The future of XR games
summary
Argues AR is farther along in adoption because phones let everyone try spatial experiences now, while headsets remain bulky and cause motion sickness until lighter, wireless units like Oculus Santa Cruz arrive; predicts cloud + 5G will offload rendering. Highlights privacy and social-design problems, shows AR’s utility (education, industrial training, contextual info) and entertainment crossover, cites indie wins as real — for example Beat Saber by three devs — and treats ARKit/ARCore and Magic Leap as important stepping stones toward an AR cloud future.
