Did you use the controllers with Virtual Desktop?
Did you use your hands?
Did you just use a keyboard/mouse that you are really accustomed to using?
Was the latency a killer?
I have 2560x1600 on a late MacBook Pro, Virtual Desktop and Quest 2. Plus I've played coh once. (I know, I know. I got the Mac as a hand-me-down from my daughter.)
Next week I may burn a lot of time figuring out the worst way to play and then stop doing that. (Go back to 2nd worst way, Mac laptop)
I have no trouble using Quest 2 for 6 hours (I have tiny head). Yes, I could probably play a Quest 2 game instead of CoH but the person that I know that actually plays game only plays CoH.
