How is this legal? Feels ridiculous to lose games I paid for just because I didn’t migrate my account. Same with the Microsoft minecraft account migration. When I bought my CV1 there was the promise that I would not need a facebook account.

You don’t need a facebook account a meta account was available as an alternative. That’s great right? Much better!!!

I don’t know if meta accounts still exist… The whole migration was a huge mess. The oculus brand was much cooler. I wouldn’t have bought my oculus quest 1 if it had been a facebook product back then.

Facebook has owned oculus since before the CV1, but I agree it was much less intergrated and still felt like a separate brand. I’m definitely biased as fuck, but “oculus” is infinitely better than “meta”. Much better sounding name. I just made a meta account to migrate my oculus account, but I can’t find any way to do it on PC without a quest. I don’t have a quest, so I guess I’m fucked?

Wow I wasn’t aware of that…

You can try to contact them through the oculus meta store live chat. When I migrated they were very helpful.

I was playing Minecraft on and off since the alpha, and refused to upgrade to Microsoft account. I bought computer lego, not a Microsoft tracking app.
