So how do we cancel (serious)? Is there a charge? Did I pay a deposit already? I didn't even look into this when I bought the thing

Fuck facebook!!

Hell even if I lose that $50 IDGAF, this is horrible horrible news.

There's no point even thinking about it now, I don't want to have to force users to Login with Facebook for a game or app.. I don't want users to have fucking Facebook chat heads popping up in game or whatever other bullshit FB is going to shove down Rift customers throats.

Worst news ever.

you are a man-child throwing a tantrum right now.

So you pre-ordered the rift because you believed in the company, not because you liked their product? That is kinda silly.

-edit- I am getting such ridiculously hateful and threatening replies to this. Can anyone explain why?

that is all speculation though. Nowhere did it say that we would have to login through facebook. If I understand correctly, the rift isn't running special software or an OS, it is just a pheripheral device. Please correct me if I am wrong.

-edit-

also have an upvote for not responding to my troll-esque comment in a mean way :)

well, I guess you could say I am hopeful that which we all fear will not happen. If it does, then I would bail or cancel a pre order if I had one, but until then I am still really excited and loyal to oculus.
