Gonna be awesome. Don't need to put up with others' problems as much.

It's going to have fantastic potential and opportunities, unfortunately I see lots of people, especially young kids becoming addicted and "escaping" into other worlds.

I think it'll change how movies and games are made, they're going to be much more intense and absolutely amazing.

Just imagine the amount of NEETS there will be compared to now.

It will be a boon to doctors, designers, architects, museums and more because practically every kind of visual experience can be turned into something that is more easily visualised from different angles. However, google glass' failure does tell us that people won't be walking around town with headsets because they are overly intrusive and make you look as annoying as a cocksucking faggot riding on a segway.

Why do you think this?

>unfortunately I see lots of people, especially young kids becoming addicted and "escaping" into other worlds.
lel, they always say this about the newest things (MMOs, TV, the internet, comic books etc)

It's gonna bring next level waifus.

It will speed up brain development the same way psychedelics did thousands of years ago. In that, you are essentially dreaming while still awake in a virtual environment.

>MMOs, TV, the internet
It actually happened with all those things.

Even more degeneration than the Internet brought, this time probably terminal.

It's going to be the nail in coffin for real humanity. People will no longer go out and enjoy nature. It's going to increase the problems we already have with mental illness.

>It will be a boon to doctors, designers, architects, museums and more
You know it will be predominantly used for watching 3D porn.

perhaps they can make filters so that i see all the brown people around me as respectable whites?

cant cure the smell though so i dunno i wont believe it

>People will no longer go out and enjoy nature
So?

yeah the internet is predominantly used for porn as well but that doesn't mean it hasn't also had a huge impact in other areas.

If you haven't spend a week out in the woods with no technology or anything modern, I feel bad for you. You don't know what real, natural, happiness is.

>the printing press will be the death of human interaction
>television will be the death of human interaction
>video games will be the death of human interaction
>slightly more immersive video games will be the death of human interaction

I work on a farm, and live in a barn.
The closest retail store is at minimum a 1 hour round trip.
Fuck the outdoors.

Just spending an hour in nature makes me so joyful

oh yeah, because i sure do love ticks & poisonous snakes & leeches & other trash
humanity is above "nature"
the sooner nature is wiped away the better
im fucking sick of nature & people like you who act like a forest is something godly

Not human interaction. Humanity itself. All those things have made us slaves, they've made people less human. Why do you think we have so much mental illness and depression these days? We're animals outside of our natural environment. Dogs are happiest outside, it's in their genes. Modern life is like taking a dog and putting him in a kennel.

I grew up in the UP. I know how you feel, but trust me, cities are hell.

Damn, stupidity and ignorance spreads like a fire these days.

I can't wait until they invent some type of device to put around your dick so you can have virtual sex

>le stoned ape meme

lay off the mckenna, nerd

Nope, just another ways for the media to control and shape the masses, JUST LIKE news, tv and the internet.

why have virtual sex when you can literally fuck yourself

kill yourself if you think technology cant handle the few things we depend on from "nature"
im not saying we totally end it, we can keep it in designated little containment areas
if you stayed a fucking day in it you'd know its fucking horrible
>b...but its so pretty
who the fuck cares

kill yourself.

VR waifus will usher in a golden age.

Damn. You sound like a fag

better get a stab vest to go with it

you first nature cuck

>t. underage frog-poster

>implying increasing atomization isn't already happening

You think post-carousel women now complain that they can't find a decent man?

Wait until 3D porn becomes widespread and affordable. What percentage of men will just give up on dating and relationships entirely? It will be real-life sex 2x/month with an HB4 vs. daily VR sex with an HB10. Lots of men will probably choose the latter.

why? because i dont unquestionably LOVE nature & want to preserve all of it? 99% is fucking trash.
>muh pollination
>muh food chains
this garbage mattered to savemen maybe
but it wont matter to us soon

Uh okay how about the fact that trees keep you alive by producing oxygen?

>yes, goyim, let's destroy nature
>yes, goyim, live in my virtual world instead the real world
>no, goyim, I don't want to control every aspect of your life

>t. i have nothing else to say
i figured as much

I respond to shitpost with shitpost mein freund.

It might become to the smartphone what the smartphone is to the newspapers.

It will likely invade every aspects of our lives, increase our ability to communicate while distancing us from each others.

It will increase our means of productivity but will also provide us with a myriad of ways to waste our time.

It will satisfy our most fucked up fantasies but will raise our expectations way above anything the real world can provide.

In the end, nothing will really change, a handful of people will gain power from it while it will ruin the lives of billions

It won't change shit , it's a shitty gimmick like 3dTV

so you're saying that we will NEVER live in space?
or will we have to bring
>muh trees
with us?
or you're saying we will NEVER be able to produce air, its simply technologically impossible, we need our tree friends?
do you even listen to yourself?
jesus christ

Whatever you say, young one. Go jack off to SpaceX. Goodbye!

Won't change anything until we get SAO-tier interaction.

alright, well you better go suck a tree off & get your daily sap bro

in a sense it WILL be natural, I think that when it's realistic enough people will start to accept the virtual realities as more or less the 'real world.' if that makes sense.

TFW the Matrix could literally be our future.

> I think that when it's realistic enough people will start to accept the virtual realities as more or less the 'real world.'

I think you're right. It doesn't have to be perfect technology. When it's "close enough" and the average guy is banging HB10s it will be widely accepted and preferred by some to actual reality.

If VR games are even half as fun as Moonbase Alpha, then I'm sold.

it's no ones fault if you live in a shit pond

who the fuck is going to live in space, and to what end? who wants to live in a totally hostile zone forever with nothing to sustain ourselves?

what are you going to eat? rocks? you need plants. metal cant make biological matter from itself.

in the end it will be a place that will reciprocate earth. just live on earth already. your space dream is only novelty but wont sustain humanity for long and ultimately people will long to live on earth once again, where they belong.

what will you replace forests by? glowing lights? streets? after a while you will all long for nature and life. underage dumbass. get banned.

Will be amazing for design/engineering applications.

Being able to input designs through a more intuitive interface would drive the costs of design and prototyping way down.

Shitposting with a Hitler avatar in a 3D vr sandbox environment will be fun

I am going to let the tech advance a bit more before starting up a "Most Dangerous Game" VR game, where you can hunt various creatures in various environments, allow players to mod it any way they want

>I am going to let the tech advance a bit more before starting up a "Most Dangerous Game" VR game, where you can hunt various creatures in various environments with your waifu, allow players to mod it any way they want

Sounds good. Godspeed, brother.

I'll be sure to add that feature you for you m8, vr raifus and waifus for everyone

The impact of VR is going to be at least equal to the PCs and internet, is going to be a total revolution:
> All computer applications in a virtual environment.
> Games
> Virtual sex.
>Real time simulations.
>3D modelling in industry, education, medical applications...
This is just beginning.

That gif is fucking with head.

Yup, get in at the ground level now, in 15 years from now it's going to be next level
