Just tried the shareware versions of Quake, Quake II and RTCW in VR... 🤯
@codewiz Japan Sinks 2020 looks _very_ promising!

Mayoiga (anime): Classic "group of teens experiencing mysterious paranormal events" plot, mixed with psychological elements. The show includes all possible stereotypical characters. Entertaining for sure, but the ending seems rushed.
You really need to get that Quest instead...
BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense (anime);
Hard not to be biased, since I am a huge fan of VR and MMOs. I like how this show depicts many of the social interactions I witnessed in old school MMOs, like Ultima Online or Tibia. There's basically no plot, it just follows the game-life of this OP player. It's full of laughing material. It's really easy to enjoy it for what it is.

Ocean Waves (film); It's not easy to explain why is so enjoyable. I think Studio Ghibli did a great work animating the novel. The world and characters feel so real. It's loaded with nostalgia, as well.
Sword Art Online: Alicization - War of Underworld (anime); Watch it, only if you are a fan of the series already. That's it, oh, good visuals!

Ni no Kuni (film); Beautiful ghibli-like visuals and soundtrack by Joe Hisaishi. The plot is entertaining but, somehow, some aspects feel a bit bland and underdeveloped. I haven't played any of the games, so I might be missing something.
I would still recommend to anyone looking for a different twist in the Isekai genre.
Higurashi When They Cry (anime); didn't seem like a good show at first but, since I have a soft spot for horror stories, I kept watching it. To my surprise, the way it tells the same stories from different characters POV, and how everything starts connecting and making sense as you learn more about the characters, was actually quite interesting and entertaining.
Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn (OVA); a great example of how rich the Gundam universe is. Excellent visuals, characters and plot.
Vinland Saga (anime); great visuals, epic battles, characters that actually develop over time. Definitely a must watch.
Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day (anime); Beautiful. Watch it.

@codewiz have you watched Mugen no Juunin: Immortal yet?
Kimetsu no Yaiba (first arc); the show you should be watching if you enjoy shōnen anime. It's a lot of fun, has GREAT animations and fighting scenes. Can't wait for the movie!

Made in Abyss (anime); an incredibly atmospheric and brutal adventure. Don't get fooled by the characters visual style, each of these was crafted with care. Can't wait for its continuation in 2020.
This is the musical piece you are looking for :)
The Sacred Blacksmith (anime), had, initially, a few interesting characters and a promising plot but, sadly, it wasn't developed any further or properly.
