I'm in Germany and you can get Ocolust Quest II @ Amazon France or Spain mostly for somewhat the official price like 300-350 for the 128GB version.

Same here in Russia. I ended up purchasing it it from Amazon for $340 ($300 for headset and $40 for delivery). Spent about $50 more for accessories (a data cable plus Chinese replica of Elite strap).

Half-Life Alyx
Beat Saber (!!!)
Moss
A Fisherman's Tale
Blade & Sorcery
Google Earth VR(free)
VRChat(free)
Superhot VR
Skyrim VR (only with Mods)
Not really recommended:
House Flipper VR (non VR is good)
also heard good of:
Gorn(Fighting)
Job SImulator
Cooking Simulator VR
I Expect You To Die
Boneworks
IMO Quest2 with decent graphic card and Ocolus Air Link (5GHZ Wifi plx) or 5 metre connection cable (even better quality) works really good for SteamVR.
Elite Strap is a bonus for more comfort and better battery time,it's sadly a bit short.
Good story games would be Alyx, Moss, Skyrim ofc.
Beat Saber for Arcade Rhythm Game and Music.
Others are somewhat Fighting or Sandbox. Killing someone in Blade & Sorcery is fucking realistic - psychopath simulator <3

Yes I have a 5Ghz wifi and airlink is on, played a bit with SteamVR and set up the things. But most of my games on Steam are not VR, I have maybe a few that support it but require a gamepad/keyboard/wheel with it (Dirt Rally 2, Senua's Sacrifice) and honestly, those are not games for a beginner VR gamer. I'm aware it's still sort of niche market (even with 10M Quest2 sold and 16M PSVR I guess) but was hoping there are some "real" games for me to find.
I've heard of Alyx that's wishlisted, heard of Beat Saber too, though I'm not sure about that one but why not. I'm more into story games. Not sure about Skyrim as I've already finished it twice but it does fit what I'm looking for.
Moss seems interesting for later.
A fishermans tale seems weird as hell, putting that on my wishlist!
Blade and Sorcery, I wanna avoid EA, also doesn't seem there's much story more like sandbox.
Yes batter time is short, but honestly I don't mind, I try to limit myself to 30-40 min sessions anyway to avoid headaches or whatever.

If you like Story, you'll love especially Fishermans Tale, also Moss.
You can try Beat Saber on the Ocolus Store 4 free, installing on your Quest2, without PC rendering. GFX is really good too.
And yeah, it definitely not a story game, but one of the best VR Games imo.

try the clones, someone told me they liked one of the clones better mightve been audica, theres quite a few. also dont sleep on applab some decent free stuff in there, more hit than miss but price is right. also in app lab that looks interesting is iron guard, like mech battles i think

superhot is a great game for beginers cause its all roomscale no locomotion. unless your space is super small. also for all vr games never use snap turn. think thats what most newbies are doing wrong when it comes to motion sickness. always turn with your whole body instead

If you enjoy MMOs (and maybe even if you don't) I can recommend giving Zenith a look. After years of development it's releasing in Early Access on all platforms in no less than two days (at 10 AM PST). I've been following their progress since late 2020 and I can confidently say this is a solid title that is already drawing the attention of a huge chunk of the VR community. Priced at $27 with the current launch discount - keep in mind with many features yet to be developed over the upcoming years, but with a solid foundation in place.

for best value the quest vr fanatical bundle is still active i think for a couple days most games are old except zombieland but its a good deal for new vr people $15 for 7 games plus a 60% off code for zero caliber (havent gotten zero caliber but looks good). all keys are for oculus store so quest native and pc.
besides that you should mostly avoid games $30+ on quest store (unless you got your 30% off coupon code) cause theyre kinda not worth it usually (relatively to other avaiable titles. obvioulsy the best stuff s on pc and primarily through mods
quest native
population 1 gets most of my time followed by
pokerstars
virtual desktop over airlink for steamvr games (optomize your wifi for wireless pcvr)
everyone is playin after the fall but its like a mini side mode game charging full price
gamepass
star wars squadrns
alien isolation (gamepad vr mod)
subnautica 1 and 2 (gamepad vr mod)
tetris (meh)
ark (gamepad vr mod) kinda broken
hitman trilogy (vr kinda brokem)
outer wilds might be on gamepass dont remember (gamepad vr mod)
steam
resident evil 2 (vr mod)
resident evil 3 (vr mod)
monster hunter rise (gamepad vr mod)
valhelm vr mod
payday 2
risk of rain 2 probably best vr mod done
projct rtd (if on sale and really like tower defense/auto battlers)
battlegroupvr for space rts but its not easy am stuck on like the third stage
elite dangerous (space trucking, either gamepad or hotas)
wingman (heard good things)
vrchat on pc will blow you away more than most games
neos even better but harder and less people (more about "props" than avatars)
operation warcade not bad if on sale
no mans sky is a must play
borderlands 2 vr only if youve never played the flat version, will be dissapointed otherwise)
racing games
dirt 2 (dirt 1 is vr also may be able to catch a ga for it)
asseto corsa (both versions are vr but only the old one is moddable)
one of the monster truck jam games is hidden vr
i think project cars 2 but doesnt work right with gamepad need steering wheel
games to stay away from
killing floor, not even if only a buck
grip
probably all kart racers for motion sickness reasons
Vorpx unless you have a 3080 gpu and want to play flat games in 3d (using as intended for forcing vr not very pleasent but flat non 3d games in stereoscopc 3d looks great but takes up to much resources, my 1070 cant hang)
probably missing a bunch already have a huge backlog

recently there are quite a few vr bundles which can help with finding some decent games quite cheap.
eg. loved gloomy eyes, quite short raher vr animation than game made me a great day.
Actually there are a lot great recommendations already (btw started HL Alyx recently, amazing so far) if you have children or friends afgter a rew beers try Acron: Attack of the Squirrels!. You can play with multiple people, one on headset, others on mobiles, pretty easy but fun game when there is good mood
BTW, there are some really intense and realistic shooters out there but I have pretty bad motion sickness and real walking in VR is making my mind and stomache crazy really fast

Maybe a little late to reply but maybe it still helps (you or someone else) ..
If you liked Vader Immortal, you'll probably also enjoy Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy's Edge.
Other than that I've played and really enjoyed:
Beat Saber (it's a must)
Moss
Lone Echo
Time Stall
Skyrim VR (modded)
Fallout 4 VR (modded)
Ragnarock (casual)
Superhot VR
In Death: unchained (casual)

Yes, I'm playing it and it's an epic way to explore the wastelands.
I'm using the Fallout 4 VR Essentials Mod list by GingasVR.
She created a wabbajack mod list (= Auto mod installer) which includes 200+ mods for Fallout 4 VR.
Here's a link for more info:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2167294028
(I'm not associated, just really like the mod list and the fact that I didn't have to spend the time to select, install and test all mods individually)
I get no motion sickness with this list. Might be because of a certain mod that's included or because it's not that bad. No idea. Haven't tried the vanilla version, so I can't compare.
Main downsides of this mod list are:
a) It's tuned for survival (not everybody likes that),
b) In order to use this list, you'll need Fallout 4 VR as well as Fallout 4 GOTY Edition (all DLC's),
c) It's highly recommended to have a premium account with Nexusmods.com during installation (otherwise you're sitting there, initiating each mod download manually).
So in the end it costs a bit more than just the game itself.
But in my eyes it's worth it.

From the top of my head:
A Fisherman's Tale is short, but quite the brilliant puzzle game.
The Invisible Hours is unique and very enjoyable. You try to solve a murder mystery. Several people in a big manor are all following their own little stories, and you as the spectator follow them, try to find out what they're up to and how they are connected to each other. You will soon notice that lots of things happen in parallel, but conveniently you can control time. Brilliant design, well written and acted - couldn't stop until I finished it.
Pixel Ripped 1995 is extremely fun. Screenshots or even videos just cannot convey the feeling you get when playing. Telling you that you play retro games in VR in it also doesn't serve it justice. Not even close. It's a surprisingly immersive experience.
Red Matter is also a really nice puzzle game with a cool story.

Didn't know about Groundhog Day, but I wishlisted it now. Thanks.

Inside Quest 2 there aren't many great games.
(especially graphics-wise)
The better ones IMO are:
Dark Room VR
Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners
Resident Evil 4
Superhot
If you're more into casual rhythm games, there are:
Beat Saber
Ragnarock
Pistol whip
Synth riders
But once you move into PCVR territory - it's a whole new ballgame.
First of all, Quest 2 being completely wireless, is hands off best PCVR experience.
So HL: Alyx is the king here.
I recommend both the base game and the mods.
The mods fell like full fledged games at times.
Especially the Bioshock mod. It's basically playing Bioshock 1 in VR.
Beyond that, there are quite a few nice games.
Especially graphics-wise (you can't compare to the games Quest 2 is limited to).
But I honestly can't think of one that can even come close to competing with HL:Alyx.

First off I recommend an application
OVR Advanced Settings - It's 100% free (it allows you to change quite a bit of settings in VR games, the most important being height, because a lot of games don't account for you sitting down, with this you can make your sitting height the characters standing height and have a good VR experience :))
And then the games I own/have played that I would recommend is the following:
Accounting + (good little wtf game)
Beat Saber (because duh, its one of the best VR experiences, and you can download beatmaps other people made)
Fallout 4 VR (if your PC can handle it, its the full original game but in VR)
GORN (nice wacky melee brawler VR experience)
Into the Radius (looks like STALKER but in VR, the game still getting a lot of updates)
Job Simulator (another wacky comedy VR game)
Killing Floor Incursion (a nice VR shooter with zombies, has a decent story and location variation, oh and co-op)
Psychonauts into the Rhombus of Ruin (if you want a simple power-based puzzle game)
Superhot VR (good shooter/puzzle game)
Townsmen VR (it's basically a RTS in VR, would definitely recommend it :) )
Trover saves the universe (comedy action platformer)
The Walking Dead Saints and Sinner (one of the best VR titles out there)

So, like many others I was 300% sure VR is a silly gimmick and wasn't interested at all, didn't follow news, reviews, even had it's tag blocked on Steam store... until I got a Quest2 and tried Fruit Ninja (gift giver preloaded it for me...) and said "meh". Then I got $10 store credit, got Vader Immortal ep1 and realized "HOLY MACARONI"!!1!
Anyway, I've finished all 3 episodes of Vader Immortal and have HL Alyx wishlisted (already got it recommended) but I'm wondering if people who have Quest2 or a similar VR headset can recommend me a few more good/solid games on Oculus store, and ofc. on Steam.
Like, something you've played and know it's more than a casual gimmick like Fruit Ninja VR. Something with a story, substance... If it's a Steam game that supports VR but I need to use a regular gamepad, please mention it as a note.
Thanks!
5 months later update, since people are still recommending stuff (good): Due to day job and some other stuff didn't really get to try and play many games that were suggested but I did try some:
