In it's current state, I wouldn't recommend spending time on the game unless you are in dire need of social interaction or have friends to keep up with. The new updates have taken the desktop user experience and dumped it in the trash and then set it on fire.

The new action menu is inconvenient at best to sift through for desktop users and frustrating at worst. Much of this does depend on the avatar creator more than anything, but it doesn't make it any better. Now you've often got to sift through three or so different menus in order to actually get to an avatar's emotes, assuming it even has them at all to begin with. Wanted to boop someone on desktop? Jokes on you, you can't get a good 3.0 avatar with emotes at all. If that wasn't enough, when going through the new menu, your camera movement is completely restricted with no way to look or turn when on desktop like you could previously when accessing emojis or emotes.

The latest patch released today has made the experience arguably worse, as the menu has been subdivided into even more submenus and requires you to press the same button you used to open it, which is a little less natural than moving your mouse a centimeter and left clicking. Alot of the stuff mentioned here is minor, but it quickly adds up and is a constant hassle to deal with when trying to interact with other people on desktop. A friend says "Hi!" and waves at you in VR? Well, gotta go through three menus to wave back, by which point they've already turned around and don't see it. The update has also made camera movement between crouching and standing significantly slower, ontop of a prior update which made it slower than normal to begin with, and the change is quite noticable.

The biggest issue so far with the latest patch is that legs on every single avatar appears to have broken for desktop users, and the legs themselves break when attempting to crouch. This is most notable on Kon avatars, where the mere act of crouching completely breaks your legs and causes them to phase inside of your body. It's blatantly broken and gives the impression the devs didn't actually test the new update outside of VR.

TL;DR
Don't waste time on it if you aren't in VR or don't have friends to play it with or keep up with.
