    Does Steam really succeed with VR though? I don’t know anyone with a VR headset and I know a lot of people who use Steam.

      I wish I spent more when I did… I bought the oculus rift, then some shit company bought it and tried to claim the hardware wasn’t mine, and tried to extort money from me. it sits on the floor doing nothing now. a reminder that corpos are never to be trusted

      It’s niche. Many people get motion sick in VR and having Meta as the only affordable option pretty much throttles VR.

      HI! HTC Vive OG owner here since 2018/19, over 100 VR titles, I know quite a few others with different headsets from Index to Meta to pico, also know at least 3 looking forward to Steam Frame. Tho it is still too niche and these stupid memory prices are going to hurt us bad. Under windows steamVR is great, under linux steamVR is good and getting better all the time, in the meantime there is WLX-Overlay.
