Oh man, I absolutely meant to include Walkabout Golf VR. It's excellent. I do keep coming back to that. Its mini-putt physics are dead-on.

Also Elevens Table Tennis is great too. Feels pretty accurate to me. Also seems like if I played it enough I could get better at real life table tennis.

I'm having a bit of difficulty getting into RE4. I kept getting killed in the first village where the chainsaw man is, near the beginning, and I was playing it on the easier setting.

I'm not bad at games or anything, I did fine in Half Life Alyx for example, but for some reason I kept getting swarmed and I run way out of town while shooting at them and run out of ammo then getting bit as I try to melee them.

I'll give it a try at some point, but for the moment I deleted it to make space for other games (I've been trying quite a bit, trying to get a good feel of what's out there as "research" for my game...

Just found out about Viveport the other day, where you can pay a monthly fee to play a bunch of VR games. Assuming that works with the Quest 2 I'll sign up for a subscription so I can knock out a bunch of games and find out which ones I like.

I agree that was quite a shock for me too. The enemies are infinite, I ended up circling around the village until the bell rang. However you can find a shotgun/grenade in the second floor of one of the houses, you can then exit to the roof and run around there, you can also lock yourself in the top of the bell tower (via ladder) and hide in a corner so the molotovs don't get you. You can also barracade yourself in one of the houses and push wardrobes so they cover the windows. Lots of options, but the game design isn't great!

Another general tip is to headshot them until they stumble, then run up to them and kick them. When they're on the floor slash them with the knife until they die. That's the most efficient way to kill them and save ammo. Headshots seem a lot easier in VR than with a controller! Later on when underground, if you see water below you with fish in it, throw a grenade then climb down and collect tons of free food!

(Separately) I am enjoying the Quest 2 but would be open to buying a gaming PC if PCVR is worth the money. Any PCVR-exclusive games you've enjoyed? Other than Alyx of course!
