There might be some better use cases especially with the sensing gloves that Zuck shared last year.

- smoldesu 4y agoI'm really just not convinced VR has much room to take off in the first place. The Oculus Quest is pretty great, hardware-wise. Even the OS isn't too bad - the problems arise when you try to find anything worth doing. Games are long and hard to get into, VR experiences are short and costly. I mostly just found myself using the Quest as a way to watch movies on an OLED screen. After a few weeks I just went back to watching TV the normal way and haven't found a reason to go back since. Superhot and Half Life: Alyx was fun, but VR isn't poised for success if it's just going to be another console arena.
