It's heavy and the extra encumbrance is not great for general purpose computing, though I never felt the need for extra screen real estate while I'm coding, watching youtube, sending emails etc.

That said I still use my AVP regularly, it's a great home theater system for 4k HDR content that's portable for travel. I've owned other headsets like the valve index but the novelty of 3d gaming wore off pretty quickly.

VR gaming is in a weird state because a lot of devs still haven't gotten over the hill of trying to design everything almost exactly the same as PC games despite the fundamentally different paradigm.

For an example of what I mean, compare a game that actually embraces the medium like Gorilla Tag to the endless numbers of "PC FPS, but in VR with nausea-inducing stick movement" shooter games that don't.
