I tried playing Resident Evil 7 for the first time last year using my Oculus Quest 2. I knew I would dislike the game without VR due to it being a 1st person game.
Unfortunately the VR made me feel sick really fast, so I'm now under the impression that I like VR games even less than 1st person games.

I am very much susceptible to motion sickness in VR.

I've found that the specific game implementation matters a lot. When I first started out I'd get very sick (brink of vomiting) within 5-10 minutes. I found that games that are designed for VR with cameras that have vignette effect, and hand controls (rather than game controller or on-rails) work much better for me. Also putting a fan on me helps too because part of the sickness is moving without feeling airflow which triggers one's brain to feel as if one is poisoned and hallucinating. If it is PCVR, 90fps is the bare minimum. Over time I've been able to get up to 2-3 hours before I'd feel sick and when I do feel sick it is far less severe. Slight nausea vs. immediate feeling of throwing up.
