You think the entire point of VR isn't the actual virtual reality?
Without the headset you're back to looking at a 2D projection of the world. There are plenty of fantastic VR experiences that are fully playable in a seated position, flight sims in particular are vastly more immersive when you can physically look around the cockpit and the glass canopy.
- wisnoskij 4y agoNo, I think 1 screen vs 2 minutely different screens is the same order of magnitude of virtual reality. Their is almost no benefit, and far more downsides. The complete failure of 3D movies and tvs demonstrates that easily, as they had way fewer downsides and still failed. Also the neck control is nice, but the only significant benefit of vr is the use of hand-eye coordination for the controller. The use of our feet for locomotion would also be huge, but no one can afford a warehouse to play VR in, so that is possibly never going to happen.
- _carbyau_ 4y agoTried VR gaming via a warehouse-based company. https://zerolatencyvr.com/ https://zerolatencyvr.com/ Even with a warehouse, it was obvious that a lot of levels started with you having to turn around as you'd hit the end of usable space. So even warehouses are not going to cut it. But I disagree with your "2 minutely different screens" point. I see VR as being like Surround Sound. Yeah, you can play music and watch movies with mono or stereo audio - but the immersivity does add significantly to the experience.
