Personally, I don't really consider what we've got to be really VR yet. IMO that won't come until we have interfaces that take direct nerve input and override our sensory inputs. And given how our economy runs, I don't think I'll trust any company that develops that, as much as I really want it.

Though I also wonder if our brains can handle switching between that and reality. After playing hours of Horizon VR, I noticed having the feeling a few times that my hands weren't real because I got used to thinking that when I looked at my fake hands in the game.
