| RolStoppable said: It is probably a cop-out. Microsoft's Xbox guys don't seem to get much money anymore - hence why PlayStation gets virtually all the marketing deals for third party games - and going all-in with VR can't be enticing when all kinds of VR solutions have fallen short of analysts' expectations. |
Yeah those crazy expectations hurt more than fire up the market.
It's not all that bad though https://uploadvr.com/idcs-data-shows-vr-not-dying-not-even-close/
It seems to be growing fine for an expensive and still 'hard to grasp for many' format.
VR isn't going anywhere, but I understand the hesitation to spend a lot of effort on expensive add-ons. It might be the replacement for gaming on tv for me, yet the majority still sees it as merely a peripheral. Perhaps that will change over time with more things like this for example https://uploadvr.com/oculus-equipping-california-libraries-rift-touch/ And with bigger games ofcourse. Chicken and egg problem, need more chickens to get more eggs, something like that.
MS sees more value in selling to businesses for now, their bread and butter. The Xbox guys had their fun, the bigwigs get first dibs this time.
