That’s kind of a bummer but at least you can use other peripherals if you want. I think the Vive controllers are pretty decent even though they’re a little dated.
I love all the things Valve has done for gaming on Linux.
Lighthouse tracking rocks, I’m never going back to constellation so in that regard it’s an upgrade. Misses in Beat Saber due to tracking errors do not happen. And inside-out is just garbage for anything but the actual head-tracking. My dad has a Quest.
I sorely miss the low weight and ergonomics of the touch controllers. They were brilliant, and though it was more basic, their finger tracking could already do all that you’d want. I’ve not felt it worth the effort to replace the knuckles, unless I can match that.
I think you can use the Vive controllers and lighthouse with the Index, but you can’t use differing models of lighthouses at the same time (which would be pretty cool)

Thanks for the mini-review btw!

The Vive pro wands work with lighthouse 2.0. But they really aren’t that much better to justify getting a pair.
However, apparently pimax has something that looks a LOT like the touch controllers.
These actually give me hope that they could be what I’ve been wanting.
Edit: Holy crap they use the same buttons as the wands, and can pair with the Index HMD!
Edit2: aw, they suck
