I love what Meta have done to push forward VR originally and to decrease the cost, and increase the player base, but I do think they are dropping the ball on the gaming side now. It's obvious they want to own the AR glasses ecosystem, and that's where they're putting all their efforts.

Meta has closed several studios, including ‘Splosion Man studio Twisted Pixel and Asgard Wrath’s Sanzaru Games | VGC

Developers have started reporting they have been laid off from the company…

Yeah, gaming VR is clearly not a focus for them any more.

Another reason for going Steam Frame, at least modding will be way easier which should keep VR gaming going. Hopefully we'll get all the Dr Beef ports moved across with better graphics and performance.

Sad to hear. VR is screwed if Meta leave it.

If the Steam Frame is over £900 that's not going to save VR either.
