The Star Trek timeline, I just want a holodeck, but they just keep hawking this VR/AR crap :(

If you knew what came next in the ST timeline, you would not wish for it

One must walk before they can run. Probably. I dunno the future.

It's gonna be locked down. Everyone wants a holodeck, but imagine there are so many rules and regs on what you can and can't do in one that it's not even worth it?

Imagine playing GTA, but:

you can't hijack a train full of people
buildings don't take any damage when you fly helicopters into them
people's limbs don't detach when you sever them
you can't make idle small talk with random NPCs without it escalating into violence

Would that be a GTA you would actually play?
