I've been recently using a game on psvr called Rec Room and it is addictive.
I don't usually like talking to strangers online through the Mic but this game/experience encourages it in such a way that you just slowly ease into it. There's a communal area and different rooms to do different games in (escape rooms are my fave).
The point is that I can sooooo see this becoming the norm in the future, once more people adopt these headsets and they become more affordable.
I could really see this site having a basic animated chat room with little basic avatars (virtual reality or otherwise). Members adopting mic's rather than typing. Free flowing conversations that only come through the headphones/speakers when your little avatar is in 'hearing' range of another members avatar.
Who knows maybe in 10 years you'll log on to social swinging and see a little Baldrick Avatar running around with his pet Turnip. Or a little nekkid @meandlis avatar adorning one of them old style headteachers hats on his head
Welcome to the future.
