Isn't this simply Second Life writ somewhat larger?
- thrower123 5y agoEverything I've seen looks like PG-13 Second Life. Which sort of removes all the reasons that anybody ever used Second Life...
- justapassenger 5y agoAssuming they deliver (very questionable), it’s like asking that aren’t smartphones simply a telegraph machines?
- michaelt 5y agoThe fact a broad idea has been tried before without success doesn't mean it can't be successful. There were smartphones before the iPhone - like the Nokia Communicator, Compaq iPaq and Palm Treo. They were a niche product - not the market-defining success the iPhone was.
- zabzonk 5y agoActually, Second Life was, in its time, quite successful. I honestly don't see the form factor, or VR, making a comeback though. If I was going to back anything (which I am not) it would be AR.
- angryasian 5y agoBlackberry was incredibly successful. I don't know why people always leave it out of the conversation.
- UncleSlacky 5y agoI've seen it described as "Second Life for boomer aunts".
- zabzonk 5y agoWell, I suppose I'm a "boomer uncle", but I can't see myself going for it. Particularly if it supports that git with his stupid haircut.
- h2odragon 5y agoBut with more AOL type Big Brothering to forestall the Penis Problem.
