"embodiment" really is the raison d'etre of virtual reality. Without it, you might as well explore the internet as usual. I get that some people don't get a rush from embodiment.

I don't quite get that some do. :-) Heck, aren't we all embodied -- that is, in our actual bodies -- already?

(And yes, I have tried it. Only the once, but at a facility with, AIUI, fairly high-end equipment.)
