While quest users can already play steam games using Oculus Link/AirLink or VirtualDesktop (which is a paid app), not having to use metas desktop app sounds like a win to me.
I am also hoping this will finally be an easy way to stream VR games using a Linux system?
Hopefully they add Linux support soon.
Does it not work on Linux?
Edit: Ok, it does not. I just tried it.
If I recall, VR support in Linux is quite spotty as well. I can trust that Valve will invest some time into getting this to work, but a lot of the PC gaming market share is still Windows so it makes sense to support them first.
