Palmer Luckey, one of the fathers of virtual reality who sold his company Oculus to Facebook for $2 billion, recently weighed in on the new Magic Leap headset. Luckey the new device is a "tragic heap" in his review.

"Their current offering is a tragedy in the classical sense, even more so when you consider how their massive funding and carefully crafted hype sucked all the air out of the room in the AR space," Luckey wrote. "It is less of a functional developer kit and more of a flashy hype vehicle that almost nobody can actually use in a meaningful way, and many of their design decisions seem to be driven by that reality."
