This seems to be very subjective. I can wear the Apple Vision Pro headset for hours without it feeling uncomfortably heavy. I'm not sure if that's because I just happen to have a good light seal fit, or if it's because I spend a lot of time in VR on other platforms and am more used to it?

Depends also on how you sit. If you've got straight posture sitting in an office chair the weight of the headset is not cantilevered. If it is the end of the day and you want to splay out on the couch and watch TV or play games it's a different thing entirely.

To watch a mini NBA game on your coffee table you aren't splayed on the couch leaning back.

What's a real sport?

Combat sports are legitimately greatly improved by VR. Football, futbol, cricket, baseball etc all best watched on TV. I've never enjoyed sitting on the field as much as a few rows above in the stands and VR would replicate that - in the best scenario of VR.

late to the party but theres a pretty cool group of ppl working on building a library of HD, spatial, ringside combat sports. these ppl seem like real fans. theyll chat with anyone about their process and seem excited to share a project that excites them.

called Vantage: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/vantage-official/id6698850979

at a closer look i dont think they even have a website. ive only seen them on reddit and now that i search i think they pretty much only exist there. despite that, whoever runs the account is nice, knowledgeable and responsive

it makes me, a college basketball fan, want to talk to some of the local smaller schools about a similar project
