"BuT MeTa aNd TheIr MoNeY ArE GOOD FoR VR!!!!!!!!!"
I warned everyone. I warned everyone back in, like, 2016.
The second I heard Facebook bought Oculus, I knew it'd be ewaste. Fuck zuck and any piece of shit greedy pig like him.
I was so excited about Oculus up until the acquisition.
They’re still doing interesting things I just can’t approach anything Meta does with enthusiasm.
Same. Was planning to buy one and luckily I did not. When Facebook bought the company I lost all interest.
You definitely shouldn't be excited for anything Facebook.
My BIL's friend was an engineer at Oculus and he was so sad when they got bought out. He works at Meta now (golden handcuffs) and says it's ok but not all that fun anymore.
I remember the dev of Frog Fractions was doing a kickstarter back then. After the announcement of Facebook buying Occulus, they put up a new bonus goal of 2 billion: "Buy occulus back"
Not trying to negate what you said, but I honestly don't remember people saying that. I remember people complaining about Oculus being bought.
