On one hand I think people figuring out how to create new gaming experiences with Occulus is super cool.
Linking the breath to a VR experience might be enough for some people to get into the lower jhanas and have some fun, which seems to be happening a lot. Framing an experience with Occulus creates an environment conducive to concentration, like a flashy flotation tank. I recall a paragraph in Daniel's book: he imagines a world where some basic level of non-sectarian mind-instruction was available to everyone, and perhaps VR can be a part of that world.
On the other hand, I also recall a (longer, more emotional) paragraph in Daniel's book. It included the phrase "STAY THE FUCK OUT OF THE DARK NIGHT". Very likely a bunch of people play this game and chance into some scary stuff they can't explain/figure out.
Anyway, thought I'd share.
Gonna go post my retreat plans now.
Cheers,
D
