I would like to adopt VR gaming more into my life but I have some important aspects that forbid me to do so:

  • I'm a lazy ass.
  • Heat, heat is real here that makes it uncomfortable to use even when using a fan or AC (I usually use the latter) and I'm a sucker for getting comfy while playing (refer to the first point) so that is why handheld is and will always be my favorite gaming format.
  • It is too expensive, and I only have the PSVR 1 with a PS4 slim at the moment, possibly the worst way to experience VR gaming (I am still amazed at how immersive it can be even with those graphics/resolutions).
  • I get dizzy, refer to the first point again, I don't want to be dizzy, I never could develop my VR legs I tried though, but I just couldn't force myself to enjoy gaming.

I think these are the most prominent points, if somehow I could fix all of those suddenly I'd do VR gaming so hard (no porn... Well maybe).

If only VR was like the New Nintendo 3DS which gave me the feeling of a "wow" moment without almost any downsides (or no downsides now that I think about it).
