I think Second Life illustrates the niche nature of VR. It has a place, some people love it, 98% of the population will never walk around in Google Glass. 40 years ago: 30 years ago: 27 years ago: pop culture has been trying to make virtual reality a thing for so long that one of the biggest sci fi movies in recent memory is nostalgia for VR: "Holodeck, awkward goggles, same/same" has been the refrain since before Star Trek was rebooted the FIRST time and fundamentally? Nobody wants it. Except those who do. And they don't give a shit if you don't, they sell real estate in Second Life, and have exactly zero interest in paying thousands of dollars for a shitty pokemon ripoff on the blockchain.
