@MowTin - VR is for more than just Gamers, though. And it's certainly for more than just the hardcore FPS / action game crowd..
Personally, while I love a good shooter / action game, especially in VR, I'm eager to see as large a variety of games as possible, and both Puzzle games and any Exploration-heavy game in general can be absolutely fantastic in this medium.
Don't worry though, I'm sure there will be no end to good shooter games in the coming years. In fact, if you want Lone Echo but with more guns... Stormland will hopefully be out soon.

@MowTin - I'm not sure why you think nobody is catering to the FPS crowd as it is, there is no shortage of shooters available on Oculus Home, and at least a few of them are based on Zero-G combat. In fact, one of them has been advertised pretty heavily on the main page for a while now..
Have you checked out Space Junkies yet? https://www.oculus.com/experiences/rift/1340764792673326/?locale=en_US
There's really no need to demand that people change other games to be more like the games you like. Just buy the kind of games you like, and let the rest of us have the Lone Echo franchise we already love.

If it's going to be another massive puzzle game then I don't care.
I just don't love puzzle games. I never even bought the greatest puzzle game ever--Portal.
Don't get me wrong I enjoyed Lone Echo and I'll certainly buy Lone Echo 2 but I feel it's a totally missed opportunity. Echo Combat VR is amazing. If they just added Echo Combat VR to a story-driven campaign it would be the Half-Life 2 of VR.
Puzzle games are not going to bring the masses to VR. Why invest so much time and money on a genre that has only a tiny fraction of gaming sales? That's just my opinion.

To be fair, I wasn't talking about games that I like. I'm talking about the most popular genre in gaming by far. And it's not so much about me, it's my wish for VR to succeed and prosper and reach mass adoption.
I've played Space Junkies but it's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about a HL-2 like game in VR. A full story-driven campaign FPS.
Games like Robo Recall and Marvel MPU don't have a story-driven campaign. Arizona Sunshine is a good example of an FPS with a story-driven campaign. But it doesn't have that Oculus Studios polish.
Anyway, I don't want to belabor the point. I just think that in the future, the zero-g shooter will be a massive success. At least we have Stormland and Asgard's Wrath coming which will be full story-driven FPS games.
