    Lol “everyone” being a bunch of dumfounded dipshits that didn’t understand the technology nor did they understand the target audience nor the actual sliver of market share that VR contains due to the technical and financial restrictions of said technology… Muppets in a box

      Yeah they could have literally just asked any gamer. Most people I know with vr headsets don’t use them, they’re currently an expensive gimmick to play beatsaber on occasion until you get motion sick.

        I mean, gamers were the ones to hype it up in the first place. When Oculus had a puking machine with wires sticking out of it, the people hyping it up were the Carmacks of the world, and by proxy all the gamers saying “maybe this time they’ll figure it out”.

        In fairness, they got it pretty far along, but it was never going to be a primary way of interacting with computers or anything else.
