Their Quest headsets still work fine with Steam… for now

I got a quest 1 for as a gift a couple years back. They frequently automatically installed updates that break mods. Now, my headset is currently bricked and I need to figure out how to factory reset or something to fix it.

Maybe its just indifference, but given facebook's history it feels intentional.

The quest is a console. If you want to use mods without too many issues, you need to use a PC for VR.

Yep, my friend has the Index which I really like. Leaning that direction for my next VR system.

You can still use your Quest with a PC. You don’t need an Index for that.
