In 180 degrees, yea. Full 360 degrees is a waste.
I don't think it's the future of gaming but VR definitely has a future. After playing RE7 on the PSVR I have to say it was the most immersive and intense gaming experience I've ever experienced. Obviously, there currently aren't many games out on PSVR that reach that same quality but if more of them start hitting the market, it will be hard to go back to "normal" gaming for me.
Yes it has it's place in the future of gaming.
But it's like saying "online is the future of gaming" 15 years ago ... not every game is online or has a heavy online component.
Playing VR games this gen though is hands down the most "revolutionary" feeling of the gen by a long ways. It's the first thing that feels legitimately new in a long time.
Eventually all major games will be VR exclusive. There will still be indies that build traditional 2D and 3D games, but if you want to play Madden, Call of Duty, Grand Theft Auto, Gran Turismo, Halo, Mario, ect. it is going to be a VR experience. RE7 proved just how much better VR makes even a traditional game, with a traditional controller. Once you have played a game in VR, everything else feels massively limited.
Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

VR like 3D will always be around now but there is zero chance of it being the future of gaming. gaming like movies etc appeals to many people because they can sit back, relax and relatively passively immerse themselves into it, VR and 3D are about active immersion, definitely has its appeal for some people but it is more niche with some novelty gimmick value similar to how 3D TV's started before they died completely. VR is simply one small aspect of gaming and any developer that relies on it as their only avenue for games is going to find themselves lacking a consumer.

errr not every VR content requires active movement (even re7 doesnt need any of that) and you can actually use VR while sitting or even laying on your bed. There's a drifting issue but it can be fixed with firmware.
I wouldn't say it's the future.
But I would say it has a part to play in the future.

No sarcasm, just how it is. as VR/AR headsets improve and drop in price, the point of having a monitor/tv gradually becomes less and less important. I'm fairly certain within our lifetime, we will move on from monitors/tv's to personal, high definition displays, and the TV/monitor as we currently know it will still be around but used much less. There was a time, not all that long ago, back when the world was shifting from CRT to LCD that people proclaimed LCD too expensive to succeed and that it would never become as popular as the standard CRT - these days barely anyone has a CRT, that same shift in technologies can and will happen again. |
LCD's where an improvement over CRT's, in many ways. But didn't change the quick interactions. You walked in, turn it on, done. It requires NOTHING ELSE, for you to do. To fully make VR work. It requires this: Same price, The VR goggles have to be the size of 3D glasses. Zero sensors. 100% flawless movement tracking. Who the hell wants to setup that crap. Or even move stuff around a room, to get it it to just work. But, than you are also dealing with laziness. And people who wear glasses, too. When a TV on a wall, is faster. And doesn't cause the other issues I mentioned before. It also has one built in hinderance. Another person can't use it, at the same time. A TV doesn't have that problem. It adds more issues, than benfits.
