Hi /lit/ Would you pay 5000$ to convert your novel to VR-Bo

No, I don't want light from pixels beaming an inch from my fucking eyes for hours on end.

>spend $5000
>only ~120 people or so purchase it (being really generous to myself here)
>reviews lean towards negative and mixed because everyone feels like its a gimmick
>my writing isn't and never will be appreciated / given any serious though
>purchases halt
>everyone realizes book vr was a shit idea in general
Nah

Hi, what is the point of a vr book?

>>7996477
I'd just wait and see if it got popular enough to justify 5k

>>7996523
you read a book in VR environments from the book

>>7996907
Why not have audiobook vr then?
That way you can listen and look around, perhaps even interact on a basic level with some things or environments, instead of looking at a virtual book.

>>7996920
it's audiobook as well, forgot to mention

This technology seems promising, but I think I'll hold off until they somehow manage to completely eliminate the reader's imagination from the process of reading altogether.

>>7996477
sounds like a fucking scam to me.

>>7996477
another trendy shit. Will die out soon with neck pain.

Hi /lit/, would you pay 5000$ for a limited run, artist edition of your novel?

VR Moby Dick
>walk around ship doing menial tasks while Ishmael follows you, shoving pictures of whales in your face, freaking out over 2000 year old stories that use the word whale, and having an absolute shit fit about misrepresentations of whales and whaling equipment in literature, until he's literally screaming in your face like you did something wrong.
>NO HONOR IN WHALING!?
