An Oculus Quest 2 costs 300 + tax -- extremely memorable way to have an event in these times. And acts as a collaboration device and an amazing gift going forward.
This is a very cool idea, although it's worth noting that it won't work for some people. Many people get motion sick from VR - I'm not sure of the percentages but I've heard it from several acquaintances.
Edit: Also some people don't have a Facebook account; that seems more common among HN's demographic.
Sure, people like different things, but a device (gift) and then spending time together (co-op games etc) is an awesome idea
