The Quest has a ton of features, sure.
But:
. I don’t see a lot of apps using many of these features at all.
. I don’t think VR will ever win the consumer space. I’ve been working on it for half a decade now, and I don’t know anyone who regularly uses their headset for entertainment. Party trick? Sure. Everyday use to watch a Vr film or play a VR game? Not really. I own a headset myself and I barely use it.
VR is a productivity and industrial tool, that’s where the true user adoption is. FB is fundamentally misdirected, and the sooner people get that the sooner they’ll realise there’s nothing there at the end of the rainbow for Zuck.

They've got enough people working on this I don't see how they can't work on gaming and work at the same time.
- kranke155 5y agoSure business applications are cool. But the hassle of using a headset vs a simple Zoom call? They’d have to build some great conferencing features in there. It’s possible.
