How do you define a successful user experience in a VR game?

I’m interested in what truly makes a VR game’s UX “successful.” Is it seamless locomotion with minimal motion sickness, intuitive hand-tracking controls, or perhaps dynamic audio cues that guide players organically? How important are elements like comfort settings, accessibility options, and customizable interfaces? For those who have tested VR titles from AAA studios to indie experiments, what design decisions elevated the experience such as room-scale mapping precision or clever use of haptic controllers?

A successful VR game provides intuitive controls, immersive visuals, and engaging gameplay that make players feel present and connected. It minimizes discomfort, offers seamless interaction, and delivers a satisfying, memorable experience that keeps users immersed and eager to explore further.

The best VR experiences make you forget you're wearing a headset by creating seamless interactions that feel natural rather than forcing you to think about controllers or interface elements.
