The reality distortion field better be at record levels next week because I still don't get this headset stuff. I'd understand it as an R&D side project to be ready for 15-20 years from now when battery/compute tech might be ready. But this moonshot approach of throwing tons of resources at it and shipping something maybe even this year? Just don't see it working out.
Jay 🆘@paul It's not coming. Brace for the avalanche of articles next Monday talking about how it's "facing further delays."
@paul There is no "killer app," nobody wants a face computer, and Apple has been beating the drum of *augmented* reality, not *virtual* reality, but people talk about them interchangably.
AT MOST it's a device aimed at AR developers to give them a common, predictable environment on which to test complex interactions for use on other or future devices.
But I'm also prepared to be 100% wrong.
samf@jsit @paul The largest hint I've seen in favor of a headset incoming: Sean Murray, founder of Hello Games (No Man's Sky), has a habit of tweeting relevant emoji before an update. Today, it was an apple. And NMS has a strong Playstation VR presence already. Could be trolling, of course!
@jsit @paul https://youtu.be/YdjLewAzVZQ it was that
Also: honestly, why would anyone game on a Mac these days?

@samf Because it’s the biggest screen you have capable of playing games maybe? Even if you have an Apple TV, a lot of big games never come there. Someone with an iMac who likes games might just be waiting for something to come to them and be grateful for this.
@samf “I like games and I have an iMac but I’m not going to drop hundreds of dollars on a console.”
I imagine a lot of Mac users might not even have a TV.
