Wait...but...using video games to take yourself out of reality requires immersion. What VR offers is better immersion. There literally isn't a better way to use video games to remove yourself from reality. |
Well, maybe I didn't express myself correctly.
It's not like I live in a dirthole with mildew and bats on the walls, that I have to completely escape my living room. I need an hour to play a game and think about the tasks within it, so I really don't need to be completely cut off from the real world to enjoy myself.
Immersion as well, when I play a game I know I'm playing a game, it's not like I really think I'm in a game. VR will be the same thing as now for me, with only a $300 helmet to weigh me down (both gravitationally and financially).
(That's why I will never understand those people who say they are too scared to play horror games like PT. Do they not realize it is a fictional game and that nothing will happen to them?)
