VR Is So Fun It's Sickening!

VR comfort settings ruin some experiences.

Jamie proposes that the storefronts and reviewers should be picking up the tab, and I honestly agree with him a bit on this subject. We should curate more. We should guide new users more. However, I would like to focus on what the VR industry already does and what can be done and why not to do it. At the end of this article, I'll give two ways I personally can help with the issue.

WTF Happened November 2024

There's a lot to unpack.

OK! Phew! I dug myself out of a rut this week after what seemed like the end of the world! Well, the end of the U.S.A. I grew up in.
