6 years later, and it seems like vr has gotten…stagnant. Not that there hasn't been innovation, definitely new headsets have come out, more companies stepping up to the ring, and the recent billion dollar investments from meta into eyeglass companies to create glasses-like xr headsets, but popularity has died down, retention on the oculus quest headsets is not great, and vr headsets are still ultimately uncomfortable to wear and require a decent amount of technical knowledge to set up for the average person, which are all barriers to entry. Also, it seems like vr and the "metaverse" has quietly dipped below mainstream discussions in light of the AI craze and the pandemic not making us as a society as reliant on technology for social interaction anymore. Very interesting times we live in, I really hope that this technology can come into the mainstream light again and people have that feeling of optimism again about what we can do, because there is an immense amount unexplored within this medium, it just needs more time and I personally think that it needs a BIG title, something which ideally combines everything together into one cohesive experience, kind of like a metaverse idea but with significantly more polish and care than it has been given in the past (cough cough meta horizons). Either way, enough of my rant and hello from a Quest 1 user in 2025 (lmao)

2 years today and VR hasn't died yet. Facebook has bought oculus, Apple is now jumping on. It's starting to grow, slowly, but it's still growing.
I don't see it stopping anytime soon.

virtual reality is becoming more affordable and the games are getting much better and longer, vr is well and truly alive and growing.

i think vr is very popular ever since the first oculus quest was released. Most people who didn't have a vr are people who weren't able to afford it, not a have a powerful enough pc, or enough room. Because of that first oculus quest headset vr is now affordable to many people of many salaries, and now with the quest 2 coming out and being even more powerful and cheaper as well, vr is going to become more popular than it already is

Noones got room for vr. Unless some massive shift in living space or the technology is developed to the point that it takes up less space then vr is going no where fast.

The people who say vr hasn't taken off quick enough really show the instant gratification people have come to expect. Vr has only been around in its modern form for what? A decade? Do they think home computers happened overnight?

VR is just too cool to die. I have had my Rift s since start April 2nr 2020. today is June 23rd, 2020. and I have been using my headset extensively without missing a single day.

If people are wanting to use vr company’s better work harder and better to keep people attention and also make it easier for people without pc’s to be able to say “I want a vr headset but I don’t know what I’m doing” and for them to go in a store and be like “this has everything I would like” and it’s affordable for them to buy

I’m 9 and skinny as heck and vr headsets are light. Very light, and you don’t need a pc or a lot of space, if you can stretch your arms out in 180 degrees then you can play vr. And I understand that some people don’t have their vr legs yet but you can develop your vr legs by exposing yourself little by little. So please don’t be a boomer and pick up a quest and try vr.

That was an amazing video you deserve soooo many more subscribers! I’m just getting into vr, I feel like so many people tried google cardboard found it was awful, and never gave you another chance. If everyone had tried something like an oculus quest, their perspective on VR would be so different.

No, VR is not dead, people still use it and I still use it, so shut the fuck up, your just a youtuber who loves to clickbait and make people upset, fuck you and shut your fat gob

Nice video. It's a shame that the answer to "what happened to VR" is that we're still many years if not decades away from it being good. I feel like we'll go down the Matrix route where we literally plug wires into our skull before they figure out how to do VR without the clunky TV screen strapped to our face and have a good game library going.
@daylenworth8956

And then all the headsets are sold out. They all died.

Anyone who thinks that VR isn't the future, is just being foolish. Sure maybe the headset is too big, the wires are a pain in the ass, the games are not as big or graphically intense as new 4K games, but all that will change in the next 10 years. As an early adapter of VR I can say this, the VR community is an amazing place. I've been a video gamer since the early 70's, I quit gaming a few years ago till viable VR came along. The gaming community got so toxic it was just a waste of time trying to find a few cool people among the idiots. Now there are VR communities where the assholes are the exception not the rule. I'm actually not looking forward to VR going mainstream as all that crap will eventually reach the VR community and take it over. But I do look forward to the new worlds that are coming.

When vr dies and lives again I believe that’s when it reaches its peak.
@shaydawes2735
August 28, 2025 at 4:37 pm
People really need to try it to understand it. How we look at vr is much different to others. Many don’t see the interactive side and their opinion is fueled by those very limited phone vr things that people used to use. Let’s hope it clears up and breaks through. I think, and hope, it’ll become mainstream
