It's good to see someone countering all the dismissive voices around the Metaverse pitch from Facebook(Meta). We are in an interesting phase where large parts of the technerati are having to somewhat rethink their dogma of having written off VR as a failed tech the mid-2010's based on both Facebook's determination here but also the undeniable breakthrough in price / value / performance / ergonomics that the Quest2 brings. This thing is absolutely affordable to the masses and absolutely has a value proposition justifying that level of purchase. We are definitely close to if not over the tipping point where this thing could explode in popularity and Facebook is currently the only game in town.
With Facebook backing it to the hilt there's a real prospect it will leave not just a lot of journalists having to rewrite their viewpoints but many of the major tech companies revisiting their investment in the sector in catchup mode.
