If you tried Half-life: Alyx and don't find it revolutionary then I'd be curious to know what's enough for you. It's not popular, sure, but it doesn't mean the quality of the few experiences that do exist aren't legitimate.
AR is going to become a big thing, the hardware just needs to get there first (and it is indeed getting closer)
This has been the case the entire time, it's always been a promising technology. It's not a new thing at all (then again, neither were LLMs, really. Most people just didn't have this insight into the field)
