I actually just got a Meta quest set in order to use an app that basically is a soccer / football simulator for training. I'm not interested in Meta's use case per se but I can see how VR can be immensely advantageous and beneficial as a simulator in preparing for certain real world activities such as athletics but also more high risk things like surgery or possible emergency situations or for police training, etc. In my experience so far, it has helped my soccer playing performance significantly since I am able to get a lot more reps in with my brain without exhausting the body.
