Virtual Reality

I haven't looked into it so I'm just speculating, but I assumed Meta is selling their headsets at a loss to get users into their ecosystem, while Valve would want to make some profit from each sale. Looking at other high end PC VR headsets from Pimax, Varjo and HTC they also tend to be on the pricier side. The Deck was IMO surprisingly cheap, but I guess Valve probably thinks that it'll lead to more games sold on Steam, even though it isn't locked into the platform. Of course it would have been nice if Deckard was cheaper but I think €1200 is reasonable in this day and age. Though personally I think I would've preferred if it didn't have standalone capabilities, if that had made it a few hundred cheaper..
