The key to VR mainstream adoption is NOT hardware.
It’s NOT about cheap or expensive VR Headsets.
Wireless or Wired.
4k or 8k graphics.
The key to VR mainstream adoption is quality VR games and experiences.
Why buy a virtual reality system when there is no amazing content available?
Don’t get me wrong. There are some games and demos available that use the power of VR but few exist today.
“I can’t point to a single piece of content that would cause millions of people to justify changing their home computing. If you took the existing VR systems and made them 80 percent cheaper, that’s still not a huge market. There’s still not a really incredibly compelling reason for people to spend 20 hours a day in VR… There’s an old joke that premature cost reduction is the root of all evil.”
– Gabe Newell, Co-Founder of Valve
Elixir VR’s Premium Roomscale VR Experience
Elixir VR is an LA based VR start-up. Elixir’s mission is to merge the best of storytelling with a brand new medium, VR. Cutting edge immersive technologies are being utilized to offer a new class of experiences.
ELIXIR VR will be launching game engine based narrative experiences on VR platforms. Starting with Foreverse, a story about the existence of reality.
Agent Jackson and his partner Stanton are sent in to capture Kevin, a non-player entity who’s somehow become sentient. That discovery sets off a chain of events that threaten the existence of not just the virtual world, but objective reality as well. Ultimately, the show explores the possibility that perfecting our own simulation is humanity’s ultimate endgame. It’s “The X Files” meets “Ready Player One”.
Foreverse will also be available in a social environment, so friends can watch and experience our content together!
Fans interested in experiencing an early taste of “Foreverse” will have an opportunity this weekend at VRLA, one of the largest virtual reality expos in America. This year’s event will be held April 14th & 15th at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California.

“We are incredibly excited to be participating in this year’s expo. And we look forward to offering VR enthusiasts a sneak peek at the show!”
– Chris W. Hill
The team at Elixir VR mentions:
We already have a lot of work completed on episode 1. But there is work still left to do to complete the first season. There are technical challenges still to be addressed and writing for the back episodes is in process.
As with any project, there are risks involved and delays are possible. We are a professional team of creatives with many years of experience working in Hollywood. With your help, season 1 will be a reality, and it’s going to be amazing.
Other than the research and training benefits the center is also projected to create 325 jobs and $40 million in economic growth for the area.
