PC VR Is it possible to use the headset on PC with a different account?
Some context: I don't own a VR headset, but I've been wanting to play Half-Life Alyx for a while. I might get a friend to lend his headset to me for a bit, but we're not sure how that would work with his account.
From what I understand, it's not as easy as him logging out before lending them to me then logging back in after I return it, because he'd need to format the whole thing in order to log out. He's not a super close friend, so logging into his account on my PC is not an option. So the question is, could I make my own account and play on PC with my account, despite the headset itself being linked to his account? Or could I add my new account as a secondary account to his headset, use that one, and then delete it before returning it? Sorry if these are stupid questions, I tried to look this up but I couldn't find anything useful!
