I have been occasionally trying wayland on plasma and found it generally very good, the DRM Leasing support added for VR headsets might be the thing that finally makes me switch.

Budget cuts 2 is 45% off for those with vr.

Also if you have been longing for the alien isolation mod mothervr to work on Linux - which it sadly doesn't. Then you can console yourself with Adam Isolation, a new game mode in budget cuts 2.

He does seem to randomly spawn behind you though, be prepared! :)

I started to use steam in 2013 when the linux client came out. Up until then I had played what I found in the repos - Alien Arena and the like.

My first purchase was Half life - complete, followed by Sir you are being Hunted. I have been hooked ever since.

VR is absolutely insane, I am officially a convert and it works mostly great on Linux

Quoting: OrkultusI was able to pick up a HTC vive, with everything ready to play for $150 on ebay. Some gaming / vr place was upgrading and selling old headsets.
That's how I started; then added the index headset.... then the index controllers.... and just for completeness the index base stations, but that was only so I could pass on the original kit to my daughter as they where not really required.

The older htc base stations are much quieter than the index base stations that emit a slightly annoying whine.

Have a great time!:grin:
