    Well that’s pretty compelling!

    Ever since the failure of Windows mixed reality, there hasn’t been many non-Meta HMD’s worth buying. At least with inside out tracking.

    Maybe this will finally pressure Valve to lower the price on the venerable Index? Probably not. But one can hope!

            I’m encouraged by the facts that Sony’s game controller linux driver works with no signup, and that this announcement mentions needing a Steam account but says nothing about a PSN account.

            This is disappointing, though:

            some key features, like HDR, headset feedback, eye tracking, adaptive triggers, and haptic feedback (other than rumble), are not available when playing on PC.

            We don’t know. Sony added open source Linux drivers for their gamepads so I guess it’s not completely out of the question.

              Ah ok then it sounds pretty out of context from the previous comment, unless I’m missing something.

              Open drivers would be nice though, of course.

      Probably not until the Deckard comes out. Would be cool if Sony added Linux drivers for the adapter.
