I mean, I think it's fine as a gimmick for wealthy gamers, and it's been at that level for awhile.

As the future of gaming though? yeah, never gonna happen. M+KB is the best controlling scheme for tons of the genres I play, and controllers are great for a bunch of others. There's actually not that many genres that are improved by full body motion tracking, they're pretty much all first-person games, and they often turn a relaxing gaming session into a workout. It's not that the technology isn't there, it's that the concept it's fundamentally flawed.
