I'm interested in buying Adobe Substance Modeler from steam for use with my Quest 2 for use in VR games made with Unity or Unreal. I'm a big "Alyx" fan.
From what I've seen it looks pretty good, and in headset it would look even better, as it would have a third dimension.
This vid came out today. I dont have the pro, just the regular quest 2

No, Steam version is a buggy mess that Adobe refuse to fix and just like any Adobe products, they have the right to remove the software from Steam. You will not get any updated textures, only the ones you find online are available. Zero support. Soon to be outdated because Maya and other software are working on making texturing based easyer or "advance" , Steam Substance will not be compatible in the future, you'll will just be wasting money.
Lastly, VR support is on the NEWER substance, own entirely by Adobe, not on Steam.

Meshes made with these vr headset software are too trash with artifacts because of the low rez, they can bake fine on a 1k or 2k but for 4k is really bad

Also on Steam page:
>No updates for 2023
We are in 2023 dumb fuck, no VR update for you.

This pic rel is only semi true. They never claimed file io in VR. It clearly says in desktop mode only. You switch from desktop to VR mode extremely easily. Furthermore you can do reference images by importing a textured quad. There is a tut on youtube.
Skill issue.

Imagine how good this will all look and feel in VR

The people who have tried it weren't particularly impressed. Maybe in another 20 years.

Is there a way to get medium anymore? I own a oculus quest gen 1 and wanted to try it but there's so little info about how to get your hands on it.

Working in VR on stuff like this isn't as good as it seems.
I love VR and would love if it was nice to work in there, but it just isn't. it's similar to how tablets with screens aren't as good as tablets without. It just gets in the way and doesn't add anything except discomfort.
