There is a lot of usage: Video games, workout, 3D modeling, adult content, ... But most of them are pretty niche. Maybe they will one day explode to the mainstream, but, even as a VR enthusiast, I doubt it will happen as long as you have to strap a weird looking bulky machine on your face.

strap a weird looking bulky machine on your face.

i think the hardware people should go all in, a develop a full body suit, may be even encase it in a shell which could suspend you (for free walking, turning etc), and make VR truly immersive. Could even use sonic/air pressure to produce haptic feedback on the body to simulate touch.
