I really hate the overall form factor of these things. The future is more and more powerful devices in smaller and smaller tech. Sleek and subtle, not clunky and ostentatious. I can't believe this is the same society that 10 years ago saw the google glass as a conceptual failure. At most with the google glass you looked a bit like a dork, but with the vision pros you look like a gormless twat.
Wearing a VR headset in public is like wearing a big kick me sign telling to the world "I am suggestible and easy to part with my money, please mug me". A VR headset in private is useless because I already have a desktop at home that can o what it does 10x better (and doesn't cost $3500).
