So, I've had my Go for a few days. really happy with it. Now the recurrent question i have: 
Why isn't there any point and click adventure games (example: Broken Sword) 
They are a perfect match for the GO

Seriously?
point and click in VR is kind of.....silly?
The point of VR is to be able to walk up and examine stuff....not use a 3rd person perspective...
Unless I'm missing something....(And I am an a developer, released VR adventure on Steam last year)

Can you post a link I'll love to try your game. Is it free or what's the price? I have a oculus rift

It is not on the oculus store but does support the rift.

Well there are some great 3rd person games out there - AAA ones.

I love point and click adventure games (Jonathan Boakes - Dark Fall, The Lost Crown for example) - this could work - clicking on objects which show up in front of you and you rotate them somehow, point and click to move around the room?

They'll appear eventually.

Well we have an idea of something similar, more like you are the 'ghost' and the character in game has to do things so you have to somehow direct him to get things done...like tip over a mug across the room to get him to go investigate, in the process he turns on the light to see etc...I could go into more detail but don't want to give our ideas away in too much detail!  But simple point and click is really a waste of VR....

OK, i think "simple point and click" is the key phrase here.  Point and click yes but also making use of what you have (VR).

I can agree to that, in this case it pays to be specific..
So yes, simple point and click is a waste of VR but there are ways to make a version of point/click fun...
