      I don’t really regret it, because it was a truly awesome experience while it was fresh, and I probably sunk hundreds of hours into it over the pandemic. But yeah, it does get old surprisingly quickly, and there are literally no new games for it that aren’t arcade-style trash from the past few years.

      Maybe when standalones get powerful enough that they can run “real” games, it’ll kickoff again, but I don’t think I’ve put on my headset in months at this point, and there’s nothing on the horizon that’s likely to make me grab it again any time soon
