really short and the latter is a buggy mess, so I'm not too sure about them.
I've heard game saves on launch were a bit buggy for Budget Cuts, but I'm not sure if it's been fixed yet. Other than that it looks like a great game that I'm definitely excited to try once thats fixed.
How is Scanner Sombre? Is it a game that stays entertaining for more than a couple minutes?
It's a very... ambient experience. I played the standard non-VR version before getting my Vive, and it was good enough that I was willing to play it all the way through. It's a surprisingly good VR port, though. Doesn't feel "tacked on" the way Payday 2 does at ALL; The controls are smooth and intuitive, and if I hadn't known it was a VR port I would swear it was developed exclusively for VR.
Overall, it's an incredibly creepy atmospheric game and well worth the price if you're looking for a passive exploration game. I don't want to use the term "walking simulator" due to the connotations of that phrase, but that's pretty much exactly what it is. It's just a really damn good one.
Nothing.
The novelty wore off and I can't hardly be bothered to load any VR up. Prior to my loss of interest I did enjoy H3VR a lot.
Have you tried Archangel: Hellfire? They have a demo on their site that's at least an interesting start. There definitely has been a lack of quality looking games this year; even 2017 had some solid games.
WipeOut and Rez Infinite are my favourite games so far. But I am very much a console peasant and they are PSVR exclusives.
Oh, Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes is great fun if you have a few people you can play it with.
Recently I've been creating in AnimVR. Really creative program with lots of nice features. Definitely didn't take much effort for it to chug down my computer. There isn't much other VR Animation programs, so even though its a bit computer intensive, I've been having a good time just trying to work on my own animation skills.
Beat saber is the one game I think about and it motivates me to plug in my base stations to play it. Vivecraft and H3VR are also fun.
That's two people praising that game, guess it's time for me to give it a shot.
Unfortunately, i haven't played much because of the lack of linux support by oculus :/ but last time i played Project Cars and Echo VR (Robot recall is also pretty cool)
Not much lately. Multiplayer is the main thing that'll keep me in a game, and none of my friends have headsets yet. But my most played VR game would be Rec Room, by a mile.
H3VR is the one I've been playing a lot of recently, it has me feeling like a 9-year-old who's just come into the possession of a massive toybox.
