Eye tracking would be awesome but it's not required for good VR. I fail to see how "using your head as a dumb camera joystick" is a problem; that's the whole point of VR.

Motion sickness is a real problem for some people (but not all). With low latency and thoughtful game design I think it can be mitigated. The bigger problem is the social acceptability of blocking your entire field of vision for long periods of time. I won't pretend that VR doesn't have problems, but the payoff is large enough that the problems are worth tackling.
