I wouldn't underestimate how much more "real" and visceral VR can make things feel, even in its current state where the graphics are not photorealistic at all.

I wouldn't underestimate how much more "real" and visceral VR can make things feel, even in its current state where the graphics are not photorealistic at all. Just search on youtube for videos of people letting their relatives and friends attempt playing VR games. I can attest to this myself, and I am somewhat difficult to get shaken up by traditional media like movies/games.
