Thanks for the answer. It's interesting that it could just be a me thing. I'm not terribly picky about my appearance IRL, but in VR having an avatar I can identify with suddenly becomes very important.

Not sure how you managed to get past the avatar creation if you’re using a Quest

I made a head-avatar years ago when they were first released (probably the 2019-era ones in your link). I don't like it, but it doesn't invoke as much of a reaction in me as the upper-body/full-body avatars I've seen in Horizon ads/videos.

TBH I don't use my Quest 1 much, and when I do it's only for PC Link. It's possible it's got an update pending that will force new social features next time I start it up.

Ah, maybe Quest 1 is the answer, I think it’s no longer getting updates. But whenever/if you end up with these avatars, I’d suggest you try them out and see if you can find a customization you like.
