Not even if they gave me $200

I would use it for like 1 game on the quest store and more portable/wireless VR on PC. Even though my Index, is superior in almost every way, an easy headset to give to a visitor would be nice.

I probably wouldn't pay $200 for one, but if a friend was getting rid of one for $50-100 I would likely snatch it up.

Lol then why post about it? $200 dollars is a great entry price in VR

[–] nanoUFO@sh.itjust.works 24 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Because I try not to let my personal opinion dictate what I post here. Lots of people do care about this even if I don't, but I couldn't help commenting on it.

Low-key noble of you. Much appreciated.

More like I hate reddit and will do my best to replace r/games and r/pcgaming

It is, but it's not just $200, it's $200 and a Meta account. I'm not making a Meta account, so I'm not buying this.

If it was usable w/o a Meta account, I'd probably get it.

I believe you don’t need an account anymore

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 5 points 7 months ago

If this is accurate, you need one of the following:

  • Facebook account
  • Instagram account
  • Meta account

So, six of one and half a dozen of the other.
