I hate to say this, but I played through Half-Life: Alyx and my response was to the effect of “…That’s it?”

It performed badly, gameplay was largely based around very uncreative shooting (take out gun, shoot combine 10 times around corner, eject magazine, reach back, put magazine into gun, pull slide, shoot around corner 4 more times, repeat) and there were only 3 guns. Even the gravity gloves weren’t used in combat.

I was even more wowed by the few VR combat games that made some innovations or had features in the level to outsmart enemies.
