You'd think, and yet all the gamers I know who own a headset has it gathering dust on the shelf.
You're not wrong, and I'm included in that because I'm a dumbass who bought an Oculus Rift (i.e. not a Vive) some 6 years ago or so, and I've since gone 100% Linux. But man was it a magical upgrade for my sim racing setup. In many ways better than a triple screen setup, but occupies less space.
My headset was extremely immersive for DCS and IL-2, but I could never use the keyboard well enough with it on.
