Just a niche right now , but I (stereo-typically) believe that VR will blow up in gaming in the next 10 years , most believe that the current gen (Oculus Quest 2 as the leading headset) is already all that VR has to offer , but having experienced the higher end headsets myself its a night/day difference in immersion and entertainment.
When we start having consumer 200 degree field of view headsets with great controls and visuals , VR will absolutely dominate entertainment compared to where its at right now

100% agree. VR/AR gaming will be insane in 2030. Almost as good as the game we’re in right now

Is there any way to fix motion sickness from VR?
NoName847 t1_j10g6im wrote
I hope there will be eventually , my theory is that the more realistic your brain believes the virtual reality is , the less you're victim to motion sickness , so hopefully it'll cure itself with improved tech
its also not a problem for many I believe , me and my friends never had any motion sickness regardless of game from the very start

No, the issue is in the motion mostly. Even in real life if you moved floating like that without actually walking the brain would be confused too. There are solutions like multidirectional treadmills but that's too expensive and wouldn't fit in an apartment. Or teleporting instead of moving like many games do, but that's not an elegant solution.

I have not tried VR in recent times but I am prone to vertigo due to a head injury years back and I’ve always been sensitive to things like car sickness. I do not know if that means I’ll have VR motion sickness or if there’s no relation.

Same I have never had motion sickness, though I feel like Im going to land on my ass if the movment or walking in game is done poorly. It really can be hard to stand up striaght.

Vr/ar is definitely the next big thing in my opinion. Lots of cool research going into it, which can primarily be seen by Meta and other companies that are starting to follow. One thing that is also interesting is the potential removal of controllers as seen with the EMG demonstrations meta has shown after they acquired CTRL labs. Pretty cool stuff honestly.

the EMG videos are great wow , didnt know about that! Personally im also really really excited for apples headset that seems to get revealed really soon, I dont plan to buy it, and I think for us normal VR fans right now its not too interesting, but apple has such a good record of introducing new tech in the mainstream, if their headset actually delivers we will see massive massive growth in the space, more users, more investors, more competitors, so exciting!

Oh yeah, for sure. I think all the rumors I've seen are talking about how apple plans to reveal their headset early January so I'm definitely excited for it. I'm pretty sure google and samsung are also working on headsets to release soon, and the more I look at it, so this field is seemingly going to blow up soon.
