I've been thinking about this for a while.
There's this bizarre gap in direction for where VR feels like it's heading and where it should be heading. And it comes down to every VR headset is very tied to its own platform. You can't expect to plug in any random device into a Rift. You can't plug in a Rift to your PS4 and it takes a little bit of work to plug in your PSVR to your PC.
I think it's pretty clear that the future should include these devices broadcasting to whatever VR headset.
The downsides of how it's being done right now, mean that the platforms are fragmented from each other, but they're also in a weird space where they simultaneously can do way more than a TV can do but they also can't do as much.
