i see it being a short lived fad,much like 3D gaming,personally

"I feel like it will be huge like the Wiimote was......."

Maybe with time. Depends on what price people can get it at.

"But then after a few years people will be done with it."

I dont agree with this.
I think its a paradigm shift.
Like when TVs first came out, people where probably saying something simular to what your saying now.
TVs are still here.

I think that's just it. We simply don't know yet. All I know is that I've seen this happen before. with the walkman, the iPod then the iPhone. All devices that at the time people couldn't wrap their heads around or had some major barrier of entry problem to overcome. But they did and that was it. 

it's not about people findig it different. It's that there are some experiences that can only happen with VR. There are things we do today that if done right in VR will forever change the way people "want to experience the same thing".

As of right now the biggest barrier is price and complexity. But I believe there is enough for VR to have a firm footing in the industry to build on. And there has never been new tech that came cheap to begin with. But as they become mainstream, those costs are absorbed and before you know it even the average Joe thinks they are normal. 

It will start slow and gain popularity along the way. It's here to stay this time, and at some point will overtake the traditional form of gaming for certain genres. It's still very early, yet when higher res glasses with eye tracking and foveated rendering come into play, VR games will also look much better than rendered on a screen.

I feel VR will have a place in the gaming industry eventually. Whether it will be in this current form we have, only time will tell.

I dont think it will even get as big as those things.

Its going to die out pretty fast given the high prices. Maybe it won't even take off. The userbase will be too tiny to make big projects viable, so its a gimmick. Complete waste of time in my opinion aswell. Just like 3D technology, its something that comes and goes periodicly.

Its only chance is the porn industry. Not so much for the PSVR though. That is dead on arrival.

^ this.

Its not a fad, its the oppersite.

It ll start slow and just grow and grow, then 12years from now, when we look back, we ll all be like (puts on grandpa voice):

"Yeah those where the days, back before gameing had VR, now everything is VR! I want the simpler times back" .

VR is true gaming immersion I hope it becomes the new standard !

Considering the price I think it'll be a slow burn, not a fad or gimmick. Considering the sheer potential and the way even the same game can feel completely different in VR I don't see it going away but slowly growing through word of mouth. Not to mention the sheer amount of potential for the movie industry to completely transform.

As the price of entry decreases in a few years time and developers/movie studios learn how to use the tech, it'll really start to take off.

In its current form, I don't really understand the appeal, to me it is literally holding the screen right up to ur face, I don't understand how it's going to change the way games are played or create new genres.

The only benefit I can see is adding immersion by not being distracted by ur surroundings, but other than that it seems like a novelty to me.
