Good grief,
This may have been the worse article on the Metaverse I have ever read.
How about this —
There’s this thing called VR. Examples include Oculus Rift, Vive and Virtual Gameboy (look it up). For 30 years people have been saying it’s the next big thing even though it’s clunky, awkward and really lacks a good use case for most people who are not VR gamers. And to be clear, just because someone likes computer and video games doesn’t mean they like VR games.
There’s this thing called persistent virtual worlds. Examples include Second Life, World of Warcraft and something called MUDs (look it up). For 30+ years people have been saying it’s the next big thing even though it’s clunky, awkward and really lacks a good use case for most people who are not virtual world gamers. And to be clear, just because someone likes computer and video games doesn’t mean they like persistent virtual world games.
There’s this guy named Mark Zuckerberg. He makes tons money by misusing personal data and selling advertising. He says VR and virtual worlds are the next big thing.
