Here's my predictions:
In 2017, Virtual Reality gaming is pretty mainstream. Still, a lot of people still play off-VR, because they prefer more casual controlled gaming instead of that all-dominating VR experience. Some Gamers are directly hostile toward VR-gaming, and argues that off-VR is the only way to play.
The resolution in VR helmets has evolved, so that old "screen door effect" is now tinted with the same nostalgia as pixelart.
A few indie retro games picks up that old virtual reality cyberspace trope. A recursive gimmick where the player can pick up a VR helmet inside the VR-game.
VR porn and VR cam girls are no longer news. It is now so old hat that various TV-shows picks it up.
A few intellectuals are looking into what effect VR have on the human mind, and they make some really thought provoking discoveries. But they are mostly ignored.
What says you?
