I don't quite get why people are so hyped about VR. A novel experience, sure. Something to be "in" everyday, I'm not sure. And what about R [0], which we already have, and way better than VR, anyone?

- zigman1 4y agoIt has an amazing potential in gaming. For example, racing, which in R is too expensive for the majority, while the computer simulations are so close to reality, that the VR ads to the experience. It is also used by architects when designing buildings and different spaces, so it can also be used in professional environment. On the other hand, I think that all the meta thing is just corporate hype blown out of proportions. I can imagine tho that for some people their R isn't that great, or they will never have a chance to experience certain places in the world in first person. My 90 years old great-grandmother can experience Iceland only through TV documentaries, google street view or maybe VR.
- cal85 4y agoWhere are all these people who are so hyped about VR they want to spend every day "in" it? Maybe some of these people exist, but I don't think they exist in anywhere near the numbers they seem to exist in people's imaginations.
