Is VR a meme or the inevitable future?

Is VR a meme or the inevitable future?

Were motion controls a meme or the inevitable future?

you're a meme

Meme

You tell me, VR controllers are a continuation of that.

>.2% steam users have VR
>wasted 1,000 maple coins on this meme

What about other peripherals? Racing wheels are probably not that common either, much less full-fledged cockpits that cost $800+.

Most racing games aren't unilaterally dependant on having an 800-dollar wheel rig

90% of PCucks are running toasters too

PS VR is already outselling Rift + Vive combined many times over

inevitable meme

>he plays racing games with a keyboard

Inevitable niche.

1.not going to replace 'mainstream' gaming anytime soon if ever
2.not going to look graphically as good as best possible graphics on monitors because of heavier HW demands
3.not going to be as convenient as 'normal' gaming

It's a nice addition if you have too much spare $$$ but unless we get some gigantic tech leap focused on VR it's going to stay that way for a long time.

Future of what? The technology is there and it'll be there for the foreseeable future because there's uses for it.
This is Sup Forums though so I guess you mean "the future of videogames". Doubtful, though no one knows.

In the end it's important to always remind you people VR isn't exclusively a videogame thing.

>there's uses for it.
The porn, you are talking about the porn, right?

Long story short yes
It doesn't work well wih traditional controls because motion sickness, FPS genre is a big no-no, racing is too niche, and space sims and flight sims are dead. Enjoy point at the ground and click to teleport
"""games"""

Depends on if devs will ever make the investment of developing games that fully utilize the tech. Right now it's in PSP half-game limbo.

Did EyeToy ever catch on? How about the Kinect? The PS Move?

Exactly.

Have you been living under a rock?
Motion sickness is a nonissue even for FPS games nowadays.

also
>space sims are dead
really now

Did cars catch on? What about shoes or movie theaters?

Checkmate.

What most of the underage people on Sup Forums don't realize is people called computers, the internet, Atari, and the NES gimmicks as well

He plays racing games

Who do you think you're fooling? Even Carmack at minecon was talking about not turning too fast in VR and he was nearly puking in there. This shit will never be mainstream, not to mention the issues with demanding specs to have a decent VR experience, constant push for shitty exclusove tech demos and barely any support for traditional games.

Ive played vr fps, no sickness at all

A meme.

Meanwhile there is doom 3 VR mod already
