im confused, its specs are amazing and on paper is more powerful than the meta quest 3, but its mainly being advertised as a streaming headset that goes from your vr spec pc (that is becoming more and more expensive these days for people).

so can it play games natively on the headset or not? i want to get it for my birthday as i see it as a worthy sucessor to my quest 2 that is amazing, but its controllers are drifiting to an unrepairable degree.

imagine no mans sky on it :0

Yes. It's a "streaming first" headset, but you can also run (very basic, not demanding) games on the headset itself.

    The hardware is stronger than the Quest 3, so it should be able to run the same titles. It does lose out a bit because of all of the translation layers tho.

    Yep, just won't be able to run a lot of PCVR titles. It should be able to run native Android games as well, which I believe is what the Quest uses, and the Android XR platform definitely does.
