PC VR is a major part of the VR market, so it is important. I would never pay a single cent to Meta, so I have only used PC VR.

If the games ran on the headset directly though, would you still bother with PC VR?

that was the problem with the meta quest. Steam Frame is a proper computer, and you could even use different stores.

I'll play a few games on it directly, which will be convenient, but I also understand that I can't strap a big RTX GPU to my head like the one in my desktop.

They are simply 2 different levels of VR experience. Also I can run Elden Ring in VR on the PC, and a lot of other VR mods.
