This. All of my old hardcore MMO buddies were pumped up during the Kickstarter days and during the following development phase.

Once Oculus took FB's "dirty money" though, every single one of them saw the writing on the wall, lost interest, and those with dev kits sold them off.

Gamers don't want social garbage getting in their way and pimping their activity/habits/preferences out to advertisers. Oculus may not have had much of a choice with their burn rate, but taking FB's money certainly didn't win them any friends among the userbase they were targeting from day one.

Same for all of us who just hate Facebook. I got off Facebook back in college and now avoid it like the plague. When they bought Oculus my interest in it died. No way am I using any app or product tied to Facebook in any way.
