I don't think anyone involved in metaverse knows what they're doing though. You look at VR game devs and there's been a ton of incredible, genuine creativity building compelling experiences within the limitations of the platform - there's wide understanding of the limits, what works, what doesn't etc.
I have no idea what Metaverse is supposed to accomplish: what they put out doesn't look good graphically, and with ads like this one there's a whole level of just "who is this even appealing too?"
On some level I think they're stuck because "live a fantasy" in VR has the problem that it's not marketable - I don't need to own virtual property when I can sculpt my own planets or whatever (speaking of, why the hell has the Black and White franchise not been resurrected in VR?)
- PaulHoule 5y agoHorizon Worlds is doomed because it doesn't have any story. I've been studying theme park design and the thing that sticks out is even things like Space Mountain that are basically a thrill ride can be built to have a story that is really compelling. VR experiences like that can be really compelling but an imaginary world that is too much like this one is just a snoozer.
