Oculus: Deleting the Facebook profile deletes the game library

As pointed out by user Tiwtter Cix, based on the latest notes published by Facebook in relation todeletion of your account on the social platform, those who decide to cancel their profile previously linked to an Oculus account will lose all the purchased products in the catalog. As you can see yourself in the Tweet reported at the bottom of the news, in fact, it clearly reads that “Deleting your Facebook account will also delete your information on Oculus. This includes acquisitions and progress made in games. You will no longer be able to request refunds and you will lose any credit on the Oculus store ". The problem does not arise for those who have registered their own Oculus ID and for users who have purchased a Oculus product prior to Oculus 2, but up to 2023, year in which it will be you must have a Facebook account connected to continue using the viewers.

Oculus has recently launched the viewer on the market Quest 2, making the creation of a Facebook account is mandatory. It was already known that, in the event of suspension of the social account linked to Oculus, the products in the library would be placed on suspension. But of the problem related to the cancellation of the social profile and the contents in the Oculus library we learn the news only today.
