They (the industry) keep fiddling with trying to make the hardware better and more accessible even though it's already in a good spot there, instead of making killer apps that warrant getting the hardware in the first place. It's a fucking insane catch 22.

Consumers aren't buying the hardware even though there are affordable options mostly because there isn't anything to really use it for (along with a probably non-negligible number of users who won't get certain products over privacy concerns).

Game makers aren't making games for VR because the saturation of the hardware isn't high enough.
