VRML called, it wants it pointlessness back. /s
I guess this is a "metaverse" play - I like the idea of it but having tried something similar a while ago (albeit with 2D spaces) it seemed kinda pointless. I don't think the vicinity aspects really added anything in a work environment - if anything it took away from modern communication (i.e. you can't just ping someone to chat to them there and then, you had to go and "find" them in the virtual space before you could talk, unlike e.g. slack or whatever)
The only time I've seen it even get close to working was for "work socials" where it was natural to wander around and mix with people or play games together in the space - i.e. where you are not actively trying to get something done.
