1 My first impression of VR was not that good after my first attempt lasted about 60 minutes. At the end of that time,I decided that it wasn't for me and I sold my headset for more than I paid for it.
2 That was a few years ago and the headset I used was the PSVR. Yes, I could have gone for one of the more advanced headsets but, at the time, my PC wasn't up to it. I thought that a quick win with a PSVR could satisfy my curiosity (好奇心), but I was wrong.
3 In 2019, with the appearance of a lot of new headsets, I decided that, maybe, it was time to try VR again. I chose to use the Bigscreen app to watch movies to feel as if I were at the cinema. What was interesting for me was to see what the actual quality was like but, importantly, what kind of experience you could have. Yes, for someone who doesn't always like the movie-going experience, this could have turned out to be the best of both worlds. I didn't have to spend money on expensive snacks(小吃) and parking and I didn't have to put up with bad smells.
4 I have to say that the whole VR experience has improved quite a lot. Yes, things have improved, but it's not perfect. In fact, I don't think we've reached the “good enough” stage (阶段) yet.
5 As for other VR apps, I once told a well-known editor that VR was promising. He just looked at me with a look that said, “It is never gonna happen.” Well, the time has come, and you can actually do this now.
6 VR isn't for everyone, I understand, but it can be a choice for some. I'd like to think that the next generation of headsets will improve some of the problems that we're still seeing.
