- michaelbuckbee 6y agoMost of the VR platforms just aren't supporting Mac b/c of the smaller playerbase, lack of higher end video card support and games support.
- vel0city 6y agoWell, one of the biggest platforms for VR gaming has dropped support for Mac OS. https://www.theverge.com/2020/5/1/21244468/steam-mac-support-end-steamvr-windows-linux https://www.theverge.com/2020/5/1/21244468/steam-mac-support... Coupled with a history of GPU driver support usually being best on Windows and having good GPU support is usually pretty important for VR, its pretty clear why Windows is probably the best platform for VR development at the moment.
