      I don't think it's about getting rid of them. They've always sold them at a loss. It's about trying to convince people to become part of Zuckerberg's creepy ecosystem.

      Can the promo credit be used across multiple transactions/items? or is it a one-time use credit (like Dine and Discover vouchers), e.g. if I buy something for $53 and apply the credit, I loose the remaining $47 value?

    Besides being a facebook product why is this bad?

    • GunnerMcDagget on 21/11/2021 - 00:40
      +24

      Other than being a Facebook product, it's not bad at all. It's actually great.

      The issue many have is that you have to log in using a Facebook account, and if Facebook detects that you're using a fake account or any account with a different name to your billing, then they can (and often have) effectively brick your Quest 2.

      But they have promised to get better about that, allowing people to use another method to log in. But they haven't stated what that method will be.

      • koganei on 21/11/2021 - 00:49

          They announced it coming and you can manually remove it by making a support request, but you lose social features and if have to reset it for any reason have to do facebook again.

          It's not officially implemented yet basically.

            @Narull: Hey Narull. So you can contact FB and ask them to remove the FB login requirement? Is there any reason not to do this, aside from the two you mentioned?

            My Quest 2 is arriving today so just wondering if I should contact them straight away and get unlinked.

              +2

              @Draycen: You need to contact Oculus support not facebook (even know we know they are the same company), but yeah no difference bar the two I said, clearly you do have to first set it up with facebook but you could then contact Oculus support and ask it to be unlinked, still play the games and such just those two things as I said.

    • Nereosis on 21/11/2021 - 00:49

      It sucks for PCVR because VR developers are now making games exclusively the Quest and not for PC.
      And Facebook.

      It's a great headset for a great price though.

      • gizmomelb on 21/11/2021 - 02:43
        +2

        huh? yes there are quest native ports of a few games.. with lowered visual quality - you can still run it on PC desktop and play games on the PC using this.

        • Gravy on 21/11/2021 - 10:35
          +8

          I think he means that is it taking development resources away from PC VR as the base of Quest owners is now larger and perhaps more profitable and it's easier to just develop for quest?

            -2

            @Gravy: hmm expanding a miniscule niche area for game developers so that more people get into vr gaming, thus allowing more vr games / experiences to be developed in future. Nope, not seeing that as a bad thing.

            • Gravy on 21/11/2021 - 14:12
              +2

              @gizmomelb: I guess the issue is that the graphical quality of the Quest 2 cant compete with PC VR at present although the experience is fantastic and untethered makes a massive difference too. So we may have to take a bit of a backward step graphically for a while until standalone VR headsets catch up.

            • Nereosis on 21/11/2021 - 15:39

              @gizmomelb: Quest VR games are not on PC. That is my point.
              Developers are now developing games exclusively for the quest ecosystem meaning that PCVR is dead.

              You obviously didn't understand my comment so cheers for the downvotes for you being wrong.

      It's a good product; designed by the millenial version of Rupert Murdoch.

      When Zuckerberg controls the digital literal world in a couple decades, we can look at the Quest 2 as the slipping point.

          Both control media empires.

          Both make decisions only with regards to expanding the power and profitability of their media empires.

          Both have allowed right wing extremists to coopt their platforms for profit and power and have given rise to a growing resurgence of bloody minded ignorance and facism around the world, across multiple countries.

          Zuckerberg does so successfully with non-english speaking countries too.

          Murdoch has had longer to play the game or eroding society, but Zuckerberg has been very successful in catching up.

          Zuckerberg is a more insightful technologist, but that isn't a good thing at all when coupled with the callous amorality clearly evident to both himself and Murdoch.

    Good deal, with the upcoming change that you won't have to link Facebook to it even better (you can disconnect it atm via a support ticket but you lose social features and if gotta reset it for some reason gotta relink facebook).

    Anyone buying should get a referral from someone who already has a quest as well, you both get $47 AUD Oculus store credit if ya do (referral gets it instantly, person who referred them has to wait 31 days). https://www.oculus.com/quest-2-referrals/

                  @htc: The referral is a separate thing offered by Oculus when you activate your Quest. So yes I imagine you can still apply the referral as well. Basically you get $47 in your account to spend on games.

              • khaez on 21/11/2021 - 11:29

                @toniyellow: The factory reset thing doesnt work anymore. Once a device has been activated, it can't be used anymore for the referral, even with a new facebook account. Have tried it multiple times before. They closed that loophole.

        Great deal and good call reminding people about the referral system. I've referred a few people as well through the Ozbargain referral system (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/oculus.com) and other methods. Well worth it for the $47 credit.

        Please ensure you don't activate your Quest prior to accepting a referral although I was able to get around it (with difficulty) by resetting the headset by your mileage may vary.

    • Pedsy on 21/11/2021 - 20:54

      • Narull on 21/11/2021 - 20:57
        +1

        Doesn't matter were you buy it from mate, just as long as when you physically get the quest and set it up you register it to the same facebook account you accepted the referral on.

        So go ahead and accept the referral, you then have 30 days to register the quest on the same account.

        It's easy to check if you've accepted the referral just open the link again and it will say you've already accepted a referral on this account.

        The trick some people mess up with is making a separate account just for oculus and then accepting the referral on one account and registering it on another, so just make sure it's the same facebook account when you register the quest to it, you will get your credit instantly (just logout then back in to the store and it will show under the price of things) your friend has to wait 31 days to get his (for some bloody reason).

      Not really, pretty standard game cost (resident Evil 4 is only $50 which is pretty good for Aus) and can take advantage of steam sales if using with a PC link.

    • toniyellow on 21/11/2021 - 02:00

      I've been pretty ozbargain about waiting for sales, and its alright. For an indication:
      * You can see a price history for games here https://odeals.net/platform/quest (USD) and waitlist things for when they are on sale. Their site includes app lab games (still in testing, variable quality) so not all the sales there are deals 
      * The good sales are often posted here https://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/oculus.com
      * This store https://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/oculiumvr.com has good deals on keys but a limited range of games
      * There is typically a big sale for black friday - see last year - https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/586192 and one in the US summer

      Also use a VPN to use the Canadian quest store and many things are cheaper (not always)
