VEs are great for applications beyond gaming. Especially cheap and accessible VEs. Yeah, the technology has existed for a long time, but it was always expensive. Very expensive. Now it will be available much more cheaply.

One application is therapy, for example to combat phobias. So you show someone with a fear of public speaking (to the extent where they have panic attacks) a room full of people and let them speak. This is already in use, but mostly done in front of monitors.

No, not world changing but still very cool.
