Developers speaking to the Game Developers Collective seem to think the VR games market has hit a roadblock, even with this year's launch of the Apple Vision Pro.
I bought a second generation of Rift (no idea what model it was, but it was the second retail one, not including the CV1 or whatever dev build it was) - and it was fantastic. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
The moment they forced the use of a Facebook account, it stopped getting used. The visor, controllers, and sensors have been sat in a cupboard for a year or two.
I really should see if it has been jailbroken, or if there’s a way to utilise the Rift features without any Meta bollocks.
they seperated facebook and made it specific to a occulus (meta) account. however at some point of having a meta account, there are methods of outright stripping most of the meta connectivity after granting yourself developer mode and sideloading changes.

They stopped that years ago. I refused to buy one until it worked without Facebook.
Awesome, so it’s usable without an account now?
Honestly, I never checked after I stored it.

Well that’s just fuckin awesome, thank you my friend.
That’ll be a giggle on the weekend 👍
