Ellen and Mike are here to try and answer one simple, but worrying, question: Is VR Dead? Dear viewers, it might be... youtu.be/8UEC9Sk640A

Text reads "VR is dead", Ellen looks shocked, Mike looks a bit sad, and a PSVR 2 headset has two crosses over its eyes like it's a dead cartoon character.

I always said, anything that makes even 1% of your audience sick - see also 3DTV - let alone the numbers VR does, will never succeed. Capitalism demands "we make it possible for everyone to own our product, and ideally everyone will". Was dying from birth. Simracing, Alyx and HZD are not enough.

Real paradox to it where theres a need to invest in AAA games for VR but not the immediate financial reward, so you end up with some great indie titles, some mildly goofy ones that are fun for a couple hours, and then trash whose only selling point is it being VR, which then shrinks the userbase

It feels like VR is mostly going towards fitness which makes it very niche and when you have one, there's little reason to get another. I think horror would work great, i played walking dead saints & sinners and still haven't gone past a part going into a school because it creeps me out too much 😅

Cyan Inc (the guys behind the Myst series of games, Obduction, and Firmament) have been including VR support up until now, but apparently won't be doing that in the future. I can't say I'll miss it (I don't have a VR headset), but it does feel like the end of an era.
