The article argues that Meta Quest headsets remain awkward to share socially because each person needs their own headset to join a multiplayer virtual-reality experience. A games night playing Walkabout Mini Golf highlighted the limitation: although the game offers an appealing way to spend time with friends remotely, VR’s hardware requirement leaves anyone without a headset excluded.

This matters because Meta has positioned Quest devices as accessible, mainstream VR products, but the cost and individual nature of the hardware still hinder spontaneous group use. The author presents Walkabout Mini Golf as a strong social VR game, while suggesting that broader adoption will depend on making multiplayer experiences easier to share beyond existing headset owners.
