skyfire Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 The problem with VR as of now it's just low poly square shaped everything being displayed. It is yet to get the realistic feel like real life. The moment it does people will go through existential crisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormyFire Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I think that it is very likely, with how much CGI technology has advanced, that it will be difficult to distinguish VR from real life at some point in the not-so-distant future. That seems a little... odd to me. I still haven't hopped on the VR bandwagon. ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kane99 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I imagine our brains work in vr similarly to how our brains act during general gaming. I remember hearing that gaming slowed down the brain, or the receptors weren't flaring as much while gaming. Don't quote me on that, as idk if that's true. But I swear I heard that gaming rests your brain somewhat. But yeah, if you're not moving around while in VR, I imagine it's different than when you are moving around. I think some people's brains don't realize what they see is fake, so it confuses them. That's why I think people fall for real if they in game.
