VR is a gadget, the same way that 4D cinemas are gadget. Ok it's +/- fun the first time to receive water droplets in your face while watching a movie, or for the cinema to spread fake fart smell, but this is not the experience you want to have every day.
Apparently only a single-digit % of people who purchased AR headsets are using them once in a month (source: Valve developer Chet Faliszek)
- nomel 3y agoIn my opinion, HMD are clearly the future of display tech. VR is something you get for free, with an HMD.
- rvnx 3y agoA (dystopian) future is more likely the Neuralink injecting visual signals or thoughts. Even an ultra-light HMD gives the Glasshole feeling, besides not being comfortable to wear.

- theshackleford 3y ago> but this is not the experience you want to have every day. It’s been the experience I’ve been having every day since the original oculus devkit. I’ve rarely touched a flatscreen title since. Eventually I hope they’ll become good enough to work in when I travel. edit In saying that, i've always maintained its not ready for normies yet, and that we were probably a good decade or two away from the point where its going to be in a format/design that the mass market would accept/have interest in. In fact in many cases, I still actively reccomend against purchase because I know it's still kinda incuating along.
