My understanding is Quest 2 can run Rift games using the optional link cable. But I'm not sure if that means it will take advantage of higher resolution on Quest 2 or whether X-Plane devs have to do something new.


Irrelevant in my case, as getting any Oculus product is out of the question since introducing the new Facebook account requirements.


Why did you say you are using a Rift and then ask if it ran the flight simulator, only to say it is irrelevant to you out of nowhere?

Because I am

I didn't. I said I use Rift with X-Plane.

What is irrelevant is if Quest runs with X-Plane or not, even if it doesn't.

The original subject of this thread was if VR is a gimmick or not. I initially replied that yeah, for some it's a gimmick and for others there is really no alternative. Now we're plenty off topic here :)

Then why ask if the quest runs it?
