VR Games are hard... VR spectatorship, marketing, and other applications are generally much closer to be really good. I would be surprised if games led the way for VR to be honest, despite the investment in that direction.

As a gamer with a VR headset, I must admit that I pretty much never play VR games anymore.
VR conferences/chats are where it's at. Multiplayers experiences are awesome. VR movies are also awesome. VR porn is also one hell of a huge market.
The games? ... meh. I think it's too real for me and I'm lazy in real life. I love playing Minecraft on a 2d screen. In Minecraft VR, I build a house and simply lounge around until I'm bored then switch to a VR living room app and watch a movie on a huge screen instead.
The only games I play (and it's very rarely) are plane and car simulators.
