No fucking way I'll consider buying one now.

All the shills promised me and other doubters that something like this would never happen. I'm glad I lost all interest in Oculus the moment Facebook bought them.
Hopefully we'll see some solid info on the Deckard this year.

...and there goes my eagerness to buy the Q3. I loathe drm.

So glad I avoid Meta products. I doubt they will be satisfied until they can live sell your data and display ads while you use the product.

Who the fuck are buying shit from google and Facebook? No wonder fucking internet is going to shits

Why are all these companies hell bent on making more e-waste

Aaaaaaaaaand just like that, never buying a Facebook headset. Also because apparently they firmware updated to requiring a Facebook account.

Meh.

I'll go valve index 2.0

Oh cool. Another reason to not buy one.

Sounds pretty on-brand for them.

Remember kids: Meta = cancer

Do everything you can to stop meta from metastasizing.

We've reached a point that technology is not improving, but degrading -- who on earth is going to accept this as is and let third parties acquire random information about them, including their credit card? I mean, if a hacker manages to bust (whatever feature that allows this bs to happen) and forward info to them instead of the meta HQ -- they are going to have a heck of a honeypot.

Welp as someone who cannot maintain a constant internet connection on my devices this is quite the turnoff

Another reason I would never buy a Meta product

I can't imagine what kind of a bad way I'd have to be in mentally to end up buying a Meta product...

Yep. Called it. Again.

Glad I got a Vive.

This will be removed once thousands of little Billy or grandma's can't get that app to work, just like the Facebook requirement. Their support is a joke.

I had an app stuck in the update queue (still no way to see that queue). The recommendation was to do a factory reset. Not open up queue, restart download, not remove from queue - none of those things you can do! Good thing I had sidequest and was able to open up the quest taskmanger on my computer and do a force quit or I would never have been able to download anything again!

No way they let something that does that on purpose everytime the router goes out. Millions of factory resets? No, millions of returns.

I have trigeminal neuralgia, a painful nerve disorder in my face, meaning I can't wear VR headsets. So when I find out that Zuckerberg's "VR is going to change everything" bullshit has yet another issue, I feel smug. Pretty much the only time I can feel smug about trigeminal neuralgia.

Oculus was dead to me the moment it was announced Facebook was purchasing them.

Man am I glad I bought an index after my rift s broke

STEAM DECKERD WHERE ARE YOU

I thought about getting a Quest 2. Glad I didn't.

I've had my quest 2 for a while now but not used it in a bit. Certainly not making me want to play it or get anything new for it.

Have one of the original dk1 units in storage gathering dust. I was so excited for it until they pulled Linux support and Facebook buying them out. Never touched it since.

This doesn't affect using it as a PC VR headset though, does it?

Because that's the only reason I was thinking of waiting for a Quest 3 instead of buying a Pico, anyways.

This effectively kills beat saber custom maps, which is a large part of quest users. Currently, the custom maps mod already requires hoops to be jumped through but this is possibly way worse.

continues call home like Denuvo

I don't think Denuvo does that, I have lots of Denuvo protected games that work just fine offline after I activated them.

But yeah, fuck Facebook.

I've got to get a new VR Helm when I can, but the other options are so pricey
