Not so sure about this opinion actually.
Whenever I go to baseball games at AT&T Park in San Francisco, there's just something about the energy in the stadium, the sights of the park and surrounding area+views, the "different" (using that word loosely here) food, the cold foggy/windy night games, etc. You can get there early and try to get autographs, which not everybody is into but it's a cool benefit. You have a chance of catching foul or homerun balls.
I think using a VR version of this app would definitely be better than TV, but I wouldn't necessarily say it becomes any more of a comparatively better experience. I don't think it can quite match watching a game live and at the stadium itself.

- spike021 11y ago"True" VR could maybe.. just maybe simulate the full extent of that kind of experience, but I think we're very far off from that.
- qq66 11y agoIt doesn't need to be better than the stadium, it's competing with the TV. And in many ways, it can be better than both... Imagine being able to watch the game from the perspective of the baseball itself!
- spike021 11y agoWith respect to just competing with TV, then I agree. I think my original comment was directed more at how the OP made it sound like it would replace the need/reason to actually go to the stadium for a live game.
