I don't get it. The technology doesn't have 30 years, it was non-existent until HTC Vive. There is no comparison, period. Now, a killer app? Tell that to the hundreds of thousands of people using VR right now. You don't need a killer app. The technology is already here, people are making use of it, finding new usecases or building new experiences every day, and the technology is improving every year. It makes no sense to be a doubter at this point, it's like saying "phones need a killer app".
- Grustaf 5y agoI tried it in the 90s, it was awesome. The graphics were more than good enough for a really cool experience. Much better than the first smartphones, comparatively speaking. Smartphones caught on like wildfire and were quickly used for loads of different things, by millions of people. Now after less than 20 years billions of people use them hours a day. VR is only used by 100,000s according to you, after 30 years. And almost only for gaming. The thing is that it’s not even mainstream among gamers, which I don’t get. I don’t play games but it just seems strange, the VR experience is so much cooler. The technology now is very advanced, and cheap, and you could imagine lots of use cases but almost nobody uses it.
