Not all are dumbed down and we are still in the infancy of it. Would you forsee the state of VG today by looking at Pong?

Actually yes. At the time that blew people away.

Of people I know who own VR headsets (including myself) we are underwhelmed at best. Not saying it is not cool sometimes but I do not think it will ever go mainstream. VR is just one of those things that sounds way cooler on paper than it is in reality and almost every VR game I have played is way dumbed down compared "normal" games. The vast majority of games will not work in VR.

If you enjoy it by all means continue to enjoy it but I think it will forever stay a niche. 

So you want to say that back in the 70's people imagined that gaming would be like what it is today? Don't force it.

People were blew away because there were nothing similar. Today you are going back in the IQ and complexity of games to add VR so you feel you are losing. But when we look at people that never experienced VR before and aren't gamers, even rollercoaster simulators make them speachless.
