Yea I grew up without a headboard and don't really notice it, but I can see how it might make the room look empty.

Personally I think

Good headboard > no headboard > bad headboard

I'd rather not have one that's loose/shaking/damaging the wall

You can buy ones that just stick to the wall. Honestly, I don't want my head rubbing against the wall and leaving grease marks while I sleep, or fingerprints. You might not notice them but you definitely will once you move the bed.

Some of them shake and rattle whenever you move little, or how you can't push against them without it damaging the wall

I'd assume cheaper ones aren't that great, but I don't have specific buying advice
