  There is demand, but there are no truly great headsets. Vision can barely match quest and quest has way more contect, but it’s heavy and they seem to be slowly dropping PCVR support. HTC seems out of the game. Valve might come up with something in the future, but for now it’s just… barely an improvement in video quality from my PCVR headset from like 8 years ago.

  I hope China enters the game.

    And it’s all proprietary walled garden. I have no interest in VR if it’s not free/libre.

    Bit late to the party but there’s Pico if you want China to enter VR competition. I changed from Quest 2 to Pico 4 Ultra and I don’t regret it. Almost all the games I had on the Quest are also available for Pico and if that is not enough there’s still the possibility to use it as PC headset.
