VR. Facebook/Meta have tamed it a little bit but it mostly still feels like wide open country.

Weird, hacky, interesting.

I love it.

Vrchat or something else?

What hardware is needed for playing around with this?

VRchat is a great example. There is also Altspace VR. Though that is PC only. Pavlov VR is an fps but some of the maps are experimental and interesting.

The most cost effective way to get started is a quest 2. With a link cable you can use it as a pcvr headset as well.

It does however require a Facebook account.

One place you can look for some of the more unusual content on the quest is https://sidequestvr.com/

Just to add...Air Link works pretty well for those without a link cable. I've played a few Rift games on my Quest 2 and it's been pretty flawless.

Thank you! I am going to check out the quest 2.
