Virtual Reality, good, bad or both?

I'd say both.

The potential is staggering of what it could be used for.
But at the same time a very likely result is that the majority of people end up slaves to their vr systems, having to leave home less than ever before, and leading to even greater alienation than previously seen.

Its amazing. It is so versatile. Ive been trained by it. So many realistic military shooters. Also, terminal patients who want to see the world. VR chat rooms can put two lovers thousands of miles apart in the same room, instantly. So many applications.

I like real reality better! I think some people will pee and poop themselves and worse , but others will be able to handle it as it get's more and more "real" more people will succumb to worst case scenario. Like anything else in life , those who practice moderation and responsibility will be fine, and those who don't won't.

That's what they used to say about television.

@Glossy True, and it's similar, although VR is even more overhelming in terms of attraction.

You should be more worried about social media, that's far more ubiquitous and pernicious.
