It is obvious that virtual reality is forming a completely new experience. It is creating different things so that people can see the world in a different way. For example, there are some that may use virtual reality so that they can see how the experience will be like. One of the most probable things that will happen is you will feel dizzy and disoriented, especially after you have experienced the virtual world for a long period of time.

Those who normally experience motion sickness and vertigo might not exactly appreciate the world of VR immediately. There are also some people who may experience seizures when they try VR for the first time. If you know that you are prone to seizures, you may want to steer clear of this.

One of the most obvious negative things that people will experience is the fact that they may lose touch with reality. There are some people who have been using VR for a long time, so they tend to forget that there are some small objects that will make them lose their balance and so much more.

There are also some people who feel dizzy and disoriented after using VR for a long time. Those who experience motion sickness and those who experience vertigo might not really appreciate using the VR, but even if you do not encounter these things, there is still a big possibility that you will experience this after a long time.
