"It's just like people getting together to play retro games."

"I don't wanna get it out and plug it in and put it on my head and move my coffee table out of the way and all of that other stuff that always stops me from playing VR."
"And when they're ready, I'm ready."
"So have you not beaten Half-Life Alyx then?"
"Valve is working on Half-Life 3? I believe that, absolutely."
"What if this turns into like aperture desktop too, right? Like black Mesa desk job."
