I don't like Zuckerberg gettings his kike hands on VR but I own a headset (not his the fatman's) and it's not some society destroying technology (and I'm not sure it will ever be). It's something you can do for an hour or two at a time, if the game doesn't induce horrible VR sickness. Racing games will have you wanting to blow chunks in 5 minutes or less, I worked my way up to about 30-45 minutes in Pavlov (VR counterstrike basically). Most of the better games are either aerobics intensive, arcade party experiences, or very slow, interactive and gimmicky. When you add VR to a typical FPS game it becomes an intense horror experience that you can play for an hour or two at most. Watching a movie is immersive and fun for a bit but the weight/heat/cable of the headset are distracting and the resolution is worse than you would get on your monitor. Maybe in 10 years the augmented aspects will be better, resolutions will be higher and headsets will be smaller/lighter but even still your going to have traversal and sickness. It's cool, I enjoy playing minigolf on it, I have a good aerobics game (but you sweat buckets into your goggles), super hot is a great party game, Alyx is terrifying and memorable in a way that most games can't touch, the girls love to play the 'object sandbox' games like Job/Vacation Sim and Baby Hands. It's just not some black hole you are going to loose yourself in forever, if anything it's healthier video games with a built in biological time limit.
