Way to miss the point.
I spent $1000 on a VR headset, and it wasn't what I envisioned. It was way better. Having played in VR, I don't even bother with flatscreen games anymore. It's not just putting the screen closer to your eyes. It's an entirely different paradigm. And it's fucking kickass.
Everyone I've seen whining about how VR isn't that great and isn't going to catch on and various problems that they imagine etc is acting like a boomer complaining about cellphones. Or Texans trying to say electric cars are worse than ICE cars
