> VR’s killer app ATM
there is no such thing as a 'killer app' "ATM" - a 'killer app' by definition is one that transforms technology/society and that afterwords, we 'cannot do without' (or at least think so) - eg. personal computers+spreadsheet, smartphones+mobile internet, etc.
If a 'killer app' is 'at the moment', it isn't a killer app because there is a 'next' moment, implying that the previous 'killer app' wasn't 'killer' because we can now do without it

- jonplackett 7y agoThat’s exactly what best saber is. I bought an oculus quest purely due to beat saber. Everything else it can do was/is/will be a bonus!
- ekianjo 7y agoPeople bought the Wii because they thought it was transformative. Yet people got sick of standing the whole time to play. Same with VR.
