Your made 3 posts on this forum so far today. All of which have criticised my posts without providing facts of your own.
Because all your posts are negative. That’s fact.
Do you not realise the negative impact you are having on this forum?
Lol
ED at least get the basics right before questioning some one else. Valve don’t have share holders they’re a private company. Unlike Facebook they don’t have to answer to anyone apart from GabeN. It’s his decision alone that’s allowing you to buy and play Alyx on your Oculus headset.

This is hilarious.
Steam aren't 'allowing' me to play their game.
They're providing an opportunity to play it, should I wish to pay £40 or whatever it is.
This is not goodwill. It's commerce.
November in this forum was a peaceful, cordial, constructive, good humoured, balancecd, polite month.
Go figure.
Steam have made a wrapper to allow Oculus HMDs to work on Steam. That decision came from GabeN because he owns Valve.
If it was down to commerce where’s Facebooks wrapper for Vives and Indexes?

People’s arguments are so contradictory it’s hilarious.
Honestly, it really isn't rocket surgery.
So what is it then, brain science?!
I certainly dont champion facebook!.I don’t have anything against Facebook buying Studios but at least let’s be honest about why companies such as Sony and Facebook buy them. Where as Valve release Alyx as an exclusive on the Steam Store, SteamVR supports all headsets. Valve don’t seek to exclude anyone. Sony bought Insomniac to sell games on its exclusive console/ecosystem. But Facebook buy Studios that sell on PC which up until now has always been a open platform and then exclude half the PC VR headsets, the total opposite to what Valve do.
Now if Alyx had of been an Index only title I can only imagine the carnage that decision would of created not only for VR but for PC in general.
So I find it hard to understand why some champion Facebooks business model on exclusivity forcing people to hack their software while at the same time look forward to Alyx taking advantage of Valves inclusiveness. Both can’t be right, right?
As it happens I don’t own Beat Saber nor do I intend to buy it. I don’t own Space Pirate Trainer or Super Hot. But I might buy Pistol Whip over Christmas if I feel bored after Boneworks. Who knows.
They've bought the studio, perhaps because they have something else coming down the pipe that they want as an exclusive. Doesn't really affect Beat Saber, other than you'd now be paying into Facebook coffers if you buy it.
If they could get something like the original FarCry to run in VR I'd lap it up, but I wouldn't bother if it was an Oculus exclusive. Not on Steam, not interested quite frankly.We could see Crytek being one of the top studios again.

Perhaps. But I'm not prepared to part money for something that's relies on a third-party product and where the license does not guaranteed it to work. There are plenty of quality VR games on Steam.If you're not buying any Oculus Store exclusives you're missing out on most of the best VR games available. Particularly now Revive is a thing.
You've either got VR enabled ports like Skyrim VR, Fallout 4 VR and Borderlands 2 VR or games that Facebook have funded and have allowed to be on a competing Store
I do feel you're selling Steam a little short there... Just thinking out loud, as well as what you mentioned, the Truck Simulators, Raw Data, Moss, Five Nights at Freddy's, Poker Stars, Gallery Ep 1 and 2, Doctor Who, Budget Cuts 2, Arizona Sunshine, Pavlov, Doom VFR, the Serious Sam games, Talos Principle, Sairento VR...
Not all Steam exclusives but some are... Like VR Paradise
You can get a list of all Steam VR games sorted by different metrics, I can't remember how.
