I doubt facebook's fantasy of metaverse will happen but gaming purposes of VR is much more realistic goal and it's already happened, though maybe still a niche.

Ngl, the frame seems cool asf, basically a arm VR steam deck with a translation layer and APK support

Ok but it literally is happening though. I'm hopeful that Valve can make this a better experience than the Quest by using their open-source focus.

I hope it happens. And by it I mean VR / AR equipment that I can comfortably use for a few hours at a time without getting sweaty, fatigued, or motion sick. When I'm using a computer I like to have a bunch of displays, and it would be really convenient to have a comfortable headset that I can wear instead and live my dream of coding in VR / AR and spin displays up or down on a whim, or better still use some as-yet-undreamed VR native UI that takes advantage of the platform. That dream is still a way off, it seems like, but I still want it.

I'm pretty excited for it

Goddamn, new headset, steam controller, and a steam machine?

I won't be able to afford any of this!

I was never really interested in VR and was annoyed at finding interesting-looking games and finding out they're vr-only. But then I played MYST and The Room in VR. That was a neat experience.
