It makes sense. But there were studios attempting to make games, until Facebook/Meta snatched them up to build an exclusive platform. Killed VRs momentum.

Most are old, from when the Vive and then the Index arrived. They are janky titles or existing games adapted. Alyx was the first real quality game we got.

The rest are locked behind the shitty Quest and PSVR.

There's plenty of silly little experiences, but the amount of actual games with substance is low.

VRs biggest issue. There's no games. Meta basically killed the segment before it could even get started.

They said they are not subsidizing any of the new hardware.

What a massive loss. Rest in peace, SteamDB.

Remember, by buying EA games you are giving money to a regime that beheads journalists (among many other crimes against humanity).

Yea, it just means you were rolled closer to the front of the line on your 2TB slot.

That's not true. If you reserved for multiple models, then you were rolled randomly in each. Whichever model you rolled best on is the model you can buy.

Steam Frame is not going to be the entry point you think it is.

Yea, I see why they have done it, its a good move! But I still want an insane high end headset :D

I thought that is what it was going to be, both tracking options in a next-level headset!

Yea, its a good alternative, albeit more expensive, to Meta's Quest devices. I'll pick one up, but I do want to see Valve target the high-end again and push the VR space like they did with the Index.

Yeah, dont get me wrong, its nice to see another device in the inside-out space (to avoid fucking Meta), but I think its going to be too expensive to compete with Meta on the main stage.

But I would also have liked to see a takeover of the high end again, to see Valve push the limits.

This basically top of the line VR now: https://store.bigscreenvr.com/products/bigscreen-beyond-2

The Index has fallen behind a lot and a new model would have been amazing.

This is more of a side-grade. I was hoping for an actual Index 2.

I honestly think it should be mandatory. With online shopping these days, a customer should be able to see the exact dimensions of a product before they purchase it.

Valve dont need to be on X lol, anything they post in an official manner on any site, will be immediately shared by news outlets anyway.

Same goes for any large company.

Please Valve, get the fuck off X.

Yea it was a bit of a preach, I'll admit.

I just think people should want higher standards, hardware is so powerful now, there's no excuse for every game not to be targeting 120fps.

Yeah, obviously we shouldn't ban them, just like we shouldn't be requiring ID to visit websites or whatever.
