Questmas

A contraction of “Meta Quest” referring to Meta’s line of VR Consoles titled the Quest series, and “Christmas” the holiday. Questmas refers to the phenomenon where every Christmas, thousands of parents buy their children VR headsets as presents, which they use unsupervised to join online VR games such as VR chat. As a result, the amount of children in these games skyrockets for the following 1-2 months, and remains permanently higher thereafter. Questmas is foreseen as a tragic event for of-age VR users.

“Hey bro, Questmas is coming up in a week. Let’s enjoy VR while we can before all those parents buy their kids headsets and our games are full of squeakers!”

“Shit’s tragic.”
