they got trolled by motion sickness and carpal tunnel
If you got carpal tunnel using VR I need to ask: How the hell do you use your hands, man?
vr glasses also have controller buttons dont they. If the implied activity would give men carpal tunnel though I think we would all be miserable by now
They do; but you're not crunching down the carpal tunnel with how they're used. Your wrist is unimpeded and doesn't have to be straight forward in front of you at all times, like a keyboard and mouse at a desk. Controllers themselves don't cause carpal tunnel; it's how you hold and move your wrists around. In fact, controllers can help alleviate carpal tunnel because you can use them in a variety of comfortable ways. You also don't need them at all with some HMDs. The Vision Pro is all hand control, no buttons.
The motion sickness thing is totally real though. I've used VR for two years and I still sometimes have to stop and dry heave.
The only version I saw was Samsungs which had side roller wheel kind of buttons and the moment I saw it I was like "o-oh carpal tunnel"
