I thought the same, then lockdown happened. I was unable to freely roam the streets for weeks. I would have loved a really good VR experience to escape to. We need to support new developments so we get to our goal of truly immersive tech, VR or AR depending on the application.
Sure, I completely agree. There are many fields where those technologies will be able to do great job.
I just doubt the very big vision of "immersive revolution", as I think that most usages will be strictly for entertainment, and some more specific cases like therapies and simulations.
In the past it would require hiring an entire vfx team. And this is just interacting with more or less static content. Things get even more interesting with dynamic systems where you adjust one parameter of the system and the entire world around you changes.
For me it's a quite distracting experience (the whole AR part, with glitches and lack of background). I think that well-done animation could be much better (and would't require more effort)

Try doing this without AR -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dKNbRRRFhqY

Why not jobs? I can certainly see a whole new cyber economy cropping up to cater to the whims of cyber denizens.
Why would the ‘caterer’ need to be in a VR experience themselves for that?
