A few months back it seemed like they were going to roll out PC compatibility in partnership with valve and that would have been a home run, but instead I guess they chose to lose hundreds of millions ofndollars.
Price was reduced but the value remained the same. Sorry about being pedantic but it’s a pet peeve of mine.
I was under the impression that it was priced competitively for what it was but held down by being locked to PS5 (which is no longer true but the experience on PC is bad).

So, its value has reduced, or was it always overpriced?

A piece of consumer electronics does not exist in a vacuum. Other models from other manufacturers are added and removed, affecting its value.
There was a mystical time not that long past when it was considered standard fare for electronics to become cheaper with age.
In my experience that only happened right before the new model was announced.
if it worked on pc (it does but bad enough that it might as well not) and vr on linux wasn’t still shit I would have bought it full price right away
For what it’s worth I’ve been running everything I can get my hands on in VR under Linux for a year now with no issues. ALVR is a badass project.
Quest 2/3 though, Sony killed first party support for these things so fast it was unreal.
