If you want to know anything about VR, why would you talk to someone who knows nothing about VR?
What is it with our culture that expertise is viewed as a conflict of interest? Flat-eathers scoff at astronomers. A teacher tells some parents their kid is having trouble in a subject and the parents blow up. There's a small band of entitled truckers out here making folks late to pick up their kids from school because they think they know better about vaccines than doctors.
A user only knows their own, subjective experience. As a developer, I collect feedback from many users.
- oneoff786 5y agoAstronomy is a science with objective facts. You’re suggesting VR enthusiasts are the experts on whether VR is good.
- moron4hire 5y agoI'm not suggesting that at all. My post was a reply to a list of "problems", arguing they weren't actually all that important of problems. I also listed real problems we face. I'm the lead developer on a project targeted at everyday people. I survey and interview these people about problems they have with our software and the hardware. I have real insight into the things people complain about and praise most often. I didn't come in here and say "VR good. You dumb." The problems GP listed indicate a profound lack of good-faith experience with the technology.
