That technology that generates the scent of games in your environment should be taken more seriously

I’ve been seeing stuff about this for a long time. Several companies have already released this kind of device, but it always flops. I never understood why. I never understood if it’s because the device is expensive, if it’s the refills, if the scents aren’t that good… I just think this would give games really good immersion, especially those where you need to investigate scenes. I mean games like Resident Evil, etc. There are scenes where a simple sniff of the environment would completely change the immersion.

I’m referring to this:

Just imagine what the countryside in GTA V must smell like.

Intriguing, right?

I believe it was really because of the price that it didn’t move forward.
