A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Bonus: it also seems that the episodes have been rolled into the base game. Full details of the anniversary update.

Try the vr mod for this, so much fun

The last PC I built was less than a Valve index. We're in [email protected], I can wait.

With the Meta Quest 3S coming out this holidays you may be able to get a used Quest 2 dirt cheap, and that'll do just fine to play PC games.

I'd rather just not VR if meta has the only reasonably priced set out there.

I mean, up to you. As I said above, it's not like owning one of those means actively supporting Facebook or whatever. I find the whole "engaging with these companies products implies endorsing them" capitalist view of money as support very strange, but I know it's popular these days, particularly in anglo cultures.

But like I said above, it's not like a Meta account used for a Quest used on PC will give Meta any view on your data, or like they would have made any money out of you from a device they built at a massive loss that you're then purchasing used. But hey, you do you. There are other older, crappier headsets you can buy used, but Quest 2 listings out there start at sixty bucks, which is absolutely nuts for what they are.
