   I tried VR and, as many others have said, it's a novelty that wears thin quickly.

   I'm amazed though at the amount of effort and corporate money that keeps being thrown at VR trying to make it a thing.

   It feels like, to the public, it's like some tired The Beverly Hillbillies re-run that keeps popping up from time to time.

      The younger generation uses VR a lot. It's like Nintendo in the 80s.

         Who?

         I have a teenager and a 9 year old and I've never heard this from anyone.

         I think nintendo for that generation is nintendo switch. Or roblox.

            Gorilla Tag alone has millions of monthly active users.

               3 million. Roblox apparently has about 380m.
