I don’t know what they expected. That’s exactly what I thought it would be: a nice expensive toy if I didn’t care about money. If I had insane disposable income, I absolutely would’ve bought one. It’s an incredibly impressive machine even if it is overpriced. But from the get-go it was clear that the market would be super small, so how many things would truly be utilizing it? It’s not like there’s a single game that really pushes it to its limits.
Anyway yeah, I would’ve got it because I like VR it’s fun to tinker with. It would be cool to have a really fucking nice headset. Even just to experiment with the productivity tools and such. I like messing with stuff like that.
