Hard disagree. VR is niche to be sure but it's still developing well and overall on the up.

VRs only problem is that the games are still effectively tech demos. It's coming along nicely.

There is an actual argument to be made that shooters are training for war. I've found myself falling naturally into real tactical movements and trying to tuck my legs at odd angles behind cover.

One, Subnautica's VR mode is unfortunately barely functional trash, but Elite's is great, can't comment on NMS.

Two it's a travesty that boneworks isn't on that list of excellent fully fledged be games.

Again I'd disagree. Many of the games are fully fledged games, not tech demos. The low hanging fruit is obviously Half Life Alyx but there are feature complete indie VR games too.

Imagine needing vr for action course training, y’all faggots are still a long ways from real combat training. Vr combat training is to focus on desensitization not actual positioning.

It's cheaper because you can change up your virtual environment with little to no cost. The reason the US army uses simulators for a decent amount of its training is it saves a lot of money in ammo and setting up ever changing environments. It won't be long before it is used in law enforcement training.
