In an interview this week with Norm from Tested, Valve hardware engineer Yazan Aldehayyat and product designer Lawrence Yang hinted at the form that headset might take, and a potential key feature.
Let’s go stand-alone PCVR headset
Or just anything to compete with the Quest 3, and provide a viable alternative to the dumpster fire of a near-monopoly that Meta/Facebook has on consumer VR hardware.
The Pico line seems to be a reasonable competitor.
Except its owned by TikTok, so just Chinese Facebook. It’s the same fucking thing
I’d argue it’s even worse, but it’s still nice to have any competitor at least
Damn that’s dark.
Hopefully the fact that they talk so “freely” about their VR plans means that it’s not too far off.
God I hope so
As soon as there’s a decent standalone VR headset not owned my an invasive social media company, I’ll be on board.
