Readit NewsIt will be more convincing than any argument I can make.
It will also eat your soul a little. Sorry about that.
A few anecdotal experiences on help desk for, at most, a few companies, don't really change that.
Regular, normal people on the street use 'Google' as a verb for 'searching on the internet'.
So… why delivery and why a list?
What is this right now other than a social interaction about a piece of media (the article)? This is a very arbitrary distinction for you to draw.
Besides even the very top end headsets are still pretty early in terms of tech. Extremely narrow tunnel vision FoV that doesn't even come anywhere close to the 210 degrees required for full human vision, pixels visible on most and if they aren't you'll need an incredibly expensive rig to run those crazy resolutions at 90 fps. Games are also really pricey for what you get since they're targeting a niche market which by definition has to be loaded to be able to afford the setup anyway and has a sunk cost to justify. It's the console experience on PC. Plus you need to mount the trackers and find a way to manage that big fat cable for the headset, it's just piles and piles of expensive hassle for what's mostly still a gimmick.
I'm pretty sure it'll be pretty good a few generations of headsets in the future though, especially once on-the-level PC performance becomes more affordable and the game UX best practices improve. I'm glad the VR games industry is at least moving away from the dumb mandatory teleporting thing and letting people walk around normally now.
The most popular games consoles are the phones everyone has already, because they do other things, the game playing is effectively free. Not to mention that the games themselves have an upfront cost of $0 as well.
"Free" is hard to beat.
PCs are expensive. You spent ~$1500 on a good uptodate setup. Now a Valve Index will cost another $1000. Not worth it for the niche.
PSVR only requires a playstation 4 or 5 (depending on PSVR or PSVR2)
High end PC VR is expensive, yeah - but it's not been the only or even main choice for a while now.
