> you'd be restricted to scenarios where you walk on flat ground

I don’t think it’s either surprising or discouraging that flat walking surfaces get worked out before dynamic surfaces.

It might take a while, but it is inevitable.

A rolling wave, with a grippy active surface, could keep you centered while you perceived an upward slope. Seeing and feeling a vista of uneven slopes in VR would be fantastic. I would love Skyrim as a health app!

Also, simple tilting could provide the force feedback of changing speeds.
