Simula One – Linux VR Computer

This is why I firmly believe that augmented reality has far more potential than VR. Augmented reality recreates the world, whereas VR builds a new one and creates unavoidable barriers due to total immersion.

With AR you go out, with VR you no longer have to. And yes, I want AR but potential wise... Not sure if their aren't billions of people who would rather just sit inside in nice worlds being entertained for almost free than step outside in the horrorshow they actually live in. I mean in a few years or so when the manual jobs are gone and we missed a bunch of climate goals etc.

theyre not mutually exclusive, one can want immersion (VR) while gaming at home, and AR while going about ones day in the world

True. But I am not that convinced the AR part will be popular in the future.
