The safeguarding lead at Ellis' nursery once came out at pickup to talk to me. "Ellis has been talking about Colin. He says he shouts loudly, threatens to kill people, and he and Ellis play with guns in the garden." I explained Colin was a Dalek. There was a pause. "Is he a real Dalek?" #DoctorWho

VR isn't dead, but it's not growing. It's not just about price either. Comfort being downplayed (or even vilified) poisoned the well and made it less approachable than ever. You can track the decline of hardware adoption 1:1 with comfortable games falling out of the top selling charts.
