Not everyone has space, not everyone wants to spend tons of money (generally the same people who don't have space) on 5 displays and the OS config to make 5 displays work. Some people travel a lot for work. There will always be enthusiasts like the people who spend absurd amounts of money on fancy mechanical keyboards, but once VR resolution becomes good enough for work, anyone who wants/works better with large screen real-estate or travels for work a lot will just dump monitors.
BTW if you're actually interested in this, Carmack talks about this and the state of the Oculus around ~ 56 min in the linked video.
- deathanatos 4y agoWhile I agree with most of your comment (I don't have space — it's ridiculously expensive! Wouldn't mind another monitor but it's also a bit expensive…) > absurd amounts of money on fancy mechanical keyboards Fancy mechanical keyboards aren't really expensive? (compared to monitors, or space, or even really VR headsets…) Most of the people I know who have them also have them because RSI. That forces you into being an enthusiast whether you want it or not. But a single trip to the doctors saved and the keyboard pays for itself. But they're also just better keyboards too.
- Karrot_Kream 4y agoOh I don't mean the keyboards are expensive. I mean the folks that collect keyboards.
- iudqnolq 4y ago> and the OS config to make 5 displays work I find this tendency funny. It's kinda crazy we keep building new very hard innovative software to avoid needing to fix boring software. I bet vscode will never support multiple monitors, even in vr.
