What’s really dumb is that VR could actually take off if it was done correctly, but these billionaires can’t think of literally anything besides profit so they base the entire model around that and just expect people to want it. If he had dumped an iota into further development of VR tech, and invested in some actual original VR content, games, etc then people would flock to it. That and actual affordable VR since everything is still overpriced since it’s considered a niche market.
Well it kinda is? Most of the time I’ve been using VR has either been on the headset itself or wirelessly streaming from a PC. My headset is old so the quality isn’t amazing, but by and large its always worked well.
That’s the Quest headsets whole thing. The games run on the device, and it has cameras for AR stuff, which is surprisingly intuitive. That being said, what impressed me the most was how solid streaming VR games from my PC (over Wifi 6) is. Pretty much indistinguishable from wired.
Valve’s upcoming new VR headset should be a little better at running games and will probably be great at Streaming, though it won’t do AR.

It’d be super cool if it were self-contained and wireless…
