Steam VR not good enough for ya?

Its probably great but when you need to set up a specific room, it makes it inaccessible for most people

??? You don't need a specific room. Quest doesn't need any beacons or wires.

I don't like Facebook, never had a Facebook account and refused to buy their VR until they removed the Facebook account requirement 2 years ago.

But the hardware is excellent for the price. Facebook is selling the hardware at a loss and making it up in software sales. So you are hurting Facebook by buying their hardware and using it with Steam.

Sorry, was referring to Valve Index. Did not realize you can use SteamVR on on the Quest
