Towards the end of 2018 was my first experience with VR, and I was blown away by it and became very bullish for the technology. When Oculus announced that Facebook accounts would become mandatory, I packed up my CV1 the same day and my heart has ached ever since.<p>I am aware of other devices like Valve Index, but that's still 'VR 1.0' technology. Oculus is already on 'VR 1.977' and Valve isn't going to catch up.<p>There is simply no other player in the industry putting in the kind of money and research that Oculus is. At this rate, they're going to dominate consumer VR and kill the dream for cautious and privacy-conscious people.
