    I think the only thing that made people think about VR was Half Life Alyx.

    If plenty of games would be made with that level of quality VR could actually became a thing.

    But boring companies keeps trying to push VR for boring things.

      It’s crazy how lazy these companies are trying to be about VR. Imagine nintendo or Sega launching a console without any studios or titles. Everyone is so fucking busy with trying to hit the next “tech boom” that they feel it’s everyone else’s problem to come up with actual use cases that people will stick with (wearing a clunky headset for extra monitors isn’t a long-term solution).

      I’m tired of watching these multi-billion dollar VR companies showing ping-pong demo’s, real actual fucking ping-pong is 100x fucking more fun and it’s never brought up. Would love to watch an actual demo with two people playing vr and two people playing real table tennis side by side for an actual comparison. (for anyone saying how much easier it is to play in VR, you just spent $3500 for ONE headset)
