This is what happens when you stop focusing on building immersive VR gaming experiences and go towards mobile quality graphics and stupid metaverse / workplace productivity improvements. When will these companies ever learn to focus on the games? Sony learned it with the PS3, MS with the Xbone, and now Meta.

I am a VR fanatic but even I won't buy a Quest 3 because there's just no quality VR games that make me want to upgrade. The fact that no game has yet matched Half-Life: Alyx in terms of immersiveness is just sad.

Lone echo was pretty amazing. and still is

You mean the Lone Echo series and Echo VR? Yeah I thoroughly enjoyed those games, but those were released so long ago. Definitely up there with HL: Alyx for me though.
