1. A lot of people saying this are just older and with less free time. Do you still play video games a lot? I think the question is in part whether VR can engage kids for as long as video games do.
2. The headsets are still too early. Wireless latency is almost there, but not quite. The headsets are too heavy. I think the Quest 4 or 5 are going to be so vastly better that users won’t mind staying in VR for longer, and won’t get bored of it.
3. Content, content, content. Alyx is awesome, but there needs to be 10 of those per year. And with better headsets, and an ever expanding user base, I think content will continue to explode.
I'm a PC gamer and have a very capable PC but haven't bought any VR equipment because I don't know what I'd play.
The issue is probably that I'm not looking for an excuse to buy a headset, I'm waiting for a reason. I don't seek out information for VR and none of it is getting through to me.
I do think it's amazing - Superhot is one of the best games I've ever played. But I get it - I don't know how to explain, but it seems like work to use it.
