Yeah there's nothing to do in VR. You can't play normal games and the cool VR games you can play are not worth buying a new console. Besides that there's no killer app, no 3D workspace environment that makes it worth it. The most worthwhile thing I've heard of is that if you're a frequent flyer, it can be a nice private way to watch movies or sometimes do work.

It feels like there should be something game changing to do in VR but whatever it is no one has made the program yet.

I use my vr as my monitor everyday or to watch content. quite nice being able to have my screen follow me along when i go grab water from the kitchen.

also arbitrary screen configuration of arbitrary size and orientation.

The big drawback I find with using virtual monitors is that the PPD is too low on most headsets to clearly render the monitor.
