A handful of people are awaiting the Steam Frame release. Why would they buy a new headset when the next gen is almost out?
Also, people who already own one are less likely to buy another one if theirs works fine.

Also, the Index (the main non-Facebook option) isn't even available for sale anymore, so...

That’ll be me! I’ve been dying to get in on VR but screw Meta. Valve, take my money!

Screw Facebook indeed. I have an index and am waiting patiently for Frame.

I'll be buying one most definitely. Linux first support makes this the best VR headset on the market in my opinion. Cold day in hell i buy anything from meta or some dog shit walled garden console.

Have there been any new headsets recently? Any new big VR titles? A lot of modern headsets are aimed at the wrong market, in my opinion. That is, general or business use.
