There are great VR games on PC. Problem is Meta flooded the market with their standalone headsets that can only play very simple small games, and shifted the perception that that's what VR is.
You can use a quest with steam VR, it’s not as jailed as people think but without linking to a PC it is pretty content poor. There are good games for VR but nothing that really screams “This is worth the extra $300+ to get a headset to play it”. At least not to me, someone who had a Vive and currently has a quest 3.
Absolutely you can use it with a PC, what I'm saying is that most people don't, and also because of that companies release Quest exclusive games that are bad. Just recently Civilisation VII was announced for VR. What an amazing game it could be, but just look yourself: https://www.meta.com/en-gb/experiences/sid-meiers-civilization-vii-vr/5781689118524197/ Even in the official store images, it looks atrocious and nowhere near what the flat version looks like (and how it could look on PC). And then people will see that and think this is what VR has to offer.
I got an Index in 2019 and I'm using it to this day, definitely got my money's worth of gaming in that time.
