Hmmm nothing ringing my bells there.

They did show Asgard's Wrath and Lone Echo 2, but no Stormlands, Population One, Defector, Borderlands 2 VR, No Man's Sky VR, District Steel etc., so I agree it was an underwhelming collection of upcoming VR games, even felt slightly depressing with all those low-poly, no-textures Quest games. This one could be fun though, maybe just to reduce stress or for the kids, it's a real PCVR game by the Swedish team behind Apex Construct:

And kinda worrying that I just tried an old app from 2016 and it felt more impressive than any other VR experience I've had maybe since Lone Echo and Moss, namely The Lab ;) I really hope Valve can make some more content soon...

Maybe I'm in the minority but I was intrigued by several of the games they showed. 
After The Fall, The New WIzards expansion, Disciples of Dawn, Low-Fi (looks sick), Walking Dead looked meh but I'll probably play it. Undead Citadel looks good, Boneworks, Battlewake, SoulkeeperVR, Rogan, Espire1, Curious what exactly Solaris Offworld Combat is, Part 3 of Primordian, And Pistol Whip looked fun to me. 

So yea, maybe not a bunch of state of the art stuff, but games I'm looking forward to at any rate. 

Here I'll link the trailers -

After The Fall

Espire, bone-works, After the fall sounds good but not much released on that.

Not really loving Rogan, only seeing one enemy type and the physics seems off.

Bethesda disappoints again, where is Redfall? I wish they would deliver something people want instead of their terrible online concepts.

I'm sure something will pop up to surprise one and all :)

That would be frunky :)  I do have a leap motion (V1.0) wonder if it fits? I used to Velcro it on the Rift until the touch controllers made it obsolete.

Thanks for sharing.
This is what excites me with Valve Index - the return of the DIY element to the Prosumer VR community - the mod enjoyment of this phase of VR adoption. Though not mainstream, it will be great to see all the [FrunkClub] pet projects. It was the loss of this element of the scene when the gates closed behind DK2 development that I missed. Some really great pet projects died when the corporate mindset took over and closed the door on open source (-that lip service release of the DK1 opensource was way too little way too late). Now with the "Frunk" slot, I look forward to some weird concepts that drive innovation.
