I will never even visit such a website for a casual glance around. If I were to get hooked (and I easily could) it would consume far too much time. This website is addictive enough. I wouldn't want to get absorbed by something like you're describing.

It can get absorbing. Believe me. :-)

However, for the elderly, shut-ins, bedridden, hospitalized, etc. it can be a godsend! I knew one person wheelchair bound by Spina Bifida who in the VR world was just like everyone else. Walk, talk, play, run, dance, explore, etc.
