I’d strongly argue the opposite. Even Palmer Lucky himself is finally starting to swear off the VR coolaid a little.
“A lot of people insist on price, but if the VR available today were as good as The Matrix, price wouldn’t be the issue. It’s going to be a combination of better software and better hardware. Right now free isn’t cheap enough for most people.”
I still regard the Rift/Vive as the poorest technology investments I’ve ever made, but if others want to spend thousands of dollars on low res, low frame rate (no, 90-120 FPS is not good enough to adequately trick the human mind) motion sickness generators, have at it.
The install base is, and will remain, far too small to support serious investment in AAA software/games for many years yet I suspect. People love to argue the minute practical differences between the Rift and the Vive, but I’d argue who cares about either when there is so little software worth anyone’s time available.
