Could this be a cautionary tale for another recently turned VR-maker tech giant?

I'll just come out and say it, VR is a neat trick but doesn't solve any problems people have with computers.

Most people have zero interest in wearing screens on their head and cutting themselves off from the outside world.

Further once you've strapped it on and played a couple rounds of beat saber there's not much to do with it.

Consumer VR as currently envisioned is not going going to ever get out of the niche it's in.

I tend to agree, we had some some with the Rift S, but it’s been probably a year since we’ve put it on. When I wanna game I wanna relax, and VR just requires too much movement to be something I wanna do after work. Superhot is fun tho.
