VR Fatigue Is Real — Pok Gai on Gamers Too Tired for the Matrix
VR was supposed to change gaming forever. Instead, it made everyone dizzy, broke, and blind.
Intro — The $700 Nose Sweat Simulator
Bro, every year they tell us VR is the future.
But when I put that $700 headset on, all I see is regret — and my own sweat dripping inside the lens.
It’s like paying premium to sit inside a rice cooker.
VR was supposed to make us “feel the game.”
All I feel is motion sickness, neck pain, and the urge to refund.
The Great VR Lie
Every tech bro on YouTube said, “This is it — this is gaming’s next chapter.”
Next chapter? Bro, this is an epilogue nobody reads.
We were promised Ready Player One. What we got was Laggy Player None.
Half the games look like PowerPoint slides in 3D, and the other half are “walking simulators” that make you throw up halfway through the living room.
And don’t get me started on the cables.
I bought wireless VR — still feels like I’m tied up by my ex.
Apple Vision Pro — Luxury Pain
Apple came in like, “You peasants don’t understand VR — try ours for $3,500.”
For what? Watching Netflix floating above your couch while your girlfriend leaves you because you look like Robocop with no job?
Bro, that’s not innovation. That’s insanity with nice design.
The Sweat Tax of the Future
Every VR game becomes a workout.
You can’t chill — you’re ducking, waving, stabbing ghosts like you’re in Mong Kok rush hour.
I didn’t sign up for Just Dance 2077. I just wanted to kill dragons and chill.
And don’t lie — we all tried VR porn once.
Then immediately realized: it’s not immersive, it’s embarrassing.
UI/UX Lesson — Stop Designing for Elon Musk
Every VR menu looks like it was designed by someone who’s never played a game.
You’re trying to type your name, and suddenly you punch your wall and summon Siri.
If your interface needs yoga practice, your product’s doomed.
Lesson for designers: fun should never require calibration.
Pok Gai Final Take
VR isn’t the future. It’s a fever dream that refuses to die.
Pok Gai Gamer’s law: if you need a manual to have fun, it’s not fun — it’s a tech demo pretending to be culture.
The only reality I want?
A game that works on launch.

Q: Does VR have a future?
Sure, when it stops needing a PhD to set up and a towel to survive.

Because it’s effort, not fun. Nobody wants to sweat for Skyrim.
