Where is VR gaming at nowadays?

With the release of the Valve Index back in June the mild interest in VR gaming I already had really grew. I've always had a mild interest in VR gaming but I never really dived deep into it as I've always seen it as quite a gimmick and the games seemed very gimmicky to me. I wonder what it's like nowadays.

For the prices that are being asked for VR kits I really would want it to be a good experience with great games that are playable without a huge hassle. I've watched a couple of YouTube videos where people play VR games and despite the games looking fun I don't really know if I would enjoy those for longer periods of time.

I played Beat Saber on somebody's PS4 the other day and I really quite enjoyed myself but the cables made it look like a huge mess and while it was fun I really wondered if I could enjoy playing games in VR for a longer period of time.

The Valve Index seems to be a nice jump in quality in terms of specifications but has the platform matured enough over the time where we can expect this to be a sort of final product? I've always considered the Oculus Rift as a sort of beta of the platform, the HTC Vive had some nice ideas with the wireless headset and I'm sure there are some other examples of this kind of features.

I feel like there are a lot of games out there that have been implementing (optional) VR in their games and I feel like in some cases it could genuinely make the experience better but for the price you pay for one of the headsets I would expect most of the games to be playable in VR in a way.

I feel like VR gaming is a matter of loving or hating it without any inbetweens but I'm not sure if that's still the case at the moment.
