Ah yes, Beat Saber. One of the most popular VR titles to date. What's there to talk about?

Gameplay:
The gameplay is fantastic, it's basically just slashing at blocks in time of the music and the direction it tells you to slice. There really isn't much to it. The difficulty curve isn't that steep, and compared to most rhythm games you'll find yourself learning the game extremely quick after a couple hours, you just gotta dedicate yourself into it. Now of course, there's some flaws to it as well, such as the fact that people with small play spaces can't really have the space to flail their arms around and duck, so some players are limited in that regard, additionally, controllers could be a bad issue for some as well, being the fact that your hand could potentially cramp up (then again it could just be me with my Oculus Touch controllers as well)
The Song List:
The default song list is decent, you got yourself a good amount of songs ranging from Originals to Licensed music like POP/STARS from K/DA to Crab Rave, even featuring one of the most prominent Musicians from Japan, Camellia (Senpai, notice meeee). There is DLC in the game, and while not completely mandatory, you got yourself a fair amount of recognizable names such as Panic! At The Disco, Green Day, Imagine Dragons, and even some songs from the Monstercat Label.
However, I find that the song list gets quite...stale after a while. Which...leads me to the next topic.
Mods:
It's essential at this point to have mods, I won't go too detailed about 'em. So to keep this short, let's just say they could complete change the experience for you and others.

Verdict:
Beat Saber is highly recommended for both Rhythm Gamers and people who own a VR headset and are looking for a game that could help waste hours on end trying to beat your own highscore for hours on end. Btw, drink water and stretch before you play :)
