if you meant to use "doesn't"- then you're only proving OPs point. VR is a matter of when, not if.
if you meant to use "can't"- well- that seems a little short sighted for something that is so obviously in the realm of physical possibility.
- callmeed 10y agoSee my other comment. That was a specific reply to the notion that: > Virtual reality does not merely replicate reality ... He/she is saying "VR replicates reality and more", while I'm saying "no, VR doesn't even replicate reality, let alone anything beyond it" No need to get pedantic about the grammar.
- catshirt 10y agonot trying to be a pedant and i completely understood the context. we're talking about tense, not grammar. there is a huge difference between saying "VR is not good right now" and "VR will never be good". "Virtual reality does not merely replicate reality" i'm assuming OP meant "VR [has the possibility to] not merely replicate reality." or "[ideally] VR can not merely replicate reality...". we're trying to predict a trend- how well developed the technology is now seems less relevant than it's end-game.
