VR is still to much in it’s infancy, it will probably die and be reborn many times, just like 3D. I just don’t think the tech, software, & networking capabilities are there yet, until they can deliver something like the anime Soul Art Online. The only thing that will probably keep it alive is the porn industry, sadly

I think the tech is there. The e.g. Vive was already a great bit of kit, but now the Vive Pro has been released offering something like 67% better resolution. I do agree that the killer apps aren’t quite there inc. networking, though.[/quote]Yeah, but imagine how much better it would be if the headset wasn’t so huge, & uncomfortable.  If it could be ran on a small device in your backpack, didn’t need items in your hands,  more portable, etc.  VR in the 90’s blew donkey dick, sure it is much nicer, but as tech evolves it usually gets smaller & cheaper
