My 12-year old son recently got a quest 2, and loves it. The killer feature is playing games with live audio with his friends. He comes out of the room sweaty and exhilerated.

I've been amazed by it. I had earlier headsets that required a cable to a PC and base stations mounted to the walls. Although beat saber was fun for a while, I pretty much gave up on it.

But the social aspect of the quest 2 seems really great for a 12 year old boy so far.

Plus the health benefits of standing and moving around instead of gaming hunched over the controller from the couch/bed.

The Quest kind of made me give up on PC gaming and pick this up instead.
