People use helmets all the time for extended periods of time. I'm not sure that's such a deal breaker.

I don't want to wear glasses for extended periods of time either, but I've had to get used to them.

The risk/reward tradeoff of helmets is potentially dying, and we still had to make laws requiring people to wear them.

Glasses also have a pretty compelling reason to wear them.

I don't think VR has as compelling of a reason, at least so far. Even if it does, you need people to get far enough in to see that reason which is a hurdle when it involves a device they don't want to wear.
