i mean i do rather feel that just a projector in the ceiling would be better, though

Certainly less faff than having everyone wear a headset.

The thing with the headset thing, everyone could be in their own house with a headset as long as you used a standardized board.

I've been doing D&D for years over voice chat with my friends, and this would definitely help with that.

but then we're back to "why bother with AR?", just use tabletop simulator VR which already exists.

I guess it would be nice to be able to just walk to the kitchen and fetch snacks without having to take the headset off but really it's not a big enough deal to matter.

TTS VR is not really that good or immersive, it's a very dated program and we literally tried and stopped using it because of technical issues and a general lack of immersion.
