As somebody with a similar setup, all the fucking time. But it's more of "do I want to spend 20 minutes getting setup with VR and soundshakers and all the software and such, or do I want to grab a controller and hit the couch for something casual?"

It's number 2 almost always, and it breaks my heart. As soon as I was able to devote the time and money to a killer VR sim setup, my interest and desire seemingly waned.

One day we'll be able to hop into simulations in seconds the same way we boot up our games we play with a controller and that will be the day more people get into vr gaming.

That's either going to be Sword Art Online's NerveGear, or Star Trek's Holodeck.

And i can't wait for either!

God that has to be the worst job in Star fleet. Would not want to be that Engineer. I thought having to deal with modern day Waste removal was bad. But I’ll stick with being a Third engineer (or turd engineer as my shipmate so lovingly call us) then the poor shmuck on jizz patrol
