Interesting news considering it wasn't very long ago that HTC executives explained why a Vive price cut was unnecessary. Those reasons seem to still apply today, giving rise to insight that perhaps HTC feels the pressure from the aggressive Oculus pricing in order to remain viable (and alive) in the high-end VR Market.
From E3 2017:

ED does not model a real spacecraft or even plausible spacecraft
If that were true then it wouldn't work perfectly with the same Flight Controllers used for DCS. All you are doing is proving that you don't know what either "spacecraft" nor "plausible" really mean. Besides, the fact that you think Lucky's Tale is a better simulator than Elite Dangerous essentially reveals that you may not really own a Rift, a PC, or even any games.

Do you really think the ability to use a joystick has anything at all to do with whether the physics engine in a game is based on real world physics or not?
It's about as accurate as claiming that a Liquid is a Solid.
The character, Lucky, in the game, Lucky's Tale, does not have pitch, yaw, nor flight thrusts that the player can control to navigate him along the X/Y axis. Something you'd know if you actually played any of these games.
You are still rejecting the appropriate and official definition of "simulation."

I really wonder if I should have got vive instead of oculus.
I really like my oculus but tracking can be a problem with only 2 sensors fron facing setup. I have no way of setting it otherwise.
That said - oculus is said to have better screen, be more comfy, lighter and have better controllers

Lucky's Tale is closer to a flight sim than Elite Dangerous
