- toxik 6y agoOculus does this too, you can't use the product _at all_ without registering it with your Facebook account. Should be illegal.
- duckfang 6y agoWell, this is what we get when financed by Scam-a-con Valley companies. Selling hardware to do a thing well is so passe. So we force hardware to the cloud where we can then exert a toll booth for usage.
- ddingus 6y agoI will never, ever own one. And that is the primary reason.
- cwkoss 6y agoThey are also very hostile to the mod system. They really don't want you to play outside of their walled garden. Hardware is nice, but their software decisions completely ruined it. Have a quest 1, will never buy oculus again.
- ipsum2 6y agoNot sure what you mean, SideQuest (sideloading apps and mods, like custom beatsaber songs) has been working for the last 2-3 years. I haven't seen any of this hostility you refer to.
- cwkoss 6y agoThey have released at least two auto-updates which have broken sidequest functionality. First time I had to reinstall sidequest, second time they removed the way to access BMBF and now quest is collecting dust because I'm not faithful that they wont keep automatically installing breaking changes. I guess I'll just turn off autoupdates once I get it working again so they don't break it a third time.
- phonon 6y agoSideQuest has now directly partnered with Oculus, for the new "App Lab". https://www.androidcentral.com/how-find-and-download-app-lab-games-oculus-quest-2 https://www.androidcentral.com/how-find-and-download-app-lab...
