I haven't sought out and read a review or a tweet since.

Virtual reality is a truly immersive medium and the level of graphics, already quite strong, will only continue to get better and better. You really feel like you are someplace else...and what you see, what you experience, it impacts your brain.

Going back to something very old knit into the brain as we were growing. Hopeless. Scorching. Ordinary.
