Debating getting an Oculus Rift

I've been waiting for the consumer version of the Hololens to come out but even if Hololens 2 is the consumer version it looks like it will still be $3k.
I love the idea of not needing hand devices, but it looks like that's still a ways off for the price-point I am sticking to.
I'm looking for something PC-based, versatile, immersive, has plenty of software/titles for it and will be around for a while. The Rift seems to be where I am headed but I would enjoy hearing thoughts on this from those already with VR systems.

Resident Evil 7 is my most unique game experience in my old arse lifetime.
Having said that, I would hold off on the rift unless you see a huge pile of games you want to play.
I bought the PSVR in February of 2017. Haven't had any other game interest me enough to purchase it since 2017. Almost 2 years without another major AAA new release on the PSVR.
Sure there is Skyrim and Fallout 4 but I played those to death. Borderlands 2 is coming out soon. That is the first title to pique my interest since I bought the PSVR.
Most of the haters who are about to enter the thread, have never played VR.
I love it. Took some time to stop getting queasy but it did eventually pass.
There just aren't enough solid new releases to justify the purchase unless you have money burning a hole in your pocket.
Final note, for me it was worth every penny even if I never play another VR game again. VR is absolutely made for Horror.

I have had one for about a year now. It's never been opened. Money well spent IMO.

That would be perfect to use with StarCitizen. It should be released any day now...

Update: I was able to get my hands on one over the holidays and test it out.
Because I have a penchant for just going and buying things I want, I can be hard to buy for. My birthday is coming up and the wife has made it clear she's getting me a Rift for it
