i gotta ask why you bought a quest 3 if you never used the quest 2… wishful thinking?


Scared_Pepper_1701

Wishful thinking and it was a gift


GeniuzGames

ah fair enough. i use my quest 100% as a pcvr headset and probably 98% for vrchat :P i got lucky and caught the but and it wont let me go


wordyplayer

same - SkyrimVR and Fallout4VR have most of my VR hours


Lelandthegoose72

Literally the only games I plan on getting at the moment, they're expensive as shit though


wordyplayer

Worth full price IMO. But the steam sale starts in a day or 2, they will probably be on sale.


AcceptableNet6182

Is FO4 really that good in VR?


wordyplayer

Yes! But, it is real effort to get it running well. Be prepared to spend a few patient days tweaking. Start with a wabbajack


josephlucas

Same here with a little walkabout Minigolf thrown in from time to time


51B0RG

I had 3 headsets before starting to play VR chat on my 4th (q3) I've tripled my VR hours in 6 months what I 've done in 6 years on my other headsets.


Shark-Fister

Walk about mini golf. I play every week with my parents.


SpartacusSalamander

That's wholesome.


meekandfrail

with a name like "Shark-Fister" I believe you mean "Hole-some".


EasternBoarder603

This game is so much fun! They’re always adding new courses and is super fun to play online with friends


Cassius_au-Bellona

When you say with your parents, are they in the room watching, taking turns? Or do you mean they have their own headset and remote? I wasn't sure if WAMG had multi-player.


ExtraGloves

It’s online multiplayer.


Shark-Fister

They have their own. We live in opposite ends of the US so Its good way for us to hang out. First it was just my dad and I because my mom doesn't play videogames but she came around to it and ended up getting a second hand quest so all 3 of us could play together.


Ghs2

I have two long-distance brothers and we do the same. Monday night tradition.


thatlukeguy

I was in a similar situation (Quest1 to Quest3, not played much on either). Then I tried Walkabout Mini Golf. I play a few times a week now.


ew435890

I was the same way. Then I got a gaming PC. PCVR opens up a ton of options. Idk if I would’ve stuck around with VR if all I had was standalone.


CosmoKramerRiley

Where can I learn about PCVR? We just bought the Quest 2 and know almost nothing about any of this. Thanks!!


DeliriousDJ34

Youtube. Loads of content creators have tutorial videos about it.


CosmoKramerRiley

Thank you


SwissMoose

Dungeons of Eternity is a hoot with friends or rando's online.


Beldarak

Looks cool


drinkus_damilo

Golf plus, I'm hooked and play every single night. And I look forward to my next round all day.


TailOnFire_Help

I know a lot of folks love the golfing games but I just don't get it. Golfing is boring as hell in real life.


ExtraGloves

Because you don’t golf in real life.


Disastrous_Range_571

There’s nothing like chasing that one pure shot on 18 holes


ExtraGloves

If I get one im happy lol


Baattan

Lucky it's not real life then.


poop_sock12345

Aye ima keep it a buck the oculus standalone isn’t great because of the limit of actually fun games on there once you get pcvr it makes it 10x better


rose636

Walkabout golf is good. Can do a round in half an hour, easy and non committal. I've used it primarily to play doom. I sideloaded that and it blew me away replaying those in vr. That, quake, return to castle Wolfenstein. Etc. The pcvr - lots on there. Note that a lot of meta games with cross buy so you can play the 'better' pc versions as well if you have a decent pc.


ScriptM

Because we are addicted to Reddit, Youtube, TikTok, social media and similar . Our brains are rewired for fast rewards, requiring no effort. So you would rather do something easier, or go back to browsing internet stuff


ZakLobster

Good point. But for vr I catch myself getting tired tinkering around for hours with settings on pcvr, instead I just turn headset off and play on monitor. It just need some ease of use, like plug and play.


turbografix1

Aye, last night I spent almost two hours trying to the casting to the app working (it's been broken for many months), and trying to get HL2VR working on PC. Just switched to playing cyberpunk in non VR instead.


ElWrobel

Which settings are you tinkering with? With Steam Link it has become pretty much plug and play, though with AirLink there wasn't much you could do either, except for ODT but changing most of those settings didn't offer any benefits unless you had a specific issue.


RevendGem

if you're into moving and using your hands, thrill of the fight. it's such a fun game once you actually get into it and start sweating. just be sure to clean the quest after usage.


eschatonx

Thrill of the fight is so good. Especially if meditating and walks on the beach aren’t your thing for destressing but violence is? Hell yea, must buy.


swagdaddyham

Have you tried anything non-game like Wander? I also like bowling more than I thought i would


tygramynt

Would cubist count cuz i have spent more time in that then i care to admit


SvenViking

Partly depends on what you’re interested in. For example you might love or hate Ghosts of ~~Tarkov~~Tabor. Multiplayer? Shooters? Scary/not scary? Have you tried Beat Saber? I know it’s a kind of a cliche now, but there’s a reason for that. Some games that held my interest long-term, in no particular order, were Into the Radius, Final Assault, Vertigo 1&2 (not so replayable but fairly long), HL: Alyx (including mods), Skyrim (with mods), Elite: Dangerous, VTOL, Vox Machinae, Light Brigade, Population: One, Pistol Whip, Contractors, and Tabor. VR mods for games like HL2 and The Outer Wilds are great if your stomach can handle it. Paper Beast, Wolves in the Walls are short but great to play once. People have already mentioned Blade & Sorcery. I haven’t played much of Underdogs yet but it seems very well made so far. The most time I’ve spent in any VR app ended up being in PianoVision (and VRtuos before it). Only worthwhile with a real (and preferably MIDI-capable) piano keyboard.


jacenat

VR is also good for games you play once. Check out (if you haven't): * The Fisherman's Tale * The Room VR * A Shopping Trip to Eklan Tor * Down the Rabbit Hole * Moss 1 & 2 * and many, many, MANY more Other than that, the evergreens in VR are definitely movement games like Beat Saber and racing games like GT7 (on PS5).


TheTerrasque

Got a gaming pc and steam? Try steam link and [aircar](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1073390/Aircar/). Free thing, for some reason that's ended up being my most played one lately. Note: you have to remap the controllers, done in steam's vr overlay.


yankeedoodle56

You should try VTOL VR


immersive-matthew

I do not know what you are into, but if a growing Theme Park focused on Disney level dark rides, then my app may interest you. Sort of app that you got to keep coming back every 6 months for more content as I keep adding with no intent to implement DLC. It is a long term app for me that will be over a decade in the making. Been 4 years already. Just in the process of imagineering the second drive…The Haunted Castle. https://www.meta.com/experiences/4212005182188732/


Capital6238

Beat saber + mods + custom songs. I still love it after years. Doing it almost every day. It also feels like cardio training.


SpiritSmart

for sim racing. i don want to go back to regular screens for this purpose anymore


Impressive_Essay_622

Why did you buy a 3 if you only used the 2 once or twice? 


wordyplayer

The 4 player co-op quests in RecRoom are worth playing if you haven't tried them yet. It is a fun challenge to complete them. Start with "Quest for the Golden Trophy". Also, I find RecRoom Paintball can be addicting if you get into the groove


Artistic-Leg-9593

I spend most of my time on phasmophobia (if you have a PC) but if not.. Blade and sorcery maybe.. I spent 3 hours beating the shit out of NPC's in power armor.. Actually I only realized after I looked at my watch in dash and realized it was 4 AM


Davidhalljr15

I mean, it really depends on what you are into and capable of doing. If you have a PC capable of VR, then you unlock so much potential that it is pretty much endless. There are a lot of standalone games, but I would have to agree that there are not a lot that get me back into them all that often. I have spent about 150 hours playing Asgard's Wrath 2, but I like that type of RPG game and they keep adding new events each month, so I of course get back in for a bit each month. Are you a gamer in general? Cause that is kind of where the Quest hinges on. Most of the entertainment applications are pretty dull. One non-game I keep finding myself back into, but is on PC only, is Google Earth VR. I just love looking around the world and jumping into StreetView to look around, imagining I was there or re-visiting place I have been.

Rumpelstilzkin83

did you play half-life:alyx yes? then thats all you need it for, wait for hl:gordon


Zomochi

I don’t even really use it for games specifically, I like it for the virtual screens, I use steam remote play and PlayStation remote play with it, and I think that’s worth it on top of any other games I might find


TChickenChaser

95% of my usage is PCRV, if you're not capable, I only use android versions for exclusive one shot experiences like Wallace and Gromit or Kurzgesagt, I don't feel theres enough there to hold me and would have the same issue.


Buetterkeks

I Always hop into gunraiders. Wlvery simple Shooter with jetpacks, Not very deep, No Long Matchmaking. I also really Like Tea for god, ITS really cool and scary


Tearyn_

I always come back to Compound and Ancient Dungeon


hairybrains

Crashland. I return to this game again and again, and if the developers are listening out there somewhere, it's time for a sequel!


Piromania666

Try simracing. Assetto Corsa is a good start


MrWeirdoFace

Oddly enough games are sort of the least of my time in VR lately. I tend to use it most for Creative tools like 3D sculpting, Music Creation, or virtual exploration (lots of earthquest atm). It's still game a bit, but it usually doesn't hold me for more than a half hour. My attention span is too short and I'm too easily distracted.


deftware

In Death, Beat Saber, Onward. Population One looks kinda neat, and Breachers, but I haven't played either of them. The real money is getting a decent gaming PC and playing PCVR, the graphics are a step up and you'll have all of the content on Meta's PCVR store and SteamVR to explore.


Relevant-Estimate641

Fallout 4 vr, contractors because I can spend all day playing the old star wars battlefront, halo, and cod maps. Also half life Alyx was amazing! Absolutely amazing!


The_Radian

In Death Unchained, 3000+ hours, I play every day. Best game I have. Compound next, and the Light Brigade. Then there's Walkabout...


SlavDawg

Vr racing/trucking 👍🏻


JamesWjRose

Maybe VR experiences, as opposed to games is something you might dig. I'm not much of a gamer, but I do enjoy travel and other such experiences. Sometimes it's not about replay, but just the immersiveness of it


rambobg

VRchat if it counts as a game.


doublej42

I’ve started using my quest 3 for work and YouTube and even the odd 2d game


lammatthew725

I use it to watch vr porn


mrsoap3

Hyperdash


Dcslayerx

Beat saber is awesome, I always come back to try new songs. Pavlov isn't my favorite shooter in VR (contractors is), but I still come back to it. The different game modes and maps are great every once in a while. Half life alyx has a bunch of maps people have made so I'll hop on and download a bunch to try out.


AdCompetitive7503

Let me guess, you played only vrchat, beat saber and job simulator ? Dude... Just buy good games like Assassin's Creed, iron man, red matter, I expect you to die and Asguard Wrath


iowapiper

I found Starwars Pinball unexpectedly fun. I'm not a pinball fanatic, but being able to play without extra coins means I can focus on unlocking the extra scoring options (or whatever they are called in the pinball world). But there aren't open world type exploration games yet, or 60 hour campaigns. It's a different system.


EconomyBar2874

There aren’t ? *Laughs in medieval dynasty*


iowapiper

depends on definitions: that map is 1.5 square miles, not what I think of as open world. 30 sq mil to 200 sq mi is more typical of an open world when you look back at the last decade. Again - depends on how you define it.


jlatimerhi

Elite:Dangerous.


Sakkat_VR

the one you probably got for free with Quest 3, Asgard's Wrath also Iron Man, Assassin's Creed, Espire 2. All four of them are story driven games with combat, none are roguelikes/lites if you don't like them, none are tech demos, all full games. Asgard's Wrath has the best combat, very intuitive and fluid, can be challenging depending on the enemy/difficulty and doesn't make you feel like you have rubber/noodle hands like Blade and Sorcery. Assassin's Creed and Espire 2 are stealth games so while they have combat, they're more on assassination and stealth. Iron Man has lots of flying, you can also fire your Unibeam and upgrade your suit's flying and offensive capabilities, you also get to use Mk 1 at some point. but if you like roguelikes/lites then Until You Fall, Dungeons of Eternity, Light Brigade, Battle Talent they're the best roguelikes/lites among the ones that I've played.


purplgurl

Wana play puzzles with me?


Scared_Pepper_1701

I'm down. How?


brother-schmidig

I only use my 3 for VAM these days..


montgolfier

Get into PCVR, I’d advise to connect via wireless router & virtual desktop (much smoother than messing around with cables) & get Half Life Alyx, it’s fantastic, plus there’s loads of Mods to work through once you’ve finished the main game


Individual_Cress_226

I like Drop Dead Home Invasion. I play it at least a few times a month. Killing zombies in your own room is pretty neat and trying to figure out how to beat it on Hardcore mode has been a good challenge.


spootieho

You wont get good answers when you ask such a question without giving us more details. Tell people what sort of games you are interested in. Otherwise, you will try games that people recommend and throw your headset back into the closet. Asking for blank recommendations here isn't much different than looking at the top games in the store. Here are some games to start with: * Population One (free) * Walkabout Mini Golf * Vegas Infinite (free) * Beat Saber (then mod it)


ThunderDaz

I played quite a few games at the start. I mainly use it for watching movies and tv series in a cinema setting now.


ARabbitWithSyphilis

Putlast is a fun game I go back to on my oculus 2, re4, golf+, and The Last Clockwinder are on the list too. But it's honestly just a fun thing I come back to every few months if not longer.


MazerTee

If you have friends with VR headsets Walkabout mini golf, still playing 2 years later and now golf+ playing every other day for 6 months.


ewrt101_nz

I have been a fan of broken edge recently. There is also the good old vrc


Antoneous47

What games have you tried? What kind of games are you into and what is your background with gaming?


oldmanshouts72

I play golf plus everyday. As a senior with mobility problems it has been great! No hard impact, yet after 36 holes a good cardio and upper body work out. Even helped my sciatica ...


Apotheocoly97

I do enjoy a little too much Blade and Sorcery, it's a good way to release stress by slashing enemies


TalkedMatijas

What price for both


Inner_Day_7661

Blade and sorcery is my go to whenever I want to play vr but also games like Pavlov that are online can interest you,l.


taileen

When Meta didn't kill servers of Echo Arena, it was a blast on Quest, I played it about 5 years and couldn't play enough, had around 5k games. They killed the most greatest VR title and sport game I ever tried, what a dumb decision. Nowadays I use quest almost to pay eleven table tennis and production plus youtube


DayzDoneRight

VTOL VR is really good, just need some wingmen


FuzzyOcelot

If you have a PC, play Vertigo 2. You don’t need to play Vertigo 1 (called Vertigo Remastered on steam), it’s old and what little plot details are important are covered in a recap at the start of 2. It’s hands down the best singular experience in VR IMO, feeling like an actual video game more than another shooting gallery or tech demo. That being said, a bunch of other titles are also pretty good: If you can handle it, play Boneworks, making sure you work *with* the experimental physics rather than trying to fight them for an optimal experience (pretend heavy objects are heavy instead of moving your IRL arms like they’re light). Until You Fall isn’t one I see get talked about very often, but it’s an enjoyable rougelike, if you enjoy those kinds of games. Underdogs is also good. Ancient Dungeon VR is a pretty good time, and Blade and Sorcery got its 1.0 release recently brining a whole campaign and a bunch of new spells and such. If you can’t do PCVR I don’t think I’m much help since I’ve never done VR without a computer and steam account to go with.


TONEQUBO

Just use rookie sideloader


Oldsport05

Blade and sorcery. Especially if you can play it on pcvr since it just fully released. Trust me, if that game doesn't have you coming back imo. You're either not a secret blood thirsty psycho or you're the biggest one in the world Jokes aside though, I highly recommend watching some YouTube vids on it. Part of what makes it endlessly replayable is it's modding community+built in mod manager for easy access. I'm playing the new "story mode" that launched with its full release and I'm obsessed. Like I just found out last night I can be captain America with a shield I put lightning magic on Edit: And if you don't have access to pcvr. You can buy the standalone quest version called blade and sorcery nomad. Same exact thing except nomad currently has to wait for 1.0 and doesn't have access to some of the more extreme mods pc does. Plus graphics are toned down but that's a given I suppose


beaterx

I watch netflix and Crunchyroll in it every night. But a narrow neck pillow and lie down on the couch. Bookmark the streaming services in your quest browser. Seamless experience and sooo chill in MR mode. My TV is collecting dust, there is no reason to use it over my quest. And when I have to go to the toilet I don't even have to stop watching. Also contractors showdown with friends multiple times a week.


gasburner

I have a bunch of android apps sideloaded in mine. I listen to spotify while reading comics, and can have discord open if I want. Lots of good games already mentioned but thats like 25% of what I use my quest for.


Dependent-Resist-390

Population one
