I’m looking to getting back into VR gaming. However, with my switch to Linux, that has made things a little more complicated. I don’t own a Valve Index (although I’ve heard that there are some issues with the Index on Linux), I own a Rift CV1. As far as I’m aware, the Oculus Rift is pretty much completely incompatible with Linux. I do also own both Beat Saber and SUPERHOT VR on the Oculus Store (poor choice of platform, I know).
So, unless there’s something I’ve overlooked, my options are as follows:
- Sell my Rift and stop playing VR games (weird option to choose but it’s an option).
- Sell my Rift and save up to buy a Valve Index (despite its issues)
- Sell my Rift and save up to get a Quest 2 (or 3 when that comes out, although that plays into Metz’s pockets).
- Keep my Rift and do tiny experiments with it (again, weird choice given the title of the post, but it’s an option)
Does anyone have any advice for me here?
I was planning on using the Quest 2 as a standalone headset (unless I’m referring to the wrong headset) detached from my computer.
It will do that fine. Nice little toy to mess with. I spend more time wathing plex on it than anything hence getting the glasses
