These AR/VR are definitely a doomed profile unless somehow these things were given away for basically free. IMHO success for any new technology usually comes from: 1. Does it make you look more attractive? NO 2. Does it make you money? NO except for the YouTubers who will surely be pandering about how meme they are. How many streamers us VR? Oh yeah... 3. Does it make me more valuable to others? No? I can't see a mass adoption are where having a computer strapped to your face which enhances your productivity. This may be the area most attackable by some great use cases, but I don't see them today (once again, mass market in a way that Apples of the world would give an F).
