Are you really ignoring most of my post? I'm talking about devices or clothing which are necessary or helpful to enjoy a hobby. For example swimming or diving goggles which aren't safety precautions. These goggles help you to see underwater and help you to enjoy swimming, diving and snorkeling. A VR headset helps you to see the content of a virtual world, where you can look in every direction of that virtual world with stereoscopic depth perception. It helps to "put you in this world" instead of looking through a tiny window into this world. It also helps to be impressed by the the scale of some virtual worlds or the scale of some creatures in this virtual world, f. e. the size of Trico in "The Last Guardian VR Experience" or huge rock walls, deep gorges and big ancient machines in "Obduction". Climbing the giant (and fast growing) plant in "Astro Bot" lets you fells like Jack in "Jack and the Beanstalk". |
I'm not ignoring anything and yes water goggles have multiple uses and one of them is safety as they prevent things from getting in your eyes but that's besides the point.
Just because helmets/goggles are useful or necessary for certain activities doesnt really change the fact that some people find VR headsets to be unappealing or that they dont make the experience more immersive for them.
Like I just dont get your counter point,
Curl: "i dont like having a screen strapped to my face"
You: "ya well helmets are good protection and goggles help you see in water"
Is that supposed to make him think twice about his personal feelings towards VR?
