And where is the hate coming from? […] Batman: Arkham Asylum (2009), Batman: Arkham City (2011), and *Batman: Arkham Knight (2015) *garnering a pretty big following across console.
Then, *Batman: Arkham Shadow *shows up on the radar, a VR-only game that is exclusive to Quest 3—two things that aren’t communicated to the casual viewer until they physically click on the video. This presents not only a bit of a bait-and-switch for gamers hoping for the next long-awaited *Arkham *title, but also an all too real sign that Meta is likely phasing out Quest 2 and Quest Pro later this year.
Fuck meta turning vr into a console. It’s a display device. There’s no reason my rift s or the other quest headsets connected to pc couldn’t play this.
Idk. They’re paying for it and it‘s by far the biggest VR market, many games are only on Quest. PC VR hasn’t been the focus for a while, for many studios.
“VR markets” only exists because of Facebook/Meta
Eh… It certainly has helped and since taken over, but the Index is what really got the ball rolling initially after the Vive and Rift “experiments.”
I‘m not sure if you’re arguing for Meta or against them.
Regardless, they‘ve been investing heavily into VR, the landscape would look very different without that. Ofc they’re only doing that to eventually turn it all into shit, but for now at least, they’re focusing on growing and improving it, even if they loose money every quarter.
