Will An Xbox Virtual Reality Headset Ever Become A Reality?

1. If they could use their cloud tech to make a Vr cloud gaming headset that would be something. But that is something we are a little ways off from now

2. I don’t think it is sad at all, VR is a very novel experience that most people have tired of. It is good once in a while for certain things, but no one wants to wear that for extended periods of time.

3. xbox is going to be waiting for a while for the ratio of vr player sand pc players to be smaller.

4. If they wait until there's a sizable market for them to enjoy…
   the only markets will be those that already exist.

5. What would be the smartest thing for Microsoft to do right now imo is get into talks with Meta to get official Quest support on the Series. It would help boost Quest sales, allow Xbox to stay competitive in the VR space, all while reducing the costs and risks that are associated with it.

6. At this point it feels like WE are paying to beta test these products. I'm sure at some point "Ready Player One" will exist but maybe flush out the bugs and kinks before you release it. I'm willing to pay for a clunky product IF it has value. There isn't enough content or functionalities to these products at this point to justify paying $2k and up.
   Focus on software. Develope practical content. Like vr theaters, floor seats to a bball game… etc
   That's when ppl will flock to these products

8. It sucks, but it makes sense. Facebook and Sony are the only two companies actively pushing for VR to be mainstream. And while they have seen their own success in one form or another, the fact that the most successful headset of all time (the Quest 2) has only sold 20 million units over its entire lifespan and has serious user retention issues is not good for long-term viability.

9. VR is still pretty niche, and a waste of resources.
