Quest is indeed where the money is at. But most (all?) of those games are also on Steam and look a hell of a lot better.

My point is that Meta isn’t really offering anything compared to what you get with other headsets. Sure they were the clear winner in the Quest 2 days but now, not so much.

Perhaps it’s just a lack of marketing then. I’m not aware of anything new since AC. And there didn’t seem to be much before that. Did San Andreas ever come out? I bailed on their platform after a year so if they’re only pushing ads to their own headsets I haven’t seen em.

Steam is where all the good games are. Any headset that doesn’t support it is basically doomed. At least in the adult market.

A super expensive headset with no software didn’t sell well? Who would have thought? Sony did the same shit with the same outcome. Even Meta stopped making games and is now watching their sales tank.

Every company wants to make a headset so they can get rich but not a single one is making software that anyone wants. And they don’t understand the gaming industry apparently so they try to offer productivity and AR bullshit. What people want for a VR headset is games and porn. Why is that so hard to understand?

I’ve witnessed this first hand from the hiring side for an IT position. I was going through resumes with my boss and he straight up said, “I don’t want any hispanics, I want a white guy.” while tossing anything with a hispanic name to the side without even looking beyond that. This was in Orlando in an area with a large hispanic population. The kicker is that my boss was actually hispanic himself!

Shit’s happening even faster than I expected. I’m hoping to be able to migrate before the masses wake up and do the same.

So what if it is? The point is that the whole system is a circus sideshow.
