Not entirely fair. The Quest is a joy to use. But I will admit that even though each time I take off the dust from my Quest I am wowed at the experience, ... each time I take off the headset I shrug and I'm like "cool". Maybe we just need to come to grips with the fact that _as an entertainment or work_ device, it's friggin awesome - and as far as "reality" goes, it's pointless. Now of course if it came to a point where you don't want to remove the headset.. but thankfully personally I don't have any worries. A funny philosophical thought.. you reproduce the sense of smell, taste .. etc... Then people will be like, "umm, it's just like my real life now.. what is the point?" Other than being "transported" (for fake) and experience another place. I think that's the main misconception with VR. There is the dream of "living another life". But it's just entertainment. edit: I should also add that despite promising stories in the media, the ability of VR to heal trauma, to heal our nervous system, to make us better people... is still very much up in the air.. and as I am healing trauma myself I can see how VR could just as well unbalance the nervous system. I mean you're already seeing how "novelty" messes us up in social media (inifinite scroll etc)... why should we expect VR to make everything betteR?
