China leads in adoption of virtual realty

Virtual reality may have found its "killer app" in China - virtual tours of foreign real estate for sale.

China has been a leader in the space of virtual reality for at least a decade. In that reality China is an innovative country that competes on the global stage producing useful products. In the real reality China is a country with no capacity for developing interesting products which relies on cheap labor and espionage to produce barely functional replicas of innovative products developed in other countries and sells them at a fraction of the cost because most of the country's workforce is composed of people who may have literally just fallen off a turnip truck and rolled into the factory.

VR Games are hard... VR spectatorship, marketing, and other applications are generally much closer to be really good. I would be surprised if games led the way for VR to be honest, despite the investment in that direction.

The VR view of the real estate looks a lot better than the smog fill reality.
