Is AR this generations VR? Full of promises and fantasy, but all of which is far from being usable or practical at any mainstream level.

Is AR this generations VR? Full of promises and fantasy, but all of which is far from being usable or practical at any mainstream level.
- Robotbeat 7y agoLess practical than VR. VR has a niche.
- Animats 7y agoIt's a very small niche, and it peaked around the 2017 holiday season. The VR game thing didn't sell. Except for Beat Saber. John Carmack, in a recent talk, doesn't seem to consider VR as a way to visit a virtual environment any more. It's just a way to get a wider field of view of screen space in a mobile-sized package. Watching Netflix with VR goggles emulating a wide screen, for people who don't have enough space for a wide screen, is seen as a primary use.
