Quest 3 owners etc

same pc games dont like working on quest as a pcvr headset.
Eleven table Tennis comes to mind.

it basically depends what your playing.

some games like : space city folk have the mixed reallity mode on quest version vs the pc version beacuse reasons.

also consider using pc games means its not very portable, you cant just pick up and go anywere.

generally i'd say its a personal choice. but i feel the quest store is getting most of the luv and its were the money is.
pc poentially has mod support.

Interested on your experiences with Eleven Table Tennis. I only launched it via Airlink for a few minutes and it seemed ok. Yet to test it with Steamlink or play it at any great length till the lens arrive.
 
Eleven relies on quick reflexes and little lag, every bit you add makes things worse for you.

I love playing it standalone in pass through mode though, brilliant.

Depends on the game in my mind, some things are just fine standalone, or don't gain much with pcvr, but others can benefit massively (obviously some things require a pc regardless).
 
Played a bit of elite dangerous but I don't like the weird shimmering/artifacts on stuff. It's cool but I miss the crispness of playing normally so I just do that instead.

This might be a somewhat dimbo question but given I'll likely only ever play with the MQ3 in my office. Would the consensus be to buy and play via PCVR, where available, as opposed to opting for native Meta games?

The main advantage to buying off Steam is if you get a different headset e.g. PSVR2 or the forthcoming Deckard then you use your library on that. Also the majority of PC versions look better than the native ones as often the native versions are cut down graphically or run at a much lower resolution.
For some games where latency is important, like Beat Saber or Eleven Table Tennis it's better to get the native versions though.

I prefer the standalone versions. There is an additional latency with PCVR due to the MQ3 compression/decompression of the network data that I find just noticeable with timing games like racing and golf. Also personally I find the native versions less trouble, although the PCVR versions always look nicer. Many of the games are cross-buy anyway so you get both versions to try (it will say ion the description if they are).

Ahhh. Cross-buy eh. Not see that term before. I wish there was an icon or easy identifier for that. So this would be buried in the description of the games on Meta Store?

e: Hmm seems cross-buy refers specifically to purchasing games between Rift and Meta store and not PCVR/Steam?!
