Most people should just buy a Quest 3

[-] thejml@lemm.ee 25 points 1 year ago

Honestly, no one should buy a Quest 3, or any other Quest for that matter… Meta doesn’t need any more money or tracking data. PS VR2, Vive Pro 2 or even the Valve Index would be better.

850-1200 vs 650 CAD and it’s stand alone. Yah, not exactly comparable.

Paying with your privacy does that

I'm thinking on buying a Quest to dip into PCVR. I've heard horror stories about the Index's poor QC (which is weird given the Steam Deck's done me well so far) and PSVR2 isn't compatible with PC. Yes, iVRy exists but that driver is in development and the developer basically said "just buy a Quest if you want a cheap PC VR headset".

For PCVR only you can get a Quest 2 for $250. Worth it.

Yeah I'm looking at that as well. Friend of mine does say if you want to do full-body tracking the Quest is a pain to do it with, but I'm not deep in PCVR right now haha.
