Frontier needs to stop advertising this game as VR supported for the foresseable future

Now, I know I am quite fond of Odyssey.

Let me make this clear. I have never said it is perfect. It's fun but to say it's perfect would be false.

The news last night on VR makes one thing clear.

FD needs to get that VR supported tag removed immediately. Because unlike a lot of the accusations, that really does start to approach false advertising, now that we know FD is not doing anything beyond bug-fixing current implementation of VR.

Upon further reading just now, Odyssey itself is indeed not advertised as VR supported.

Elite Dangerous: Odyssey on Steam

Disembark, Commander, and leave your mark on the galaxy in Elite Dangerous: Odyssey. Explore distant worlds on foot and expand the frontier of known space.

The base game, however, is, and that really screams deception as I am sure FD wants base game buyers to then buy Odyssey, and the information on the base game page does not make it clear that the expansion does not provide the same level of VR functionality.

Elite Dangerous on Steam
