VR IS ALREADY DEAD

New units sent out every day

All slopes trending downward instead of growing

Never more then 2 people playing most vr games

Valves free "Revolutionary Game" peaked at 100 users

People are literally trying games then closing them and never touching them again

This is the future we chose

Remember how popular WII was for its motion technology? Yea. That's what's gonna happen to VR.

I truly can't get my head wrapped around how stupid it is to buy new technology this early. Jesus, just wait a month or two to hear critic's reviews of it.

Why are poorfags so obsessed with doomsaying VR?
Are you really that mad that normies with a job will have virtual waifus but you never will?

It will top the hardware sales charts? Oh no, the horror.

VR is already being killed by being a shitty overpriced gimmick.

>>333718907
Yes, and it will die out in a year or two.

Unlikely. This is first gen tech we're seeing, it will only get better.

>seated VR is a gimmick
>standing VR requires huge caps on level space, and you have to teleport to move around

I really love seeing shills say teleporting is a solution to the motion sickness problem, as if that will not seal VR's fate as a gimmick.

People want to play Skyrim, Minecraft, Arma, Half Life, or Battlefield with this kind of tech. They want to run around vast open areas like they're actually there. No one gives a fuck about Job Simulator or shooters that are on rails.
