haha, well if you put it that way.I bought a Rift, a Quest 2 and 3, plus all the accessories just to play one game. So don't feel too bad about it.
I play a little of everything tbh, I think i can live without the pancake lens, I cant miss what I'be not had I guess, Saving £200 seems a no brainer.You're right in that the main difference is the pancake lenses which give almost edge to edge clarity, but it depends on what games or sims you play. If you're into dark atmospheric or space sim games then OLED is still very good.
Think you sold me on it, I'll pick one up while the Batman offer is on.For your use case the 3S is still a capable headset, and the fact that it's also wireless is another winning feature.
