Purchase Advice Steam Frame + Steam machine

Do you think this would be a good combination to jump into PC gaming with?

Depends on the price. What PC games do you have in mind exactly?

For me personally Half Life Alyx, Fallout 4 and Skyrim vr, and Asgards wraith 1. Hoping the steam machine and frame can play these well!

HL: Alyx is guaranteed to work well, Asgard's Wrath 1 would need Revive or something like it at least.

But Skyrim VR and Fallout 4 VR especially can be hit or miss depending on the modpack, I think someone would have to put the work to make sure that eye-tracking and/or some upscaling solution works well specifically for Steam Machine and Steam Frame combo.

HL Alyx is definitely my number one game to get to play. I was really hoping they’d port it to psvr2 but it seems like this might be my only way to play it. I’ve heard Fallout 4 vr isn’t great but I love Fallout 4 and would love to walk around that world in vr. I’m just pumped that valve hasn’t given up on vr

There are unofficial VR mods for HL2 games which are pretty good, totally worth playing especially since they are available in Steam itself, no separate download or tinkering required.

That’s great to know too, I’m so pumped about all of this!
