Got a Oculus Go from Herself for my B'day, and I just played my first VR game: "Cursed Sanctum".
Good lord, but it's poor. 10 minutes, start to end, including all the animations when I died - loads of times - that's not good. And as for the gameplay ... ignore the controller, you just have to look at the "glowing thing" for long enough and it's "Pressed". That's it. sit there while he walks, occasionally look at a glowing thing, probably die. Roll end credits. Uninstall.
As an example of what you can do with a VR helmet, it sucks.

I have tested Elven Assassin and quite enjoyed it. Robo Recall as well.

Tried the Westworld game... not too bad...but not as ground breaking as I was expecting. All the stuff I have seen in VR leaves me meh!

You lasted about as long as I did.
I'd rather have something along the lines of the old ViewMaster slides that had 3D underwater scenes.
Swimming around a reef without having to bother with a wet-suit and an aqualung would be great, but there are no really good ones, yet (that I've found).

My experience is with the HTC Vive, so I don't know how it compares, but here's a list of VR games that have been a hit with me and friends/family:
BeatSaber - Rhythm game. Large modding community, and supports the Go (I think.)
Pistol Whip - Another Rhythm game + John Wick vibe.
Gorn - Goofy gladiator combat sim.
Carly and the Reaperman - 2-person puzzle platformer.
I've done some others, with mixed results and motion sickness issues, but the four above are normally what gets played when I do gatherings at the house.

irthd = "third" (party = anag.)

Who the Elephant is John Daly/George Gobel/Webb Pierce, Carolyn Martin (nee Fowkes, later Schmitt) died that day. My Mum and I'm having a drink.
Got a snide remark about getting over it, I can walk to the Mount Druiit McDonalds car park in 2 minutes for a chat.
Oh, and scrotum.

I've bought new stainless steel thermos, which are advertised to "Keeps Hot to 14Hrs".
They arrived yesterday, so I'm just testing them (I've got a funeral 4 hours away next Monday, so I'd like hot coffee available for 12 hours t cover driving there and back).
Pour boiling water in, measure it with a thermocouple, check every hour till I go to bed.
I end up with values that end up like this:
Hours C
0.00 93
1.00 91
2.00 88
3.00 86
4.00 82
6.00 78
7.00 75
9.50 70
14.00 63
16.00 60 All I want is a simple scatter chart, with hours as X axis, and degrees C as Y ... a "best fit" trend line would be nice, but I have a red biro so it's not essential (that's the Advanced Version).
Can I persuade it to do that? It seems not. I've now got a YouTube video to watch which promises to show me how, but ... the amount of time I've wasted on this this morning, I could have used an SQL DB, the Chart Control and banged out a documented, GIT based WinForms app and still had time for another coffee ... 
Heck in the four minutes the YouTube video runs, I could have chucked together an undocumented Winforms app with the Chart control and a fixed set of values. Maybe I will. Maybe I'll just seethe a bit instead, and post the CCC ...
Why do people make simple stuff so pointlessly difficult?

That is to allow other people to make youtube videos about it. All that for the sake of letting you drink more coffee while watching for youtube videos on a monday morning

I've already watched one - but that was ThisOldTony on making a square rotary broach.
Good video, but not relevant to charting, I'm glad to say!
