I would put it on VR having a grand total of 3 good applications: HL Alyx, VRChat and Beat Saber, one of which was doing the metaverse better than Facebook, and on a shoestring budget.

(I forgot sims).

Besides I wonder what does a company, whose entire product lineup revolves around looking cool and successful and admired in front of strangers with a product whose main mode of usage involves blindly flailing around in a room with a plastic box stripped to your face.

HL Alyx ruined most VR games for me because they never lived up to Half-Life, and no one but Valve could make such a high-profile game. VR is a genre that benefits A LOT from high budgets.

I enjoyed games like No Man's Sky in VR, but they just don't hit the same high notes.

Throw simming in there, too.
