Fair enough, substitute “the general consensus” there. I don’t mean you as an individual specifically. You all. English really needs an official plural for the second person pronoun.
Your computer having a local account is fair enough, although MS is trying to kill that too and I genuinely am not sure if it’s mandatory on Macs. In any case, the comparison here is with gaming consoles or, yeah, with Steam itself, in that the Quest isn’t a display device, it is a full-on integrated platform. There’s a store in there, it’s digital only, so you can’t really do much with it without a login, just like you can’t do much with a PSVR or an Index without a login.
Again, people are displacing the old rage about there being a unified Facebook login tied to your real name, which was fair, with there being a login at all, which was never the point. Oculus required a login before Facebook stepped in and there is currently a separate login for Quest devices.
No no, I was saying the account for my computer is local only. Steam, being a separate application, makes sense to have a separate login.
And I don’t remember anything differently… I don’t really have a horse in this race, just playing devil’s advocate.
