I just got VR sailing wich is really interesting to learn a bit about how to use the wind at what angle of the sail to always move forward as fast as possible and the races are pretty fun so far. I put the waves setting to the max and my boat jumps and almost flips a lot XD

I also purchased crossfire sierra squad and the couple missions i played so far where not that interesting since i'm still in the tutorial but it feels like a flatscreen game that got turned into a VR game so some things are a bit janky. I've spent most of my time playing in the shooting range testing all the weapons. That was fun. The clay dummies are really fun to explode in dust and chunks.

It blew my mind when I found out how real wind sails worked.

You don't want the wind directly behind you. You're limited by the speed of the wind that way.

You want to ride the wind diagonally. This way you can go faster than the wind.
