This comment is honestly incredibly thought provoking. When you really think about it and the whole of games that just work on Linux now thanks to proton, there really isn't a game outside of games with proprietary anti cheat that don't work, and even then, some do like Apex. There really isn't anything out there keeping me on Windows.
That's kind of the unfortunate thing about VR. The most attainable HMDs are provided by shitty companies like Samsung and Meta who have no incentive to support anything other than Windows. Besides that, high fidelity VR is prohibitively expensive.
There were rumours some time ago of Valve working on a standalone, semi modular VR system. I hope it comes to market, as I'd imagine it'd have the potential to be much more affordable (at some level) than the index.
That's interesting, I have a Samsung Odyssey plus, but I've honestly never used it outside of half life alyx. That was when I was still dual booting with Windows 10, now that I've beaten alyx and realistically there's not a ton of replay value, I don't really have a need for VR.
Sadly Clip Studio just doesn't work on WINE at all so I have to dual boot exclusively for that little shit required in my classes.
