I think it's your idea of a joke, I've ripped me off
Sep 17, 2020, 0:36 PDT
I am rift s owner of which I got my rift s in late July of this year with the plan of devlopeing games and experiences with it, I thought that this device only just year old would serve me for such purpose for the next five years or so, I am deeply unhappy that only two months on and you have discontinued both models I had plan to build for.
I don't have the money to replace this item as it was the kindness of my family who scrimp and saved to get me the handset as I wouldn't have had the money to get such a device myself.
I am absolutely horrified that this has happened, I now have a headset that will not live up to such a time line, and would have to fork out an additional £299 for the updated model, of which I don't have such a fund for.
I am beyond livid, due to press releases giving miss leading information in regards to the replacement product being a step down from the quest as a quest light, however this seems to be a quest pro, superseding both quest and rift s.
I feel that some compensation is in order, this is not exceptible behaviour for a market leader to discontinue two perfectly good products in less then two years.
This will once again be a massive setback to myself and the project I am working on, one would of hopped that this would have not have been the case with a company such as Facebook and oculus.

Not two F*#! Were given, they have my money, now go F yourself.
Shocking, I thought Facebook would have had one of the beat customer service teams in the world considering you buisnes is very much focus on the social aspect.I planed on working on a game, I guess I'll build for steam instead, which is a real shame as I could have so easily been done for eather and/or both.
I'm very sorry to say it like this oculus, it's bad, I hope quest 2 servers you well.
But sorry you have lost a fan.
