I probably should make a topic-comment:
There were two things I noted when I read the OP and then read Doc's reply. The first one was Jamie's avatar; so clearly she does dress for real, and that whole thing about actuality of self, well,... ladies & gentlemen: Exhibit 'A'. Anyway, she has since further confirmed that she has also had outdoor experience; so that confirmed to me that she wasn't mentioning VR as her only form of expression but as an option in addition to more conventional expressions that she and most here do.
The second one was that I have read here that some have drawn value from 'Second Life', and it sounds as though VR would provide a related experience. So if VR happens to fulfill a need for you, you could be sat next to the most vehemently opposed of SO who does not allow you to do anything, you could put on a headset and draw value during times of few & far between opportunity... especially if the available apps get more and more realistic looking, as the OP said.
I don't do it, but I can envision potential.
