How will this change Valkyrie? Not much if at all.
How this affects the trust placed in small companies to do what large companies don't (I.E. monetize the crap out of everything)? Greatly...

The issue isn't FACEBOOK... it's Occulus selling out their product before they made a single sale while riding on money gained from open crowd funding.

You know... funded by people who believed in these guys... Not so they could design the machine to be used by a large internet mogul in ways we can't predict in the long run. They didn't pledge to Facebook... they pledged to Occulus Rift. That's the issue.



It's like they (unknowingly) funded Judas, who has now dumped the whole concept at the very feet of Evil Rome.

But who gets to hang on the cross if OR fails to ignite because of this ?????

16. Redundant and re-posted threads will be locked.

As a courtesy to other forum users, please search to see if there is a thread already open on the topic you wish to discuss. If so, please place your comments there instead. Multiple threads on the same subject clutter up the forums needlessly, causing good feedback and ideas to be lost. Please keep discussions regarding a topic to a single thread.
