No, I’ve never tried VR. High or low end. (maybe once at a trade show, can’t recall what it was).
I can for sure see applications like the 3D design/environment applications you mention.
From my un-experienced POV, I just can’t see the mass market adoption as much. At least in terms of entertainment I see the biggest challenge as the lean in vs. lean back experience. Most people want to lean back and experience watching a show, vegging on the sofa, not doing work, moving around, putting on gear for an experience. It’s the biggest reason I think 3D sucked. Gotta find the glasses, gotta find the appropriate content… not the same as browsing netflix or TV for something mindless to watch or binge on. I’m not a gamer however so maybe there’s opportunity there…
