		kawsper on July 16, 2024 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: The VR Winter Continues I have an Oculus headset, but just getting going is an ordeal, I have to turn on the goggles, load into MetaOS (or whatever the name is), then load up into PCVR-mode, an then load my game (through Steam). It's like inception, and I am 3 layers deep, and every layer has it own controls.

It’s like how every damn game I load on Steam actually loads a launcher for that company.

They can’t just load you right into the application. They need to own the real estate so they can control the experience and later show you ads.
