I feel like I age 10x faster in VR. I feel like VR sucks the lifeforce out of me. As the light from VR shines into my eyes, my brain is slowly getting fried.
I genuinely feel that the longer I stay in VR, the lesser my potential as a human becomes.
Update Oct 2024
I wrote the above around 4 years ago when I was doing heavy VR development in the quest 2. Since then, I’ve continued to be a heavy fan of what is possible through metaversal technologies, and as a result have continued doing stuff in VR. I’ve tried:
- Quest 2
- Quest 3
- Apple Vision Pro
- Hololens 1
- Hololens 2
- XReal Air 2
I truly believe this is the future, and we are just getting to the point where mass consumer use is a possibility.
