VR actually went through this from 2014-2024 or so. the original Oculus DK had such chonky pixels, very rudimentary tracking, game integration sucked, no hand controls. it rapidly got better to the point where playing Riven is like straight up being teleported into the world..
..except for like, being able to run around or touch things. so it's stayed niche.
What's the status of VR right now? Any major advancement? I know oculus got bought by Facebook, so no way in hell I'd ever get that.
Strong rumors of Valve's new VR launching this year. Quite excited for that. Otherwise, the status (in my opinion) is stagnant. I still have fun occasionally getting into VR though.
